1 AnswerSkin Conditions4 years agoDo I need to file taxes for a small group event that I charge fees for?
I run weekend camping adventures once a month. It's gotten too expensive so I'm enforcing a $20 fee. Thinking about getting a square card swipe thing for my cell phone for those people that never carry cash. I spend everything people pay to attend for an entire weekend and more. Doubt total cash coming in will exceed $2000 for the year. Plus I'm spending that to run this for people. Do I need to keep track of receipts and such or is that too little. Is the IRS gonna take notice of a few hundred dollars on a square reader?

3 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs4 years agoWhen building a tesla coil would having too many capacitors be bad? I'm making caps from scratch and was just going to make a bunch?
Dimension of each is like 3 ft x 1ft of aluminum on a sheet of plastic. I have 20 but I was gonna make 10 more. It's a 10kv transformer. Currently running 10 in series. Plastic is pretty sturdy. Like that of a tarp.
3 AnswersEngineering4 years agoAny way to retrieve pictures from galaxy S7 when I can't use the screen to put it in media transfer mode or turn on USB debugging?
My screen broke and I'd like to get the pictures and videos off of it. But without being able to see the screen I can't see it and none of the programs I've used have worked. Photos are on internal storage.
1 AnswerCell Phones & Plans4 years agoWhy is liberal a bad word?
You turn on the TV Fox news CNN whatever. And you see these groups of people who want special treatment and blah blah blah. And the right responds saying these liberals are terrible people. All liberals are like this. All democrats are liberals. Just this big blanket statement taking everyone who thinks differently than them and labeling them a liberal like it's a bad thing. Do these far left crybabies even publicly claim to be a liberal? I've never seen a protester holding a sign claiming to be a liberal. I've never seen the far left make that statement either. The word liberal is only brought up by the right. Liberal literally means people are open to new behaviors or seeking general knowledge. So why does the right label the intolerant far left minority as liberals and try to toss everyone in there with them.
11 AnswersPolitics4 years agoWill I lose strength if I try to get toned and work in the higher rep range?
I've spent a lot of time trying to build up my strength and put on some muscle mass. I weight 180lbs. Used to be 130. Squatt and deadlift maxes are happily over 250 lbs. My bench kinda got stuck at around 200lbs. I currently have a little more fat than I'd like. You can still see my abs but not like you used too. I've been considering changing my workouts to do some toning. Been working in the 3-5 rep range on main lifts. and 8-12 on other lifts. Was thinking of going up to 8-12 reps on main lifts and 20 reps on some others in order to burn more calories and get toned. My concern is if I do this will my max go down or remain the same if I work with lower weight like 135-155 at higher reps instead of 155-225 at lower reps
1 AnswerDiet & Fitness4 years agoWhat fitness goal should I set now? Just hit my goal and not sure what should be my next focus for a good physique.?
25 year old male. 5'9 and around 180 lbs. Always been a skinny guy who weighed around 130lbs before. Put on mostly muscle. I can pinch my belly and there's about a 1 inch fold. Many say I should keep this small reserve. Others say Toning up would look cool. I bench right at 200 max. Squat and deadlift between 250 and 300. I can rep 225 on both 3-5 times but rarely max because I have scoliosis. I've been doing the wolverine mutant strength workout that hugh jackman did. Wondering if I should just stick with that workout or change it up. Diet Breakfast 3 eggs, sausage, 2 pieces of toast, spinach, onion. Snack pack of crackers. lunch varies a lot between 500 cals and 30 grams of protein to 1000 cals and 60 grams. Crackers for a snack again, 205 cals and 7 grams protein in these. Protein shake with fruit, 350-500 cals and 40 grams of protein. Dinner varies, Rice and chicken or beef. Should I tweak diet? Add cardio? Get on a new program? Not sure if I want to be bigger or leaner. Would like to be in good shape for practical use. Working outside, fighting, survival, sports. I also have a very small frame.
