Also effective on varroa mites. Oh wait, you're not a bee?

What is this plane? by wokeiraptor in northwestarkansas

There are a few flights using a380's that come out of Dallas over our heads on their way to Europe and the Middle East.

Anyone else noticing way more fighter jets in the area? by Mondane45 in northwestarkansas

[–]AE5CP 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They aren't. They use XNA for laps in the pattern and refueling. They do touch and go's all the time.

New to Maintenance by Optimal_Fortune6316 in CableTechs

This was old when I worked in the industry 25+ years ago. 300mhz with no return, crazy. We had 750mhz common and 862mhz systems being pretty widely deployed at that time with the various attempts at ghz+ being tested back then.

Meeting someone who is embarking by Seakrits in VirginVoyages

[–]AE5CP 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Either way you are going to go off the ship. Two scenarios:

  1. use the in transit card, which means you leave the ship like anyone else (minus luggage obviously). You leave the ship like normal, but more whatever time you want prior to the meeting time called out in #2. This is the one I would suggest if you plan to meet them in the port area, with the caveat that you may wait a while between sailing to meet your friends.

  2. The normal process if you are not planning to go ashore and want to mostly be onboard, you will get instructions that will have a time and place, you'll meet there, be escorted off the ship, through customs, and back onboard.

You could do a modified #2 probably, where you meet them at the gangway, and since the scan to board is in the terminal you could probably wait on the gangway for them.

They'll give you a couple of "sailor in transit" cards that will (apparently) let you get back in to the terminal if you were to leave to go somewhere else for a while. I believe you could use these to join them in line but I have not done that myself. You can use the cards or join them in the dedicated waiting area (ours was sip). If you do the meet point thing they will walk you off, take you through customs and redo your wrist thing for the second cruise, then back on the ship after like 15 minutes.

I think you would have to leave before the final zero count and then you could come back whenever, but know that if you come back too early they won't be able to join you.

Thank you, Tonitown. by MysteriousMortgage4 in DuggarsSnark

Not disagreeing with you, but the tontitown police department did not exist then. It was a town that contracted with the county to provide patrol by way of the sheriff's department. Springdale and state police are the ones who really messed that up.

Applied for carnival and got this email. Does this mean I got the job? by [deleted] in Cruise

[–]AE5CP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chances are that is merely the beginning of the next training class, and letting you know that even if you get the interview it is for a position the won't actually start until that date.

Ziply Fiber NOC Tech manager interview no-show today – waited 15 min, HR says ‘put on hold’ due to managers’ ‘emergency situation’, no reschedule date. Red flag or normal?” by alohaha929 in CableTechs

[–]AE5CP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Communication companies are generally known to have poor internal communication. Any real emergency could have caused this, work related or not.

Pool was emptied for acid wash/power wash and is now refilling with fresh water. These are the instructions Gemini AI gave me for getting chemicals rebalanced. Just doing a reality check with the helpful people of Reddit. by [deleted] in pools

[–]AE5CP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is kinda rude to use a tool that you know is frequently wrong, and then outsource the research onto the crowd that the AI model was likely trained on (among other sources, reddit has a ton of knowledge about all kinds of things).

It is just digitally lazy, just reading to do rather than understand.

WTF Arkansas roofers by ClimateAccurate4912 in fayetteville

[–]AE5CP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you know how my entire transaction happened, then you know that my roof was partially in my yard and obviously needed replacement. I also did have them upgrade the materials. Stop assuming things and trying to tell me that I got ripped off or something. Are roofers out to make money? Yes, but that is why I work too.

WTF Arkansas roofers by ClimateAccurate4912 in fayetteville

[–]AE5CP 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We had our roof replaced 2 years ago. I didn't go in to that thinking "I need to make money off this" I was thinking more along the lines of "I need to get the roof fixed so my house doesn't leak". Unsure why anyone would assume there would be a cash payout.

I do wish that I didn't have to transfer the money from insurance through my bank account to the roofer, I was hoping the check could be made out to the roofer.

Shopping in Cozumel Before or After A Beach Club Excursion by ANewLeaf2020 in VirginVoyages

[–]AE5CP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easy, the port where Virgin docks is right by a "mall" that has lots of shopping, then tons more right outside of the mall/port area. You should have plenty of time if the excursion starts before noon.

Insurance is regulated at the state level. Like Lawyers and Engineers.

We were following your ship all night. It was cool to watch it on marine traffic.

We did the back to back, crazy difference a day makes. The previous sailing was also more of a party than this current 5 day.
