I bought a semi-expensive scanner years ago to scan in old slides and negatives my folks had in boxes for years. After I finally got through all of those I’ve been trying to justify the purchase by scanning things on a semi regular basis. \n\nI’ve even begged friends to let me scan theirs in for them. I paid for this thing, I want to use it as much as possible. ", "I've thought about doing this before. If you wouldn't mind me asking, what scanner do you have? Or do you have any advice on choosing a scanner if you were to look for one now?", "I have an Epson v600. I like it because it has a light in the lid necessary for slides and negatives. Plus it'll go up to 12800dpi should I ever need to scan something at that level.\n\nI think it was $300 when I bought it years ago, but it's around $200 now. It's been great for someone like me that's using it for a hobby. \n\nThe only thing I believe the scanner is lacking is a larger back light area for slides. As of right now I can only scan in 4 slides at a time. I buy slides in bulk 200-800 slides at a time and the process takes forever.", "I would look around for a local estate auction or cleanout service. Tell them that you would be interested in purchasing slides they find in estates.", "That’s what I try to do. I keep an eye out but it’s hard getting to them with work and personal obligations. That’s why I just check eBay on a regular basis and estate shop when I can. ", "Hijacking this thread to ask a related question: if I have several 50 gallon bins of photos in various formats, what's my best option for digitizing? A service? A device? Thanks!", "For that size a service is going to be your best bet. But it'll be expensive. Scanning in slides and negatives is a slow and tedious project. It relaxes me so I don't mind doing it by hand. But I only do them hundreds at a time, not thousands. ", "Why? Dick pics?", "OMG! How can i get this original picture? I so want to print this on a canvas and hang it on my wall! ", "Thank you!" ]

The more important thing is that building muscle increases your resting metabolic rate, which will be helpful for maintaining your goal weight. It's already harder to gain muscle when you're on a calorie deficit, so starting earlier while you still have more body fat to burn might be beneficial.

I've spent the last 6 month's slowly changing things in my life, so that I could set myself up for success, instead of a dramatic change that would typically only last like 2 weeks. I traded soda for sweet tea, then traded that for unsweet with sweetner, finally started drinking water and I haven't been tempted to go back to soda anymore.

That type of soreness generally goes away. \n\nBuilding muscle will help even out the appearance of your body a tremendous amount as you're losing weight, and you may not gain muscle as quickly as when you have more \"free\" energy to spare than when you have less. \n\nIt's only a bonus that your body will burn a little more. It may sound silly but it is nice starting to move things with ease once you gain some noticeable strength. The gym is also a really good place to zone out and kind of meditate.

My chest is recovering while I'm doing back and leg training, my back is recovering while I'm training legs and chest, etc. It's not the same deal as if I were working every muscle group every day. \n\n\nFor me, I do this type of routine because a full body routine doesn't give me enough volume for each body part anymore.

And it just wouldn't be productive most likely. \n\n\nYou also don't necessarily need to rest the same muscle groups every other day. Olympic lifters perform a couple basic lifts, and they often do the same lifts 5+ days per week, and continue to get stronger. Some powerlifters do the same lift multiple days in a row per week and get stronger. Lifting isn't just about muscle growth, there are neurological improvements and technical improvements as well.

You’re assuming that obese people react mentally and physically to food the same way normal people do. The science behind fullness and satiety isn’t fully known yet, hence the numerous studies looking into things like leptin.\n\nSo to point A. For a lot of obese people their hunger signals are out of wack. A normal person eats when hungry, stops eating when full (which means eating a normal amount of food) and then doesn’t think about food and has no desire to eat until many hours later. The only conscious decision is “do I eat leftovers or do I order take out.” For obese and formerly obese people eating until not hungry means overeating. Eating to lose /maintain weight means never being satisfied, frequent hunger and constant intrusive thoughts about food. \n\nB) not all obesity studies rely on self reported food intake. I was referring more to studies looking into body chemistry, like insulin resistance, leptin resistance, dopamine response etc. And the Biggest Loser study was also of note for looking at weight and directly observed metabolic rate. \n\n\nA good way to think about it is to replace food with cigarettes. Someone who has never smoked will react to the sight cigarettes very differently to a former smoker. We don’t tell smokers “Just stop smoking it’s easy! I’ve never smoked but I have 0 desire to smoke so it should be exactly the same for you!”\n\nInstead we recognize it’s an addiction, and that quitting requires a combination of willpower, nicotine patches, avoiding places that sell cigarettes, therapy, prescription drugs etc... \n\nBut with obesity it’s “just stop eating! Easy!” While stigmatizing medicine, surgery and not even mentioning seeing a doctor or a therapist. And then get all mad when the person is amoung the 95% who gain all their weight back. CICO (on its own) for the vast majority of people will not work because it never becomes a habit. \n\nThis is entirely anecdotal, but for 10 years I tried different forms of calorie counting, and it never worked because I’d always fall into binge-restrict cycles. Went to a doctor who instead of dismissing my binges as “just get more willpower and stop eating” actually addressed the issue. He put me on Keto and I lost *most* of what I needed to lose. And it’s been almost 2 years and the weight’s stayed off. Even though I’m maintaining, I don’t have any new habits. I calorie count the way I always have, but now I actually have knowledge of how to deal with what used to prevent me from falling off the bandwagon.", "It's ok to be wrong dude.

We'd sometimes get the big ole XXL bullies that look quite like rhinoceros hybrids, and people would take one look and get all frightened (even the big guys), but just handle the dog and you find that they're mostly just docile, slobbery, babies. \n\nThe only really sad thing is how much people over-breed them where I live.

