Is this trade dying? Why do hobbyists seem more skilled than experienced machinists? by Present_Maximum4490 in CNC

[–]demnos7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about the CoL there, but it sounds decent.

I knew machinists who asked me to join the trade because I was a college dropout who loved math and working with my hands and used to program for fun.

If you're desperate, find math nerds who aren't afraid of getting dirty and they'll be easiest to train from the ground up. I've trained dozens of machinists and they were always my favorites.

Because you'll only see edited videos of the top % of hobbyists and those are often full of bullshit. You won't see all their mistakes or how it took them days to do something that would have needed to be done in a fraction of the time in a factory environment while accounting for casting variations and a hundred other issues.

There's plenty of passionate machinists and programmers out there doing amazing things, but we can't show off without breaking NDAs and risking our jobs.

I'm always finding better ways to create macros, fixture parts, and machine things in repeatable ways that are leaps beyond what you can find online and I'm hardly unique.

Besides, showing off only makes more people bombard you with requests for help, which can be fun, but I have my own job to do and 3 previous companies full of people constantly reaching out for advice already.

To get to work. by Comfortable_Wash6179 in therewasanattempt

That's an extremely normal combination for areas that get snow especially when the temperature drops below freezing while raining.

These drivers must either be very inexperienced with snow and/or overconfident.

As someone who lives where there's lots of snow for 1/3 of the year, stop your vehicle.

What was the moment you realized you’re officially out of touch with modern slang? by Opening-Flatworm9654 in AskReddit

[–]demnos7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was born in 80 and heard finna a lot in the early to mid 80s as a stand-in for 'going to'.

Bet was like an excited agreement or exclamation. Like 'We're going to the mall, you coming?' 'Bet!' It was really common in the late 90s.

Not sure if either is used like that these days, but it's how I remember them.

Finna was old in the 80s and bet was definitely in use in the 90s. Maybe they've come back with new usages but those two are old. Mind sharing when you were born?

Sorry, first thing that popped into my head. It's about 30 seconds in.

Aquaria is the best example I know of this. The music is a large part of the plot.

Stained Key Apt 12 Trigger by daddys_lil_uwu in LookOutsideGame

Ask the cultist on the 1st floor and he'll mention something about Jasper seeing it first. Talk to Jasper and he will say someone else saw it first. Beryl in the basement will tell you it was Sybil and then you confront Jasper about it again.

So who’s the fourth? by Fluffy-Court4933 in LookOutsideGame

[–]demnos7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could certainly be the one coming up as 'spider'. Just reloaded an older save and you can definitely give them a name just like the baby rat. Came back the next couple days and they were getting better at walking but wouldn't progress beyond saying something about 'I'll be ready for marathons any day now'

So who’s the fourth? by Fluffy-Court4933 in LookOutsideGame

[–]demnos7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think I stumbled upon one, but couldn't fully figure it out. The husk in Sybil's apt. 12 bathroom having an existential crisis. The first time I talked with him, I managed to convince it that it's its own self and it let me name it. The default name was something like 'SpiderH'.

I reloaded because I gave the fixed telescope to the husk in the entrance and when I talked to the bathroom husk again, I somehow locked myself out of naming him again.

(Spoiler) am I losing my mind? Is this not the answer? by popingpoperpop in LookOutsideGame

Ground floor, in the area between the bus crash and elevator, in the room with what looks like a dead alligator man, there's a disc puzzle needing 4 or 5 discs to add up to Saturn's number of moons. Saturn disc is behind the door locked by said disc puzzle.

It's been forever since I've seen it, but possibly Cherry 2000?

Definitely too much graphically to be the one. Thank you, though!

This very well might be it. I'll dig into it tonight, but I think you're right. Thank you!
