    Anyone ever serve on a submarine?

    Give me a year and I can tell you. I've really only heard good things though and its not like I really see the sun anyway.

    Son wants to join the Marines

    It's based on job from what I've seen. If you want a specific job, it may be a long wait due to the follow on schools being backed up. If he wants to be a grunt of a wrench turner, there is no better place than the Marines and will at the very least give him some time to figure out what he...

    ATOT mechanical engineers

    I worked at a company called Enterasys. The whole ME dept was 4 full timers and a few co-ops and part-time contractors. Like 8 people total from a company of 600ish. There isn't a huge number of positions available, but from what I've seen, there also not highly competitive. Something like Apple...

    ATOT mechanical engineers

    I'll have my BS in May, so I've only done co-ops, but in a wide range of fields. I originally wanted to be in the aerospace or defense field, but I couldn't get any co-ops in that area. I took what I could get. Industries: IT: Worked with enterprise level routers and switches. Chassis design...

    New Budgetish build

    Bought everything but the processor from newegg. The 870 is $60 more than the 760. Will it provide a noticeable upgrade, or will it be just a benchmark thing? Is it worth that price?

    New Budgetish build

    So after six years I guess its time for a new desktop. I've done a bit a research, I think I have a decent set picked out. I don't really game much, mostly older games when I do, CS:S Battlefield 2. I'm really looking for something that can do well encoding video. I'm looking to put my rather...

    Quick question for any electricians

    I'm in the US. The wires running into it are two hot and one neutral. The end fells like a solid piece of metal, though I can't see it. The wires aren't normally exposed like that, I was seeing where I was getting power to. It connects to the recessed ceiling lights in my finished attic, so I...

    Quick question for any electricians

    From what I can tell, its just like a black cylinder with no outlet. The box goes to three ceiling lights. I've never seen it, and I've asked a few people who have no idea what it is.

    Can anyone tell me what the black thing of the right side is on this electrical box? http://imgur.com/VvgoW.jpg Thanks

    Mechanical Engineering degree

    This sound like what you are looking for. Engineering is about problem solving. A Industrial designer, from what I understand, would create things like concept cars, and do most of the styling. Apple has a bunch of them to make sure there products look good. They work closely with MEs, so there...

    mechanical engineers

    I'm still an undergrad ME, but as a ME you can work in almost any field. I've done an internship with a networking company, doing design work for switches and routers. That involves heat transfer, and basic sheet metal design. Another I did working on a petrochemical refinery, much the...

    Playing the lottery depresses me

    your chances of winning are exactly the same. You will just split the jackpot if multiple people win. Nevermind I re-read the OP. It doesn't hurt anybody to throw a couple bucks at it. The money not won does go back into the local communities. Thats still not justification to me to play, but...

    Question about college social life, frats, and stuff

    I can't offer any advice on the frats, but 3. Can you just go to both groups for a couple weeks and then decide which you like better? Don't automatically write some one off because you didn't get along before. I've seen people dramatically change with just a few weeks of college. Try to...

    PET PEEVE #1: Friend moving to a city and adopting all of its winning sports teams

    Given the circumstances I would say he's allowed to root for the Boston teams, but certain rules need to be followed. Bill Simmons covered this recently in a podcast, though I can't remember with who. He should never reference we in relation to a Boston team. Really no one but the team itself...

    Ten reasons why America?s health care system is in better condition than you might suppose.

    From the BBC It looks like cancer survival rates are what the article was referring too, I'd rather spend a little extra and have a much better survival chance. The article acknowledges that more spending gives better, and earlier access to tests. This study only covers cancer, so it...

    Could you hit a Home Run?

    Pitching machines suck for comparing distance. From what I remember the balls are heavier and softer. Back in high school, we practiced on a field with fences that were a like 315' down the line and 375' in center. I could hit the fence a few times, but had to stop playing after sophomore...

    iTouch Second Gen?

    The third gen is rumored to be out in September and is said to include a microphone and videocamera. I've never owned an apple product before, but I was looking for a better control system for my htpc. After seeing a lot of friends with them, I kind of wanted one, then I found an app that did...

    Building a deck...concrete posts into ground or set conrete footers?

