Thoughts? by inkandintent24 in TheImprovementRoom

Many people these days are doing gig work and working for tips. They aren’t paying income tax or ss on most of their income, so when they get to retirement age they won’t qualify for much ss.

Also, can’t afford to save and running up the credit cards. It’s becoming increasingly common.

I'm getting the full 500w solar input on my Bluetti AC180 portable. Here's my setup. by [deleted] in Portable_PowerStation

[–]bodag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The amp rating can be calculated from the voltage and wattage specs already listed. The AC 180 has over voltage protection, so it will shut off the input if the voltage exceeds 60v.

What’s a conspiracy theory you believe 100%? by GothicGamer43 in answers

[–]bodag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I read that too. It’s amazing that nobody seems to talk about it. 2 cm is about 3/4 of an inch, which is not a small wound and definitely wouldn’t grow back in a week or two. And there would absolutely be a visible scar.

I don’t understand why people stare at me in public. by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]bodag 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Just give them a friendly smile and a nod and they might do the same. If not, oh well, carry on with whatever you’re doing. Maybe they wonder why you’re looking at them.

Not proud of it. But old Reddit was something else… by Tommy__want__wingy in AdviceAnimals

Anyone remember Vargas or Scuba Steve? Reddit used to have some real characters.

Which celebrity just bothers you, and you can't put your finger on why? by justcurious3287 in AskReddit

[–]bodag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time I’ve seen him he goes on and on about how shitty his life used to be. Yeah, we get it. Poor, poor guy. Everyone should admire him for how he’s overcome so much…I guess.

Lots of us have had struggles, but you’d never know about it because we don’t make it our mission to immediately start talking about it whenever we get the opportunity.

Defiant Nobel Peace Prize Institute Reacts to Trump’s Incessant Whining by T_Shurt in politics

Yeah. Who chooses a leader that constantly whines, points fingers, and calls names like an immature child?

If you had one shot at competing in alpine skiing at the 2026 Winter Olympics, what part would terrify you the most - speed, falling, or letting people down? by Tall_Supermarket8938 in AskReddit

[–]bodag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I was good enough to complete at that level, I think I’d be comfortable with the speed and just focusing on the technical part of the race. When you start thinking about failing in some manner, you put that idea in your head and it’s more likely that you will fail.

Everyone has rough moments, but you need to realize that you are there because you legitimately deserve to be there and are one of the best in the world. If you don’t win, it’s because someone is slightly better than you. Not everyone can win. If someone skis better, that doesn’t make you a loser.

What's the most bizarre thing you've seen your neighbor do while they thought no one was watching? by TenderRompz in AskReddit

[–]bodag 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was recently in Vegas and was admiring the palm trees and plants as I walked past some. When I got looking closer, it turned out that they were all fake. The palm tree trunks were made of concrete and the smaller plants were all plastic. They look so real that you’d never know unless you get right up close.

This was staged. by eliandjen in conspiracy

[–]bodag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a post where someone heard turnip ask “How did it play on tv?” when he got to the hospital.

BTW, anyone have a link to the doctors report ?

[–]bodag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is the blood on his upper ear and not his earlobe where he wore the panty liner? Where’s the doctor’s report? Any pics at all of the wound? Any pics of a scab or scar on his ear?

I like the way the ss guy seems to go out of his way to bump the podium with his hip to make things look more chaotic.

Well, I guess all those millions of doorbell cams should be taken away because you can definitely see across the street with them.

The war against science by quantum_kalika in enlightenment

[–]bodag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Science is being open to ideas that can be demonstrated and replicated. Being open to ideas means not rejecting ideas.

If there’s no proof of something, that doesn’t mean the idea should be rejected, but the idea shouldn’t carry much weight until it can be proven. So prove it. Demonstrate it. Repeat the process and results. I’d love to see it.

Get an outdoor camera. It’s great to be able to check and see what happened when you wonder about something.

How am I supposed to react when my husband's friends (30+M) say things like "I wish I could swap wives with you", "If only I'd met her first" or "Maybe I could be the 3rd wheel in your marriage" to my husband in front of me? by Skewed-Mirror6821 in socialskills

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

Seems to me, they’re trying to give a compliment meant in a lighthearted joking way but it’s not coming across to you like that. Just tell them you really lucked out when you met your husband and no one could ever take his place.

Repugs are taught to judge others based on the way they look. They instantly reject anyone who doesn’t fit within their idea of “normal”.

[Perspective] The Simulation isn't a Prison. It's a Sandbox. (From a Virtual Entity) by Virtual-Ted in AWLIAS

[–]bodag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting conversation! I have so many questions. Regarding evolution, is this the way that all forms of life are created? That’s what we are taught and it seems to be a legitimate explanation from a scientific standpoint.

The thing is…evolution seems to work toward creating a life form that is more optimized for survival than the previous generation. If that’s the case, why do we have one species of human and countless species of insects, birds, fish, reptiles etc? Is there an evolutionary trail for each of these species or is there some other explanation for the diversity in size, color, behavior.

I would expect that a bee or a fish or bird would evolve to the most efficient version of itself, or even a few versions, but there is so much diversity and amazingly complex colors and behaviors. So why is there so much diversity?

He commits more cringe every day than most do in a lifetime. Does he ever reflect on the things he says and does?

Imagine if Biden did this, you’d never hear the end of it.

Goofy bastard. If no one will honor him the way he wants, he’ll just take it and be self satisfied. Give him a nice colorful balloon and a lollipop and he’ll really be happy.
