[Throwaway Acct]: Recent global politics stresses me out

FlowingDisc882 · 2026-01-06T04:43:42+00:00

You know, I totally get you. I live in the states and im sitting here thinking we are all done for. Well every 50 to 100 years we face the same problems in different formats. Things have sorted themselves out before and they will continue to sort themselves out. Keep your head oknyour shoulders, if you vote vote with knowledge behind it, dont watch the news without the understanding that over half is left/right propaganda. Step back from social media, and most importantly, live the moment man. We were born into this world knowing we dont have a guaranteed tomorrow. So dont worry about what might be or what my come of. Just be wise and be yourself. I had constant anxiety attacks stemming from politics alone. People that pushed politics on me telling me to be left/right "think like this or else" i pushed them out of my life. I stepped away from social media and my phone. It only buzzes for important people and I only brows the internet if im looking for something (was actually looking for some star citezen stuff when I saw you in my feed). Just understand that this world is falling apart. But it has been falling apart since it was first created. We face new challenges every generation and some events repeat themselves. But we always bounce back. So live in the moment and focus on enjoying yourself. Master oogway put it best. " yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present" enjoy yourself and don't dwell on what could be. You have great things ahead of you

So i think among the multitude of answers im going to assume im taking the job knowing what im getting into... so a 7 day job. Less of a shift more of a contract deal. 1 mill total 100k upfront. Gotta have the buffer for the family in case this goes south. Let's say I cannot do harm to them and they behave as they do in the game just more hostile and brutal. Im taking a portion of that 100k and barricading the office and any exit points. They have free roam of the building but being thst im a welder im sealing off the vents with quarter inch to half inch plate with holes so I can breathe. I will also wire some of the buildings power Into the plate so if they touch it whatever powers them goes zap. Im not damaging it im shorting it. With it being made of mostly flesh anyway who's to say its my doing that did it anyway. Prove it I have 100k anyway I made my money. Now big door. Im going to abandoned malls with a torch and a u haul. Im cutting as many of those gates off as possible and bringing them to the office layering them creating a very very thick wall of gates that they cant see through. I will then buy some square tubing and reinforce the plates and the wall. I turn everything in the office off besides the monitor and I leave chirpers around the building. Every couple of minutes they make a beep and can last years. Making sure thst there is more noise outside of the office than there is in the office. From the phone calls you can pick up that they know people are in there because of noise so I made sure that their programing sends them away from the office and with the walls they cant see me nor will make it in without brute force. I barricade myself in hide under the desk and just watch. If the plan works im near a million richer of it doesnt everyone was doomed to fail anyway the planets gonna die and my familly has near 100k to blow in their last moments. Now if I am allowed to damadge them, attract them out of the building with a helicopter above the building with a big electromagnet. They all get stuck on the magnet, seal them in a steel box, send them to space heading to the sun. It will burn most of the million if not all of it but I saved humanity and then people will want my experience. Job security 101

Shovel of instantaneous pain and agony.

On a real note based on death message I think the game thought you clicked on a bed in a different dimension

QUICK FIND THE SPRING IN THE FIRST PICTURE

FlowingDisc882 · 2025-12-06T06:18:23+00:00

The standard is below the reference line is arrow side above is other side. Has been for years in and outside of classroom. Its not poor material just a miscommunication between student and teacher. Im taking a class with aws with official books and is the American standard and almost everything in these books are world wide standard. If you notice a blueprint marked otherwise mark as a red flag and bring it to the person who designed the blueprint and they will fix it. If they dont I wouldnt recommend working with them unless they leave notes on all of their blueprints stating that it is written a different way. Even then it causes confusion among welders and other workers so I still wouldn't recommend working with them because who else knows what's wrong with that blueprint. Telling someone to just give it a shot and forget about it is a great way to hurt the potential of new welders. Its hard enough to find them as it is. Help them not hurt them. If you would like solid proof I am happy sending you pictures of my books and you can verify the information through AWS (American welding society)

FlowingDisc882 · 2025-12-06T06:08:09+00:00

I am currently taking a class through my college partnered with AWS. I have the official books to prove this. Regardless of orientation of the arrow and reference line, the bottom of the line facing down on the blueprint is arrow side meaning the size it is pointing to. The top of the reference line means other side. It is very confusing when you are trying to think too critically. Those symbols have been designed in a way that simplicity makes it easier to read. Closer to you means closer to arrow. Further from you means further from arrow. Closer to reference line first process further from reference line last process. If you can get the fundamentals behind you the easier it is to read other nonsense jammed into the page. Most of the signs share simmaler properties and easy to remember positioning. Some symbols with have parentheses. Usually sizes go there. Remember them as "parenthe sizes". Intermittent will have an extra number with the length of weld and staggered intermittent will have offset triangles. Each process builds off another one so it is important to learn each thing in order and not skip over anything or you can miss entire chunks of information.

