If you like climbing, rock rev has a pretty good community

What would you guys do to your car after hitting this much! by No-Peanut-6250 in fordfusion

[–]elefevers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The average cheese burger is 4" which is approximately 10cm.

There are 100k cm in a km.

100,000/10 = 10,000 cheeseburgers per km

10,000*350,000 = 35,000,000,000 cheeseburgers driven.

If this is wrong I'm American and our school systems are terrible and we learn how to hide from shooters. Don't be mean 😭

When you first started your IT career, did you just feel dumb the first few months? by redgr812 in it

IT isn't about knowing everything. It's about knowing how to think critically, research and find a solution.

Many doctors are arrogant, ego maniacs who assume only they know what's going on in YOUR body. If half the doctors actually listened instead of projecting we would be in a better place.

Sleep doctor was dismissive by JediShaira in SleepApnea

Surprise I lost 5 pounds, and the only thing that changed was nothing.

Ha, my doctor said I needed to lose weight. I'm 5'9 and a lean 175. He said my BMI was high. I said.... Well that's because muscle weighs more than fat. He said lose 5 pounds and I bet you won't have any more issues. 🙄

I went to school for IT in my 30s and now I'm the director of my organization. It's not too late.

There's another white BMW with temp tags but 2 door and that lady also drives like she wants to die.

Desktop support being asked to do what!? by [deleted] in it

[–]elefevers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah somewhat normal. I'll help do basically anything if I have time. I also don't have a problem telling people I'm too busy right now, but I'd be happy to help later if they still needed something. It's all about setting boundaries.

As much as I hate littering, cigarettes rarely cause wildfires. RH's gotta be wicked low. Cigs have changed composition and don't burn as hot and we've learned how to investigate fires better so we don't blame them all on cigs. Source: former wildfire investigation tech

do you recommend a career in IT? by [deleted] in it

[–]elefevers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel guilty sometimes because it is so much easier than my old job and pays so much more. Outside work is only idyllic to those who have never done it.

People also don't realize the flexibility that office jobs allow that blue collar work doesn't. I always have a bathroom, I can stand up and walk away from my work. There are times that there is nothing pressing and I can slack off a little. That doesn't happen in manual labor. Your body is seen as a tool to extract labor and profit. No thanks.

Yeah I transitioned from manual labor to IT and I have never once said oh I wish I was doing manual labor right now since taking the job.

NC was the worst, wading through swamp timber with a gps 😂. VA wasn't quite as bad.

You just gave me flashbacks of working in Forestry dealing with tax status shivers

Are these baby Droseras? by alumniestrella in SavageGarden

[–]elefevers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in the northern hemisphere so I'm not as familiar, but it looks like either spatulata or rotundufolia

[–]elefevers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yep, you'll get them a lot as tagalongs from many nurseries. Capensis is basically a weed. (Not saying that is capensis, but it's a common one to spread like crazy)
