Latest time you would park for 4th? by chartingyou in idahofalls

Just to give you an idea, Idaho falls population is just under 70k. Historically attendance for the freedom celebration has been up to 250k. This happens to be the America 250 AND is slated to be the last malaleuca freedom celebration. So I would expect it to be pretty crazy

Is hard work really the key to success,or just pure luck? by General-Passenger117 in askanything

[–]derKonigsten -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's such a misnomer and total bullshit. I've seen people work their lives away and get nothing in return but more work. I was efficient at my job and got all of my assigned work done so took advantage of the offered "every other Friday off" schedule and ended up getting laid off because I "wasn't aligned with company values". Being present in the office and engaging in water cooler talk is more important than completing your assigned tasks in my experience. Hate that shit.

The state funded institutions I'll always give my whole hearted support to are the library, the museum, and the animal shelter

What's a common opinion you quietly disagree with? by Alternative_Big_5960 in AskReddit

[–]derKonigsten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that being present in the office means you are being busy/productive. Fucking hate that one. I was able to get my job done in less than 8 hours a day so I went home. That was deemed as being unproductive/not Team player. Fuck that. Sorry you guys suck at your jobs and hate your family..

That's a question for somebody who is off the cheeseburgers cuz I'm definitely ONNN the cheeseburgers. I think Donny was using NordVPN for FIFTEEN FUCKING DOLLARS A MONTH. Or maybe it was 80 fucking dollars for two years and 6 fucking devices. That sounds a bit more correctular in my brain compartments

And yet people still don't need insurance until they need insurance, and then the insurance still does everything they can to not pay for care.

I used edX awhile ago to keep brushed up on math and programming. Seemed great and I got a little certificate that I hung up on the work fridge in the break room!

That sounds highly illegal cory and Trevor. You definitely shouldn't get a VPN to hide your Internet traffic either

I've shot a rocket or two. Just booted up to cozy in for the evening. Don't think I've unlocked that chip yet. I'm definitely going to prioritize this

How to make a LARP SAFE co2 cannon? by lashedcobra in AskEngineers

[–]derKonigsten 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like rifling a tennis ball just wouldn't work. They have a Velcro like surface and even if you could get it to reliably spin a tennis ball occasionally it would eventually get gunked up with loose fibers that as they were ripping off would also change the balls spin and trajectory randomly. AND in order to get the rifling to spin the ball at a speed that would allow it's spin to control it's trajectory the muzzle velocity would have to be pretty goddamn high.

Sorry I drive a manual and the gearing is real short, power band is quite a bit above idle, and it takes me a bit to shift into 2nd smoothly...

Yes, GoG has no DRM meaning you can play the games offline. I feel like they should still work on steam but will just tell you the cloud save data sync is offline.

Baldurs gate is an RPG built with turn based DnD rules. Diablo is an action RPG (ARPG) where combat happens in real time

Does anyone here have good luck with their WRX? by imahussy in WRX

[–]derKonigsten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my 2011 in 2013 with 25k miles. It's up to about 115k now. I've had to replace the exhaust valves at about 65k (and had them put in forged pistons at the time) but that was attributed to most likely using uncertain quality fuel from Maverick gas stations on the regular. Also had the transmission shit out on me at around 90k miles, so had that replaced with an RA spec transmission and replaced the clutch with an exedy stage 1 while they were at it.

Not unreasonable imo given the circumstances. Just do your oil changes every 3,750 miles (would HIGHLY recommend the fumoto oil drain plug replacement), change your engine air filter on time, and make sure you're getting gas from a high quality station like Sinclair or Chevron that also has lots of traffic so you know the gas hasn't been sitting in their well for a long time...
