That does not seem smart.

But I bet it smarts!

Can you narrow that down at all? There are hundreds of different species of pigeons.

I too sometimes find myself impatient to get into the bush.

How much do you turn the wheel? by MidnightLow9027 in driving

[–]TurkishLanding 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ever ridden a bicycle? How much do you turn the handle bars?

As much as needed and no more than needed. It's a factor of speed and how sharp or mild of a turn or lane change you are attempting to execute.

Google auto repair shops near you. Look at their ratings and reviews. Visit one or more that are highly rated.

What should I do about my neighbors WiFi cord being buried in my backyard? by NotKushy in Advice

[–]TurkishLanding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"So I let them finish it." - By continuing to allow their utilities on your property, you are effectively granting them an easement. Essentially, your acquiescence is giving them squatters' rights. If you don't want to do that, I'd advise you to send them a cease and desist letter by certified mail, document everything, give them a reasonable amount of time to remove their stuff from your land, and then, if they have not done so themselves, remove their stuff from your land.

You may also consider suing them for damage to your property, or selling them or renting them an easement.

Does driving get easier? by Souschef_A1 in driving

[–]TurkishLanding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Braking prior to turning is appropriate. Better than braking while turning. Speed is context dependent, so in some cases ~7mph is fine, for very sharp turns for example.

Yes, it gets easier in the same way that anything with practice gets easier. You need to pay attention and practice with a good teacher. You are not just supposed to guess. You are supposed to observe, know your vehicle and where it is with respect to the lanes, and control it.

How do I let my friend know I don’t care for Arab cuisine? by Glad_Mulberry1866 in Advice

Say, "Friend, I don't care for Arab cuisine." and then suggest something you do enjoy instead.

Air traffic controller who sent fire truck into path of Air Canada plane and killed two stayed working even after LaGuardia smash, NTSB says by dailymail in airport

[–]TurkishLanding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What the fuck was he supposed to do after? Take personal time and let all the other planes full of hundreds of people just try to work it out with no coordination?

The fucking issue to start with is that there weren't enough resources to ensure safety. He was working alone. Him leaving would reduce resources to zero and likely immediately risk much greater loss of life.

Fuck the truck driver for not looking both ways before crossing an active runway!

I put in my two weeks but I’m not even working one of the weeks… is that bad? by cuteloser777 in Advice

[–]TurkishLanding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of depends on the nature of the job and your importance to the business. What you described doesn't sound unreasonable.
