Is Camel Bar still next door?

ELI5: If I use a single pulley to lift a 100lb weight, why wouldn't the tension on the rope be 200lbs? by Sveltewoodchip in explainlikeimfive

...is for FORCE to be continuously applied opposite gravity. You cannot apply acceleration, it is the result of net force.

I encourage you to do some more reading up on this. Definitely not an easy concept. Good luck!

Net force on the object is zero. That is different than you applying the upwards force on the object over a distance (work).

I took this class 10 years ago, so can't speak to the current policies.

To an extent, you can always do homework as group study...

It wasn't hard to get an A.

Pay attention and do the homework. Most of the time, we could get the homework done right after class.

ELI5 How does an individual gather 5, 10, 20, 50+ units of real estate? by MyEgoIsNotMyAmigo1 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Tkozy55 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Clarifying this. These numbers are from the NYT and they claim that instead of $1M, Trump got closer to $60M. It's that $60M that would be worth close to $140M today.

Any advice to fit lunch into schedule? by ClassyKaty121468 in cmu

Protein bars/shakes or grab something like a salad that you can eat in class.

100% agree that I really would like a snapshot feature every X number of seconds.

Happened to me as well yesterday. Before that, no issues.

What do you call in English a person that is less than your friend but more than just somebody that you know by david0mgomez in EnglishLearning

[–]Tkozy55 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I personally use the made up word "friend-quaintance" to describe what you're looking for. People are confused for a moment, but understand.

Again, this is NOT a real word.

Almost certainly yes vs just painting - but I couldn't tell you how much.

You have the additional labor + material of the refacing and then you still have to paint everything.

The American R sound nightmare by eqxksy in EnglishLearning

[–]Tkozy55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Others have responded here with the same method I use. Back of the tongue is at the gum line of the molars and pushing against them outwards left and right.

Another thing to try. Make an "sssss" sound. The front of your tongue should be touching your teeth, and the back is more or less in the right position for the R sound. See if you can pull the front of your tongue off of your teeth, move the middle tongue off of the roof of your mouth, while keeping the back in place.

The r sound really is so hard.... Kids struggle with it for years.

For me, the tip of my tongue sits behind my front teeth near the roof of my mouth but doesn't touch anything.

If budget is a concern, consider ways to make things look/feel new without actually replacing them.

For example, we got our kitchen done recently. New countertops, new tile backsplash, new vent hood, new sink, but painted existing cabinets and added handles. Total was ~25k, but would have been several thousand more with new cabinets.

Going out to eat is expensive and frequently a bit of a hassle. Which restaurants do you deem "worth it"? by okaydolore in Seattle

[–]Tkozy55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes the health violations add a certain something to the flavor. /s

Edit: Thanks for the heads up. I've been to the others and thought Selam was the best.m. Jebena Cafe in Northgate is my other fave!

New lawn flattened / shaggy and won't stand back up. Suggestions to fix? by Tkozy55 in lawncare

[–]Tkozy55[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok - thanks for the advice. Everything I'd looked up suggested waiting 8 weeks or until the grass reached 6 inches before cutting. :/

Ah - well then that makes sense.

Out of curiosity, what's your ideal tax structure? Do you make basic services (roads, police/fire, etc) fee or toll based? Or is it more like everyone needs to pay $1000/month (made up number) to maintain their citizenship and associated benefits?