1 AnswerDiet & Fitness4 years agohelp calculating capacitance of homemade capacitor and how much voltage it can take.?
It's a thin layer of black plastic. I'm layering plastic and aluminum foil. About 1 foot by 3 feet of surface area on each. How many farads would that be and how many thousand volts can each one take? Getting back into Tesla coil stuff on a budget.
2 AnswersEngineering4 years agoDream interpretation: Dying and nobody cares?
I've had a dream before where I was shot in the stomach and nobody acted like it was a big deal. They were friendly but not sympathetic. Strangely after a bit I realized I wasn't going to die from it.
But last nights dream left me in a sweaty panic. I had some form of cancer and a bad leg and had to get special treatment at a hospital in another city. So my family and friends flew with me there. On the plane everyone was friendly. But when we landed they ditched me. Not only that, the entire airport was empty. I was hurting and shouting for help and had to find my way alone. I finally opened a door to the hospital like place. Still calling for help and people ignored me. My toddler sister was rude and not understanding. my 22 year old younger brother (I'm 25) and my best friend and others were sitting at a dinner show watching this comedian. His mic was way to loud. They could hear me but I was shouting at them trying to get them to acknowledge my existence. Finally they got angry with me and a doctor took me away to my room. I get up later to confront them again. I ask why they left me and they said it's because I yelled. I specified why they left me at the airport. What happened on the plane? So they began conveying dreams and images of a dark man. They showed me youtube videos of random stuff with a black figure walking across the screen. Then I look up and my brothers eyes are black. His face dimensions skew and he tells me I'm not real.
2 AnswersDream Interpretation4 years agoI'm a left leaning moderate with no tolerance for racism or BS. My family is racist and hard right Christian conservative. Thanksgiving soon?
What am I going to do? I've always gotten really really really baked before thanksgiving. I was always too busy drooling over food behind my shades. Last time I went over to my grandmas sober I cussed out my aunt and called them all racists hypocrites. I don't smoke anymore and now I can't ignore stuff. As much as I'd love to just tell everyone we aren't talking about politics what am I supposed to do when my granddad starts a story with "I saw this little N***er boy the other day walking on the side of the road" My mom has been convinced for the past 8 years a race war is coming and jesus will return. She's disappointed because she and my grandma legit thought Obama was the Anti-Christ. Now they think Trump is our savior. I posted up on facebook asking Trump supporters to denounce the Racists that are following Trump. Only fair since they asked the same of muslims and isis. I got no response saying racism is wrong. Instead my mom and aunt are responding how it's blacks who are the problem and that Obama and the left are oppressing white Christians.
4 AnswersFamily4 years agoCan anxiety or adrenaline cause your blood sugar to drop?
I have a really fast metabolism. If I go too long without eating I get symptoms of hypoglycemia. When I encounter a confrontation like someone wants to fight unless I have just finished eating I get the same symptoms. Like it's more than nerves I feel weak and sick literally have to go drink some juice or I feel like I'll pass out.

2 AnswersDental5 years agoDoes electrolysis of water work with high voltage and low amperage? How should I space my plates?
I'm testing an alternative energy source that supplies over 2,000 volts at .3 amps or less. Will this still separate the hydrogen and oxygen? And Do I need to space the plates very far apart or close together?
1 AnswerChemistry5 years agoHow do capacitors work? Is energy stored on the plates or the dielectric? How does surface area factor in?
I've heard energy is stored on the plates. Or rather an imbalance is created. But I've also heard the dielectric stores energy too. I've made capacitors before with plastic and aluminum foil. I get more surface area means it can store more energy. My friend is convinced that you can increase the surface area of the plates by adding tiny pits or folds or raised areas with activated grapheme and get a capacitor that holds more energy without increasing the dielectrics surface area. Essentially making a high voltage ultra capacitor with something like glass as the dielectric between two graphene plates. Will this work or will we just get a capacitor with the same properties as one that uses other flat metals.
