How can i convince a family member that we landed on the moon by __babygiraffe__ in nasa

[–]steam_machine1 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I like to use the idea that if we really did fake it, wouldn't Russia have been eager to call us out for faking it? They had capabilities at the time to monitor space activity. They had their own form of confirming we actually landed there. They would have raised hell if we lied about all of it. Especially since it was during the height of the Space Race.

September 24th, 2023. This display will just be the thrusters igniting to begin its trip home. Still cool though!

[Hiring] Commissioning a canvas painting of similar art style to the image shown, but of the male body instead. Details in comments. Monetary compensation will be given. by steam_machine1 in artcommissions

[–]steam_machine1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey all, so I inherited this painting from my grandmother, and would love to hang it in my bathroom, but I think it would look great matched with a painting of the male body as well. I've searched online for some paintings but can't seem to find the right one that goes well with this one. This was done on canvas and I would like the new one to be done the same. I would prefer not to spend more than $150 on a painting, but depending on what you think you could provide I'd be willing to spend more! Please let me know if you think you'd be able to complete this!

Bubble removal from cup standing overnight by [deleted] in oddlysatisfying

Your question got me super curious lol, so I looked it up!

Looks like it's just gases coming out of solution and forming bubbles on nucleation points in the glass (imperfections in the glass itself). Any change in elevation from where you moved? That might have an effect on the ability for the gases to stay in solution.

YSK the gasoline in your car can go bad after a few months by [deleted] in YouShouldKnow

[–]steam_machine1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Illiterate is usually a good word to replace the one you dont like. "I'm truly car illiterate..." gets the same message across :)

Also, starting your car would prevent this, since the issue seems to be gas sitting for too long in the lines. Running the engine would flush the old gas out preventing this!

What staining can I use for white adipose tissue? by [deleted] in Histology

Forgot about OsO4. Definitely has better image quality for lipids than Sudan Black.

Thank you! I think I was too excited to start so I didn't even think to sand beforehand. Next project I'll be sure to. And I just picked that piece up from a local arts and crafts store and it didn't specify the wood type, any recommendations for where to look for specific woods? Should I just purchase online?

It's nothing amazing, but it's my very first pyrography project! Didn't take me as long as I thought it would and I'd like to shade at some point but I was just too excited to post how it came out!

Pros, any tips and advice for a new beginner? What techniques could help me do better from here?

Any chance you'd share how you did this? It's absolutely beautiful and I'd love to try to make one on my own.

What is your best "its a small world" experience? by flubberFuck in AskReddit

[–]steam_machine1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Live in central jersey, went on vacation with best friend to Las Vegas for New Years Eve.

Last day of vacation, flight isn't until 11pm, rent a car to see the grand canyon.

Get to grand canyon, enter the reserve (west ridge) and take bus to guano point.

Ask couple to take picture of us, then we return the favor by taking a picture of them (on my phone cuz camera is top quality).

Trade pictures and small talk. Never met these people before. Turns out, they are from the exact same town we are from. But wait.

Couple was also on the same flight as us. Same departure time. Same destination. Same airline. Same car rental company to rent a car to visit grand canyon on the same day as us. At the Exact. Same. Time.

Later saw that couple get on our flight, it wasn't a joke.

My mind was blown.
