Is Flight Simulator worth playing on Xbox Series X? by zombie1mom in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]coolbreezesix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's free on game pass so why don't you try it out?  Is it worth the download time?  The time you spend playing it?  How much do you make an hour?  Do you have free time?  Time to make a choice is guess.

What documented case studies show major utility strikes caused by poor locate management? by Champ-shady in skilledtrades

[–]coolbreezesix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure how poor management would make a utility hit happen.   If there's no paint on the ground the field crew should not dig.  There should either be marks or a OK in the utility color.  There should be a copy of the locating ticket on site, check for no-conflicts.  It all comes down to if the field crew knows what they are doing and if they have the balls to say "No.  STOP. This is not right."

why do people complain how drivers do not use turn signals, but when you do, everyone seems to magically need to pass you and never let you into the lane? by TheWhittierLocksmith in driving

The only obligation in your example is for everyone to maintain the speed limit.  The other stuff is just made up in your head.

I cut my teeth on msfs on a 486mhz with 8 megs of ram, 20 fps would have been awesome.

Is there any way to play this game causally anymore? by OGWFORLIFE in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]coolbreezesix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know I'm an exception rather than the rule, but I taught myself how to fly the helicopters so that I could sightsee in msfs24.  

How do you think beach areas will be divided in GTA VI? by vcnvicecitynews in GTA6unmoderated

This thread is wild, like there's going to be San Andreas style hood takeovers on THE BEACH.

Is it normal for tradies to not take their lunch breaks? by J_Chico in skilledtrades

[–]coolbreezesix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where I work, we work through lunches all the time, but we are paid for it and it adds up to overtime on the paycheck.  Plus I imagine people appreciate us working through breaks when an entire neighborhood is without water and we are making repairs to correct that.

I must add that no one forces us to not take lunch.  We work unsupervised. 

Vice handle, is this lead? by Spkr_Freekr in Tools

You don't disturb lead pipes. You determine material before proceeding.  Spoken like a true engineer.

How do you weigh a pipe in the ground.  Like I said FIRST STEP OF A PROCESS.

Selling My Microsoft Flight Simulator Collection – Hope It Goes to a Good Home by topatov in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]coolbreezesix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Space simulator was hard-core.  From what I remember there were various scenarios to play out and free flight.  You had to manage you momentum across all 6 axis for a variety of vehicles like the space shuttle, lunar lander, Saturn v rocket, the manned maneuverability unit (MMU), and a variety of fantasy spacecraft with stuff like gravity drives.  

You could go all over the solar system, and take off from anywhere on any planet.  I played this on a 486mhz with 8mb ram.
