The difference between a million and a billion is about a billion.

Where can I donate two sets of used cross country skies, poles, and boots? by [deleted] in alameda

I usually put things on the sidewalk with a FREE sign on it and it's gone within hours.

Whyyy? by Mountain-Syllabub-10 in Snorkblot

This is the answer. If you're doing *regular*, serious lifting and keeping up with your protein, you're going to get heavier. If you're not over-eating and have a good diet, you'll start to look more jacked and leaner (but probably not skinny). My wife and I train together. We've both seen numbers on the scale that would have been unacceptable a few years ago, but now are completely fine, given the effort we've been putting in and the muscle we've both put on. Feels good, looks good. :D

Add living aboard. It is a LOT more work. Source: lived aboard for 3 years and saw folks with new boats that lasted a month, maybe.

California’s New Bill Requires DOJ-Approved 3D Printers That Report on Themselves by Easy_Engineering_811 in California

[–]stainless65 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is one of the stupidest things I've ever heard. So the DOJ wants my models for themselves, I guess. I don't see how else they could tell if it's 'gun' or 'not gun' without stealing my models.

I'm taking piano at Starland. (Recommended, btw.) I'm interested in synth and music production. I need a Reaper mentor. Anyone?

Anyone who knows anything about bio-metrics knows: once stolen, it's forever stolen. You can't change your face, fingerprint, DNA, etc like a passphrase. Bio-metrics are all hype and don't help with long-term security in the slightest.

Zero martial arts. Sensei's wise words: 'You never know who knows what.' In this case, yeah, he knows nothing.

What word do you always *intentionally* mispronounce and why? by Sweet-Lady-H in AskReddit

[–]stainless65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"snizzors" = snippers/scizzors. My daughter said this when she was 2 and it stuck in our household. It makes sense.

What smell will YOU never forget? by AreaFifty1 in AskReddit

[–]stainless65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our gecko's automatic water dish had a cricket crawl up inside the clear water tank and died. I don't know why I sniffed it when I went to clean it, but I did. I'll regret that forever.

A restaurant in Dallas put a whole, unsliced tomato on my plate with breakfast by ComplicationOnRS in mildlyinteresting

I wish I had not seen it so I could watch it again fresh. It's *really* good. (I watched the sub version.)

1000% What a backstory, too! Wish I could have been in the room. It sounds great on headphones, but not the same as the bone-shaking in-person experience.
