Benefits of Having a Weighing Scale at Home
We use many gadgets in our daily lives for a variety of purposes. Our daily lives are enriched by weighing scales, which help us manage our weight conveniently at home. There are many advantages to using these machines, such as their efficiency, ease of use, and accuracy. With digital scales, you can easily plan your daily diet because they are simple to use. Weighing machines are therefore essential for everyone at home.
Weighing Scales: Reasons to Have Them at Home
In addition, using a weighing machine at home offers many advantages and conveniences. Weighing machines have the primary advantage of providing information about your body when you step on them. Moreover, you can measure your weight and other parameters from the comfort of your own home. Here are some of the benefits of having a weighing scale.
1. Poor Diet and Obesity
Obesity is an increasing trend among Indians, as most of us are aware. We all know that obesity has been linked to early death, stroke, heart attacks, type 2 diabetes, and cancer, according to the CDC (Center for Disease Control). When it comes to our body weight, this is really something we need to keep in mind. A good habit is the key to resolving the problem. Weighing ourselves regularly should definitely become a daily habit when we discuss good habits. It only takes a few seconds!
However, it's not just about gaining weight. Even people without obesity have an increased risk of the above-mentioned health problems. Body constitutions change significantly as a result of poor dietary habits. It is possible to have a disproportionate amount of body weight without being obese. This is why it is so important to have regular checks of your total body weight. Having a body weighing machine at home makes this process simple.
2. A System With Intelligence:
For their daily use, everyone prefers efficient and smarter products. It is therefore important to have a weighing scale at home. Your health can be monitored effectively with these devices thanks to their high accuracy. In addition, they are affordable and user-friendly, making them easy to use.
Moreover, using a home weighing machine will improve your mood and provide better control over your health when you are managing your weight at home. As a result, you can stay motivated for your fitness goals all the time with this intelligent device.
3. It Promotes Better Practices:
In comparison to traditional weighing scales, digital scales are more convenient to use. You can track your weight and other body parameters easily with their advanced technologies. You can learn new things and stay motivated for your fitness goals when you have a weighing scale at home. In addition, it encourages you to improve your habits, allowing you to concentrate on weight loss rather than other activities.
A weighing machine with advanced features allows you to track body weight, body fat, and BMI, as well as several other parameters that can help you improve your health. This is why it is a good idea to have a weighing scale at home.
4. Achieves Accurate Results:
Using weighing scales at home also provides accurate measurement results, which makes them a great option. Using high-precision sensors, the latest weighing machines measure body weight and other parameters precisely. In addition, they allow you to monitor your health more accurately after each measurement. You can also choose between kilograms and pounds when measuring weight, so you can easily switch measurement results.
A traditional weighing machine requires periodic scaling to provide accurate results. When used properly, advanced body weighing machines provide accurate results and are easy to use. Due to their design, they can withstand weight fluctuations while in use.
Conclusion:
Every household needs a weighing scale due to its effectiveness and benefits. Using these devices, you can easily track your body weight, body fat, and other vital parameters at home. In addition to being technologically advanced, they are also highly efficient. Aside from that, these machines support the weighing of ingredients in the kitchen when preparing delicious recipes. In conclusion, weighing scales make your life easier at home.

Could I request Medic having The Mom Grip on Scout’s shoulder after the speedy moron almost let a mercenary secret slip while they weee getting groceries?
Three Europeans and two Americans walk into a grocery store in New Mexico.
I hope this is the right meme.
More silliness below.
This comic is the antithesis of the "wtf is a kilometre" joke.
The faces they make when they can't quite identify the type of brown bread in the bread aisle.
You don't know how [insert nationality here] you are until you go overseas and things are different.
Spy obviously has no problems with pretending to know how much a gallon of milk is, he just peeks into his conversion chart notes, pretending it's his shopping list.
I want to think Heavy is completely fine with having to readjust to a new unit system, he just eyeballs most practical things anyways by holding them up and mumbling about how they approximately weigh like a chicken or his kettle bell etc. He's always been living in practical ignorant bliss.
Medic has a peer reviewed meltdown the first time he realises there's no uniformity in "a cup of ____" because every object has different densities. He's diligent about memorising the conversion rates for ounces, pounds, the most common things etc., and recovers ok. He goes through the same stages of grief rage when he finds out about distances and lengths.
Just remember four inches are 10.16 cm and pray no one asks you to specify anything bigger than inches.
Everyone does a mental victory lap when they manage to guess how much Celsius the weather is because they keep forgetting it's Celsius*5/9+32=Fahrenheit, Engineer reminds them patiently.
The true victories are the correct temperature guesses we've made along the way.
One time, a friend asked me if I actually knew how much a tablespoon of flour was in gramms to convince me that metric users also make use of volume based units without thinking about them. But little did she know a heaped spoonful of 405 flour is about 15g and a level tablespoon is 10g.
They claim Oolong just tastes better when it's boiled to 80°C exactly with a Bunsen burner.
You only asked for one scene but somehow I came up with a bunch of other things. This post was drawn across 2 months so the artstyle is all over the place. Thanks for your ask!

