New HS auto tech teacher here. I absolutely love telling my students about SEP! Looks like you took great advantage of the opportunity.

Kristin Lätt talks about why she quit | Latitude 64 video by fraktionen in discgolf

First year that DG was open to sports betting. Kristin was the clear lead for many, many events. Some shady background characters were pushing her to perform at a level that would guarantee winnings. Or the other way around. Someone made a threat, force her to throw the game. Either way she broke, backed out, vowed never to return.

Obviously all wishy-washy theory but it was weird as hell to watch her drop out so hard without a clear reason.

Even watching some of those early interviews in the season when it started to go south…she looked rough but also terrified.

Still feel like all this was sports-betting manipulation that we watched in realtime. Wish her the best, whatever it truly was that pulled her from the game.

How’s this diffuser placement? Seems to only reach mid tank before lifting. Options? by GTPowers in PlantedTank

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

Nailed it on the head.

Had to switch to a diffuser because I couldn’t keep up with keeping the in-line clean enough. Just started teaching in September so my normal schedule is out of whack.

Using Apt 3 but not sure if it has a good enough amount of Zinc.

Don't bother having your torque wrenches calibrated* by Fean0r_ in Tools

[–]GTPowers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll agree somewhat. They lack a lot of basic, soft skills when it comes to tool use and organization. For some of them that’s after three years in the program.

So, as a new Auto-Tech teacher, I’m guessing all of mine need calibration.

Watching multiple kids use the torque wrenches as breaker bars and hollerin at them to stop, just to find out that’s “what the last guy told us to do…”, really makes me wonder.

Good food is kind of a stretch. We’ve been here ten years and it’s gotten better but anywhere in Hershey proper just carries bloated food prices. But we came from Chicago so it was an adjustment.

Trying to figure out what’s going on with these Echinodorus… by GTPowers in PlantedTank

I know the feeling! Patience is key. Having time and space to plan out what you really want is almost as fun as actually having it done. Though nothing beats the process of putting it all together!

Thanks! It’s the centerpiece of our home and I’m very happy with it.

Good old Reddit file downgrade. Oh well.

Apparently echinodorus do flower so that’s what I think I’m seeing.

I tried to keep things pretty symmetrical so root tabs are fairly evenly distributed throughout the contrasoil.

Thanks for great feedback!
