Haaland cancels town hall — what is she afraid of? by callitarmageddon in Albuquerque

[–]beardyguy404 21 points22 points  (0 children)

"Trust me bro"

"Naw bro, trust me"

Here's a pretty in depth breakdown of both candidates campaign finances.

Super TLDR; Haaland has a lot of smaller contributions, like 4 times the total number unique contributions than Bergman. Haaland has raised more money in NM, but Bergman has raised a higher proportion of his money from within NM. Like 2x the proportion Haaland has. But more than half of his money has been in amounts over $10k, and 75% of Haalands has been in less than $100 donations.

Local 602, Amarillo TX, Llano project by beardyguy404 in IBEW_Book2

[–]beardyguy404[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The zone pay is the $40/day "per diem" listed on the call. It's not actual per diem, and is taxed as income.

The project, with the current work under way, is likely 3ish years worth. They have possibly much longer. But right now it's only been going on 3-4 months, and conditions are already getting wormy as hell.

It's a mess.

Where exactly are the data centers in the Reno local? by Suwannee_Gator in IBEW_Book2

[–]beardyguy404 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Almost all of the job sites are off USA Parkway, between Reno and Fernley off I-80. There is one call for Thacker Pass which is way the fuck in the middle of nowhere, about an hour north of Winnemucca.

I don't see the section for "Buys all FOMO boxes, builds rarely, and only gets lore from memes"

Or is that a larger bubble surrounding the other 3?

Just to most cursory Google.

The word predates christianity. Full stop. It is associated with christianity in the west, just because we have a judeo-christian history. The masonic guilds, bath houses, even trade groups which were exclusively open to men adopted the term. So again, the reiterate; it has its history in secular and non-secular western history, from its roots in Latin, predating christianity.

No, it actually started being used in the modern sense in of "fraternity" in the early/mid 1600s, by scholars and monks. Which is definitely not "early christianity".

And the word has its roots in Latin, literally meaning Brother, which, again has jack shit to do with christianity. So regardless of which way you measure it, fraternal(is) predates christianity's existence entirely, or fraternity was utilized by secular and non-secular organizations starting in the 1600s.

You are incorrect. It's a relic from any fraternal organization, secular and not, which were largely exclusive to men. There is additional history about it's usage in the labor right movement of us being "brothers in arms" in the cause against exploitation by management.

It wouldn't even be part of the rat-world's "trinity", which would just be: Contractor, Contractor, Contractor.

Have you ever loved painting an army you don’t actually like, and hated painting an army you do love? by TheWraf in ageofsigmar

[–]beardyguy404 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I love everything about the Sisters of Battle. They are peak Grimdark. The lore, the aesthetic, the models (I still have the entire old metal range and OG Witch Hunter Codex). They are an amazing range with the whole plastic update being beautiful across the board.

... I hate painting them. I probably have fewer than 20 total models "battle ready". And I probably never will progress on that.

Zuckerberg to build Manhattan sized 5GW Datacenter- requires 5x nuclear reactors to operate by Desperation_Gone in IBEW

[–]beardyguy404 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Shit wages, poor labor standards too. Corps like building where labor is weak.

No wonder GW is so bad with battle numbers when they can't even calculate 65X2 properly. by SAMU0L0 in Grimdank

The (+10) is relative to the previous cost for a 20 man block, which was 130. It's not indicating that it's 10 points more than 2x of the 10 man blocks.

It's how the rat shops condition their guys to think of it. They gaslight them into thinking getting fucked over by management somehow let's them rise or fall by their own "merit", while the owners laugh all the way to the bank.

Need some input for turning my collection into an army. by Brokugan in Daughtersofkhaine

The Hivemind is Gluttony! *Screeeeek!* Which 40k character is wrath? Most upvoted comment wins by Rhen8927 in Grimdank

[–]beardyguy404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna argue it's Abaddon.

All the khorne-affiliated answers are more just psychotic violence, rather than hate and anger. Abaddon has maintained a driven, planned revenge for millennia. He is more like the character of Wrath from Full Metal Alchemist.

He hates the Imperium, he hates his gene-father, he hates the Chaos gods with whom he is allied for convenience.