    Our deck is was just done with footings, 4 feet down with a bracket bolted to the concrete and nailed to the post. Our supports are only 2 feet though. The frame was done 15 years ago and is still holding strong. We just added a new section and redid the flooring/railings. Edit: I typed before...

    If Cy Young were transported to our time

    As I said, its impossible to compare eras so we'll never know for sure. You can talk about the dead ball era and rule changes, but if he was able in innovate as much as he did then, whose to say he wouldn't be able to do that today. In the OP's situation, I would assume Cy would have access to...

    would you mind explaining that please? Like I said there is no real way to compare eras, though I'd love to see someone build a model to do such a thing.

    If Cy Young were transported to our time

    Not since High School, though that wasn't to long ago, but I don't see what that has to do with this. Cy young was one of the best of his generation, using the stats of on of the best of ours I made a guess for wins. Granted I didn't play professional baseball in the early 1900's and I don't...

    If Cy Young were transported to our time

    Based on his .618 win percentage and an average of 30 decisions a year he would have about 400 wins. The .618 is similar to Greg Maddux. Cy Young only averaged 32 starts a season which is less than Maddux(34). The big difference, is not the rotation, but the use of relief pitching. Cy Young...

    Abortion provider shot to death at church

    If someone said the same thing about a Muslim group, or PETA or what ever, I'm sure a large amount of liberals would go nuts about stereotyping. You could make the same argument about a huge range of careers, engineers, mechanics, drug runners all may carry huge range of knowledge, but to use...

    Anyone use AutoCAD and AutoDesk Inventor?

    But AutoCad/Inventor have free student versions on there website. Though you aren't supposed to use the student version for profit, its a great way to learn. Once you learn one 3D program they are all basically the same. I have used 5(?) different ones its like switching from MS Office to...

    Boston ATOTers: Need suggestions on where to rent

    Do they have any commute requirements? I would stay away from Arlington then. It does have some restaurants, but that's it. It sounds like Newton may fit very well. They have a fairly large center, that I think is much more urban, than the surrounding towns and you can grab the green line there...

    Boston ATOTers: Need suggestions on where to rent

    I live in Arlington, it's filled with old people, and there's really not much it terms of entrainment within walking distance. It does however have quick access to Cambridge/Boston by the T. What do you mean by younger? Like young families or early 20s people? Cambridge, and even parts of...

    So what is a good jump off point

    If you don't need all kinds of built in storage, or a TV tuner, you can get a Dell Studio Hybrid from the outlet for around $300. It will come with Vista on it, but if you run some cover like Boxee or just XBMC, there won't really be a huge difference. I haven't looked close enough to know what...

    Hyundai Elantra -- if you own one or know someone who owned one -- how do you like it?

    I have an 04 and haven't had any issues with it at all. It only has 40,000 miles on it, but is still in terrific shape. It's certainly not as nice as a new Honda or Toyota, but but they can be had quite a bit cheaper. But the its rides decently and feels safe even at highway speeds. (can't say...

    Do you signal when in the left turn only lane?

    I asked my sister and brother in law, both are police officers and they said that at least in Mass you don't have to when you are in a marked turn only lane. They may be wrong, but were in Mass so its not like anyone actually uses the turn signal anyway.

    Does anyone have a car stereo that does HD radio?

    I almost never have AM on, but a few AM stations do come in digital. My radio says it is getting a few stations in HD, but I don't listen to them enough to notice a difference between regular and HD.

    Working in the courtesy booth at a grocery store for four years, I've seen people blow ridiculous money. We had a family of regulars that I figure spent about a thousand a week at our store, sometimes they'll basically by an entire book which is $1500 and I know they played a lot elsewhere. The...

    Damn, how many people out there are going to get this reference

    I think every guy makes this mistake the first time they hear about it, but I don't think I've ever met anyone who didn't like it. for a span of like 6 months in high school I would watch it literally once a week. I could recite it almost word for word.

    Jay Leno spot on a parts printer

    They've done interconnecting parts for years. Freshman year of high school(8 years ago) my teacher had ball bearing made on one of these machines that would actually spin. It was cool at the time. At my last job we got one that uses a powder and glue to make parts. Its the same one used by...
