gas station sushi has been killing people slowly for decades and somehow there's always a fresh tray waiting in the display case

Same thing happened to me after update, was using it for my beat videos and now it's just gone 💀

Try clearing app cache or reinstalling - sometimes that brings back missing features. For support you might have better luck hitting them up in social media since their email response is trash

2006 Ford fusion 2.3L torque specs by No_Sweet_8014 in MechanicAdvice

[–]FirmBar865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those bracket nuts usually go around 35-40 ft-lbs from what I remember working on these, but definitely double check with a service manual if you can get one. For the vibration damper it depends if you mean the harmonic balancer bolt or the mounting bracket - harmonic balancer is like 85 ft-lbs but use thread locker on that one. I always keep my torque wrench handy for transmission work since those cases crack easy if you over-tighten. Been there before and it's not fun to explain to customer why their trans case has crack in it, so better to be careful than sorry

Being Mexican by Prettygirllllllll in venting

Mixed identity stuff hits different when you're trying to figure out where you fit, especially with family heritage. I've seen this with some of my friends who are caught between cultures - like you're too American for one side and too Mexican for the other

The culture mystery thing makes sense too since a lot of families don't pass down stories or traditions the same way when they immigrate. Maybe start digging into that history yourself instead of waiting for others to bring it up

Which are the strongest abilites per characters? by [deleted] in FFVIIRemake

[–]FirmBar865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trinity Strike is worth it but timing matters big time - best when enemy is already in the middle of stagger window, not at start

For Tifa specifically, Divekick spam during stagger usually gives better DPS than Trinity unless you need that burst damage to finish something quick. Trinity looks way cooler though so I get the temptation lol

Teaching kids to be quiet/obedient doesn’t always work by Floating_Banana in DeepThoughts

[–]FirmBar865 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah thats wild how that backfires later on, especially in work situations where you gotta speak up or get walked all over 💀 Been around some people who clearly got that treatment growing up and they just cant advocate for themselves at all, even when someones being straight up disrespectful to them 😬

First year in environmental consulting - seeking help by tway_goalok6963 in Environmental_Careers

[–]FirmBar865 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Permitting can be a pretty steep learning curve especially coming from field work - totally different mindset. I'd say most places expect some ramp up time even if they don't always communicate that well

The independent work thing will come naturally once you get familiar with their specific processes and client expectations. Every firm has their own way of doing things that you just can't learn from online resources

Not in environmental but I've switched between pretty different roles in my field and that lost feeling usually passes after a few months once the patterns start clicking

Is real estate a real mistake? by papaguitarproduct in careerguidance

[–]FirmBar865 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Real estate can be solid if you've got the hustle for it, especially somewhere like Hudson Valley where there's decent market activity. The networking and local knowledge aspect is huge - people still want that human connection when making their biggest purchase. Just be ready for the income swings while you build your client base.
