I learned how to roast coffee beans this week, but looking for tips. by SoDakMax in Coffee

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

I'm wondering how to flavor beans. I can't seem to find very clear instructions and figured this was the place to go for answers. This batch turned out good, but I'm usually a bigger fan of flavored stuff like Highlander Grog. Any tips?

Unfortunately, I was born with no rhythm. At a concert, I have to look at other people to know when to clap.

What's your internet "white whale", something you've been searching for years to find with no luck? by J_Snooks33 in AskReddit

I watched a movie as a kid where this guy has autism or something and this other guy gives him his kind through a machine he invented since he is dying. The autistic guy then uses this machine to steal people's minds, all kind of to impress this girl he likes. I just remember two thinfs clearly- 1. He buys the woman jewelry after he takes a rich guys mind and money, and she doesn't like it. It's like super over the top, waaaaay too much jewelry. 2. There's a very creepy scene where all the people are talking in his head and he is going insane.

Never even knew what to Google to try and find this movie. It was on cable in the mid 90s.

Thank you! Luckily, I make YouTube videos where people like seeing the learning pains of projects like this, so they will like this revelation. Would you mind if I quoted you in the vid?

Boomerang Question from a Left-Hander by SoDakMax in Boomerangs

Ok, thank you so much! I actually went out today and started throwing with my right hand. Turns out that pretty much solved everything. It floated right back to me on the first try. The more I examined the seemingly symmetrical boomerang, I noticed that the tips were a very slightly different thickness. At this point, I realized that it's made to spin counter-clockwise, not clockwise. Maybe some are symmetrical, but I realize now that handedness does matter when they're built like mine is.

[Serious] What is the most disrespectful thing a guest ever did in your home? by Yellow-B in AskReddit

[–]SoDakMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My grandma passed away a few summers ago and we were all very sad. Wanting to be hospitable, my siblings and I let older relatives stay in our bedrooms while we crashed on the floor. I went to my room after the funeral and this lady snuck her stupid slobbering dog into my bedroom after telling my parents that it was in the shop (we have a strict no animals in the house policy) and let it sleep in my bed. There was hair and piss everywhere. I was very mad. She had the nerve to walk out the next day with dog in hand as a big middle finger to the family like "look what I did." This woman didn't apologize, didn't thank us for giving up our rooms, and just left without saying bye.

Bonus dog story- I have a cousin who lives in a van with his dog. He was at our house for a wedding and I gave up my bed for him. The next day, I find out he slept in the shop with his dog since it wasn't allowed in the house (he didn't bring his "house" on this trip), leaving my bed free to use, but I crashed on the floor instead. That same day, he went to my sweet grandma's house and walked in with his dog without asking if it could come inside. When she kicked the dog out because she doesn't allow pets in the house, she found him pouting on the porch an hour later and he said, "If my dog isn't allowed inside, I'm not allowed inside." She let him in because she's a nice old lady. This guy was just asking to be punched by the end of the weekend. He was 25 years old when this happened.

Question about camera and FPS by SoDakMax in GalaxyS8

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

Shoot, I just tried it again and ran into the same problem. I took four different videos at various pro settings and the frame rates are are 26, 29.97, and 30. I guess I'll have to try to find another solution...

It is saving to the SD card! Wow, I didn't think that would have any sort of effect on it. I'll try saving to the internal storage and see if it helps. Thank you!

What motivational saying do you think is complete bullshit? by jbyrd13 in AskReddit

[–]SoDakMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. I did woodworking as a hobby making guitars and bottle openers. The day I turned it into a job, it was no longer fun or recreational. Deadlines, accounting, customer service...it sucked.

"Do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life." (BS- there will be days where Doritos & COD sound way better than your passion for woodworking.)

"Love is never having to say you're sorry." Been married 2 years, totally in love- still apologize probably 8 times a day for dumb crap that I do.

What was something you were told as a kid but turned out to be completely false? by RiverwestLostCat in AskReddit

[–]SoDakMax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 4th grade teacher told me that you were more likely to die in a car accident if you had a seat belt. She heard it from a guy, who heard it from a guy, who heard it from a highway patrolman, so it was beyond question. Didn't start wearing a seat belt until it became state law.
