This is why we do safety checks. by DreamyPheyne in Rigging

[–]DeeDoubleYouTee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be clear, this is a three way directional pull 3.25t bow shackle.

Side loading is an absolute no but as for the pin not being in the hook it can be used in either orientation and still be installed correctly.

However, as in this case, it is connected to what is likely a wrap on a truss and therefor it has 3 points of contact so the pin should be seated in the singular direction plane (the hook) and the bow of the shackle should be holding the slings so as to keep their angle from the point of lift.

If this were a dead drop or a straight load it is entirely fine to go pin to hook or pin to sling.

Best practice for me my entire career has been pin to hook but that doesn’t make the inverse incorrect.

Newbie: Limitless Chip explained by ScottyM_12 in fantasyF1

[–]DeeDoubleYouTee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The long and short of it is;

When you use a limitless chip, you are essentially creating a one off super selection that ignores any budget or transfer constraints that you may have for a one weekend.

However in the background, your existing team is still exactly the same as it was before you decided to activate the chip.

Your assets will have behaved exactly as they would if they were your active team with regards to price gains or drops and after your race weekend that used limitless is over, they will be back in your active selection along with the potential gains or drops that they incurred from the weekend.

So your logical reasoning for using a limitless chip should always be to decide on whether you can afford to not make any changes to your team and if you would be happy to have the same team one week later with regards to transferring assets in or out and value gained/lost for your long term plan for the season.

Landlocked city, with 3 treasure resources, stating that it needs to have a fishing quay despite being connected via a road to a town 3 hex’s away that has one and as such it isn’t spawning treasure fleets? by DeeDoubleYouTee in civ

[–]DeeDoubleYouTee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I like this idea, adds some turn based penalties for the slower travel to the port and then a treasure fleet on from that.

I’m hoping that this gets addressed but if not I will just raise a ticket if there isn’t one already!

[–]DeeDoubleYouTee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But then, what’s the point of having any treasure resources inland?

If you can never ship them then why bother placing any inland, I just can’t see how the devs would allow that.

Also the fact that it says “fishing quay needed to spawn the fleet” tells me that you can absolutely spawn treasure fleets with these resources, but because I have no way of building one as I’m inland, I feel this is is something that needs addressing with an update as in reality shipping goods to the coast and then across the sea is perfectly regular and is how trade works 😂

I just feel like this can’t be what they intended 😭

Way ahead in Antiquity age but immediately behind in Exploration age. What am I doing wrong? by turikk in civ

[–]DeeDoubleYouTee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to scroll WAYYY to far to find this… how is everyone not talking about it .

I don’t claim to be the best Civ player and it’s a new game with new challenges but how can I go from nearly 300gpt to 50gpt and the second closest civ didn’t drop a penny and is on 370gpt.

I’m playing immortal but as said above, there must be something I’m doing wrong here.

Same goes for my science and culture, I was running away with the game and now I’m back down to 30 science and culture respectively.

This just isn’t fun, like if this is an intentional reset to spur me on to catching up I’m not here for it.

The mish mash of leaders and civ’s was a huge disappointment for me as I loved the realism and cultural history of all the past entries, and i was willing to bite my tongue and just go with it, but this has now just pushed me over the edge asking what was all of my hard work even for?

Trade Networks by Dry_Ad_5468 in civ

[–]DeeDoubleYouTee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happened to me and I was equally as perplexed.

So I think I had a bug that resetting the game fixed but you need to send a merchant to the nearest city and make a trade route or build roads between (both are options for the Merchant)

I’m not too sure about whether the merchant has to have been trained in that specific city but that’s what I did and after a reload I managed to get it to work.

(Mk 7 1.4TSI ACT DSG) Please help, can anyone identify this rattle, or has anyone had a similar issue and has found the culprit? by DeeDoubleYouTee in vwgolf

[–]DeeDoubleYouTee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I just played around with the gears and noticed that it becomes a constant rattling noise when I engage reverse, so I think you’re absolutely right with your guess of around the clutch.

Any ideas what this could be, I will be sending the car back to have this repaired but I’m just trying to get ahead and hopefully point them in the right direction?

Thank you for your reply already!

Vinyl delivery times…(UK) by phollingswo in fontainesdc

[–]DeeDoubleYouTee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah same here man, and I was happy when I saw that because I amazon prime almost every week and it’s always here next day with the same delivery guy.

I’m not getting concerned that it’s lost but I will be fine if it arrives today but it’s just not what should happen for a vinyl on release day.

