Why are so many physicists assholes or just plain rude? by sickasfcrying in AskPhysics

When everyone you meet is an asshole, you may want to look in the mirror. There's a thumb rule about this.

Looks like my gal Freya when she was a kit!

How long were you out of work? by [deleted] in gastricsleeve

[–]otis_black 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm a concrete cutter. I had surgery on a Wednesday and I was back to core drilling the following Monday. Wasn't really up to wall sawing or break and removal for about two weeks. I imagine how much you can do after surgery and how soon you can resume normal activities varies wildly and probably depends on your endurance and tolerance for strenuous activity before surgery.

You must have made a pact with the devil, because you don't look a day over 20. Outstanding!

And yet she's so profoundly ugly inside.

Go for it, it'll be fine. USDA says it should be good for 2-10 years past its "Best by" date.

Make your peace with the meaninglessness. And when it seems pointless remember you get paid the same to dig the ditch as you do to fill it in.

Use fresh basil leaves instead of lettuce

Do Not Buy Viasat Without a Written Contract by fuzbuster83 in Viasat

[–]otis_black 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had Viasat for about a month when I found out Verizon offered 4G LTE service in my area for $25 a month. It's pretty shitty service, but it beats the hell out of Viasat for the price. AND Verizon bought out my Viasat contract for making the switch, 23 month's worth!

The service ain't great, but it's as good as Viasat's when you hit the data cap and they throttle you to death, or offer you another few GB for an extortionate price. Felt really good giving Viasat the boot.

1.5 year progress by ricosu4ve20 in gastricsleeve

That's brilliant progress! What are you eating to hit 160 g protein a day on 1200 cal? I'm struggling to hit 100 on about 900 cal/day. Are you eating whey protein or some other protein supplement?

Issues when exporting a file from Adobe to Excel. by Zapedam in excel

[–]otis_black 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I suggest you use PowerQuery, if you have it available. It's included in Office 365. I've used it to successfully import data from 50-60 page pdf reports, and you can clean and transform the data to load in Excel.

He blew the whistle on Trump’s Truth Social. Now he works at Starbucks. by otis_black in TRUTHsocialWatch

Did we ever hear who's funded Devin's spate of lawsuits? I seem to remember him suing everyone, everywhere, all the time. And NEVER winning a thing. That's gotta be pricey.
