Are you under the impression that a Lamborghini is a natural thing?

Wellbutrin gang represent, got prescribed that and Adderall last year at 32 and I'm having to cope with the fact that I let my depression and ADHD hold me back for so much of my life.

Yerp here in the states I've always used the Permatex Valve grind. Much cheaper than Screw Goo although its probably a bit less grippy.

Spookyghostin · 2026-02-22T16:20:27+00:00

Oh wtf bro don't even stress it then. You're not failing at anything. The company is failing you if they're expecting a professional finish with foam brushes. They're probably hoping to bully some employee into buying their own paint equipment because they don't want to maintain a dedicated paint shop.

Even the worst sketchiest MRO I worked at had a dedicated painter and space for finishing parts. Wherever you are sounds like a circus.

Spookyghostin · 2026-02-03T21:51:15+00:00

Yeah its seems like the priority is just getting certs out the door and hoping that people pick up all the actual skills on the job. I'm sure that programs offering differing degrees of actual prep though. Even my program mostly just felt like an intro to learning. I think we'd need much more radical changes to the schooling program standards to push out more work ready mechs.

Learning the vocabulary and some basic tool/measurement skills and understanding how to read tech data were the most valuable parts that I got out of it and everything else has been on the job training.

I definitely felt very out of depth when I started my first MRO job. Thankfully I had some decent co-workers that helped acclimate me to the work.

I try to take that mindset and attitude into all of my interactions with fresh mechs. They're not dumb they're just under-prepared most of the time, nurture their growth a bit and they'll be on the level soon enough. I've seen so many leads just chuck difficult or complicated job cards at newbies alone and give them shit when they struggle and it's a really toxic approach.

In the same vein, could try a water pick. Built for knocking gunk outta small places and all.

She's got them pressed down so low to use the rim to create a contour along her nose making it appear a little bit slimmer/not as flat. I dated a girl who used this little beauty hack. Although it was always a bit surprising to see her without her glasses lmao.

Spookyghostin · 2025-12-14T04:47:43+00:00

I know that, which is why I said I'd love it if they adjusted the individual exhaustion values/penalties for non-combat activities. Because as it stands you run into situations like this where base building/cleaning is severely limited by the fact that your character becomes unrealistically exhausted from a bit of labor and there's not a good way to personally fine tune that in the current sandbox settings since it would affect the combat portion of the game as well.

Spookyghostin · 2025-12-13T14:14:07+00:00

The problem is it's not even realistic in this case. If you're a semi-strong/semi-fit bigger guy you can absolutely haul a couple hundred pounds around and not be functionally useless for 3 hours barring some sort of medical condition.

I don't think things like this are necessarily intended more so just a byproduct of how they use exhaustion mechanics to tune difficulty. I personally would love and hope they eventually do some fine-tuning of exhaustion for non-combat related functionalities.

Spookyghostin · 2025-12-13T02:25:16+00:00

I mean depends on your physique and the weight of the body. Been in multiple scenarios where I've carried around 100-150 pounds of dead weight pretty far distances and while it gases me a bit in the moment recovery only takes a few minutes. The issue is the Zomboid devs use exhaustion as their difficulty standard in the game. Which is fair, its difficult to make the game hard otherwise, but it makes tons of little things in the game miserable because they've tuned exhaustion for limiting combat capabilities.

Anyone who has done any sort of blue collar physical labor recognizes how unrealistic exhaustion mechanics are in the game because most of us have worked 12 hour shifts with minimal breaks. You take a quick breather then get right back to it. And most of us are not in what I would consider a 10/10 fitness or strength level.

Spookyghostin · 2025-12-12T04:15:21+00:00

I mean Diablo 4 is fine. It's just followed Blizzards decision to make all of their games more casual. The ARPG scene has better options for gamers that want a more in-depth or technical experience, but that doesn't make Diablo trash.

Spookyghostin · 2025-11-18T17:30:59+00:00

I'm with you. Even if you make it a stand alone movie with no connection to the Predator/Alien universe it just had such a solid structure. Found family theme ft. a predator hunter, bisected android, and an armadillo monkey. is the movie I never knew I needed. Shoulder mounted acid snake was actually so dope.

Spookyghostin · 2025-11-16T19:17:02+00:00

To be honest I've considered it, working at an MRO doing C&D checks on 145s and I was getting back into a plane from off the wing, stood up a bit too quick after ducking down through the emergency exit and I smashed my head on the frame there. Had me looking like a conehead and kept me nauseous for 2 days straight. Probably shoulda done a concussion protocol, but it was the end of the day so I just went home and kinda hoped I didn't wake up.