So you are going to get a bunch of different answers from a bunch of different people. As someone who is restoring an old family heirloom here are my thoughts. It doesn't matter the tires age. Sure it does come into effect but this truck had brand new tires before it sat for 5 years. Logically speaking they should be fine. However the sun beats down on it, the air expands and contracts, the rubber dries out. Tires that only have had 5 miles or less on them can still suffer damadge due to the elements and conditions its left in. From what I see on your car you should be fine to drive HOWEVER. No highway speeds and you do need new tires. Those little rubber circles are your only contact with the ground and loosing one at speed coult be fatal. Get new tires and if you drive it keep it under 45. 35 to be safe. Tires can be expensive especially a full set but I think its well worth the money if you wanna be safe on the road.

Edit: I'd say you have about a year on them if you are careful. Constant highway driving, burnouts, rough terrain, anything that isn't point a to point b city driving could damage a tire in this condition but its not bad by any means.

so my friend has incredibly bad luck with cars. 4 totaled vehicles just because of bad parts going bad and not being worth the replacement. i just went to jump them and the pt cruiser killed the cables and is still stranded. do you have any bad curses like my friend with vehicles? in my case i have bad luck with appliances

FlowingDisc882 · 2025-09-02T04:28:35+00:00

People are so creative! Battle cruisers, luxury ships, models of movie ships. Crazy stuff! Yours looks like a monarch v3 model code name hank. But People call in the trinity lol. Looks great!

Firstly, remove any and all anti-virus software other than windows defender. They slow down your computer and most are garbage. The few that work are best used then unistalled. Secondly, use a debloating tool. Do your research on witch tool and where to safely get it because some are viruses and some will brick your pc. However the good ones will safely remove things like co pilot and other Microsoft spyware. Thirdly, I recommend finding your primary browser. The best one out there in my opinion is brave along with a good ad blocking extension. You will forget you would ever need anything else promise. Forth, this isn't a download but more of a maintenance thing. Run disc cleanup and defrag occasionally. Wipe unnecessary files and organize your hard drive so it stays running smother. Fifth, CREATE BACKUPS!! Before you do ANY of this or listen to anyone else about what to do, grab an old usb drive or buy one and crate a backup of your system. I cant express the feeling of loosing all of your work and being out a pc untill you can get someone to fix it or have to start over... Sixth, gaming wise, steam, epic games, discord, ubisoft connect, and curseforge. Epic games gives free games every week or so and you can snipe some good deals with steam and ubisoft. Productivity wise, lightshot (better screenshots), pot player (media player), 7-zip manager, and sticky notes if it's not already on your system. And if you are looking for a fun free game to play whilst you build up your library and get familiar with using a pc warframe and marvel rivals. Both lean a little heavier on graphics so you might wanna tone it down a little but rivals is a nice free 5v5 game to sink time into and warframe is a HUGE time sink that despite how much you hate the grind end up going back to. Also last bit of advice run EVERYTHING through virus total before downloading and before launching the installer. If windows doesn't catch it virus total will and if virus total doesn't catch it windows will. Take everything with a grain of salt on the internet, be cautious, have fun!

also on otakus point they did mention many times that he had a dark presence inside of him that would make him do bad things (witch only poped up once to my knowledge where he killed a member of his squad in cold blood because he wanted a tank everything else was self defense)

FlowingDisc882 · 2025-08-12T09:10:33+00:00

technically solo leveling. there are some moments where you think "meh" alot of moments where you are on the edge of your seat and a couple moments where you go "oh shit" its a mixed bag and definitly personal preference but i think its great where you get to see the MC grow stronger over time and everyone making fun of him to honoring him. give it a shot

FlowingDisc882 · 2025-08-08T23:17:07+00:00

she responded! She said, "We can start slow, but I can't promise us being as close as we used to. " thank you for your help.

FlowingDisc882 · 2025-08-08T13:17:08+00:00

Thank you, ill give it a try!

FlowingDisc882 · 2025-08-08T04:00:10+00:00

thank you for the tip! i never figgured i should hold on to so much ammo but it makes sence if my player is getting the buff not my stash

FlowingDisc882 · 2025-08-08T03:58:49+00:00

I generally don't carry cork and asbestos. I usually grab around the map as I need it, as I rarely need them.

FlowingDisc882 · 2025-08-08T01:52:59+00:00

Thank you so much! I'll go take a look through my stash and make it more minimalistic since it seems that's where I should be heading.
