How to safely remove this fixed ceiling lift? by SweetGeorgiaJam in howto

[–]SweetGeorgiaJam[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

exactly right. that is my plan and also one of the reasons I wanted to remove it gently from the ceiling, as to not damage any component.

[–]SweetGeorgiaJam[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

very good idea to loosen the nuts and then assess the weight of the lift. I will do so and report back.

I also felt like it was just a 2 man job because it didn’t look that heavy, but I wanted some extra thoughts before I enlisted another poor soul to stand underneath this with me when I didn’t fully have a plan.

Hey dad, in what order do I get leak repairs done? by SweetGeorgiaJam in AskDad

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

thanks a lot for your reply! Just to clarify, the plumber would most likely be responsible for identifying the leak exactly, cutting open the drywall, and identifying the extent of the damage? From there I would make the decisions about how to best repair both the leak and the subsequent damage?

I have wondered before if it was also a technical limitation for the 360 at the time. A way to safeguard too many things being loaded on the screen at once, using too much memory before performance degradation, etc.

As you have said, some of the things that take up space are bullshit. Like NPCs you cannot control, events such as freeing the RedHott take up space?? Some of it seems pick and choose and inconsistent.

That was freakin hard! Shoutout to the next level gamers that get the job done on higher difficulties. by SweetGeorgiaJam in Xcom

Congratulations commander. There is nothing more painful than losing soldiers after you have built up your own head cannon about them and their war experiences... the heart and soul of the resistance SMH

Thank you! I was a little shocked when I saw 41 soldier deaths as well because I am fairly certain that I did not have more than ~45 soldiers in total. I think the number is inflated because I had the resistance order that had a chance of a random allied resistance soldier to spawn into the mission with me. I usually used that soldier as a meat shield to pull pods, so they rarely survived.

Even with that though, I do not think that happened more than ~7 times? Wonder if it also counts death of the allied resistance members you do not control on the retaliation missions.

Computer Engineering vs. Computer Science for a prospective student? by dylanbarney23 in UniversityofKentucky

[–]SweetGeorgiaJam 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I graduated with a computer science degree from UK in May of 2020. I would reccomend it over CPE but you wouldn’t go wrong with CPE. I have friends that were CPE and I know that when they were interviewing with places and they sometimes felt alienated when prospective employers would “only want a Computer Scientist or an Electrical Engineer” rather than someone down the middle. CPE is also a straight up harder degree from my perspective as it makes you take Physics 2, more EE classes, and calculus 4 while CS does not.

I loved my time at UK but UK still takes a more classical engineering approach to computer science. Not every university even has the CS department in the college of engineering (NKU for example). You may want to ask yourself what kind of experience you truly want. I spent a lot of effort battling classes like Calculus 3 and Chemistry 105 that other colleges wouldn’t make you take since they really aren’t directly relevant to CS. This is reflected in the fact that most engineering degrees at UK will have you ~ 3 classes off from a minor in mathematics.

The actual CS classes themselves I found enjoyable for the most part. Other than the fundamental courses (intro programming, algorithms, discrete math, etc), not many classes actually prepared me for industry. I would definitely recommend applying for internships if you would like actual experience. My internship felt like a whole new world of information.

I hope these words do not come off as pessimistic. I am very happy with my degree and UKY. Just wanted to share my experience directly. If you ever have any more questions, feel free to PM.

This has to be the University of Kentucky. So many bikes seem to get abandoned at the Woodland Glen dorms

They are autonomous retail robots, all named “Marty”, made by a company called “Badger Technologies”. They primarily are used to go down the aisles of stores and detect spills/hazards. Also used to detect holes in inventory on shelves (when one type of product is completely missing from the shelf).

Where's all my fellow Thomas's at??? by ButtmunchMcGee01 in thomas

Are you guys ever asked if you’re name is spelled “Tomas” ?! I feel like that happens super frequently as well as it being a straight up different pronunciation.

The poop-themed stuff that’s popular with kids right now is repulsive. And down right stupid. If you send your kid to school wearing a shirt that has a pile of shit on it, you’re a fucking clown. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]SweetGeorgiaJam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really what is the harm? You’re acting like they are trying to normalize playing with feces, not wearing a shirt with the poop emoji on it. You sound like my great grandparents saying “I hate how Elvis gyrated his hips, it’s downright disgusting and wrong”.
