Yeahhhhhh, I used to recommend his channel to young engineers and techs because of how thorough he was at explaining the how and why of mechanisms. I don’t anymore which is a shame because he was knowledgeable.

The pikes peak international hillclimb is on the 23rd.

There is some weird difficulty scaling on EE with faster cpus iirc. I got it on gog last year and its significantly harder than I remembered it being.

The scooters and unicycles need cope cages.

Does the tv tuner and tv guide work? I tried a few alternatives a few years back and they were garbo. Wmc always just worked.

Windows media center alone is worth resurrecting win7 for.

I’m sorry for your loss.

The fast food chain Dairy Queen is different than those branded “DQ”. It is not a real Dairy Queen unless it is written out fully and does not use the DQ logo on the store. I will not elaborate further nor eat at DQ. There are still a few real stores in really small towns.

Looks like the Sea-Aggies have decided to secede.

Atlanta is mostly blue now so we should probably update the route.

Im a straight white male and I don’t particularly feel safe living in Texas. This state has become a shitshow.

Not just stat helio-stat

Patrolling the Mojave wasteland almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.

In Texas, your property tax is already somewhat two tiered. Your first home is taxed as a homestead and you get an exemption on part of the property tax. If you own a second, third, etc you have to pay the full amount and the annual increases are not capped. Im not 100% sure on the specifics as I don’t own more than 1 though.

I live in Texas, and as an American Citizen, I am asking to be rescued from this hostage situation. Please send help.

The boss from Saints Row

Yeah, I ugly cried for a good 30 minutes from the end of The Good Place. It was excellent but it hit me really hard.

We did formal typing classes in school starting from primary school up to middle school but that was not what made me a proficient typist. I got comfortable with a keyboard and more proper typing by actually doing it.

Some of that is on me for being a little shit in school, some of it is because the classes were shit. My point was that typing is a skill and there is more than one way to learn it and that a generation shouldn’t be judged from a snapshot at a relatively young age.

That said, a relatively large number of the younger engineers I work with ARE missing critical basic tech/mechanical/problem solving skills so I do recognize that there seems to be a generational difference in some areas. I didn’t get to work with a young engineer from a previous generation when they were a young engineer though so I can’t say that for sure.
