2.3l engine, truck smaller than an average suv, drive like a grandma.

Except for the magnolia tree and vegetable garden cleary visible in the photo…

If you made an electric conversion and used an induction motor it could still be stick! Induction motors have a narrow range of useful rmps so the transmission is still needed!

Getting >30mpg out of a pickup ftw.

Mowing the lawn is the only hour of uninterrupted creativity I get in the week. Also my neighbour’s lawn is 50% dandelions.

Slavery is the ownership of a person as property, especially in regards to their labor.

Having 100% exclusive rights over the fruits of a person’s labor, so, a job.

Slavery typically involves compulsory work with the slave’s location of work and residence dictated by the party that holds them in bondage.

Ever applied for a mortgage?

So uhh, anyone building pyramids today?

Damnit, I’m boring af. Machines are named by their model for laptops/consumer devices and buy their CPU for home built stuff.

Except for Crimson-Binome.local 🏴‍☠️

If there were 2lb spiders that taste like lobster roaming around on land I would sure as fuck be out in the woods with a net every weekend.

Having just jumped over I might be bottom of the priority list for company communications.

Guess I’m a low-value client.

I might do so as well to avoid the next decade of shopping around.

I know there are other factors it just feels like the only people getting screwed are the little guys. In Canada the rates that third party ISPs pay and charge are dictated by the giant telcos. Our regulating body even allowed the telcos to raise prices to the point where reselling is no longer viable. Fucking the little guys again.

Nope, no other nerve issues that I know of.

I’m on month 2 of an eye twitch. Last time it was 4 months in my arm and before that 4 months in my other eye.

It’s one of my inappropriate set pieces. When I run into particularly uppity engineers who want to use 10 sensors and 5 motors to open a door, I give them the butthole monologue to point out that physical complexity != functionality.

sigh

In industry there is something called “multi-phase flow” where you have a pipe that contains a mix of two or more states of matter like steam and liquid water, water and trash, sand and air. Handling multi-phase flows can be a real pain because you need to separate them but you don’t always know how much of each phase is present and they may be very well mixed. In steam pipes, separators are used to remove any liquid water from the gas flow, in flows with solid components filters or screens can be used to allow fluids to pass but in all cases there are complex parts or consumables.

And so the butthole is an absolute marvel of engineering, with only a single moving part it can separate a multi-phase flow into it’s constituent parts regardless of it’s orientation in space (most of the time).

You guys got to work from home? I had to work on Christmas 2020.

I was really sour about the Mr Robot prank where they modified pages without informing the user. But weighing a prank gone wrong against the active goal of dicking over the internet I’ll take the well meaning pranksters.

My GF got around the Honda reliability problem when some jerkoff stole her CRV last week. Guy walked up, did some SDR magic, opened the door, started it up and drove away. Both keys were in the house :/

S-Tier security there, Honda.
