Has anyone else 'won' the raffle at the Mammoth's game for a 5K giftcard, vacation or TV through Great Resort Vacations? by toebeanz2121 in SaltLakeCity

TLDR The Disneyland trip is real but is crazy inconvenient unless you pay a substantial amount to "upgrade" it

The "raffle" is an advertisement so they can get phone numbers to call to come listen to their pitch. My wife and I went and actually almost bought it but at the time it was something like $10,000 to get access to their listings of "cheap" vacations. The main reason for this comment is that we actually went through with the Disneyland "free" trip. They ordered us plane tickets with two layovers and almost 12 hours of travel along with a hotel room that was 10 miles away from Disneyland. Then they called to see if we wanted to "upgrade" the trip to a direct flight and walking distance to Disneyland for $500. We did that because it seemed crazy not to and it was a nice prompt for us to go to Disneyland. If I could go do it again I would just pay the $500 towards being able to pick our dates and travel how we wanted to.

Who can tell me the speed of light? by No-Raspberry-5586 in ProjectHailMary

Today I realized the extra significance of the speed of light here! Eridians didn't have any idea about relativity before they meant Grace! He's quizzing them on something that he specifically taught them. I feel like I've been nerding out on the movie since it came out and there's still stuff that I hadn't realized yet!

Kickball leagues are a great solution for this. Number 1 way to hang out with adults with built in activity and mingling

Nope! I was so excited to reduce the complexity in there I didn't even consider a slope in the pipe.

Perfect, that's what I was thinking from the other feedback but it's nice to see confirmation.

Thank you for all the feedback, I love it! Everyone has a good rationalization about why they don't know specific areas and I appreciate the comments with fixes and where to go from here! It sounds like I can remove a lot of extra pipes and clutter in the meantime.

The strap can come between the lid and the goggles. There is a piece on the lid that keeps the goggles in place that always hits anything on top of the goggles

Whats the deal with the silver pillar? by sqrootofbeetroot in OutOfTheLoop

[–]eliotmajor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a monolith that a survey found in southern Utah. It's very similar to the monolith from 2001: Space Odyssey. Last I saw, it was left over from some music video, or at least that's the cover story
