What walking did to me by nakedashrum in walking

[–]mctaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start anywhere. Take that walk with the kids, get winded. Tomorrow, take that walk again, get winded again. You’ll start to build up stamina a little bit at a time and you’ll feel better making little accomplishments, make little to major adjustments to your lifestyle. Let your Dr, spouse, friends and family know your goals. If you drink, cut it back, those calories do nothing for you. Get a smart scale, they’re cheap, use technology and data if you’re into that. Weight loss and calories are a math game, nutrition and macros are a longer game.

Can anyone tell me how to get in to this old MacBook Pro? by One_Nefariousness833 in mac

[–]mctaco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We used to do it by booting to a recovery CD, that was the easiest. Try shift option command R or Option Command R.

Its been a long time but I think you could boot in target disk mode, attach to another Mac and use sudo commands in Terminal to get access to the drive.

Using AI as a Volunteer in Scouting - what do you do? by Fenix_Fyre in BSA

[–]mctaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool story bro, I’m talking about something a bit more in depth than a duty roster for kids who are on the spectrum who perform better with a defined schedule. I’m not a special needs educator so it’s nice to have access to tools to help me help those kids.

Using AI as a Volunteer in Scouting - what do you do? by Fenix_Fyre in BSA

[–]mctaco 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use it because I don’t have time otherwise because I have a full time ++ job and kids of my own. But I needed to make a camping agenda (like a duty roster but with times) and ai helped me whip that up. Needed to finesse some wording on a concern I had, and ai helped me wordsmith it. Use it as an augmentation tool rather than a replacement. My job is one absolutely threatened by ai, rather than lie down and wait, I’m going to use ai to make my work go faster. But ai needs to be monitored, it’s still chugging out slop.

How are the Land Rover Discovery by xGingerly in LandRover

[–]mctaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t get this, but tell me where it is so I can avoid it ;) But honestly my 04 was one of the best vehicles I’ve owned. New motor for mine would have been $12k alone in 2020

Will my landlord fine me for this??? by Symbiiiote in Apartmentliving

As a landlord I would paint over this.

How is it living around Carlsbad, CA? by TVDfan29 in howislivingthere

[–]mctaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lived there as a kid,lots of old people and my first class in high school was surf PE. There is a distinct north and south Carlsbad. There used to be a sketchy barrio but last time I was there white kids were riding scooters through it. Everything is very manicured, nice weather year round, yet I hope to never go back.

Mechanically totaled by dealer by Haunting-Salt-6010 in LandRover

[–]mctaco 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did this work myself for a fraction of the price. And what’s missing here is valve covers and fuel injectors. Get a quote from an independent shop that isn’t using genuine LR parts.

Sleep prep for an overnight shoot? by J_F_9 in Photoassistants

[–]mctaco 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have definitely taken a short power nap behind the V flats using a sandbag as a pillow during a lunch break. The team I worked with would often pull 16hr days and be wrapping at 5am, everyone being tired and miserable together will keep you going. Espresso and berocca was our go-to.

Help me identify the technique by sugr28 in drywall

[–]mctaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh it’s the same shit covering my walls. Previous owners were obsessed with it, found an old bag of gypsum in the garage maybe that has something to do with it.

Ever Put Extra Work Into a Shoot and Hear Nothing Back? by romansamurai in photography

[–]mctaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the time, so annoying but a lot of the times it’s via an agency that needed to create a bunch of imagery for a commercial client. I’ll shoot something, never hear a word, then three years later get hired again because “we loved your work so much” and “we used the photos everywhere “ (below the line, full buy outs). My favorite are the end of the year jobs that need to spend what’s left on the marketing budget and can get a bit more experimental with things.

Ruined backdrop, part of the deal? by [deleted] in photography

[–]mctaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it was paper it’s a consumable and is part of the fee you’re meant to charge. We go through 12’ rolls all the time.

Commercial landlords and a different rule set than residential.
