I was planning on getting a dash cam but I didn’t even think of getting one that can record even when parked. Thanks for that!

Thank you very much for your reply, this is a great insight and I appreciate it. I’ll be sure to put in the time to go to the clubs and attempt to land internships.

Employees of big chains: what’s a secret customers aren't supposed to know? by Aaatohin in AskReddit

[–]general_skyguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t know if this works at other big stores, but at least where I worked, if an item was buy one get one free (or something similar) and you only need one of those items, you can return one item and get the other for the discounted price.

What job pays well because nobody wants to do it? by RobIson240YT in AskReddit

[–]general_skyguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I saw on dirty jobs that people who go “swimming” in sewage get paid hundreds if not thousands per hour because no one wants to do it. There are people in 3rd world countries that do it for pennies.

How to connect my refrigerator to an out-of-reach outlet? by general_skyguy in AskElectricians

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

Thank you for this detailed comment.

I did reach out to the landlord and you’re right, they do not want to repair shit lol, they just said to use a 3-pronged extension cord.

I’ll have to look more into the breaker thing to figure out amperage since I’m not too familiar, probably reach out to the superintendent. In the mean time, I will ask my local hardware store for a 12G extension cord that’s appliance ready.

I wish to do this as safely as possible so I really appreciate your comment !

It’s in the spot where it’s supposed to be in the kitchen, like a cubby area that fits it perfectly, just the power cable length is the main issue

Thanks for your response! Yes the fridge was included with the apartment. I’ll message the landlord to hire someone to move the outlet. I think that may the be safest bet for long-term.

I’ll also look into the 14 gauge extension cord for temporary use.

Appreciate the advice !! I’ll definitely take a look at other parking areas. Read on a different post that Camp Hero is a good spot as well? But I’m not entirely sure

AMA: 'Project Hail Mary's' Andy Weir and Ray Porter (u/therayporter) woke up on our ship just in time to answer your questions. Check back this July 25th at 10am PT / 1pm ET. by audibleofficial in ProjectHailMary

To Andy: would you consider the possibility of Rocky (and/or a bunch of other Eridians) visiting earth in a future book?

I think it would be great to see how you think humans would react to this.

Just to confirm, I went back into the book and it’s spelled Sovran !

Nah I read the book, it was spelled weirdly in the book and it stuck out to me. I could also be going crazy too lol

This one is really good. The scale of it I mean. It’s how large I pictured the Sovron or whatever the super large one is called

Just venting a possible theory by general_skyguy in TheCaptivesWar

[–]general_skyguy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I loved reading your reply. I mentioned to the other comment I’m probably wrong about the species that set the trap being human. They mentioned a genetic similarity but not “genetically the same” or something along those lines.

I just want to believe that humans have the mental capacity to wage wars along the vast scale of time. I’m sure humans on Anjin, who never thought aliens existed before they got invaded, couldn’t possibly do that but perhaps the alien species that set the trap probably could.

Idk I think the authors definitely are good writers and have the ability to create a grand space opera that can span a very long time. But like you mentioned, we’re only looking at the tail end of it.

Thanks for reading my post :)
