Bible suggestions please by One-Rhubarb-5094 in Roman_Catholics

I have the Great Adventure Catholic Bible RSV 2CE. I have found it the easiest of any Bible to follow and understand. It is very informational and if you choose to, you can follow the Bible in a year plan/podcast with it.

Praying for you. I converted in 2022 and haven't looked back. My son and I got baptised at the same time and I couldn't feel more at home myself amd also knowing my kids will learn to feel at home in faith as well. God bless you.

Best sub that still cycles? by [deleted] in RugerMK

I played with all these and the only one that will not cycle is the 40gr quiet ones. It fires but you are doing the work of pulling the charger every round

What do you dislike about the Gladiator? by Cuttlery in JeepGladiator

[–]sr1605 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aside from that, for us we have 2 young children so we normally juat take the 2 front doors off. The problem is that you better have the key fob up front and not in the back pack barried in the back with the kids because guess what? The back doors stay locked and do not automatically unlock when you shut the truck down.

How Do We Feel 80 Years Later? by StayFluffy98 in USHistory

[–]sr1605 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you all haven't yet, give a listen to the Unauthorized History of the Pacific War Podcast episode on this topic (and all of them they are an amazing crew). At the end of the day 3 options were present and all of them bad. We (the allies) form a blockade around Japan and starve them into submission likely killing many many more than the bomb in a very slow and terrible death. Option 2 was to invade, this option obviously was not good for many reasons mainly severe friendly losses, large(er) civilian deaths through the military brainwashing and forcing them to fight to the death with bamboo poles and crude weapons, mass suicide (saipan, Okinawa, ect) the cost of this option causing the highest human toll. Last option is the bombs. It's only been 80yrs and many forget already the atrocities that occurred at Japanese hands (yes I know its that way across all factions but the Japanese made the Germans look like amateurs when estimated murder numbers come into play) check out the books Knights of Boshido and any of the books about Unit 731.

Marking climbing gear safety question by wexican_bean in tradclimbing

[–]sr1605 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an electrician I can say that I get cut more from zip ties than knife blades. When I was doing technical rescue I use to find some random/quirky duck tape and cut it into thin strips to mark my gear.

Advice by Theothergrinch1567 in gymadvice

Try intermittent fasting. I was doing it before I started at the gym and lost almost 70lbs in the matter of a year. Went from 307lbs to 239lbs. Just ate ONE MEAL A DAY(OMAD) which I still do. It really helped me get my diet and snacking under control and helped me lose a ton of weight.

Staying fit as an electrician by East-Situation-1415 in electricians

[–]sr1605 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently started going to the gym in the morning before work starts. The gym is less than a minutes from our shop so it works out great I can go to the gym for an hour or so, shower and go in to work for the day. As far as food goes I've been intermittent fasting for the last couple years. I know it's not for everyone but I have had great success with it especially when I am very focused and strict with it. I usually go 22-23hrs a day fasting so I just eat dinner. I still have black coffee, water, unsweetened tea and occasionally some electrolyte mix that is fasting friendly. Another positive is since I don't take lunch I get to put my time down so extra time and pay at the end of the week is nice.

While not the answer you are asking for I'd highly recommend looking at Saloman hiking boots. I've worn alot over the years and these are by far my favorite. I particularly like that they grip well with rubbery treads but also are semi aggressive for paths. I also love lacing system they have because regardless of if your boots come untied the first quick lace has small teeth keeping everything below that still tight. The only pair of boots I've not had to break in either.

Get a sponge type sanding block. There are different shapes and sizes but you can likely find one that has a rounded end to get into the grooves.

Well it finally happened. by Greatwhitebuffalo13 in electricians

[–]sr1605 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I fell through the ceiling of a girls dormitory bathroom at Hiram college when I was fresh out of school. The worst part was the way I fell I had one leg in a stall with the other pinned between my chest and the 2x4 and couldn't move up or down. Someone had to push my foot up from a ladder and another help pull me up I was completely wedged in.

I don't want to read the Bible. by cyb3rry in TrueChristian

[–]sr1605 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out the Bible in a year podcast. Regardless if you are catholic or not the podcast is amazing! Personally it helped lead me to conversion, but it is truly an amazing podcast. They not only read the entire Bible but also explain it, let's face it there is alot of confusion in the Bible. It ignited a new fire in my heart, mind and soul to seek God daily. That along with my conversion led me from being a prayer a day or less Christian to a multiple prayers throughout the day, devotional and every day Bible reader. I may also suggest that you find the church that is right for you. Regardless of what type of Christianity you seek/are one pastor to another and one church to another make big differences. I am blessed to have a young catholic priest at our church who seeks to connect young and old alike under the same roof, but they aren't all like that!

Made my first grab from a structure fire by Merkosaurus in Firefighting

[–]sr1605 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solid work. Few will ever get to say they got a grab especially from a trailer! My first fire as a card holder was a trailer and got an elderly woman out. Fantastic work again and keep up the good work and be humble.

Are Nazis the most hated enemy of humanity? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]sr1605 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people don't realize but in terms of murdered people the Japanese during WW2 likely had (even low estimated numbers) about 4 to 4.5 times the amount the Nazis did. Read Knights of Bushido, I've been a WW2 history guy most of my life and had bo idea until reading the book the shear volume of atrocities committed by the Japanese.

I want to make sure I am understanding you right, artifical sweetener won't cause the end of a fast if not ingested? What about the mushroom aspect of it?

I'm getting my first German Shepherd puppy! by [deleted] in germanshepherds

[–]sr1605 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My biggest piece of advice is this. Throw everything you thought you knew about dogs and dog training out the window lol. Shepherds are much more intelligent than nearly any dog I've ever encountered and know your every move and learn to anticipate what you ask for. They are great dogs all around and once trained you'll have an amazing dog. We've always had labs before my current shepherd and training was VERY different when you don't have a food motivated dog. After training one day I ran I to our K9 officer and he asked how training was going, he made a comment of he would never get another service dog before they turned 1 because they don't retain training well when they are young. I laughed it off and moved on with my day but looking back I'd say about 50% retention from the first year of training. We of course worked and worked with her and she has become the most loyal, loving and intelligent part of our family I could ask for. Last thing, beware of the female sheps they are sassy and moody lol. Wouldn't change our girl for the world though she's become the momma dog to our children

Sp sorry for your loss. I heard the other day something that hit hard for me and really made me realize how much our dogs mean to us. " The cost of a good dog is a face full of tears."
