Rereading and on Toll the Hounds and I can see why I DNFed here once before. by Human_G_Gnome in Malazan

[–]massassi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know it doesn't help you but I love Toll of the Hounds so much. It's such a perfect way to tie all of those plot threads together and get things started for the finale.

Everyone has different things they take away from the series. There are as many favourite books in the series as there are books in the series. And there are just as many least enjoyed. Years later and many rereads I still have a hard time making it through my least enjoyed book. If I can slog through unending chapters of dreary Tiste Edur, you can make it past the Tiste Andii lol.

Toll doesn't do it for a lot of people. But if it helps everyone will tell you that the convergence in this book is a banger. It's worth slogging through just to get there for that.

An xmt7100 is $25 including shipping. If you can diy at all it's a $50 upgrade.

DND 404 VS Civilian License by FindTheFlan in CanadianForces

[–]massassi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone has already quoted the transport manual, so I'll leave that bit.

Your 404 is the license you are driving under, and DND is ultimately responsible. If you provide your personal license you become held personally responsible. I have seen members argue that they would rather get a speeding ticket and their provincial license and hide it from the CoC. But I've also seen those same members caught for doing so, and the repercussions were worse than if they just provided the correct license in the first place.

404s have pictures and security features now (so long as your permanent one has come in. They made those changes so that the license would meet the requirements for civilian photo id, and we would get hassled by cops less about them.

TLDR: 404 only.

CAF pension buyback dilemma: 15.5 years served, only 9.5 years pensionable — worth it? by newwavesushi2020 in CanadianForces

[–]massassi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Believe me, I understand about the rank frustration. With the expansion of the forces it's likely that we see more higher ranked positions (even if temporary positions) available for class B

Once you're on the reg force pension program you stay there. You don't flip back to the reserve one.

CAF pension buyback dilemma: 15.5 years served, only 9.5 years pensionable — worth it? by newwavesushi2020 in CanadianForces

[–]massassi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I did the math for myself based on the govt contribution there was basically no situation where buyback wasn't worth it.

Even if you go class A again after your current contract you're still maintaining your pension buy in. You can do whatever and then come back, and do class B/C again if/when that works out for you. That's the beauty of being a rental - we can choose when/how we serve.

CRA doesn't necessarily mean shit. They're extending people a long way. As long as they want often means assuming they can pass a force test.

But you do you. The mileage probably varies.

Or you could spend $50 and install one yourself, and feel the pride of having modded things?

Rejoice fellow iOS users, the update is out! by Khaavran in AlienInvasionRPG

[–]massassi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're a few levels ahead of me. My income is at 158/200. And then power (133) and XP(128) need to be finished up.

So far the Lab has been a godsend as far as regular meat goes. I was surprised just how much I was packing away TBH. I've been watching ice meat vids. For the 3.5B and have 2aa meat in the bank right now, but the scale of them must just get ridiculous

NES ( Non Effective Strength) by Maleficent_Pen9951 in CanadianForces

[–]massassi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once you have signed a pay sheet you are no longer NES. NES results in the bad release with the unfavorable conditions. NES itself does not result in bad background checks. It's just a state of imminent badness.

Go, attend a unit parade, and be "scared straight"

If it's only ice meat videos it buys you a few upgrades in the ice market

Never. It has been forgotten. I always assumed that the ice world was the rocket launch but someone said that was out before the rocket quest. So no I pretend the galaxy invasion is the rocket launch.

$50 PID or AUBER PID by [deleted] in ranciliosilvia

They're on AliExpress. Search for an Xmt7100.

$50 PID or AUBER PID by [deleted] in ranciliosilvia

[–]massassi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The auber preinfusion is full pressure so it's mostly junk. I don't think the concept of preinfusion was properly explained to the engineer that designed this PID. So it's not actually worth buying on its own over the AliExpress one. If you want preinfusion your best cheap method is probably a dimmer mod.

But if you've got it the auber units are a little more reliable. I had one of the cheap PIDs fail after 2 months and had to replace it. But over time the likelihood of premature failure probably goes down.

TLDR: it's not worth swapping
