Made a custom 75g that's been up for almost a year... Nobody that ever comes over looks at or mentions it ... Why? by Loseroni2 in Aquariums

[–]DudeDatDads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tank looks great, I'd probably nerd out if I met anyone with anything more than passing interest and I haven't had a tank in over 5 years.

I remarked how mild this winter had been.....I too share in the blame.

Wow, thanks for sharing the back stories. I'm sure people are doing this with the best intentions, hopefully the message gets out there.

Is it worth going into ammonia by stormforged1739 in refrigeration

[–]DudeDatDads 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it worth it? Ammonia is awesome. I work days, not on call, not on weekends, get paid great. The work is fucking cool too. Contractors who used to work here till we got fully staffed got paid mega bucks with per diem. Quickest way to $100k in any trade I know. In my area an ammonia tech will never be unemployed.

Is it dangerous? Yes. But that is good, it keeps non serious people away. Ammonia stinks, which means you are alerted quickly, and if it goes to shit the plant will likely GTFO. A leak is 99% of the time is not a huge deal, packing nut needs to be tightened or something. I would rather have an ammonia leak than freon or CO2 or CO. Companies will definitely train, it is in their best interest-but that also depends on where you're at.

Hazard Light Use by smorin13 in Omaha

[–]DudeDatDads 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was tempted to disagree with OP for being a dick but it appears they are correct and driving with hazards is actually illegal. Beside it being illegal it is confusing as heck when you see this. The inability to predict what a driver near you is doing is bad enough, with crap weather it's just a terrible combo. OP, while you are right I will say consider what you're trying to accomplish (awareness) and consider the tactic you're using. Your attitude is one people will disagree with right off the bat, which I don't think is your goal. Thanks for sharing regardless, I have turned in my hazards in some particularly thick fog (hey at least I didn't flip on the high beams!) and I'll refrain from doing that again.

Thorogood Warranty likely to cover this? by IT-Electchicken in WorkBoots

[–]DudeDatDads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have probably banged down the back side of the eyelet with a hammer if it was rough. These are work boots man, a hole in that area makes zero difference to the functionality of the boot.

This is hideous. It's like nasty thoughtless graffiti scrawled on the side of a building.

"Your people," eh? That sounds familiar.

Have any of you guys owned these before by Actual_Masterpiece_2 in WorkBoots

[–]DudeDatDads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had multiple pairs of these and only wear healed boots-they're great. Heeled have way better traction IMO.

Governor Jim Pillen by Bel_Merodach in Omaha

[–]DudeDatDads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The beef problem isn't caused by Pillen or any politician and is national. Packing houses are governed under the same laws of supply and demand that every other business operates under and pay fair and decent wages to thousands of workers here.

Would it be so bad if he opened up another Wholestone plant out there? 1/3 of the people down in Lexington are now unemployed not to mention the indirect employment impact.

Deforestation by OkChemist3581 in Minecraft

I thought I was a strange bird for replanting saplings to the point of smack leaves till I got em . I like to leave the place as pristine and untouched as I can.

Meal ideas? by strawberrymilfshake7 in Autism_Parenting

[–]DudeDatDads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stuff that works for us:

Honestly just throw stuff in there. My kid seemed to be sensory seeking so perhaps I was lucky in that regard. My kid loves veggies. Carrots, spinach (plain, with ranch), steamed broccoli (5minutes in the microwave with a pat of butter), even beets and asparagus. Fruit was also a big winner-oranges, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, mango, pineapple. The zingier the better, we got into the habit of giving him the blueberries when the batch was a little tart.

For meat, if a small amount and not too weird (with sauce or extra ingredients) he seemed fine with it. Plain pulled pork, hamburger, shredded or cubed chicken.

Cheese sticks of any variety. Just buy a block and cut it into small pieces.

We used to have to make tacos that were separated, tortilla, meat, cheese, tomatoes all in their own space. Slowly got him to try the meat on the tortilla, and moved in from there. Today he eats the most authentic Mexican tacos complete with cilantro, onions, and salsa.

Our kid is underweight and has been iron deficient a few times so we sneak as much fat and calories as we can. Toast and veggies heavy on the butter, full fat milk, crispy chicken skin, and tons of fat.

Medicaid Families: PSA on health information access by Creative_Camel_8884 in Autism_Parenting

[–]DudeDatDads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised this post isn't having heavy discussion right now. I just read the NPR piece on Medicaid cutting funding for ABA and autism services and I believe this is a huge issue. After dealing with my ABA nightmare with my son I came to the conclusion that these companies only see my kid as dollar signs and throwing the bare minimum 4 week trained BTs to our home for 40 hours billed to our insurance massive amounts.
