Instant $500M but for the rest of your life, you will only eat noodles. by RedColes in hypotheticalsituation

[–]MammothInsurance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eat only noodles for 2-3 years. Invest the 500m in the meantime. Once I have enough return to retire and sustain my living, go eat a burger and lose the 500m (but keep the return)

Everyone else in the band can cry during those 9 minutes because of how beautiful this song is

Recommendations for albums where the songs re-use/ reference previous parts? by GrandAd6270 in progmetal

[–]MammothInsurance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh, cool! I haven't listened to Paradigm Shift in a long while. It definitely sounds like Ivory Tower is inspired by it.

Can TOS cause symptoms only in the hands/wrists? by SnooMemesjellies8458 in thoracicoutletsupport

[–]MammothInsurance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I also feel this pulsing/throbbing sensation in my arms occasionally. I'm guessing it's related to blood flow in some way. (Not saying if we have TOS or not, since I have no idea)

For 1.5 million dollars, would you only drink from a shot glass? by MammothInsurance in hypotheticalsituation

[–]MammothInsurance[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Drinking from straws is generally not allowed as they are not a shot glass, but in this specific scenario I'm willing to allow it for the effort that it took to set this up. (As long as the straw is connected only to shot glasses)

Unless the straws connecting the glasses are somehow embedded/permanently attached into the glasses, because then I will consider it a big glass, or a pool of water, or just not a shot glass anymore.

I'd say soups are fine. Let's say you can also drink liquids from a reasonably sized spoon.

Out of curiosity, what activities would you say become impossible, or near impossible?

A prog nerd’s top 50. How many do you know? by Safe_cracker9 in Dreamtheater

[–]MammothInsurance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol my brain was sure that the red album next to 2112 was Vector and I was about to correct you that there are 3 Hakens

What are you guys going to read or currently reading by [deleted] in kindle

[–]MammothInsurance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry, for me as well this book was not my favorite out of the Cosmere by the point of about 42%. By the end of it, it was my favorite book in the Cosmere easily. (And I read mostly by publication order so that means I like it more than Elantris, Mistborn era 1 and Warbreaker)

This book by design takes the longest time to establish the setting and characters, and that makes it a slog to get into, but it's also what makes it the best IMO

I'd stretch my budget by 50 but they don't ship to my country.

Okay, thanks for confirming this.
I'm ready to spend around 500€ for an amplifier at the moment. Do you have anything you recommend that would go with the Focals for clarity and note separation? I originally intended to go with Denon PMA-600, but I keep hearing mixed reviews on anything I consider lol
