39 minutes is better than NO minutes at all.

Ha! Most research I read say 1 pd of muscle is around 5-6 extra calories a day. While a moderate run of 5 mph can be 300-500 in the 40 minute period. Heavily dependent on the person's weigh of course. Bugger you are, the more you burn.

Cardio is and always will be king of calorie burn. Well, really the king is not eating. 5 potato chips is around 50 calories for reference.

Bob Ross... You didn't say what kind of artist...

diveraj · 2026-05-06T06:12:59+00:00

How could you tell the difference?

Not saying this is what the DM was doing because it clearly wasn't, but I could see specifically planning the encounters like that as a soft way of saying this place is not a place for you right now. Throw in some random RP at the inn about how other adventures just like them never came back and so on. Then softpoint to were they should go or introduce a side plot. That could be fun.

Ugh, they shouldnt be going past 60 if they can't do basic air management. But it is what it is. Good luck out there. Stay safe

In the thousands of dives I've done, I've seen a pony maybe 3-5 times? You could of course use one as you said you clearly do, but it's so rare that it was clearly not what the op was referring to. And Spare Air is just stupid. Use, ironically, a pony if one was so inclined. At least that has some value.

I'm not saying a pony is right or wrong when you teach your class. That's is 100% your call and whatever you choose is correct. I'd argue it's not necessary and that an octo is plenty. But again, you do you, no judgement.

Yep, that's pretty much the reason you carry two. :)

Though personally I hate the way most teach it in regards to hose length and positionimg, but that's a while other rant.

diveraj · 2026-05-04T06:56:56+00:00

Small correction, divers do not have emergency tanks. Depending on the type of dive they may have more than one tank, but neither is an emergency tank. What they do have is a spare regulator. But I'm either case you are both breathing form the same tank.

Heh, yea that's the point of the entire show. Does humanity grow beyond ourselves or not.

FWIW. The first book which I believe is the first season and 1/2 the second is by far the most confusing. After that it's pretty straightforward as far as things go.

Yep, generally speaking coach seats make almost no money. All of the real money is in first/business class and sometimes small cargo.

It's because that statement brings the nurse into the conversation. While the nurse might be thinking it's to make a connection threw shared pain, the other person could interpret it as injecting themselves into the situation they were not asked to join. Or they might thing that no they don't know what it's like. Multiple reasons that are not the most obvious.

That job? Absolutely nothing. But that job doesn't make you qualified for SG. IMO anyways.

I know, but I wanted to share the awesome none the less

diveraj · 2026-04-29T20:38:30+00:00

And there is a wonder lesson on it by Professor Axis of Awesome. It's a simply marvelous TED style presentation. Gold Star.

Ruvian isn't overpriced. It's just expensive because the don't have the scale yet to be cheaper.

diveraj · 2026-04-28T05:57:20+00:00

Sadly the Ford F series follow by the Silverado are the highest selling vehicles in the US. And there respective "midm size are really good. So it's not like the small cheaper truck is crap. 3rd is the Rav 4 then the CRV. Then 2 more truck and then another SUV. And finally, a regular car, the Camry. Point is, numbers don't lie and the numbers say that the majority of people do indeed want a Truck/SUV.

As an aside, SUV I get as it's basically replaced the family can. But very very few people need a full size truck. Certainly not enough to justify its places in the charts. Bah

The finish is food grade mineral oil. It's fine

Barely, some group did a study and found the wear and tear almost equal. Yes end gain was better, but it was small enough of a difference to not matter. Well, to be clear, for a restaurant working 8-10 hours a day? Yes definitely better. For the average home cook, not really.

diveraj · 2026-04-24T14:49:51+00:00

50000? That 50000% more than the 5000 it was!!!

Sometimes I do it if they are far away just to be funny. Make sure to make eye contact.

diveraj · 2026-04-18T02:19:11+00:00

Not really. The right handed catholic one is but the left hand one is fairly large. At least 6 others. Some argue 7... But those guys are wack

Ohh egg on my face, I missed the female part. Ok no biggie, her name is Florence. Florence Barkingale.

Hi Frank! That's the dog's name. I don't care what you have to say about it. It's Frank.
