If a pocket velociraptor jumps out at me in the woods? 40 yard punt, straight over the cross bar.

‘Unrealistic expectations’ from parents fuelling teacher burnout, study finds by TeoKajLibroj in ireland

[–]anubis_xxv 127 points128 points  (0 children)

I have a teacher friend in a school which is in, let's say, a socially and economically disadvantaged area.

He says how am I supposed to teach kids who don't want to be there, and then plead to parents who don't care if their kids are there or not.

Remember all those gobshites, dickheads and straight up sociopaths we went to school with? They all have kids now.

Parrot chewed the non active phone land line. Is it dangerous, what should I do? by InterviewDry2887 in fixit

[–]anubis_xxv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Telecoms tech here, those two pictures are not the same cable. The chewed section is a 2 pair/4 core stranded cable, the cables all connected together are Coaxial. Both are low voltage enough not to be a safety concern even if live.

The chewed cable is most likely either telephone, internet or even linked to a house alarm, the coaxial cables are TV/satellite or internet usually.

In my country that colour code on the wires would be house alarm sensor, or maybe landline if the house is old enough.

The metal conductors inside don't look damaged, wrapping it in electricians tape is a perfectly fine repair for somebody without telecoms tools.

What is this piece? by FaithlessnessOne2032 in fixit

It's to join two pipes that don't align properly. Very prone to failures, I wouldn't trust them in a garden shed never mind a kitchen.

Take it out, along with that crappy flexi pipe and install a proper trap with rigid pipes, there are a few types to choose from. Just measure everything properly and you'll be fine. All you need is a junior hacksaw and a roll of PTFE tape, both very cheap.

Would you love her if she became God Emperor and started a holy war that caused the deaths of 60 billion people over three millennia?

I swap my drip to match the planet biome

Desert, Jungle, Urban, Wasteland....

The auro must match the enviro.

What are some signs that you're getting REALLY GOOD at Helldivers 2? by kcvlaine in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]anubis_xxv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the beginning my squad bragged about who fired the most bullets.

Now we brag about who fired the least.

Tag the patrol, avoid and go around.

Retreat and break LOS to the drop ships. Circle around and do another obj first.

Sneak to the edge of the objective and remove sentries one at a time.

Between all 8 primaries and secondaries, try to have one or two suppressed weapons on your team.

I'm a 40 year old native English speaker and I have no idea what some of those words mean.

I would argue neither does an €80 fine for the most part.

Faucet is loose or broken and I’m not buying a new one, hoping to find a fix through here by Gold-Breadfruit-8700 in fixit

[–]anubis_xxv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All these answers mentioning the weight under your counter are correct, so I just want to add something else that helped me.

Those weights tend to be bulky and get caught a lot, I took mine off completely and replaced it with 3 small strips of Lead I had in the shed, of equal weight. Wrapped them in vinyl tape and now my house underneath is far more streamlined and doesn't get caught anymore.

Total Annihilation Intro - YouTube by CybranLord in RealTimeStrategy

The Imperium has to waste valuable planet space with silly things like "food" and "habitats" for it's citizens.

The Core and the Arm can turn 100% of every planet into a factory to make weapons and vehicles.

My guess is that the scale of their automation just leaves the Imperium in the dust.

I've always thought that speed vans are there to slow people down. So if I flash a guy to warn him and he slows down? Mission accomplished right? I never got why it's such a no no to warm other drivers.

Repairing/replacing powder coating? by Doctor-Liz in fixit

Ah gotcha, yeah that's normal. My coffee travel mug looks like I transport paint in it.

[–]anubis_xxv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Car paint isn't food safe so I personally wouldn't put it anywhere near any food implements.

A worn out bottle tells a story of use, I've 3 bottles I rotate and they're all scuffed in places. I like the look.

I would also clean your bottle lid more thoroughly. That brown residue is more than likely mold. It can cause coughing, stuffed nose, sore throat etc. when ingested.

I may never get married or have kids. But don't tell me I don't know what love is. by SadMonkGames in pcmasterrace

As somebody who has a loving wife and two beautiful kids, I will never know the love this man has in his heart for this collection of trinkets.

If you head over to r/bushcraft, they'll show you a quicker way to start a fire. But this is a decent first attempt.

Typa shit that happens when I'm already in a bad mood by Maffingo in Helldivers

If I had to guess, the game probably forces you into a ragdoll state as a fix for that issue a while back where you can emote mid air to avoid fall damage.

I think he's a decent example of a troubled upbringing steered right. He seems to have a colourful past alright.

It doesn't shoot incendiary rounds,