Prompt 274
You know what is fun? Baby Ghost Jason. You know what could be even more fun? Ghosts are Dragons.
Jason? Aware of none of this.
He was on comms, y’know listening and rolling his eyes at Dickwing, who used his real name, really Dick, he mocks. It’s just a stakeout, nothing new there, honestly boring when he could be blowing something up instead. It should have just been a stakeout.
Yet there’s something suddenly there, something behind him. Something that causes his hair to stand on end and his comms to spark into static like some sort of horror movie. Something, something with clawed hands with corpse-pale skin tipped in black, stained or dead or something else, tilting his head up and up and up as he’s frozen.
“A child, out here? Alone?” a voice crackles, hisses, hums, and purrs, somehow all at once, unnatural in its tone. He can’t move, he needs to move, he has to move, but it’s like the space around him has gone cold and dead, like he’s stuck in the Pits once more as claws hold his head and his vision blurs. “Sleep, child. Rest- we’ll be home soon.”

IN THE FALL OF 2020, GIG WORKERS IN VENEZUELA POSTED A SERIES OF images to online forums where they gathered to talk shop. The photos were mundane, if sometimes intimate, household scenes captured from low angles—including some you really wouldn’t want shared on the Internet.
In one particularly revealing shot, a young woman in a lavender T-shirt sits on the toilet, her shorts pulled down to mid-thigh.
The images were not taken by a person, but by development versions of iRobot’s Roomba J7 series robot vacuum. They were then sent to Scale AI, a startup that contracts workers around the world to label audio, photo, and video data used to train artificial intelligence.
They were the sorts of scenes that internet-connected devices regularly capture and send back to the cloud—though usually with stricter storage and access controls. Yet earlier this year, MIT Technology Review obtained 15 screenshots of these private photos, which had been posted to closed social media groups.
The photos vary in type and in sensitivity. The most intimate image we saw was the series of video stills featuring the young woman on the toilet, her face blocked in the lead image but unobscured in the grainy scroll of shots below. In another image, a boy who appears to be eight or nine years old, and whose face is clearly visible, is sprawled on his stomach across a hallway floor. A triangular flop of hair spills across his forehead as he stares, with apparent amusement, at the object recording him from just below eye level.
iRobot—the world’s largest vendor of robotic vacuums, which Amazon recently acquired for $1.7 billion in a pending deal—confirmed that these images were captured by its Roombas in 2020.
Ultimately, though, this set of images represents something bigger than any one individual company’s actions. They speak to the widespread, and growing, practice of sharing potentially sensitive data to train algorithms, as well as the surprising, globe-spanning journey that a single image can take—in this case, from homes in North America, Europe, and Asia to the servers of Massachusetts-based iRobot, from there to San Francisco–based Scale AI, and finally to Scale’s contracted data workers around the world (including, in this instance, Venezuelan gig workers who posted the images to private groups on Facebook, Discord, and elsewhere).
Together, the images reveal a whole data supply chain—and new points where personal information could leak out—that few consumers are even aware of.

so there's this post that talks about how people call jason's curved knife a kris but it's not a kris 'cuz why would he have a southeast asian knife? and op's tags say if you're gonna give him an 'exotic' weapon at least make him malay or something. a later reblog adds a filipino kris as an example, and then i was like, 'omg, jason in a barong tho.' SO i tried designing a bat-barong inspired by his hood logo, for a filipino jason haha. and now here we are! 😊✨️🇵🇭
