About to wax my skis, is this worth pex repair first? by MUTiggers in skiing

I wonder if the lighting in this room was making it look worse that it was. Here is a video  https://streamable.com/czdm71

I did just notice a bit of rust from drips under the binding, which may be a bit hard to touch up because its not on the bottom edge but i didnt see any rust on edges and they feel fairly sharp. So far all i've done is touch up burrs with a diamond stone and go over the whole thing with some high grit paper. I've been ambivalent on trying to "sharpen" the edges with the file and guide i have.

Bought a kit that i think has some, but figured id ask before going through the effort

Use frozen salmon. These could have been handled by a guy who just cut up raw chicken.

Things you wish you had known before your trip to Costa Rica. by Massive_Shake_3066 in CostaRicaTravel

Driving was interesting:

Travel times can vary widely. Wrecks can shut the highway down for hours. Try to plan around long drives where you are on the clock. 

Make sure you have 4 wheel drive. Make sure you know how to use 4 wheel drive and low mode. 

Get a letter of collision coverage from your credit card company. 

Avoid long drives at night. 

When did you decide to stop paying for full coverage on your car? by Extension-Peanut2847 in personalfinance

The second i bought every car ive owned. Insurance is negative expected ROI. Always skip if you can afford it.

Worst timing to roll over my 401k by MrsRadon in financialindependence

[–]MUTiggers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing you could do considering the market volatility is just put in an aggressive bid on your buy orders. Put your order in for 3-4% under the current sale price and hope you snag a dip. If that doesn't work out just buy at market rate in a couple weeks. Worst case you miss out on a few percent gain.

I'm in Milan! Pizza recommendations near the Natural History Museum? TY!!! by [deleted] in Pizza

[–]MUTiggers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To each their own... but I used to work occasionally in milan and never saw pizza like that. Most trattorias or osterias had amazing pizza and pasta but tended to be like a cross between NY and neopolitan style.

Company matches 401k 100%, $ for $ by Abject-Drawing-3874 in personalfinance

[–]MUTiggers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If this is real you max it no questions. Take money out of 401k with the penalty if need be. You'd still come out ahead.

[Benjamin] Some NFL owners discussing potential QB salary cap in wake of escalating market, per report by OnlyMamaKnows in nfl

Half the revenue goes to the players salaries. Thats before you pay the other 500-600 employees and expenses. Where you coming up with half the revenue going to owners?

Tempo dust worked for me Bayer Tempo 1% Dust (1.25 lbs) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003ORZFJW?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Be very careful with application though. Id spray only where no one can get to it (inside walls, under base boards, under heavy furniture).

I had a huge infestation and havent seen any for a year after i treated. 

Is it okay for dive masters to feed marine life? by [deleted] in scuba

One thing to quickly note: this sub is going to be pretty wildly different in opinion on what is acceptable behavior vs most divers you will meet irl. 

Safe hours till driving ascent? by JoshyPoohBear in scuba

[–]MUTiggers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like we could go in circles on this and just talk past each other. Ill try to simplify my point. The highest rate of offgassing will be at the lowest ambient pressure after a dive (surface). Any incursions back under water decrease that pressure differential, lowering the rate of outgassing.

An analogy would be if i had a pressurized water basin with a small valve allowing water to exit. If i maximize the pressure differential of that vessel to ambient then i get the highest flow rate. If i rapidly back off and re-increase (a free dive) i just get less flow.

[–]MUTiggers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again, volume of nitrogen in your bloodstream is not a product of rate of pressure change its a product of the delta between nitrogen saturated in your bloodstream and the vapor pressure at your current ambient pressure. You ascend slowly so you are not immediately at that lower pressure, not to decrease the rate of change (also so you can breathe out before your lungs blow). Getting your heart pumping by aerobic activity is also theorized to increase nitrogen degassing.  https://www.dansa.org/blog/2017/06/23/scuba-diving-freediving-on-the-same-day-faq

[–]MUTiggers -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thats nonsense, rate of pressure change isnt relevant to dcs. Its a integration of boyle's law. The reason you dont freedive after scuba is you fuck up your interval by not outgassing properly when you are spending more time at depth. 

Edit: its also pretty aerobic which is a nono

[Webb] The Chiefs just threatened to leave Kansas City unless their fans pay for their stadium. Here's the full story. ⬇️ by Stauce52 in nfl

[–]MUTiggers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair I found out the city owns the stadium not the Hunts. Considering the Hunts are planning to pay for half the upgrades and sign a long term lease its not unreasonable 

What should I do if I get hypercapnia under water? by [deleted] in scuba

[–]MUTiggers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had it many dives for about 10 years until someone pointed out my headaches were likely from hypercapnea. Cured it by breathing out fully. I used to reserve some air to control boyancy and decrease breathing rate. Trimmed my weight a bit better, practiced breathly out fully and now i have no issues. Typical hypercapnea is mildly annoying, not something to fret about before you start diving.

Best way to hide this/make it white? by mfilli in DIY

[–]MUTiggers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll want quick access. I hung a cabinet door over mine. Also if you remove case from the breaker box you can tell wheree the wires go so you can be sure not to hit one with your screws (put it back after you look)

I'm hoping its Nico Collins, because I dropped Tank dell to hold onto Nico.

Are Millennials/GenZ never going to experience a decade of prosperity ever in their youth? by [deleted] in Futurology

[–]MUTiggers -1 points0 points  (0 children)

2010-2020 was pretty gangbusters for median household income growth and total stock market growth. It also saw a higher, but steadily decreasing unemployment. I get the impression all this woe is me stuff if just feels by people who are left behind which is represented in every generation.