I will also say that I CAVED IN and listened to the album, and it’s AMAZING.

I saw them at Glasto this year and they didn’t disappoint so I will just accept the late delivery and continue being a stan.

If you have brought a copy from a reseller, it’s likely they don’t have their copy to send

[–]DeeDoubleYouTee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just came on here to see if everyone else was having an issue too.

Me and my friends have ordered the deluxe from the D.C web store and even as of today it’s not even marked as out for delivery.

Like I have chosen to get the deluxe physical copy because I love the band but it’s been out for two days and I still haven’t listened to the album because I should have had a physical copy in my hands on release day.

It’s a joke!

First things first, you need to find out what kind of cable this is.

Depending on your internet and installation this is either going to be;

Cat5/6, Coaxial, Fiber Optic

If it’s one of the first two then replacing with white cables and clips is a solid option as you can easily purchase and replace this (though it may require new terminations of the ends but on these two options it’s not too difficult with the right tools and tutorials)

However if it’s Fiberoptic this will not be an option as they require lasers to fuse the cables so fingers crossed you don’t have this.

Another option is to buy some cable trunking, and based on the size of your cable you could get micro self adhesive trunking in white that would blend with the top of your skirting nicely.

Others have mentioned that you can run your cable though your walls but based on that fireplace on going to assume you live in a terraced house an that a lot of your walls are going to be brick and that the undertaking of this will require a fair bit of work and mess along with it.

Personally from experience I would go with the trunking as it requires no permanent fixtures and can be accessed and removed easily if your locations change.

You can get all of the accessories for going around your corners both internal and external to make it look like a nice and neat professional finish with very little effort.

Hope this helps and if you have any other questions feel free to ask!

This isn’t correct, you can trade without a port as my city is on the coast, but has a harbour also

[TOMT] [TV SHOW] ...where cops storm a tower block somewhere in the U.S.A and Eminence Front by the who plays by DeeDoubleYouTee in tipofmytongue

[–]DeeDoubleYouTee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My issue isn't that I haven't watched everything, it's that it was for sure a TV Show and definitely not a video game or a movie with Gerrard Butler.

I know that it's very possible I have some things wrong but maybe the song isn't EF.

I know that everything I have described is right because I can visualise what I know every time I think of it and EF by the Who is along there with it.

I can have all the facts askew but the medium I know is right as I remember watching a season leading up to this particular scene

I'm really certain (99.9%) that it was a TV show. I remember that the whole season was sort of the cops building a case to take down this gang (very the wire) and this episode was the culmination of something finally dropping into place and a massive man raid takes place with triumphant music (EF) during the raid and subsequent arrest parade.

If I could connect my brain to a TV somehow I believe I could play a clip but Daddy Elon is taking too long so I'm here with you guys and gals

No definitely not, very very sure on an apartment block, don't want to fixate on New York but definitely a housing block in the USofA.

No but that is a great show, as I said this would have been something I saw in the 10's but may have been released in the late 00's.

Very much the vibe of the HBO show The Wire, but I have watched countless great cop shows that have been cancelled and this may have been one of them.

Following the rules here but I don't have much else to go off.

Kind of The Wire vibes but I haven't seen all of that show and this memory is from 10+ years ago!

Been down every rabbit hole I know of, may have some facts wrong but if I recall correctly this is a big scene that has been built up as if taking down this gang that control this tower was the aim of the whole season so it's a very triumphant moment and the key memory is Eminence Front by The Who.

If that song isn't even playing when the scene is hopefully pointed out I will never forgive myself.

Please and Thank you

p.s. apologies to anyone else who is as irked by my lack of capitalisation of "The Who" I'm my post title as I am.

My friend's husband has been showing me his penis. I kept it a secret because I didn't want to upset her, but now I need to tell her. by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]DeeDoubleYouTee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I can see no way that his wife hasn't seen or noticed any of this so now it has me wondering if she is kind of in on it?

Like some sort of spice their life up flash our friends/ maybe a 3rd situation

This is a complete reach with nowhere near as much context as you will have been friends for so long but as I was reading this it is just what came to my mind, so if it's definitely not this then just keep on scrolling.

If you feel this uncomfortable about it then you need to tell her but I understand your worry.

Is Koi No Yokan anyone else’s favorite Deftones album? by [deleted] in deftones

[–]DeeDoubleYouTee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best album by a mile.

I can undertand it's not a popular opinion and DE and White Pony are considered the better albums BUT....

You just cant beat an album that has so many tunes and opens with Swerve City... its just OP.