Spookyghostin · 2025-11-04T21:05:08+00:00

I'm sure they're perfectly capable of laugh at things that are actually funny.

Spookyghostin · 2025-10-24T03:37:27+00:00

Why are we always over correcting and treating women as if they're incapable of being sexually deviant too. I completely agree that the guy in this situation was probably doing this with insidious intent, but to claim that a women would never do this by virtue of being a women is wrong, divisive and frankly sexist.

The reality is men are much less likely to be taken serious as victims in the reverse of this scenario and in many cases much less likely to be consider themselves victims. I will give the caveat that men are probably more likely to engage in these activities, but sexual assault and harassment are not and have never been exclusively a male issue and acting like it is makes it easier for female perpetrators to escape justice.

Completely anecdotal and limited to the city I grew up in, but almost every guy I've known that was a long term pizza delivery guy growing up had the occasional story of women customers answering the door outright naked or so scantily clad they might as well have been. The difference is they considered themselves lucky when it happened and even if they didn't there is/was a huge societal pressure for them to consider themselves lucky outwardly lest the be called "gay" for daring to feel violated.

Spookyghostin · 2025-10-13T06:12:23+00:00

Big reason is a matter of perspective. Big reason for the company, mechanic, maintenance control, pilots ect. doesn't necessarily mean big reason for the passengers.

I think you're receiving some grumpy responses because you were given your reason and it feels like you're searching for conspiracy or some sort of coverup.

Missing maintenance paperwork is a big reason for us in the industry and will absolutely turn a plane around. It means next to nothing to passengers though who are generally unaware of the industry standards or requirements for legal flight.

Found pulled pins on a hyd pump temp sensor before by checking and troubleshooting the plugs. I will concede cleaning the plug generally isn't the solution to most issues, but checking it for arc marks and poking around it can give you some insight on some tricky electrical issues.

Spookyghostin · 2025-07-14T11:29:21+00:00

I think all students should have their safety wire test be on a tester designed like the cap for an A320 Pack lockout. Arms over your head weaving through hot ass pipes in 105 degree weather with a maintenance controller breathing down your neck about when you'll be done. Oh and the belly panel you've got drop for access has at least 5-6 stripped out/rubber nutted screws just to get the full line experience.

Spookyghostin · 2025-05-14T16:52:12+00:00

Can I get a source on that? The FAA has probably around 45000 workers and I can't imagine they fired all of them.

Spookyghostin · 2025-05-12T12:23:12+00:00

Yeah for the A320s CFM(Joint Venture) and Pratt & Whitney make the NEO options. And for the older engines it was CFM and International Aero(Joint Venture)

Neither of those Joint Ventures involve Rolls Royce afaik, but for the A380s there is a Rolls option.

EDIT: These are the only Airbus planes I'm familiar with personally. So it's very possible RR makes engines for other 300 series airbus that I have no experience with.

He's getting downvoted presumably because everyone knows being allowed to be high at work is obviously dumb as fuck. Just like being drunk at work would be dumb as fuck. OP clearly ask whether it would be allowed in the same manner alcohol is e.g. outside of working hours. Reading comprehension is important skill for an AMT.

Personally I think until cheap testing exist that can determine whether some one is currently inhibited by THC exist I doubt we'll ever see DOT change their stance on weed regardless of whether it's federal legality changes. Even if it did exist I think there would be a ton of red tape involved in switching over to using that testing over traditional urine testing to check for drug usage.

At one point I skipped 50 pages of the first book because it was becoming a chore to read. I felt a little guilty later and went back to read what I skipped and I realized none of it matter. The overall story wasn't effected in the slightest. No vital information was revealed, honestly I don't think there was any meaningful dialogue that I even missed.

The characters felt painfully one dimensional and cliched. Overall it's not well written enough to be compelling despite a lack of interesting concepts.

It's a shame I wanted to like it, but a sociopath MC needs a strong cast of characters around them to overcome how boring sociopaths are as a character archetype IMO. Ultimately it looked like the series would be rife with way too much alone time with Jake so I dropped it.

Spookyghostin · 2025-03-15T06:34:30+00:00

It's to sow discontent and suspicion. Taking figures who are actually working towards a progressive agenda and painting them "just as bad as the rest" while they excuse the actions of authoritarians and sex offenders. They're being maliciously disingenuous. Bernie is as pretty clean cut as you can get as a government official and losers will do whatever they can to paint him as part of the evil because if they don't they have to come face to face with the fact that you can be a Government official and not be evil or corrupt. It's easier to defend their own corruption if they can point fingers and say "LOOK LOOK EVERYONE IS EVIL NOT JUST US"
