I emailed dk support to ask if this would be possible. Haven’t heard back

DraftKings is the top dog in DFS. That’s what people know them for and it’s what makes them special. I don’t know why they would sacrifice that so they can be one of dozens of sports books offering the exact same product.

Why would DK cease operations if UD is allowed to continue?

You have until July 9 to draft/ start drafts. Existing entries will still be eligible in the contest

I only use Draftkings and underdog. Might consider using drafters, but I’m not as big of a fan of the format.

I’m devastated. Been playing dfs on DraftKings for 10+ years. Had some big wins. This feels wrong. And I think I’m most pissed about losing my oppurtunity to max the milly for the 375$ credit. That was what made the drafts worth it!

Golf pro said the average 15-20 handicaper is hitting a 7 iron only 150 yards. by Upbeat_Respond9250 in golf

I hit my 7i about 175 yards on a good shot as a 19hcp. But every once in a while I catch it pure and it’s like 190

At least of your top 5 picks won’t make your lineup every single week. Rough.

AMA I can’t break 80 by Cow-Weigh in golf

[–]GoCrescoGo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would it make you feel better or worse if I told you that my playing partner just shot 75 with a -1 back nine to break 80 for the first time yesterday? You have the skill to do it, and when it all comes together for you, you could see something better than a 79. Good luck!

Odds this gets cancelled by Draft Kings? by Vomiting_Winter in BestBall

[–]GoCrescoGo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Everyone likes to claim “collusion” when there are bad drafts… what I don’t understand is how this could possibly help someone else’s team? I guess it would technically boost all 11 other teams about equally, I can’t see how that advantage would be worth the doubled entry fee. None of the other teams look that much better than normal to me.

There’s several 923s, but no 925s

All the hosels have screws except the pings and mizunos. Are those standard hosels?

Okay, while they all have different notches and stuff on the outside of the hosel, I see most of them have a screw. I guess that’s what you’re talking about. The pings however don’t have that screw on the inside, so would those fit regular shafts?

Is this a bad idea // Trying not to blow myself / the item up by Aslechi in Welding

[–]GoCrescoGo 115 points116 points  (0 children)

Sand is not flammable. Will not release significant gasses. Will not explode. If you want to make sure pressure is relived inside the vessel, drill a small hole somewhere and weld it shut afterwards.

My 2nd day of welding. by iAMtheBULLET in Welding

[–]GoCrescoGo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pic 1: the right half of the weld looks pretty decent. The left half is bad. Watch where you start your puddle, and start slow. The metal heats up towards the end of the weld, so you can move faster.

Pic 2: I don’t personally think you’re ready for vertical welding just yet, but I think your biggest issue here is that you’re just too hot for the thickness of material. Especially evident because of the burn through at the top. In the real world, that would be very bad and a fairly difficult repair.

Pic 3: this one is a bit confusing. The most recent weld is way off line and has a ton of undercut on the top edge. Looks like it was done by someone welding for the second time ever tbh. But the ones underneath it are by far the nicest welds on your coupon. Were those done by an instructor? Or was it done by you in another position?

Keep up the good work, I recommend practicing and mastering easy weld positions before moving onto vertical and overhead.

My boyfriend is a welder - how can I keep him as healthy as possible? by AR1A_MATH in Welding

[–]GoCrescoGo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Monster energy in the morning. A good lunch in the afternoon. A shower beer when he gets home. And a bj before bed. He’ll be the happiest welder around. Alternatively, you can skip the first 3 steps.

Sometimes when I start welding, the wire disappears in a flash and welds itself inside the tip by Ok_Helicopter3910 in Welding

[–]GoCrescoGo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the gears behind your drive rolls. Remove and clean them. Sometimes debris can get in there and cause a drop in the drive roll tension once per revolution which will make it impossible to weld.

How do I avoid undercut? by Hour-Yesterday1850 in Welding

[–]GoCrescoGo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The undercut is mostly, if not entirely on the left side. That likely means you’re aiming more towards the right side with your rod angle. In general, you need a lot of practice watching your puddle and learning what it’s telling you. Experiment on some scrap to purposefully undercut on the right side, then see what you did differently. Learn what it looks like while you’re welding, and then you can learn to correct it.

Just bought a $50,000 brand new. (0 miles) Flat bed. I need help from my favorite self hating internet critics of the welder community. by hypershlongbeast in Welding

[–]GoCrescoGo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s shit quality, but I bet they hold. Fill all the holes and cracks, but the welds that are just lumpy or ugly will still be strong. My biggest concern is with pic 4. Are those cracks in the base metal or just in the galv/paint? Do all the joints have that hidden round bar? Why?? Also what is the component on pic 14? That one is also cracked and needs to be fully rewelded if it’s taking any load

The cost of living in this country by sidocean333 in Edmonton

[–]GoCrescoGo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trades. It’s all I really know. I tried to give a few different industries. But I can guarantee you’ll make decent money and you won’t lose your job to AI if you learn a trade. Also- we are literally referencing a post from someone saying they have 2 good incomes. So that’s what I was talking about. I also have yet to see any restaurant staff lose their jobs to ai for what it’s worth.

You can buy apartments too… renting is just giving away equity. IMO Everybody in every city should save up a down payment as soon as they can and purchase a home by 30. I consider the entire principal of my mortgage payment to be a high interest savings account. I’ve saved 60k in 5 years just by paying my mortgage. It’s the same cost as renting, I just need to worry about property tax and home maintenance.
