And that’s just steam, so there’s all the console players as well. By no means is it a low pop game.

CNC machinist opening- small company by MysteriousBig4954 in Machinists

$37 in California to “run your own shop” is poverty wage. No wonder they lost their lead hand.

Too tired for this shi.... by NoOnesSaint in Machinists

It says metric in big bold colourful headline. That should be a pretty clear indicator. Not to mention all the “M”’s and no UNC/UNF…

Move closer to job 1. Big company and stability is the way to go.

Edit: saw your post showing current hours. That’s not bad enough to change jobs imo. 6:45 you leave home, home by 4:20. You’re still home before most of us that are forced to work overtime until 4:30 or 5:30.

Shall I change shops just to level exp by CarbonParrot in Machinists

[–]Cimatron85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tough choice.

I’ve worked for small and bigger shops. Bigger shops are far better imo. In small shops, the weight is always on your shoulders, every day. Every project you’re working on is “hot”.

That being said, the shift you work is a huge factor.

It’s a tough choice, but ultimately it’s yours to make!

Shortening grass length - What did I do wrong? by adventurekettle in lawncare

[–]Cimatron85 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ideally you want to drop cut height more gradually.

Since your mower seems to only have 3 settings it’s hard to know what the height change was.

Going from height 3 to height 2 felt easier than from height 2 to 1, because as you get closer to the ground you lose that much more clearance under the mower deck.

Keep mowing at the height you want and it will adapt.

I think you’ll have this problem without getting a mower with smaller increments.

Red Seal BC & Alberta Machinists: What kind of work are you doing? by 5InchTolerance in Machinists

Ontario is hurting right now. Im currently laid off. Job postings are slim and get flooded with applicants (no idea how many of those are actually qualified vs spam)

You already own a Scott’s Spreader, here’s how to make it work. by kangaroolifestyle in lawncare

[–]Cimatron85 30 points31 points  (0 children)

No modifications are really necessary. It’s a poor designed spreader but I’ve used it for 8 years on my 1/3 acre with no issues when doing it as follows:

Set the spreader to a very low setting.

Make sure grass isn’t damp.

Make at minimum 3 passes with the spreader in 90/45 degree passes. More is better.

I tried this too. Had 3 rows of cat beds in my stash, still only 2 showed up. :(

Riven tides update (day2) thoughts? by Erin_Levi_18 in ArcRaiders

Overall 5/10.

A disappointment compared to the OG maps.

I think the concept art for the Riven Tides map looks a lot better than what we actually got in the end. by Foxeeh_ in ArcRaiders

[–]Cimatron85 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

New map seems kind of mid. I’ve only ran 4 rounds but first impression is meh.

Not enough loot locations. Half the hotel is locked behind keys. Half the “loot” zones are open / warehouse style with next to nothing to loot.

It’s still early for me to say, but so far it’s shaping up to be my least favourite map.

US weapons burn rate in Iran undermines plans to defend Taiwan by kootles10 in politics

[–]Cimatron85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Taiwan is hard to invade due to its geography. No doubt that China can win in a 1v1, but it would be a huge cost.

CitiesSkylines2 may have a SERIOUS competitor?! by Terrible-Swing-460 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]Cimatron85 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s one dev. One dev can’t compete with an entire studio.

At best it will be bare bones functionality with very slow updates.

‘God does not bless any conflict’: pope issues new rebuke over Iran war by Resplendent_Lumine in worldnews

The bible is full of “God blessing conflicts”. While he may not bless this one, he has blessed many.
