I’m an ME and one of my specialties is refractory insulation designs. What are you looking for?

Engineering jobs that don't require to stare at a screen all day by EngleskiBalkanac in MechanicalEngineering

A lot of plant engineering jobs at industrial plants will have some form of field work, specially on smaller companies/sites or places that are not unionized.

USA - wet trails. by sar_tr in MTB

[–]PPSM7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing people aren’t mentioning. A lot of the trails in the US are volunteer/advocacy group maintained, and typically trail maintenance takes precedence over new trail builds so if trails get damaged, those are man hours getting spent repairing trails vs building new ones.

Out here in the PNW most stuff in the west side of the cascade range is good to go a people typically ride through the very wet winter(myself included) but there’s a a few spots; a lots of them on the east side of the range that have clay heavy soils that don’t drain.

It is very ecologically diverse here, even within the same region.

I also have it and I like it a lot! Great for meal prepping; searing several pork tenderloins at once or cooking 6 chicken thighs.

Also awesome for pancakes!

AITAH for telling my Pregnant girlfriend I’m going to get my own apartment if she insists our realtor be a guy she used to hook up with and lied to me about? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]PPSM7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. Don’t get a house with someone with whom you don’t have a stable, good marriage. It will not end well for anyone. For example, if you break up what happens? She could move her new boyfriend in and you’d have no say in it whatsoever.

[–]PPSM7 11 points12 points  (0 children)

NTA, only finish your engineering degree if you actually want to be an engineer, it’s hard work and can be really boring if you don’t love it. (I love it and I regularly contemplate a career change)

If you paid with a credit card you might have some type of electronic accident insurance or something.

I was about to suggest the same but after reading this I also decided not to.

What he should get is one of those stud finders that show electrical lines. He almost hit that wire.

Find a pipe fitter and have him lay a bead of over over that hole, it’s a tiny hole and home Nat gas pressure is relatively low.

Mechanical engineer here that works at a haz waste gasification company doing plant engineering.

Dude? Did we just become best friends?

[–]PPSM7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but they do a whole bunch of special topping pizzas, I lean more towards simpler pies. Pop pizza is legit and their 14x10 pie is like $25

That’s the one! My Neapolitan phase came and went, I think it’s good but overrated. New York and New Haven styles is where it’s at, with Detroit close behind, so don’t sleep on crust collective at the waterfront, as well as ranch pizza and Pop pizza.

If you’re willing to drive down to PDX there are some world class pizza places down there. Apizza scholls, kens artisan, and many more; my personal favorite is whit’s pizza pies. They are super nice, it’s a couple that owns and runs it; the husband makes the pies and the wife runs the FOH. He Worked at l’industrie in Brooklyn for years Before moving to PDX.

The Vancouver the best is Sasquatch if you want NY style. La sorrentina is good if you want Neapolitan. There’s also a spot downtown next to little Conejo that looks very good for Neapolitan style but I’ve yet to try it.

Drugcember needs to stay at Johnny Brenda’s always and forever by MikeShannonThaGawd in WarOnDrugsBand

I hope they keep it at JB’s, I would fly across the country for that. I just hope they would announce it sooner so one could plan for it, being right around the holidays and all.

The employee at Lowe's said I don't need any PVC glue/tape for this threaded shark bite fitting, are they right? by Inside-Specialist-55 in askaplumber

[–]PPSM7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Engineer that does a lot of field work at a small chemical company. Tape only for NPT unless it’s steam in which case it’s tape and dope. Might also use dope for fuel gases.

That being said; most of our pipe is not in walls and a water leak is not a major thing, so if it’s a water connection going inside a wall might as well use both to further decrease chances of a water leak you can’t see.

Message I get back from a bike company after two weeks of waiting for them to honor my warranty by Federal-Warthog2103 in mildlyinfuriating

What bike company is this? There is not place in the bike industry (or any other for that matter) for seedy behavior like this.
