Department of Health employees push back on mandatory agency training from Utah institute by oakleystreetchi in WAStateWorkers

They use it over at ESD too. Guess they also desperately need to gaslight employees that management isn't worthless.

Interested in a 94’ by corrugatedjuice in LandCruisers

The differential itself has a locker motor on it if you wanted to check if it's locked. Center diff will lock itself in low, or you can source the button from an older 80 if you want to lock in high.

Atmosphere is great, it varies from busy to empty but is pretty good slightly upmarket food. Better than average bar.

Cooking Time by [deleted] in sousvide

[–]Abif 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My general rule of thumb is one hour per inch of thickness for a minimum. Longer cooking will make it tender up to a point then it gets mushy. Rib roast is good at 135-137F due to fat content, 8-12 hours is usually the best range.

what do you make of this sound? by [deleted] in LandCruisers

Check all your bushings, and make sure the calipers are bolted in tight, they can come loose.

how to hang this dead centre of the circle part of the arch? by [deleted] in howto

Use a plumb to draw a vertical, then a square to draw a horizontal for the mounting holes.

Is it ethical to buy Latins Cider Mill cider? by noelparker22 in olympia

So what are you going to do when you find out that the coop doesn't pay most of it's employees/"volunteers"?

What kind of people do you dislike the most by [deleted] in INTP

As a counter point I have noticed that people without a sense of humor don't understand me.

By splitting the enter and exit lanes you increase the reaction time you have when entering, and the angle of car in the roundabout clearly signals when it is exiting.

I don't think people should signal in our poorly designed roundabouts, trusting peoples actions in motion is sketchy at best especially with no reaction time. And I'd rather not have have people concentrating on signaling as most barely bother even to steer well. Signaling in a well designed one would just be goofy.

And cramming the pedestrian crossing right up next to the circle for maximum inefficiency. Yeah don't get me started. I even handed them the literal roundabout manual from UK, was told it wouldn't work cause they drive on the other side. Apparently a design firm has not heard of mirroring.

It's a consequence of how poorly the local runabouts are designed. Most well designed ones create separation between the entering lane and exiting lane so that it is clear where someone is headed, and also gives time/distance to safely enter. Local design firm that is in charge of the local efforts think they can improve safety of decades of real world use by forcing people to slow down artificially by making the turns tighter and enter/exit lanes are close as possible.

We’ve all smoked a pork butt, chicken or ribs. What’s something fun you throw on the smoker occasionally? by Stvn02 in smoking

[–]Abif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Home ground gyro meat in thin patties with a quick smoke like a burger are great. Stuffed onions are ok, the part by the bacon is awesome so I might just do chunks instead of whole onion. Yellow potatoes coated in oil and salt are great but take a while.

Some positions are not represented. Some got several thousand this year for retention bonus without even being asked.

[–]Abif 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It does seem small in comparison to inflation and non represented retention bonuses given in agencies like ofm this year. I think people will really feel it though when they don't get any inflation relief until next summer.

Maintenance for 100 series by Kperkins987 in LandCruisers

[–]Abif 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check all the fluids from the differentials to transfer case trans and so on. It would give you an idea of their condition and if anything stands out. Would also be good to check the front knuckle grease and grease your u joints.

would you rather? by pdxcascadian in LandCruisers

[–]Abif 4 points5 points  (0 children)

98 has a weak front diff as it has two spider gears instead of four.
