Reply to Paver base for shed? by bzm_htx

Your resin shed with a floor will do great over pavers on gravel. For best results, make the paver base as flat as possible, to result in a shed build that will not be out of square or forced together. Get a few extra pavers to build a sort of ramp up into the shed.

Reply to comment by ttermayhem in LPT: Don't say "hello" at the beginning of your outgoing voicemail message. People will start talking to your recording and be annoyed. by ProblemLongjumping12

So your boss or a client, someone who you have no authority over but whom you need to work with, calls you and they mention that they had to repeat themselves and found it annoying, your response to them is: What you need to ask yourself is: why am I so easily annoyed?? Work on your anger issues and watch things improve. B U L L S H I T. You'd apologize and rethink the message like any normal person open to valid criticism.

Reply to Film taste is largely subjective by 85Millennial

whether you like a film or not is 100% subjective.

but filmmaking is just as much a CRAFT as it is an ART. Craftsmanship can be somewhat objective. and that's where critics and other filmmakers/artists might have a leg up.

i also think quality of storytelling can be somewhat objective but thats much grayer.

it's an interesting subject.

Not happy about the new mandate.... For my department, only daylight has to come into the office, the offshifts are fully based at home.

I really feel bad for our guy out in New Jersey, he's the person on his entire floor.

Reply to Pay off student loans in one go or buy a home with savings? by blankusername666

Don't pay off the student loans in advance. I had a similar amount and I paid it off over 20+ years at somewhere between $100-$150 dollars a month. It really is not going to impact you that much, especially decades later when you're earning way more.

I imagine it this way. Imagine if someone assembled 20k from your earnings over 20 years. That's quite an assembly of capital and a decent interest rate. You might as well do something with it you can't otherwise do because you're never going to get a 20k loan with 4% interest ever again (credit cards? LOL) except maybe a new auto loan or a mortgage.

Reply to It is what it is by idk_juan_maybe

There is no such thing as a future defining exam. Unless you’re tryna be a doctor. In which case, good luck with that 250k worth of debt. That exam was not what defines your future.

Reply to comment by barbzilla1 in What is known about pain enhancement? For instance, are there drugs that are the opposite of analgesics? If so, what are they and how do they work with neurons/neurotransmitters? by DollyPartWithOn

...this isn't very correct

Opioids are certainly considered very potent analgesics because of their interactions with the μ, κ, and δ receptors. These generally work through inducing secondary messengers like cAMP to block calcium channels and activate potassium channels, which usually makes it much more difficult for pain sensing neurons to transmit signals. The underlying pathology of addiction is related to dopamine release in the addiction centers like the VTA, but that's certainly different from how pain is actually blocked.

Tylenol is also not a particularly strong analgesic by any stretch, but it works by inhibiting inflammatory pathways. It's often given in conjunction with opioids because it can reduce swelling and discomfort that isn't strictly pain.

Reply to comment by ColdYellowGatorade in Going on a date tomorrow near East Brunswick area and I am not very familiar with the area. What are some great restaurants/activities to do there? by abdul_bino

Same! Although my last visit was pre-pandemic so 🤷🏽. They may have also changed owners but I don’t know that for certain, although it has changed hands several times over the years and never dipped in quality.

My parents are still in the area and say it is still great but they are far from reliable in the space of food recs
