Literally anything that comes up on Amazon under "throat mic " has the same pin out, one large "post" and one small "post" with either 1 or 2 conductors each. Seems like it would be obvious to make a bt adapter for this sort of thing but I can't find one for my life. I get that you need extra steps to implement ptt but surely someone has done this?

Thanks so much

I want to find a local regular place. I recently found a brand of tequila I really like. Is it sane to ask the place to stock it if I'm willing to buy a bottle and let them hang on to it?

Obviously I have no idea if you guys absolutely have to buy by the case.

Thanks so much

I would like to design and fabricate a "Jacuzzi jet" for a small volume of water (4-6 liter), using 3d printing and/or injection molding. I have a basic understanding of how Jacuzzi jets work (venturi effect) but I need to read more. Can someone recommend any reading materials? Can I get away with a simple air pump?

Thanks so much

We have a weekly event and we would like to see who plans on showing up. We needed a simple cross platform (android/ios) solution to let people notify us they're coming (just post the first and last name to a list). Google forms is suboptimal for a variety of reasons, but we'll use it as a last resort.

Thanks so much in advance for any hints

I want to design a "landing" system for indoor uavs which will nondestructively attach and detach from ceiling pipes, struts and ducts. Obviously I could use an electromagnet, but that would drastically increase power consumption and limit me to ferromagnetic surfaces. The next thought was some electromechanical clamp, possibly with a solenoid. Does anyone know of any patents I could look at?

Thanks so much

The local Sherwin Williams says I don't need to do any prep (sanding or primer)to repaint indoor walls. Does that sound sane?

Thanks so much

Joe

Sorry, total noob here. I went to the local Sherwin Williams and got a quote for paint and supplies for an entire one bedroom. Among other things, they told me that once I open a can I pretty much have to use it immediately. Is this absolutely true? I really don't feel like doing everything at once for a wide variety of reasons.

Thanks so much

Joe

I want to design a "docking" system for my uav which will allow it to securely "land" on indoor ceiling features such as exposed I beams, pipes, and struts. I'd prefer not to use electromagnets because it will drastically increase power consumption. Can anyone recommend any existing mechanisms? Some kind of solenoid maybe?

Thanks so much

I used to swim competitively in my teens but I was breaststroke exclusively. My understanding is that this isn't really competitive. Do I need to learn freestyle, or something else?

Thanks so much

Joe

I have experience with all 3 disciplines, but the only thing I've done competitively is swimming (in my teens). I am going to do all 3 just for general health goals, but it would be pretty awesome if I could compete in 1 or 2 years. Is it realistic to expect to make the top 50% or the top 75% anywhere? (I am in NYC area).

Thanks so much

Joe

I used to swim competitively in my teens and on and off independently (both open water and pool) on and off after. I have basic understandings of all strokes, but I've always been pretty focused on the breaststroke.

I have a local Olympic pool and I'm basically in a position for the next 30 days or so where I can pretty much focus on swimming to the exclusion of anything else. After that, I can still do significant work but I wouldn't be able to go every day. In about a year, I will probably be back in school full time so I will have even less time.

Basic questions;

What is the minimum number of days/week and hours/day that I can realistically expect to get to the pool if I want to continue making gains in time, assuming I include additional cardio (cycling and running)?

Is there a research backed optimal time of day?

There are many triathlons in my area. Is it a sane goal to attempt to compete in 1 year? 2 years? Can I reasonably expect to make the top 75 % or 50 %?

Thanks so much in advance

We're in the early stages of opening a recording studio and we want to start with a few podcasts. Is there any book that can help? We want to sell advertising, but we also want to generate promotional materials that will impress "bigger" music industry players so that successful musicians will work with us.

Thanks so much in advance for any help

Joe

I'm pretty much a n00b at this sort of thing, but I found his credentials impressive. Anyone have direct experience? Which materials do you recommend I start with?

Thanks so much

Joe

I'm basically across the bridge from NYC in Jersey City NJ. I'm a total n00b. Do I have any chance whatsoever of finding anything useful on the ground in a park or near a river?

Thanks so much in advance

44yo male with hypertension. I will start swimming in the next couple days, and I'm currently out of work so I can commit to at least 2 hours a day (probably more). I have a galaxy 3 watch. What are sane initial goals for uninterrupted zone 2 times? How fast should I increase uninterrupted zone 2 times? When can I start thinking about Zone 3?

Thanks so much

Joe

I forget the guy's name, but I think he used to be Secret Service and now he's in the private sector. Most of what he talked about (in the first chapter anyway) was covert protection detail. He also mentioned a neighbor who was murdered when he was a kid, who turned out to be Mossad, I think?

Thanks so much in advance

Joe

I'm starting to look at some business opportunities in the strategic term, but right now I just want to make some friends.

Looking forward to hearing from y'all

Joe

Search can't find it, sorry.

Thanks so much
