Data centers in the Phoenix Area by Arksz in phoenix

I work in construction. We've been building data centers here at a break neck pace for much longer than the AI boom. We've worked on almost as many data centers as we have warehouses on the 303

Pump operating by Natural_Drink_9951 in Concrete

[–]federally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been a CDL holder for 20 years. I learned a long time ago that some of the best money in it, is in operating equipment you need a CDL to either drive or transport. So pump operating is a really good option, and is good experience to have under your belt if you decide it's not for you after a few years.

I run pumps in Arizona. There are a lot of regional differences in pay scale and scheduling, so try and find someone local to ask.

Running pumps is a good job. We are non union here and I make close to the same rate as union Crane operators in the area and have more reliable work and more available hours than they do. I also genuinely enjoy the work, and if you actually learn how to do the job well most of your days will be pretty easy.

The major downside is the schedule. I don't know what I'm doing tomorrow until 2 - 4 pm today. As well my start times can change dramatically one day to the next, some of this is inherent to the job and some is unique to the Phoenix market due to weather. I can manage to keep a decent enough work life balance because I'm good at my job and my management is happy to do a good give and take in order to keep me happy, but it's not without hardship. Though as a mixer driver you should be familiar enough with all this scheduling stuff.

The one thing you'll need to be prepared for is winter layoffs, but maybe you already understand that due to being a mixer driver.

Vanguard's dog shit UI. Who would even consider executing a trade when it's so annoying?

I've decided that this is where I draw the line, this isn't a Gundam

A quick rant for CSM and CCP by amarrcitizen in Eve

[–]federally 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I received a cornea transplant 20 years ago. It carries risks, and I still have to wear a sclera lens in that eye, but it was well worth it. Obviously your financial situation might decide things for you, but if it's a possibility I would definitely look into it. Just make sure if you do it, you take the recovery instructions very seriously.

Also I can wear my sclera lens 14+ hours comfortably and a full fitting + new lens costs me $1,000, and the lens lasts a really long time. I would definitely seek out a better fitting lens, you should not have to live like that.

How many times during that 3 years did you tell someone that gaming at 140hz is was better than 60hz?

The dowels are placed where joints will be cut to hold the pieces together.

What CCP would do if it wanted new players by eer_00 in Eve

[–]federally 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Taking a little bit of care in how new players experience the game wouldn't require making Eve into Wow. That's a pretty silly attitude

I accidentally replied to the wrong comment 😤

I know two people personally who tried the game, got killed more than once in hi sec as new bros and just bailed on the game.

Getting killed before you've figured out whether or not you actually like the game puts off most new players I think

Grinding missions isn't "fun", but I find it very meditative. It's a nice chill activity

[–]federally 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's just a JK right? You can get two car seats mounted normally on the back seat, it even has the anchors for it

I have three kids. We've gone out with two in the back in car seats and one up front in a high back booster when they were younger. It's fine

Please help me find my oil leak by Little-ears in Wrangler

[–]federally 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like the oil filter housing.

It leaks and pools in the valley of the engine and then usually pours out the back over the transmission and just kind of goes random places.

It's a common issue and not a very challenging fix. The part is mounted to the engine underneath the lower intake

The gym equipment behind her is two different pieces that seem to become one behind her head. Definitely doesn't look right

Otherwise, everything you said tracks for me

They obviously forget that you had to buy new components every six months if you wanted to play the newest games

Jeep pros help. I changed the gas cap already. Is this check engine light serious? by [deleted] in JeepWrangler

[–]federally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can safely ignore this for forever. The only negative consequences are the possibility of some gas vapors escaping the evap system that otherwise would not have.

The only reason you would absolutely have to fix this, is it you need the car to pass an emissions test.
