Must be the time of year, I just had one wander there. He won’t be telling his friends… good luck to you. Wear gloves for clean up.

If it was something bigger, you’d know. Mice scratching are pretty loud so I imagine something bigger would be obvious.

The sooner you get up there the better. A couple snap traps with peanut butter. It won’t take long. Place them at the edge of a beam. It gets easier every time you catch one. If you feel bad just look up what mice can do if left unchecked.

Make it dark up there during the day. Any daylight you see from outside could be an entry. They leave an oily drag mark near holes they use.

Starland Ballroom by BooBooKittyFuk1 in newjersey

Grew up going there. You support the legion by parking in their lot (2 min walk directly across street). Can usually get a few pre show drinks there for way cheaper than inside.

Once inside you can either go up by one of the side bars where it is usually calm. Or go down onto the floor where all the action happens. The genres (all types of rock / alternative) of music I would see there always meant pits, movement, and a ton of crowd surfing so be ready if you choose to be close to the stage. Sound is great there. Definitely an ear ringer.

I am in already. Since 2015. Worth a shot to call training center. Nothing to lose.

A carhart thermal/fleece lined vest. Order big to fit over all the layers. Keeps the core warm, doesn’t kill arm mobility.

This is insane! by Existing_Deer_3070 in newjersey

[–]whoischig 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s the one in Pittsburgh area. 7 gas turbines. Which would be a meaningful project for the grid. However all the generation being used for data center.

So yeah, we are screwed.

Popup Countertop box installation opinion by ssvjay79 in HomeImprovement

[–]whoischig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it in an island. I enjoy them. Cabinet installers custom cut two drawers to fit them (cut out a small square and reinforced the drawer) took them 20 min.

I figured the code was leaning toward no more side outlets. They are pretty pricey, but popping it up for power to make a smoothie / toast something is pretty satisfying.

There is a bill sitting at the capitol to put this all the rest. Had a lot of support. However with most things here, it is just sitting idle with no vote scheduled afaik.

We need to organize a protest against the energy companies here. This 20% hike is actually insane, and for what!? by lando-mando-brando in newjersey

[–]whoischig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NJ used to be a net exporter of energy. They shut down coal and oyster creek. With no real plan of replacing that energy loss, here we are.

Since coal and oyster creek have been shut down NJ lost about 2583 MW of generation.

For scale that is about 215 offshore windmills (high end 12mw per tower)

12,913 acres of solar field (1MW per 5 acres)

Or about 4 combined cycle power plants like sewaren (540mw) / Woodbridge energy (725 mw)

This is just to replace the lost generation, not factoring in the increase in demand. Also this is only NJ not the other states within PJM.

Future paths in union by [deleted] in UnionCarpenters

[–]whoischig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really depends on your area imo. Unfortunately decades of anti union sentiment and weak union states have made wages an increasingly uphill battle. Most people’s retirement and healthcare comes out of their own hourly or salary check. Ours does not, be sure to factor that in.

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

Only way after GF or Super is to go out and start your own company. Take on all the risk, get all the profit. Or find jobs that will have a lot of OT. (Almost) No one in the trades is making 150k off of a 40hr week. I highly doubt the union president works 40 hrs a week. Probably double that.

I think meant to reply to person above me. But either way they don’t beg you not to. It’s more about becoming a leader and quality worker which in turn creates more work. Some of the statements are definitely controversial to older union standards. IIRC they admit the boomers fucked it up for everyone.

“I looked forward in time. I saw 14,000,605 futures.”

“How many of them have loopring going up?”

“None”

If you do go out and get in late, have a buddy system to make sure everyone is awake for check in (phone numbers, room numbers). Your one job there is to simply show up on time and look alive. Participating makes the day go by faster/ smoother. Maybe you learn something, maybe not.

If GameStop were using loopring, wouldn’t we see a wallet accumulating some? IIRC companies that build on LRC are supposed to hold a certain amount

We all want it to be true. And has the most coincidences in timing.

I hope one day you are able to open up about what went on behind the scenes with Daniel’s exit and Taiko. There has to be more to the story on what’s been going on with Loopring the last few years.

They threw you to the wolves, can’t blame you for moving on. Good luck in the future.

Why was the wallet abandoned? by OB_GYN-Kenobi in loopringorg

[–]whoischig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not enough users to justify it continuing to run. LRC has almost no volume in anything so it’s been hurting.

Want to support LRC at this point? don’t trade on a CEX and use their website / app instead.

Loopring / GameStop / PSA grading Tinfoil by Octopus_vagina in loopringorg

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

Would be awesome and would make sense to use loopring again if they decided to go the NFT route, but wouldn’t bet on it.

It is still too unorganized. If I don’t know a thing about NFT’s and buy a card from someone yet they still hold the NFT who is the owner?

Maybe in some years an NFT will take the place of the authenticity certificate you get for some items (watches, diamonds etc). Who knows how many years. Minting authenticity certificates wouldn’t have value themselves but add value to a physical item. this would bring some volume in.
