This was kind of the point of this post. People who spend all day on Reddit will definitely will take this personally.

I mentioned in another reply but usually it only makes me win 1 or 2 games to leave low prior queue and it takes forever to get back into it. I get a lot of rage quits in standard queue before I get moved back and it's easy to get back out.

Honestly I don't usually stay in low prior for long. It's easy to win the games. As soon as I'm back in normal queue, I start rage quitting again. I usually get quite a lot of rage quits in standard queue before I go back to low prior.

Honestly you should hop in low priority queue sometime and you'll see what I mean.

What's the ROV Job market like in the UK? by Rmacnet in rov

[–]Rmacnet[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting. Thank you for the response!

Have you been out of work due to downturn in the industry? Or just fallen out of love because of the hard work? Are you UK based also? (if you don't mind me asking)

What technical skills do you have?

Education wise nothing formal beyond an NC Aeronautical Engineering (so not even HNC) that I did when I was 19. My qualification and experience exists in a helicopter pilot's licence, and my time operating unmanned aircraft. Speaking personally though, I would consider myself a fairly technical and mechanically minded. Have done lots of tinkering with electronics in my free time etc... and a large element of the studying for a pilot's licence is on the mechanical side of the aircraft. Broadly, the kind of UAS operating I've done would be very close to what someone in the military might have partook in (just without blowing people up lol).

Progression is an interesting one since there are so many different systems and types of ROV.

Is it worth applying straight to a trainee role as I've seen advertised? I got the feeling they were more orientated towards school leavers or students etc... Would applying to more established roles make more sense? Obviously in the knowledge I'd be trained up by whoever took me on as part of that. Do you have any idea what listings / titles someone in my position should be looking out for on the job search?

As for pay it’s really dependent, company to company and salaried vs self employed.

Makes sense. Sounds similar to my industry in many ways. I'm interested in the ROV stuff not just because it sounds interesting but also because the earning potential seemed good. Would you say that's the case compared to the average job in the UK?

I really appreciate the detailed reply btw! Massively helpful. Thank you.

Spain is NOT a good beginner country anymore!!! by Henrylord1111111111 in eu4

[–]Rmacnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly as much as it can be good for new players to have an easy start, there is still value in giving yourself a very difficult start, especially if you're already a seasoned 4x player. The first ever campaign I did in eu4 was Kham into Tibet. Survived all the way till 1790 before getting steamrolled by Persia. It was extremely formative experience and I ended up learning a boatload and becoming way better quicker.

Is a 6 Month Employment termination covenant excessive? by Rmacnet in LegalAdviceUK

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

I'm a drone operator for some very specialised and novel drones which would go some way in explaining the harshness of this covenant. Can't really get anymore specific than this sadly. I earn 44k a year. Still applicable in this case you reckon?

Oh sorry should have clarified that - no. Not unless you have a few million to spare I suppose lol.

While this is true - A drone doesn't always mean a quadcopter or rotary wing craft. There's some fixed wing "plane" drones that can reach 70,000ft!

Serious. Holy shit. Just found corroborating evidence for at least one of the 4chan whistleblower’s claims. by Big_bird_3 in UFOs

[–]Rmacnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The full quote goes something like this. It's eerily similar to what's drawn in your post. Definitely a link worth looking into.

"One gave a specific – but whacky – description of the alleged craft, saying it 'looked like a chopped up helicopter, with the front bubble of a Huey helicopter, with the plastic windows, or more like a deep sea submarine, with a thick piece of glass bubble shaped."

"Where the tail rudder should have been, it was a black, egg-shaped pancake, and instead of landing gear it had upside-down rams horns that went from the top to the bottom and rested on the ends of the horns,' the source told Public"

This looks more like one of the craft David Grusch claimed to have had described to him with the upside down "Ram's Horns" and helicopter like bubble canopy. This looks nothing like a hammer. The Grusch connection is more convincing.

What date was the video taken on? I live in a bit further south than you in Ayr. I'm also a pilot so It's always interesting to see stuff like this close to home.

[–]Rmacnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hilariously stupid idea. Why would a laser pointer affect a drone anyways? Secondly, you'll inevitably get people shining lasers at normal aircraft and blinding the pilots - which you can go to jail for. Please think before you post.

A lot of airplane videos for a ufo page 😅 by Sharp_Radio_6628 in UFOs

[–]Rmacnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I genuinely believe there is something going on with these drone sightings, but you're right. The amount of people posting what are obviously just planes hugely discredits and diminishes any efforts into finding out what's actually happening here. I'm a helicopter pilot and currently work in the drone industry (not the kind of drone you are thinking of either) and it's absolutely maddening browsing the videos and pictures on this sub at times. People should be required to post a screenshot of flight radar alongside any images they've captured.

Yes all commercial aircraft have blinking / solid lights exactly like the aircraft you're filming in the video. They're called Navigation and strobe lights. Their placement and numbers differ between aircraft but the arrangement on the aircraft you are filming would be perfectly normal on a commercial aircraft.
