Which job is a LOT less fun than most people expect?
| Archaeologist. Did it during my twenties and that was more than enough. Long, hot days... living out of cheap motels on shit pay, and you typically find nothing more than some pieces of glass and broken pottery. Every once in a blue moon you find something cool, but those items generally end up getting stored away in a box full of other artifacts never to be seen again. | |
| Zookeeper. Don't get me wrong, it's awesome to be around so many amazing animals and care for them...
But the smells are ridiculously, insanely foul.
I have a really strong stomach and it's still tough for me...we've had some interns quit over it.
I was warned about the smells when getting into the field, but thought "oh I've volunteered at animal shelters, I know what animal stink smells like"
Nope. Not even close.
...
Otters - I don't think I know a single person who works with otters who's not bothered by the smell. They are related to ferrets, so they have super strong musk (way stronger than ferrets) and smear it everywhere. They also eat nothing but fish, and you really can smell it in their oily, gooey poop.
Big Cats. Out in the open it's not so bad, but I've thrown up in the nighthouses/rain shelters before. Huge, 6-pound piles of cat shit all over the floor, with no litter to mask the smell. Unneutered male lions will spray too, like a cat. One lion makes enough spray to make the whole place smell like a cat hoarder's house.
Vultures - their puke can melt metal and repels lions. It is hands down the worst thing I have ever experienced in my 30+ years on the planet. There are just no words to describe the pure molten hot rotting diaper stench that is vulture vomit.
Penguins - fishy oily bird stink. They’re cute though so they get a pass.
Anteaters with diarrhea - insect based watery shits are horrid | |
| Acting. All the ones we see on TV and movies are the 0.0001% of incredibly lucky and talented people who managed to thrive in a hostile and overcrowded industry.
And even when you are working, the actual job itself is 99% sitting on apple crate in hot makeup waiting for some grips to move a lighting fixture. Then you say three lines over and over again for an hour, and then you wrap. | |

Vor allem: Der Grund für die Distanz zur Reflexion beim normalen Spiegel ist das Glas zur Stabilisierung und zum Schutz vor Kratzern vor der dünnen Metallschicht, die die Spiegelung verursacht. Wenn du das Metall anders schützt, stabilisierst und sauber hältst, brauchst du kein Glas. Alte Spiegel waren z.B. meist einfach flach Metallflächen.

Man könnte auch sagen, dass die Scheibe das Trägermaterial der Metallfolie/Staubschicht ist, um die überhaupt mechanisch zusammenzuhalten.

László Polgár heiratete eine Frau und zeugte Kinder mit ihr, um zu beweisen, dass Talent nicht existiert und Übung den Meister macht.
| In 1965 Polgár "conducted an epistolary courtship with a Ukrainian foreign language teacher named Klara." In his letters, he outlined the pedagogical project he had in mind. In reading those biographies, he had "identified a common theme—early and intensive specialization in a particular subject." Certain that "he could turn any healthy child into a prodigy," he "needed a wife willing to jump on board." | |

tl;dw ist: ggf. der talentierteste Trickshot-Bogenschütze der Welt und sicherlich auch guter Bogenschießer.
Ist mal sehr negativ angeeckt, weil er sich sehr offensiv mit historischen Behauptungen beworben hat. Dass er die wahre und vergessene Schießkunst “wiederentdeckt” habe und so. Halbgar belegt mit historischen Texten, wo das nicht so genau drinsteht.

| I'm done with Lars Andersen.
I've long held the belief that all archers, of all styles, and those who are major figures in the archery community, have a mutual respect for each other.
This mutual respect is over.
Lars Andersen has proven again, beyond all doubt, that he considers himself above all others - and most alarmingly, that he is above safety.
No man - no master - is above mistakes.
His latest video, "A Modern Wilhelm Tell", involves him shooting cans off people's heads. Real arrows, real shots. No safeguards.
An activity that is so dangerous, some archery organisation specifically forbid anything RESEMBLING shooting at human silhouettes in their laws and regulations to DISCOURAGE anyone from attempting it.
Andersen flagrantly discards all reason and common sense for the sake of "entertainment".[...] | |

| The Horsey Horseless was an early automobile created by Uriah Smith. It contained a wooden horse head and neck attached to the front of the car, intended to make it resemble a horse and carriage so as not to frighten horses on the road. | |

25 Minuten, wie ein sehr sympathischer Brite ein absurdes Sudoku löst. Wer ungeduldig ist, kann auf 3:40 vorspulen wo er das Rätsel zum ersten Mal sieht, aber es kommt deutlich besser wenn man vorher auch gemütlich die Einführung anschaut. Und es ist eine Freude, zuzuschauen, wie er von "wtf" zu "was für ein schönes Rätsel" übergeht.
/Machen die das Rätsel in die Videovorschau. Finde ich nicht okay, den Spoiler.
