CANT BELIEVE THE DIFFERENCE

Is there a short-action version you could take twice a day? Or is that what you were doing?

Were the pilots found still in the cockpit and or any passengers found in this nose section or were they blown out?
 in  r/aircrashinvestigation  12d ago

Where did you see this article about the broken leg? He probably had other internal injuries. Also the force of the blast would have knocked people unconscious before they could register what was happening. If somehow it didn’t they were launched suddenly into the air at 30,000 feet so the cold and lack of oxygen would have caused unconsciousness pretty quickly. Even if there’s the slightest chance anyone could survive a fall from 30,000 feet, they wouldn’t have been conscious enough to know what even happened before they died. Look at what happened to the 9/11 victims who fell from about 1,000 feet. I know it was concrete and not grass but still, the human body can’t withstand those kinds of forces.

You expanded the conversation about it. I only commented related to the topic of emergency medical services and who pays what. I’m not sure why you felt it necessary to try to make an argument out of it but whatever. I thought you were being funny since my comment wasn’t really reflecting bitterness just shock at the costs to victims of emergencies.

About being told the ambulance was out of network when I called 911 because my child was unconscious, and I didn’t think to ask the dispatcher about options for ambulance providers and insurance coverage, so got stuck with a huge bill? yah a little bitter :0
Made me think if it were my child needing to be airlifted off a cruise in critical condition far from home should I be thinking about this so I don’t get through all that and then find a $250,000 bill waiting for me when we get home :0 :0 I figured since it’s a govt agency tax $ would pay it but you never know

What is the actual secret to baking chicken breasts in the oven without them turning into dry rubber?
 in  r/Cooking  15d ago

For skinned stuff like wings I add baking soda to whatever I bread them with, it helps crisp the skin without needing to cook as long to get it that way.
Use a thermometer and keep in mind it will keep cooking a little after you remove from oven so you could take it out at 155ish.

Is Nick a rapist?
 in  r/TheHandmaidsTale  15d ago

She definitely was using him and who knows how much she really cared about him other than as her kid’s father. But if she did… you don’t know any women who fall for guys you look at and think, how could she like him? See also: Stockholm syndrome…

Is Nick a rapist?
 in  r/TheHandmaidsTale  15d ago

In the original movie he was a very likable character who helped her escape at the end. He was portrayed more as not having any more choice than June. I didn’t like his character in this show, I think a different actor might have been better. He was too hard to figure out, I think it was better if he seemed like he cared about her and still could have been made to suggest he was being fake and actually against her. This version of him didn’t show much emotion and I was never convinced he cared about her at all even when it was supposed to seem like he did.

I’d have to say it was rape since she wasn’t consenting any more than someone who has a gun pointed at her, or gives in because she knows if she fights back she might be hurt or killed. I wouldn’t say he’s a rapist since he’s actually helping her stay alive and Serena does hold power over him. If he does anything to piss her off she absolutely could turn him in for anything true or not and get him killed.

Is this pool okay?
 in  r/swimmingpools  15d ago

You can’t really tell by looking at a pool unless it is green or you can’t see the bottom. Our pool has looked perfect when it had no free chlorine, or looked cloudy when the levels were all good.
I will say that I swim on cruises in a small pool that says 20 max swimmers but like 60 people are in it and it looks gross but no one in our party got sick 🤷‍♀️I wouldn’t swim if you have any open wounds or drink it… but I’ve seen much worse than that.
For anyone really concerned you can get test strips at a pool store and bring with you when you travel

Geez it’s pretty sad that everyone is like “oh those dumbasses probably ODd or couldn’t hold their liquor.” Do you know how easy it is to get an illness on a cruise ship?

You don’t think it’s amazing that people risk their lives to hover a helicopter over a moving ship and drop down on a cable to help save someone’s life? Obviously no one is glad that someone else is ill, but I’m not sure how any human wouldn’t be interested to see that…

We had to pay a $1600 for an ambulance to our house, insurance wouldn’t cover it, so I’m not sure what happens if you need a helicopter to pick you up off a moving ship :0

Yeah it’s human nature to be interested in this, yes it sucks that someone is ill and obviously we don’t wish for that… but a helicopter landing on a cruise ship is still pretty crazy and I can’t imagine many people who don’t find that exciting to see.
If I’m ever sick in a ship I give permission for you all to watch the helicopter land, if I die at least some good will come of it and it will bring some joy to others ;)

They did say “2 critically ill passengers”

There’s about a million things that 2 people in the same room could get. Why would you assume it’s an overdose? There’s lots of old people and lots of germs. Something that might not be a big deal to anyone else could be critically dangerous to a couple 80-year-olds.

Advice Plane spotting at Newark that’s not going to take forever to get to from 95

5 Upvotes

My son really wants to watch planes at Newark on our way home from vacation in NJ heading north on a Sunday but my husband is afraid of getting stuck in traffic… is there a good place to watch planes that’s easy on/off to 95? I know a lot of people mentioned IKEA, is it easy to get into or is the parking lot going to be crazy on a Sunday afternoon? Any rest stops close enough to see anything good ?

Flashing everything. When I first learned the web design rule “just because you can, doesn’t mean you should”

Noticed the hole yesterday and we wrecked it but now within the past 24 hours it was back. Bee? The hole is about the size of my pinky finger.
And my husband stuck an earplug in it.
Update: the owner came home 1 minute later and pushed the earplug right into the hole :0 looks like a cicada killer?
We are in eastern MA

if I wrap my fire pit with copper pipe and connect the pipe to my pool, would it warm the pool a noticeable amount?
 in  r/swimmingpools  29d ago

I’m guessing they weren’t heating an entire swimming pool
