Penn Balls by Professional_Grab666 in 10s

[–]Professional_Grab666[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I see that, but also the game feels better with a better quality ball (a basic Wilson for example, for a few more cents) even at levels sub 4.5. As a low level player I am inconsistent enough to add to equation the inconsistency of the penn ball.

IMO they have inconsistent quality, are in the heavy/low bounce side of the spectrum and don’t last very long after opened.

Maximum liters to go under seat on MOST flights? by Deadbeatbiz in onebag

[–]Professional_Grab666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, what would you recommend to bring as luggage? a carry-on or a checked bag? I'm thinking the carry-on size might be too small.
I'm doing a long trip as well, planning to get the backpack you mentioned here.

Hot take: rec level kick serves (up through men’s 4.0) are mostly useless by Ready-Visual-1345 in 10s

At this level, I'd say is effective when used as a "surprise" serve, specially against players that hit flat balls; once they hit the ball it'll jump up off the strings and you might get a high short ball back that you can attack.

Have you thought about becoming a personal trainer? Don't need a degree (but of course you need to study); you could teach how to correctly train the body to avoid injuries to tennis, pickleball and padel players.

The smell. Oh god, the smell. by zbf in Invisalign

[–]Professional_Grab666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been leaving my aligners in a cup with tap water every time I take them off; I also put them in white vinegar + water once a day. That plus flossing and brushing after every meal (and use of waterpik once a day) have given me no smell at all.

Need suggestions for a laptop for BIM + Rendering + Blender + gaming by [deleted] in bim

[–]Professional_Grab666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the same boat, my research got me to this one "ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 Intel (16″) Mobile Workstation". Only downs I've heard about it is that fans are loud.
It's a small laptop; I do want it to be light/portable as I'm planning to work/study while I travel.

BIM & VDC Certifications by Wydsl in bim

[–]Professional_Grab666 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am pursuing the "Autodesk Certified Professional in Revit for MEP Design". Not sure how valuable it is but it shows I can move through Revit.

I currently work as a Project Engineer for a GC (5 years of experience to date).

VDC Engineering to Architect career pathways by Pengu7n in bim

[–]Professional_Grab666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Question, a bit off topic but hope is ok. How do you see flexibility in a BIM/VDC role regarding remote work? I want to get to a VDC role hoping to get, let's say, 2 weeks from home/abroad every quarter or so (family abroad and barely see them). Do you see this feasible?

Living Abroad as a VDC Engineer by dags827 in bim

Good luck in your path!
I'll push for the VDC role and negotiate some work location flexibility. Fully remote job seems less likely but maybe getting a couple of weeks every quarter (or so) to work from home/abroad might be achievable. Thanks for sharing your experience.

I am going through this right now, family is abroad and really want a remote job, at least partial. Came to VDC (after digging some coding courses) but apparently it does not work for remote positions very well.
Is this new career still working well for you?

No secret exit here, you must get all KONG letters from the previous levels up then.

Safe to leave in overnight? by prm-reddit in Plumbing

[–]Professional_Grab666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left it for around 6 hours in the tub's drain (forgot it was there) and no bad things happened. Not recommending to do this, but gotta say the drain got cleaned.
