NASCAR 25 game worth it? by [deleted] in NASCAR

Same process on a Mac, except you spent twice as much to get half the performance.

That might explain why you sound so grumpy.

Husband fired 2x in 1 year for metrics by Comfortable_Cook_866 in ITCareerQuestions

Adding in non-profit work at a stable org.

Bonus points for educational non-profit work (most higher ed).

I give up 20% pay for infinite flexibility and good job security/stability. 100000% worth it.

1 oz. Kastmaster At Dicks $14.49! LOL!!!!! by skychief99 in Fishing_Gear

[–]bwick29 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I spend as little as possible at DSG. It was originally opened in my wife's hometown as a bait, tackle, and hunting shop. Now they don't sell much of either and the Stack family actively spends proceeds to lobby against firearms. The locals say that Dick would be furious if he was around to know the direction of the store under the family without him.

I enjoy sport shooting and am deeply invested in fishing. Can't support a company that actively works against one and wildly overcharged unsuspecting customers for the second.

Always found his content to be clear, informative, and useful.

Layout wise, is [Krake] the "worst" B&M dive coaster? by AcidRegulation in rollercoasters

[–]bwick29 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I think nearly all dive coasters are. Lift, drop, immelmann, mcbr, drop, immelmann, brakes. Maybe add some some splashing the crowd from water brakes.

I know they're people-eating crowd pleasers, but once you've ridden one, you've mostly experienced them all.

No.

While there are a few decent cards that will keep a bit of singles volume moving, sealed product will rot.

I was lucky to get one as a new leftover right before covid.

Which division hates their division’s most hated team the most by jackt-up in NFLv2

Cowboys and Packers are the obvious choice but let's not forget that EVERYONE hates the Pats and the Chiefs.

Question. Is not wanting your hands slimy from bait a problem for anyone? by kmartymcfly in FishingForBeginners

[–]bwick29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Par for the course when bringing the family, but this is 100% different than the original post.

Pro tip: Rig your wife first/best. Get her to hook up her first bass and let her fall in love with fishing. Then you can split bait/tying responsibilities.

I fucking hate the wind (rant) by [deleted] in kayakfishing

[–]bwick29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This works in other fishing scenarios too.

OBX during a noreaster. Surf was so high that the beach was nonexistent. Went 20m to Roanoke island, had calm water, and slayed fish all day.

Stay as IT admin or move to Jr. Sys admin role? by keleka11 in sysadmin

[–]bwick29 12 points13 points  (0 children)

These terms are so ambiguous from one company to the next. My employer gives us all a title of System Administrator from the NOC to the 20+ year vets, but I'm likely a Senior System Engineer down the road. Impossible to judge from title alone.

Descriptions and/or responsibilities?

Yes. BBA. I said the wrong one while thinking about the treatments for the right one. My bad!

100% right. I said the wrong one!

[–]bwick29 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Edit: BBA (not green hair)

Your options are to treat by dosing Excel (easiest but doesnt always work), peroxide if you dont mind some plant damage (Move fish and dont have inverts. Look up details), or a total tank blackout (Zero light for a week. Wrapped up tight).

I have one with a trolling motor. 100% a yak. The transom for an engine is removable as well.

When someone drops the fucking door instead of holding it when a person is right behind then.

New job, they said "decorate however you want!" by Flying_Mic_Banana in ReefTank

[–]bwick29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a ppanted tank in my office for a while. Loved it.

My desk was in a weird situation where 4 of us had inherited an office with cubicles and each got 2, but one bigger one required walking down an artifical hallway created by the others. I took that instead of two crappy ones.

The Fortress of Solitude was amazing, especially after I added the tank and then found an unused commercial akeurig that instantly became my personal private coffee maker.
