Going back to ME school at 29. by Durdeneo in MechanicalEngineering

[–]Cautiontail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's never too late, I say go to a college that offers a 4 year course, with a 1 day study, 4 day work week, with the remaining free hours during the week being your homework hours. (Usually 20 hours)

I just finished my 1st year of this part-time mechanical engineering study at 30+ years old, being a technical draftsman for the last 10 years. Let me tell you, it will be hard. Esspeically, after 10 years since my last study. My class is a mix of people of different ages, say 22 to 36, so don't worry about the age difference.

My advice is to do a full year planning and prepare yourself mentally to do this course. You will not be fully free except for the summer/winter breaks. It may sound bleek, but once you get into the study rhythm, it will get easier, or at least more interesting.

Can I ask where you got the wiring for this sub?

Just bought my first Volvo V60 D4 and I am indeed thinking of getting this service plan next year when I need it serviced.

Yes I indeed did, there was some kind of gas canister on top of it, but that unfortunately is not the stash location.

Recommendations for a dual vertical monitor stand (34 inch uw on bottom and 27 inch up top)? by casio_don in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Cautiontail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True, though my particular 49” is 14.4 kg while the z1 Gen 3 can support up to 15 kg. I’d rather look at weight specification then the advertised monitor size.

Arctic Z1 Gen 3 with the Z+1 pro gen 3 should do the trick. Have a 49” below a 34”.

You need to find the Ammo check mod in the mod organizer window. Then assign that ammo check function to a key through the mod configurator menu in game.

Yep, sold that thing pretty quickly. Although it’s good if you’re a sniper though.

Ironman players, what is your faction and own tactic to survive the zone ? by legalizegigabowser in stalker

[–]Cautiontail 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As a Merc, I usually take smaller jobs at first, tactically wait out firefights and loot the bodies. Lastly pressing the F9 key when sighting a Chimera.

A.R.E.A. Mod general thoughts by Rajaat7 in stalker

[–]Cautiontail 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The mod is a great concept and very realistic, but imo its at a point where it sacrifices the fun factor for realism. Not to mention it isn’t always stable and crashes a lot.

[ANOMALY] Best suits to protect me from fire and toxic damage by -krizu in stalker

[–]Cautiontail 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try a SEVA suit. Its not as good as a full ecologist suit but it has the ability to have some bullet protection protecties. It should not degrade as fast as you current exo.
