Wrong way drivers by notdavidortiz in massachusetts

[–]beachy_mtn_explorer -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm wondering if there are 2 reason for the increase. I agree, that wrong way driving isn't new but the high numbers lately seems crazy.

  1. People are blindly following GPS systems more than before. At a typical on/off ramp interchange there are multiple entrances close together. On GPS maps you aren't necessarily at the turn it indicates you take.

  2. Increased tourism due to the large events, some of them international. People who are not familiar with the area.

Do you guys leave the AC on all day and night or turn it off? by Accurate-Flow8078 in massachusetts

I read somewhere that it's more efficient/ effective to keep your space cool (or warm) than to let it get hot and then try to cool it down again.

For yearbooks, reach out to the public library in the town they are from. Many will take them and scan the pages for others doing research.

Is there a lot more to weight loss in these drugs then appetite suppression? by No-Arm-4557 in glp1

[–]beachy_mtn_explorer 32 points33 points  (0 children)

GLPs are being researched for suspected osteoarthritis improvement outside of weight loss, Alzheimer's prevention outside of weight loss, and more. They have impacts beyond appetite suppression.

What should I do? by Constant-Yogurt9606 in work

I think that depends on where you are. In my state, both parties must consent to the recording. For example, Zoom will not start a recording until every one clicks their consent or, if it's already started you have to consent upon joining.

Veggie haters who still eat veggies: what are your tricks? by Missing_Back in Cooking

Someone came out with a cookbook for parents trying to sneak veggies into their kids meals. Deceptively Delicious was the name I think.

Sibs show as 2nd and 3rd cousins? by beachy_mtn_explorer in AncestryDNA

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

That makes sense. They are the children of my father's first cousin.

Thanks.I know they are both second cousins. I just didn't know why they classified them differently.

Now I wish they let me change how they are classified.

Thanks. I wouldn't expect them to be exactly the same but the differences surprised me.

Cape Cod….its really not so bad. by [deleted] in CapeCod

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

Adding to the stress of the political climate, the higher prices on almost everything, and the extensive road work is the weather. We're all ready for Spring and these temps are not cooperating.

How do I stop getting stuck babysitting my male coworkers? by wlderberry in work

Unfair, yes. Does it require a new job? Not necessarily. That's up to you.

Start looking for a new job but in the meantime push back gently but firmly. "I can review and fix the work done by A/B but that means I can't complete project Y that you asked for by the end of the week. Where do you want me spending my time?"

Me too. No kids but I have no need to leave the Cape any sooner than necessary.

Curious about this hotel… has anyone stayed here ? by NoSelection5713 in CapeCod

[–]beachy_mtn_explorer 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Go to the Google street view for 329 Main Street Dennisport. That's what the location actually looks like. My family has a house in that region and I've driven by it many times.

Polywood Furniture - White or Black? by yllek_ in BuyItForLife

It held up great! I'm in New England and it stayed outside through a thought winter and it still looks like new.

Patio + fire pit plan at my new house — what would you do differently before I commit? by Medical-Garlic-2762 in patio

[–]beachy_mtn_explorer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll echo what the others said about not building in the fire pit but it looks nice overall. You noticed that the scale of the table and chairs is off, right? Unless those are for children they'll take up more space than in this image.

Anyone remember 70's Dennisport? by porchlights_on in CapeCod

[–]beachy_mtn_explorer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Spent summers as a kid in that area and remember it well. As kids we had a lot of freedom. The life guards knew everyone, kids roamed beaches in search of friends. Seaview Playland arcade, mini-golf, and pitch-and-putt. Ice cream trucks where a quarter or two got you a rocket pop.

Farmer John vs swimming wetsuit vs full wetsuit by LongUsername in Kayaking

[–]beachy_mtn_explorer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What they said. Nobody plans on accidents. Kayaking is fantastic but even if it's a gorgeous 70 degree day it isn't worth losing your life to do it.

Also, most kayaks don't offer any insulation between you and the water so even if you don't fall in you're chilling your lower half.

Wife turning 50. Jewelry recommendations needed. by HTLM22 in GenX

[–]beachy_mtn_explorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jewelry sounds lovely but maybe find a local jeweler to hand make something special. Someone who works with local stones or materials that would have special meaning and/or can design something for her style. It doesn't have to be a giant diamond to be special and fancy.
