re: Private Sector vs state employment
Posted by Redlos on 4/16/24 at 9:49 pm
You can work on coastal projects in the private sector too…CPRA is on the smaller side of state agencies and not as bureaucratic as many other agencies. Its a good place to learn about coastal engineering as they still do actual design work in-house.
You can expect to make $10-15K more in the pri...

Took care of both my inlawws, FIL lived with us his last 9 years. He was a great man, tough to watch him go basically from just being tired as he was 94 and had no underlying health issues.
He (and me and the wife) took care of his wife as she had advanced dementia/alz for her last 8 years…now th...

I wouldn’t worry, it would have had synthetic which goes 12K or a year easily. Although not ideal if that’s original oil….I would NOT be worried.
But still call a dealer and see what they show by running the VIN....

re: What’s a respectable non-bro height lift/tire for a 4x4 truck
Posted by Redlos on 2/26/24 at 7:01 am
I have the Nitto RGs on my TRD Pro, the first set didn’t last very long, but I got slightly larger and stepped up from P to LT models based on Discount Tire suggestions, they claimed I’d get 2X the mileage and they are wearing much slower. This is prob moot in an F250, obviously mileage went down as...

re: It’s storming in NOLA and Turbine 4 just shut down
Posted by Redlos on 2/4/24 at 2:36 pm
I feel like they had a good chunk of funding setup, however bad state politics messed that up. The reality is that post Katrina the federal investment was made in the hurricane flood protection system ($15B) and no real focus was placed on the interior drainage power generation/feeder lines/pumps/dr...
re: It’s storming in NOLA and Turbine 4 just shut down
Posted by Redlos on 2/4/24 at 1:16 pm
So they have to build frequency converters (which are being built now) to take the 60Hz Entergy Substation feed and convert to 25Hz for the old pumps. The substation will be significantly more reliable than their current power feed from Entergy (think like a large chemical plant).
Ultimately they...
