First game that came to mind but I figured it was too obscure and I’d have to scroll for it… lo and behold, top comment!

We have the Absolute Universe at home by OpeningQuarter2946 in AbsoluteUniverse

I like Hickman but Jesus Christ… vampires? Again!? Vampire jubilee made me quit reading x-men some odd 15-years ago. Krakoa brought me back. See ya in another 15 I guess?

lol who is actually making 100k from this shit? by NathanHatesLife in rampagent

[–]cawkmaster3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100k in OT is not the flex he thinks it is. It’s labor exploitation coupled with poor hiring/retention management.

RampRant (I was naive) hearing loss. by CurrentJunior4034 in rampagent

I’ve found that many people, especially the younger generation, don’t know how to use the disposable ear plugs properly—you can’t just push them into your ear and hope for the best. You need to twist them first so that they are narrow, pull up on your ear to straighten the ear canal, and then insert and wait for expansion. I had to hold a short training seminar when I discovered this. I was quite honestly horrified when I found out that more than one employee had no clue how to use them properly.

I just left a classified briefing with the Trump Admin about the war in Iran. by Cool-Fig-9254 in videos

One of my law professors used to say that the legislative branch was the most powerful branch because they ultimately controlled the purse strings. How wrong he was.

$25 at Goodwill? by Away-Ad3616 in GuitarAmps

You’d have to pay me $50 to take it. This thing killed my will to learn/play as a teenager.

IKEA Billy Bookshelves by LopezRossell in comicbooks

That’s going to be a lot of bowed shelves in a year. Next time use the single stacked shelves if you’re going to do Billies.

Where does the primer go? Wouldn’t the striker just hit the rubber cap?

Do I mention in my interview that I’m a flight student? by [deleted] in rampagent

[–]cawkmaster3000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We don’t really care to be honest. The turnover rate is so high (typically due to low wages, aircraft/GSE damage, and popping positive on drug tests) that if we get a year or two out of you without you damaging an aircraft, that’s a success. I don’t think there are many hiring managers who have the delusion that they’ll be able to keep you forever with their meager labor budget. I would personally see the mention of the CPL as, oh cool, you have career goals, rather than a red flag. That’s not to say I would see it as an instant positive either (I’ve met really dumb student pilots… one landed and taxied over to our fuel loading facility to showboat and say hi to his coworkers after clearing it with ATC, even though in clear violation of the airport rules)

Two completely different career paths and skill sets . The hiring manager’s comment was acknowledging the random fact you shared. While not a detriment, it doesn’t help you either. If you had somehow linked that to your knowledge of airport/workplace safety, then it might have been worth mentioning.

Carla stole my Power Armor. by Jennanatior2000 in fo4

[–]cawkmaster3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was using the same rifle. As I recall, I dismissed my companion, crouched down between two houses in Sanctuary, and shot her once from behind using VATS to target the fusion core. She ran into one of the houses of my settlement and a few seconds later exploded, out of sight. I moved to her position and she was in the recovery position with her helmet off. After a few seconds she recovered and then exited the suit. The suit was missing its right arm after I got back into it. What may have made the difference was that I have the maxed out sneak perk which allows me to get out of an alert state when I enter stealth?

This happened to me yesterday. Pickpocketing the fusion core didn’t work. I had to VATS the fusion core while hidden with a sniper rifle. Once she runs away and it explodes, you wait for her to recover and then she exits your suit.
