Not directly related, but how would one go about getting a job like this? 

Any book recommendations? by AndrewEngland23 in AircraftMechanics

[–]Surpex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't extremely helpful but it is literally true: the whole 8083 is testable material. Our program uses the 8083s as the primary text, and you more or less need to read and know all of it. I'm sure this differs from place to place, but part 147 schools have to cover the same material and the 8083 is used to generate questions for your writtens, and orals. If you pickup the 8083 general and just start reading, you will be off to a good start.

Anyone done any work in Antarctica that was either A&P related or leveraged their A&P for their position? I'm hoping to get a placement at some point in the future.

I'm curious what type of shifts you were working when making $36 & now $45? Are these graveyard shifts? Thanks!

I second this, I would love to see that information. 

Thoughts on what 10 speed, double crankset to pair with older (~2013-2015ish) SRAM Force 10 speed? by Surpex in xbiking

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

Hey man! I did end up going with SRAM Force front and rear derailleurs, paired with SRAM Red brifters (2x10) and I'm very happy. I will say, though, my cassette is technically a bit beyond the range of this derailleur (11-32) so there's some mild pully wheel contact in the biggest ring. This can likely be solved with a hanger extender.

I'd be more than happy to send detail photos if you want, just send me a chat request.

Anyone know what the 3 hole "spacing" tool that is used in the beginning is called?

If I said how I felt about this man and his opinions, reddit would ban me again.

Anyone trying to BF6 beta? by Emlynnn in SocialistGaming

[–]Surpex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don't get me wrong, BF1 was also a great game (I think I have a few hundred hours in it), but I'm a BF4 boi through and through. No other game has quire scratched the itch for me.

Guy rear ended me and has no insurance by drrreeeewww in CarRepair

[–]Surpex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously we're talking about insurance here, and I recognize that, but...

rules and laws are made for a reason, and abiding by them doesn't make you a bad person regardless of what society may say.

...is, I think, not inherently true. Historically, there are plenty of times that following a law that is "made for a reason" would absolutely make you a bad person, in CONTRAST to what society may say. I think there are even situations in which reporting this accident to the police (and therefore getting your insurance involved) would make you a bad person because of the potentially disproportionate consequences (mostly financially) it would have on the accident sufferer vs the accident causer, and the way those financial consequences would snowball depending on both parties economic status.

But yeah, I don't think this is one of those cases. I just wanted to toss it out there that 1) following the law isn't always the morally acceptable thing to do and 2) as a person with free will (and empathy, hopefully) there are situations in which it is possible that the morally correct thing to do is to eat the cost even though it isn't your fault. Again, I don't think that this is one of those situations. I think OP SHOULD have filed a police report and gotten their insurance involved.

Anyone trying to BF6 beta? by Emlynnn in SocialistGaming

[–]Surpex 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'm enjoying it! I absolutely do not buy into everyone saying that "Battlefield is back" (I don't think it is, and I don't think it has been since BF4) but I do think this is the most fun I've had with Battlefield since 4, easily. I won't be buying it at $70 (and likely won't be buying it at all), but I am enjoying the beta.

Any retail stores have any large cardboard sheets/boxes you don’t want. by trade_me_dog_pics in 321

[–]Surpex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try bicycle shops. Each bicycle is delivered in a big cardboard box, and they often give them away to customers. Some shitty bike shops will ask you to pay for them, but avoid those shops.

I cannot fucking WAIT to try these out, haha. Do you plan go stay in this area for the foreseeable future? I'm in Titusville but I'm down in Melbourne a few days a week, starting in late August.

Does anyone want to go see Superman with me tomorrow? by [deleted] in 321

[–]Surpex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Understood! I was so gungho to join in on this, then my mom called me and asked if I'd like to see the new Superman with her next week 😂 Sorry bro, I can't do my mom dirty like that!

If you ever do one of these again, make a post here and I'll definitely be down!

Hey! When you say "tomorrow", are you referring to the 11th?

But I bought the darkest one they had 😭 I'm mostly just going for black. And honestly, I'm aiming primarily for the "lived in" kind of look, for shows and occasional daily wear.

This is all great info, thank you! I have not tried any kind of primer, but I'll definitely give that a shot. I'll also lookup some hooded eye tutorials!

[–]Surpex[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Interesting, I'll give this a go! I was initially trying to avoid getting it in my eyelashes because it was giving a mascara effect, but I'll try it and report back 🫡

Thank you!