They're viewed as risky. And frankly, they can be. About 80% of dog bite fatalities involve APBTs. The next breed on the list, Rottweilers, is responsible for only 9% by comparison.\n\nPit bulls were bred to bait bears and bulls. One of the main characteristics sought after when choosing which dogs to breed was a quality called \"gameness,\" which is why the link in the top comment calls them 'gamedogs.' A dog being referred to as 'game' means that once they set themselves to a task, they're going to see it through in spite of anything. They're not the only dogs bred for high game; jack russels and Scottish terriers are as well. A dog that will even pursue its given job until it dies is referred to as being \"dead game.\" It's a big deal to have a dead game dog if you're going up against bears or badgers, as they're likely to turn around and fuck your world up if your dog wusses out and gives up.\n\nPit bulls were also bred to have a different bite pattern than other dogs. Instead of snapping here and there, they latch on and tear without letting go. Again: great when you're up against a bear. To add to this, they were selected for low rates of human aggression and high rates of animal aggression. Makes sense.\n\nThe issue isn't that pit bulls bite a lot. The problem is that when they *do* bite, they don't stop. They're brick shithouses with steel traps for jaws, and when they decide to lash out they're going to see that target eliminated. That particular mix of qualities can be very, very dangerous in the hands of an inexperienced owner. It's one thing when your dead game scottie decides that it's going to attack you.

The article claims historical precedent, but that alone is not a good reason to subject an animal to a painful and unnecessary procedure. I'd also like to see their sources stating that ear cropping improves a dog's hearing. The only evidence I found was a boxer breeder from 1993 who claimed it helped her dogs hear better, which is antecdotal evidence at best. Additionally, most of the dogs in America are family pets, not working on a farm or hunting or catching rats, so there's not that same risk of getting hurt/caught that was historically cited for cropping ears.

In the past at least most breeds were created/used for a specific purpose. Hunting, sledding, etc.\n\nToday we just breed dogs for arbitrary physical traits. We breed for certain characteristics to the point where they are detrimental to the dogs' health. So many pure breds suffer from conditions directly related to breeding. It's a silly thing to keep doing and we know better, but people would rather that these dogs suffer (or at the very least experience significantly worse quality of life than they would have otherwise) because they think dogs with smushy faces are cute.\n\nNot to mention the fact that we kill over 7 million healthy, loving dogs and cats every year as a result of overpopulation.

They're viewed as risky. And frankly, they can be. About 80% of dog bite fatalities involve APBTs. The next breed on the list, Rottweilers, is responsible for only 9% by comparison.\n\n>Pit bulls were bred to bait bears and bulls. One of the main characteristics sought after when choosing which dogs to breed was a quality called \"gameness,\" which is why the link in the top comment calls them 'gamedogs.' A dog being referred to as 'game' means that once they set themselves to a task, they're going to see it through in spite of anything. They're not the only dogs bred for high game; jack russels and Scottish terriers are as well. A dog that will even pursue its given job until it dies is referred to as being \"dead game.\" It's a big deal to have a dead game dog if you're going up against bears or badgers, as they're likely to turn around and fuck your world up if your dog wusses out and gives up.\n\n>Pit bulls were also bred to have a different bite pattern than other dogs. Instead of snapping here and there, they latch on and tear without letting go. Again: great when you're up against a bear. To add to this, they were selected for low rates of human aggression and high rates of animal aggression. Makes sense.\n\n>The issue isn't that pit bulls bite a lot. The problem is that when they do bite, they don't stop. They're brick shithouses with steel traps for jaws, and when they decide to lash out they're going to see that target eliminated.

They may ask slightly different variations such as \"have you ever been charged with a crime?\" or \"have you ever been arrested?\" but there is generally no obligation to answer those. That said, that lack of obligation does _not_ equal a lack of consequences.

They do not have access to advanced care, however. Nor do many systems have an option where those who want and are able to front more resources can seek out immediate care instead of waiting in line for their governmental services.\n\nFor example, Canada. They have very cheap prescriptions, but new drugs often don't make it on the list of treatments for many years after they are invented and available in the US. Specialist visits are often delayed by many weeks due to rationing. It is illegal to 'line jump'. They literally don't have any private practice specialists in the country that take cash for their services. \n\nTo a freedom loving American, that is draconian beyond measure. Healthcare decisions are extremely personal and critical. Governmental bureaucrats deciding what I get, instead of me and my doctor deciding what I need and getting it to me right away, is anathema to a free society.\n\nI'm not saying we don't have problems. Due to the insurance system we have created, the actual cost of our own healthcare decisions are impossibly obscured to the patient. We are not actually given the proper amount of information to make a cost/benefit analysis of our healthcare in many situations. Do I really need robotic prostate surgery at $45k for a 99.3% success rate, when a normal surgery at $6 has a 98.9% success rate? I've already maxed my deductible for my health insurance this year, so either one is free, ofc I'll pick the robotic every time.\n\nGovernment healthcare looks at the back end and just tells everyone they don't get robotic surgery, cause it's too expensive. In 10 years after the US has perfected it and it's only $10k, then maybe some of the socialized medicine countries will adopt the new tech.

No. It's because at a social (and practical) level, society acknowledges that there is no justifiable reason to steal from another person's home, and that the very act itself—even in the absence of weaponry on the burglar—is an individual and societal threat that cannot be tolerated.\n\nWell, kidnapping and raping a child seems like a similar thing. No, we can't collectively, explicitly condone such vigilantism. But we also can't bring ourselves to condemn it as fully as our stated morals suggest we should.", "Very true.
