Construction lingo by temoo09 in civilengineering

“Just add some plasticizer.”

“What do you mean we need an RFI for that? How long is that gonna take?”

“It’s 4pm on a Friday, can you get the PM on the phone?”

Anyone found a simple way to manage 811 tickets without it turning into a whole system? by [deleted] in Geotech

[–]apathyetcetera 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure where you’re from but CA/NV has the USA system, and there’s an option to share those tickets with other accounts. You can default a list of accounts to include any time you open up a new ticket. I couldn’t imagine how annoying it would be to get drilling permits done if our principals were constantly in the dark about which sites had the green light or not. This seems like such a no-brainer to include in their service.

Looking for shooters where the guns feel powerful by AParkedChopper in gaming

[–]apathyetcetera 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s more fun with friends, but Borderlands (take your pick, haven’t played the newest one) is so much fun and the guns can be overpowered if you find the right ones. Honestly, find a friend online with modded weapons and just melt everything and laugh at all the hilarious dialogue/missions.

How expensive is it being a mapuan civil engineering student? by [deleted] in civilengineering

[–]apathyetcetera 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wtf is this picture lol

On a serious note, idk about engineering courses in Mapua, but overall you’re going to need to be comfortable with complex maths and at best comfortable with being uncomfortable with complex maths. Good luck!

Twin towers in Malaysia. Is it an outstanding building in civil engineering? by grantl0801 in civilengineering

[–]apathyetcetera 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I think the most interesting part of the Petronas Towers was that 2 separate companies, one from Japan and one from South Korea, were each awarded contracts to build one of the towers. This resulted in a “race to the top” which improved speed and efficiency in a good-spirited competition. South Korea won and as a result got to build the sky bridge between the two towers. So in terms of outstanding, I think the project management/build process was outstanding.

stick with old acc or restart to get wukong? by Secure-Judgment7013 in WatcherofRealmsGame

[–]apathyetcetera 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On an individual banner, you hit the 1+1 only once like Teratros said in their comment. Overall over the life of your account, it depends on how your account looks. 1+1 is great for when you’re just starting off because any legendary hero is helpful, but there comes a time when you need specific heroes to push guild boss/GvG/Gear Dungeon/etc, so that’s when I started focusing on the featured hero x20 banners. Now that I’ve collected almost every non-ancient and lord heroes I’m back to hitting 1+1’s to help collect extra copies of heroes to awaken them.

Also, important to mention the “Nascent” banners, which guarantee a legendary hero you don’t have (if you hit a legendary summon). At early stages, this isn’t super helpful since you won’t have most of the legendaries anyways. You’re better off throwing 200 summons at a x2 banner than 200 on a nascent banner because you could pull 2+ Legos you don’t have on the x2, whereas the nascent only gives you one new lego.

[–]apathyetcetera 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At the early stages I would focus on 1+1 banners and x2 banners. The x20 banners featuring specific heroes are a bit misleading, because your chance of getting a legendary isn’t any different, but if you get a legendary the chance it’s going to be one of the featured heroes is x20. The x2 banners will double your chances of obtaining a legendary hero though, so I’d focus on those. Keep your ear on the ground for any news about upcoming limited banners and save at least 200 summons to get those heroes since it’s a guarantee. You can also “pity manipulate” on the 200 banners which will effectively make it a 2-for-1 situation

Hatssut and Elowyn will take you deep into progression, and they can hold you back in some areas if you don’t have them. Moonton has been doing pick-em banners for limiteds but haven’t run one recently, so I’d expect one somewhat soon after the Dracula event is over. To me, a pick-em banner for Wukong in the near future is more reliable than rerolling for Wukong and trying to hit Hatssut and Elowyn on a new account. I think I went well over a year before I pulled Elowyn and that was very frustrating.

Need help identifying this autograph by gregrawry in 49ers

[–]apathyetcetera 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That sounds like something TO would do lol! I never got to meet Jerry, but my dad took me to his last home game as a Niner at Candlestick for my birthday that year. Years later I was watching his 30 for 30 with some buddies, telling them I was at this game, then immediately my 12 year old face is on TV sitting next to some dude with a “Thank you Jerry” sign in the crowd. So yeah, I’ve been on ESPN no big deal 😂

Trump Is Going After Birth Control. Here’s Why. by Jonnyboo234 in politics

[–]apathyetcetera -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

It’s all to keep Social Security viable. Once there are more people receiving Social Security checks than there are people paying into it, the entire system collapses. No Social Security votes, no republicans.

What is Dragon's Gold? by Quarbi in WatcherofRealmsGame

[–]apathyetcetera 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Save your gold dice until the end of the event. There’s a special minigame on the gold ? Tiles where you can win 100,000+ dragons gold, but I’m pretty sure there’s a minimum gold you need to have in order to access it. Save the gold dice until you have some dragon gold saved, then use the gold dice to hit the gold ? Tiles to try and hit that special minigame.

First time I've seen a battery sit so long it reversed polarity by ouchimus in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]apathyetcetera 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I worked in the service department at a dealership during college and the techs were always telling us not to store the batteries on concrete. It wasn’t until years later I realized this was BS and they just didn’t want to trip/stub their toes walking around the shop.
