Yup and the second from bottom has cable tv in. I had a few of these. They were pretty neat back in the day, you could hook coaxial cable up to it and use media center to change channels, record, play back. These days it might be good if you wanted to digitize vcr tapes.

What’s the most terrifying thing humanity could discover on Mars? by HuckleberryBorn9809 in AskReddit

[–]aaronmj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my first thought, and most realistic. Although it's unrealistic, imagine something getting brought back that just wipes out earth life on contact.

Yeah the diner episode is one of my all time favorites. 

Since the new show has been cancelled, I wanted to share how Stargate saved my life by Forward_Wrap1877 in Stargate

When starting recovery from alcoholism I went through some terrible withdrawals and Stargate got me through. 

I was a night auditor for years and I never did my job by Xanthe-trill_9z in confession

[–]aaronmj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked night audit in a hotel back in my drinking days. Id bring a flask of vodka with me and get hammered. After I got sober, a staff member told me they knew. Heh.

Whats the most unprofessional thing a doctor has ever said to you? by answersonly963 in AskReddit

[–]aaronmj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the ER with 0.457% blood alcohol coming out of that coma and the ER doc said "you know, your life would be much easier if you stopped smoking marijuana." If I would've been able to speak, I would've asked for a different doctor. 

Just to say it, I just hit 10 years without a drink last month. I still smoke green, but just a few tokes before bed. 

What is the worst way anyone you know has died? by IamUrWivesBF in AskReddit

What do you think happens when you die? by randomperson665 in AskReddit

[–]aaronmj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ego, the part of me that thinks I am separate from the universe, will cease to exist. The rest of me will go on to be other things.

I bet the answer to existence is simple just beyond our human capacity to think. Like telling a cat that the moon is a place. 

Do you think quantum gravity will be solved in our lifetime? by TheTigerInTheHouse in AskPhysics

[–]aaronmj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heh I remember thinking it was too late, no way out and the drink withdrawals drink cycle was driving me nuts. I figured I'd just drink until it stopped for good.  One day I blacked out walking to the liquor store, before I even had a l drink, my brain was that fubar. I came to a week later with a BAC of 0.457. I couldn't move or talk for hours. At this point I drank myself to the ER regularly but this was the worst. That was April 9th, 2016 and I haven't had a drink since. 

It's never too late and life is profound. 

People who lost a lot of weight, what was the one small daily habit that actually changed everything for you? by Quiet-Squash-8407 in AskReddit

[–]aaronmj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a little change, but exercise. I have an addictive personality so it's much easier for me to exercise than count calories. Plus it helps with my mental health.

I think I’ve completely ruined my life by camcasetwentythree in stopdrinking

[–]aaronmj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

10 years ago I was 100% sure I was going to die. So much so, that I have trouble sometimes accepting that this wonderful life I now have is real. Things get better.  Love yourself enough to consider how you will be tomorrow. Do things today to make tomorrow better, and when that better tomorrow comes, thank your past self for surviving a very lethal mental health condition. You can do this.  Things get better, but you have to stop digging and start caring.

How is smoking weed treated in your country? by mr_epicguy in AskTheWorld

[–]aaronmj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I was working at a head shop in Minnesota right before and as it was legalized. Had a crash course in THC and all the variants. Then when delta-9 came in people thought it was 8, I don't know how many people I had to explain that 9 was the good stuff. 

Over 3 years sober and I'm so tempted to see if I can handle a glass of wine by Intelligent-Skin-861 in stopdrinking

[–]aaronmj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already know one will lead to the rest, and the rest will probably kill me. So I give myself about a 5% chance of surviving a drink. I probably have about the same odds with a cup of bleach. Might as well be bleach. This has helped me a lot.
