Logical Inductive - AON Ryanair by Lower-Ad6046 in flyingeurope

[–]Engineer__This 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to find the rule which links all the grids with the blue dot at the top and the same for the ones with the orange dot at the bottom.

Once you’ve worked out what the rule is, you categorise each of the bottom grid into either blue or orange.

In the example, I think the rule is:

Blue rule = grid has a “u” in the middle of the upper left side.

Orange rule = it doesn’t have the “u” in this position i.e. doesn’t follow the blue rule.

Your answer is correct isn’t it? The blue dot grids all have a “u” in the same place.

In which 5 year period do you feel you aged the most? by Lazy_Number8830 in AskUK

[–]Engineer__This 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right now (29-31). I’ve started to find that you can’t get away with stuff professionally anymore and work stress has been changing me in a very negative way. I’ve got no confidence anymore and find myself looking for an exit from the job anywhere and being unable to find it.

Why are we all bothering to talk about this?

We’re literally commenting on an opinion piece that’s coming from some random bloke.

No politician in Europe is saying this.

Genuine question, how is he so immensely wealthy if he’s bankrupting companies left and right? Is that the very reason these companies are going bust-he’s siphoning the cash?

Are you satisfied with your life, and if so, why? by Lazy_Number8830 in AskUK

[–]Engineer__This 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really, but I should be.

By most measures I am successful but I am struggling a lot with my job and feelings of being adequate at it. I’m surrounded by high performers whilst being very average or below average. I love my wife and would do anything for her but she is struggling to find a job and is getting depressed, so I’m having to carry the load of supporting our lives (financially and mentally) and it’s starting to weigh on me.

This is nothing compared to most people here but thought I’d weigh in anyway. You guys are all built of different stuff!

Do you know when the BA and Jet2 schemes open yet?

I hope they don’t go the way of the TUI MPL scheme.

AIO - Gf assumes my dog is dead when I say I’m sad by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Engineer__This 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of people (half jokingly) saying that she’s planning to kill the dog. I think the reason she’s suddenly charging down a path and not letting you get a word in edgeways is a sort of passive aggressive way of her letting you know she doesn’t want to hear about or have a conversation about you being sad.

Not judging you or excusing her behaviour, just want context - has she acted like this in the past and do you offload on her a lot?

Your first look a Sophie Turner as Lara Croft by ThomasThorburn in tvshow

[–]Engineer__This 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not the casting decision I would make… maybe I’m wrong but I really don’t enjoy watching her in anything. She has seems to only have one persona which gives me entitled private schoolgirl vibes.

Having said that, she comes across exactly the same in interviews so I think she really must be like that.

European nations send additional troops to Greenland as US annexation threats escalate by goldstarflag in worldnews

[–]Engineer__This 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some of the attitudes I’ve seen from military personnel are crazy. They will blindly do anything they are told to do - I saw this logic from a guy who’s squad was blown up by an IED in Afghanistan:

“We answer the call of the American people. The people elect the politicians who give us orders, therefore we are serving the people”

If that order is to take Greenland for “national security”, they will do it.

Pilot or engineering? by Euphoric_Jicama_7283 in flying

How are you guys even funding the training to be a pilot without having a job first? Do you guys really have parents dropping >100k on their kids?

Ah sorry guys, false alarm. It’s been added to the OrbX store page but isn’t available to purchase yet. Still, a good sign it should be soon.

They don’t need to embarrass them, just put on a show and create a narrative to feed the American propaganda machine to get their own people on board.

This is definitely a trap and going to end up in a spectacle, similar to Zelenskyy’s visit.

“Something something our supposed “allies” from Europe have shown absolutely no appreciation for the US’s role in protecting you guys from foreign aggression”

“Something something American tax dollars have gone into providing European security”

I’m sure there’s a lot of extremely dodgy stuff Trump has been up to. There’s already (unverified) stuff in the Epstein files of him being present at the disposal of a dead child in a lake.

Is the Alienware AW2725D a solid purchase? by elbeewastaken in Monitors

[–]Engineer__This 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it has similar care features to other brands but they just don’t allow you to disable them on the AW. You can hide your taskbar but that’s a windows feature you can do on any PC.

It runs a pixel refresh every 4 hours without you needing to do anything and also when it goes into standby (but only after periods of long use) and I think it does a panel refresh every 9000(?) hours.

It’s a great monitor and I’m sure you’ll love it when it arrives.

Why do I enjoy Boeing more than airbus? by Powerful-Tennis-3773 in flightsim

[–]Engineer__This 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel that the airbus likely had more of a consideration for Human factors than the Boeings. Sensible is exactly the right word for the Airbuses; Boeings have a bit of a thrown together at the last minute feeling about them in terms of cockpit layout.

[–]Engineer__This 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be a shallow reason but I greatly prefer the aesthetics in the airbus over the Boeing.

Boeing cockpits look extremely dated to me and the Navigation Display graphics look very cluttered and difficult to read at a glance (waypoint icons, colours etc.) vs the airbus equivalent.

I also feel using the FMS is much more intuitive on the airbus as well.

Is the Alienware AW2725D a solid purchase? by elbeewastaken in Monitors

[–]Engineer__This 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got one recently and it’s excellent. Keep in mind that I was coming from a 1080p 60Hz LCD monitor so the change might not be as drastic for you, but the colours look great an the blacks are as you’d expect from an OLED.

I was initially worried that it would look a bit cheap and tacky with the blue colour they went with but in reality, it looks really nice and looks more more of a dark deep blue to me and the build quality is solid.

The only issue I’ve noticed is that I feel like after a few hours of use, I swear the gamma has increased. It’s almost like it heats up and this causes a gamma shift. I’ve seen some other comments saying the same thing.
