I know youre joking but I used to work for an ITAR electronics manucacturer that also made a lot of parts for the ag industry. So we literally did make tractor parts that were mostly ITAR complaint. All we would have really needed to do to make those parts completely compliant is switch up some of the suppliers used for those products.
There are jobs that pay decently with only a highschool diploma. They're called trades. You just start off low and work your way up. As long as you have some basic mechanical knowledge (which you can easily get from a factory job) they will teach you the rest on the job. Hell, I've only been a refrigeration tech for a bit over 2 years now and while I'm not super wealthy I do make enough that I was able to buy a cheap house in my area on my own.
The idea that you can't make money without a college degree needs to die. That idea was always beat into my head all through highschool. But dropping out of college is the best decision I ever made. The world needs plumbers, electricians, HVAC techs, and mechanics just as much as it needs programmers and accountants. Right now theres even a shortage of trades people because for the past few decades schools haven't even been presenting it as an option and the existing workforce is retiring.
If you're looking for an actual "all-purpose" lubricant try tri-flow lubricant. It's technically a chain lube but it works pretty well for most light duty household stuff and it sticks around a whole lot longer than WD40. Generally wherever you think WD40 is a good idea that stuff will usually work better. The only downside is that it smells strongly like bananas for a while after you spray it on because it contains banana oil. It's not a bad smell but it's definitely noticable.
WD40 is a bit of a catch all. It kind of does a lot of things but it isn't great at any of them. It's kind of a penetrating oil for busting things loose but it doesn't work nearly as well as an actual penetrating oil. It's kind of a part cleaner but it won't work nearly as well as an actual part cleaner. It's kind of a lubricant but it won't work nearly as well as an actual lubricant. If you had one can of stuff to bring with you to a deserted island then WD40 would be the best thing to bring. But other than that there is always a better dedicated spray for whatever you want to do.
I frequently need to clean my ears due to wax issues and I have used q-tips to do so for my entire life. I have only ever been told that my ears are immaculate at anual exams so this definitely depends on the person.
I'm willing to bet that most employers that only require a highschool diploma don't actually bother to check what highschool it's from or that the person actually graduated.
Thank you. It wasn't much I did though. I just spun the wheel of pharmacology a few times and finally got it to land on the right med. The only reason it got so bad this time was because it took a few more spins than usual to hit the right one. So far that was the unluckiest I've ever been in that regard.
Well, I spend the first half of the year with depression so bad I rarely left my bed and basically didn't work for 6 months straight. I've spent the second half of the year finally on working depression meds again and spending every spare cent on mortgage repayments so I can keep my house. Those should be finishing up early next year so next year is going to be my year because if anything this has taught me how to survive on very little money so I will feel positively rich compared to before.
So this year was a bust but I'm going to get so much shit done next year. I'm thinking my house (which currently looks like a crackhouse) is due for a whole lot of remoddling next year.
If the car is old and rusty enough that's not entirely wrong. My dad has a truck right now that he's just driving until the next major breakdown; after that it's going to the glue factory getting sold off as scrap.
That's fair. But even so, as long as you have brakes then you can always stop. As long as you have brakes and steering you can always stop fairly safely. I already said a sudden brake failure could be dangerous. I can't think of any way you suddenly completely lose steering. There are plenty of failures that make steering way harder but I've seen a vehicle completely dragging a dead front tire sideways (hit a deer and broke something major, I was only a witness so I don't know what) still have enough steering ability to safely pull over. I guess your steering wheel could fall off but I've never heard of that happening without someone tampering with it.
Same. I checked out of the series back when they started enforcing U-Play use. I can't understand why anyone would buy any of their games. Ubisoft went mask off a long time ago.
Thank you for the actual explanation. That actually makes sense in a very technically correct way. Hopefully they can at least fast track his naturalization.
