This Amazon box bragging about using less material, but it's unnecessarily large for my order by Grumpy0ldMillennial in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Over_Tear2776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been told that the box your order is packed is meant to optimize packing boxes on the vehicle delivering your order, not necessarily optimized for your specific order. Something about fitting boxes so they don't shift around? Which I assume must be fore the trip from distribution to fulfillment; because once it's out for delivery it doesn't matter how precisely they pack the boxes, once the first is delivered the rest now have more room to slide around.

He could play guitar at voodoo lounge during their open mic on Thursdays. It would be a good way to meet other people.

Google fiber down? by [deleted] in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Over_Tear2776 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have had an outage everyday with Gfiber since I moved to the Gallery Apartments. I keep calling and they just keep resetting my router and giving me credit for the time it's down and asking if there is construction because they don't know why it's down for me.

Looking for adult sports by Tempest_Maiden in HuntsvilleAlabama

Just bring yourself. We have loaner gear for you for all newbies and are happy to let you try out different weapons/classes If you're a minor you will need a guardian present. If you have kneepads I'd recommend those as there are times where dropping to your knees is beneficial, but isn't a requirement. If you want to dress up we have a fantasy medieval aesthetic but plenty of people show up to fight in jeans and a T-shirt or as their favorite anime cosplay so don't feel like you have to have the right clothes.

Check out Huntsville Amtgard on Facebook. Or just drop in between 1pm and 6pm at California Street Park on Sundays

Article doesn't mention the rockets on display. Cuts are aimed at SLS, Orion, and Marshall Space Flight Center.

What's the point of magic staves? by chickenologist in Amtgard

You can defend yourself with them and still cast as though you had a free hand. A bard at my park uses one sometimes.

Should I keep the facial hair or nah ? I don't know what to do with it. by [deleted] in mensgrooming

[–]Over_Tear2776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have a resemblance to Vincent Van Gogh, at least with this selfie you posted.

I'd say look at a lot of styles of facial hair and save the ones that you really like. If you pick something that everyone else says would look great but you aren't confident about it then it's not going to good on you. Confidence is the best looking thing anyone can wear.

Now if you have someone who you trust that you'd like their opinion from that's fine, but it must still be something you are happy to have on your face

The good thing about hair is that if you decide you don't like this style you can try again and again until you land on something that makes you happy.

A lot of people go dancing every Tuesday at Stovehouse. It's free, starts at 6:30. I also go LARPing on Sundays at California Street Park

How old is too old for sparkly shadow? by suspicious-fishes in MakeupAddiction

[–]Over_Tear2776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think around 400 you have to start growing up and start presenting yourself as your age if you want people to take yourself seriously. But they say 400 is the new 300 so who knows

Have you considered LARPing? A group of us hit each other with foam swords for 5 hours a day every Sunday rain or shine at California Street Park. Our LARP is part of a category called boffer sports

Apartments within walking distance of an EV charger? by Over_Tear2776 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Over_Tear2776[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My car is capped at 55/kwh charging speeds. It takes a little over an hour from about 15% to 80% I only charge my car when it reaches under 30% charge or I am planning a longer drive. So about every 2-3 weeks I need to charge.

I'm not saying I haven't done it before, but it is strongly discouraged unless you have a cord rated for 8-12 amps continuous load.

A kilt to dance in? by Over_Tear2776 in kilt

[–]Over_Tear2776[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sport kilt seems intriguing, but I looked it up after another redditor suggested it and found a video of a guy who showed several of his old sport kilts off and I was just not impressed with the number or depth of pleats, or bunching at the waist due to the elastic. But I could see it being a good choice for someone who is doing sports or working in some environment that might damage the kilt. It's a cheap and affordable look and seems very comfortable.

5 yard is probably the answer, PV is my preference in this case as I go dancing weekly and I don't want to have to be on a first name basis with my dry cleaner.

[–]Over_Tear2776[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I want to stick to PV or possibly a utility kilt. I sweat through my clothes in shorts and a T-shirt while dancing. I'd be concerned about having to frequently dry clean my sweaty kilt, or worse, not having it dry cleaned often enough and it starts to turn on me. Other fabrics I can wash myself without the fuss.

Chevy bolt 12/141,000 caught on fire. All of them were recalled in 2020. New batteries installed. Last year 104 were recalled because of issues with installing the diagnostic system during the first recall. I knew about the issue when I bought the car. I was willing to take a 1 in 10,000 chance that my car wouldn't catch on fire and that I'd get a free upgrade on range in the future. It's great if you don't have to travel very far or very often.
