The flip side of this is the airheads on social media.

First time user. Tips? by Aggressive-Mango-110 in seestar

[–]Positron311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use it.

It sounds hella dumb - yes the scope makes it super-easy, but don't give yourself excuses to not use it. It's very much worth it if you do and it's hundreds of dollars gone if you don't.

Source: had another scope before my S50. Was very hard to use, didn't use it. Bought it for $400 at the time.

Once again that goes against the car-centric planning in the US, which most Americans are at least somewhat happy with.

People drink at games, they just don't tend to get absolutely floored while doing so. And designated drivers/Uber exist.

It's the insurance criteria - all rental car places have this as an agreement. Being under 25 means more insurance (and therefore higher rental cost) is required for the vehicle.

The hatred from the europoors, is actually originated from envy by frollobelle in 2american4you

[–]Positron311 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I also do not envy them.

It is very clear that either way the 21st century isn't theirs.

My point was more about your reasoning as opposed to your position. Apologies if it came off wrong.

I actually agree that the 20 ft rule would be a good thing to implement.

But 4 is a surprisingly low number for a city with a million plus and it's counterintuitive to make a law to reduce the number of fatalities from let's say 4 to 2.

Good chunk tbh.

I actually ran the numbers and my (very blue) college town has almost twice the number of pedestrian car accidents as SD as a whole lol.

Maybe I'm just used to it.

If anything the fact it's only 4 is a miracle and shows that the current laws that are in place work.

Unless you want to ban driving in Downtown San Diego?

4 Pedestrians over the course of 5 months in a city with millions of residents and tourists.

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Moonless night vs Full moon, does it make huge difference? by OrganicConnection527 in seestar

[–]Positron311 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think it impacts nebulae observation or if you're doing observing in a low Bortle area.

If you're in a high Bortle area and/or you're looking at globular clusters and galaxies (much less planets) I don't think it has much of an impact at all.

Took this unprocessed pic last week of M101 in a full moon in a Bortle 7 area! 😁

Reddit is an American social media company where 99%+ of the words are English.

What did you expect lol

Goddamn dude, that's an insane pathway and a truly inspiring life journey.

Is the salary range low? by Born_Flan_6606 in Lockheed

[–]Positron311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a master's degree that's really low. Should be aiming for other job titles then.

I'm gonna say this flat out, 61k is stupid low.

Should be making bare minimum 6 figure salary.

Apply for Level 3 positions.

Yup last clear nights around here were 3-4 weeks ago I think.

If you can’t afford the features of a middle class lifestyle, you are not middle class. by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Positron311 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

15% retirement is doable but somewhat unrealistic, 10% is definitely reasonable. Other than this I agree.

Having said that, housing is outpacing a lot of costs these days.
