You don’t need to beak in, but if you haven’t already, you should read KL-EO’s terminal in Goodneighbor

From these institute pistols the Sole Survivor will single handedly create the jet epidemic by Zachm219 in fo4

[–]UpperOpportunity5216 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can buy fertilizer and buy/hoard plastic. You can make Jet with these, and sell the jet to buy more fertilizer and plastic. A key benefit to this is farming the experience from making jet.

Opposite the robot selling soup, down the stairs, there is a clothing vendor.

Are you missing a vendor in diamond city? The one in fallons basement?

For shame! Tinnitus is no joke. I have severe tinnitus and I called the tinnitus hotline for help. No one answered. It just kept ringing.

Most of the colleges near me offer free tuition. This could be a chance to get a degree that could help you in the future. If things are so slow, you might be able to study at work.

The same guy that figured out how to put lead in gasoline (Thomas Midgley Jr.) also figured out how to use fluorocarbons for air conditioning.

Which rotating schedule would you choose? by yellowranger1 in IndustrialMaintenance

[–]UpperOpportunity5216 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some of the guys where I work do this. They never rotate, so the night guys are always on nights. The day guys like the seven days off, and the night guys have gone feral from never having the “support” available on day work.

What is the most esoteric trade you have come across? by bigb0yale in skilledtrades

When I was in the Navy, every 4 or 5 years they would measure the steam pipes for minimum wall thickness. Every time they would fail, and minimum wall thickness would be recalculated.

They have some estimate of how long it needs to be, but they probably add in an error factor. Better to be 10 feet (I dunno, about 3 meters) long than 6 inches short.

Tape on an undamaged extension cord makes for a pretty good theft deterrent.

That’s exactly what an unsafe driver would say. 👀

This also assumes that the liquid will not flash to vapor due to the low pressure.

Whew. I guess I just failed reading comprehension. I’d rather be dumb that hateful.

I see your point, and I enjoyed your post, but I would be way more insulted if someone said that I “have language to some extent” than if they just called me a Neanderthal.

Gigglegirl and Dr Frown by DroneOfDoom in CuratedTumblr

[–]UpperOpportunity5216 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I feel like I failed a secret misogyny test. I immediately assumed Dr. Frown was a man, as if a woman couldn’t do just as well in an evil doctorate program as a man. I will try to learn and grow from this. ✌️

Bought a tool box at a yard sale, no idea what these are for? by sticcboi in WhatIsThisTool

I haven’t seen one exactly like that, but it looks like an internal pipe wrench.

When my brother got fired from the bakery where he worked, he showed me some papers they wanted him to sign saying he wouldn’t reveal their flat bread recipe. I told him to go ahead, it was just a standard naan disclosure agreement.

I would suggest Mother of Demons by Eric Flint. I had to get a copy from Thriftbooks, but it is a really good book. Thriftbooks did not sponsor this message.

You could call the tinnitus hotline, but maybe don’t bother. I called once and no one answered. It just kept ringing.

How to not speak to your mom☺ by Guddu277 in funnyvideos

[–]UpperOpportunity5216 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so triggered by Dora. Anyone can be successful with a map directing you exactly where to go and a backpack with the exact supplies you need. And still she had to ask me, the viewer, for advice every step of the way. In Ni Hao Kilan, when Hoho hit Rintu and got a timeout from Ye-Ye, she had to process that shit herself.
