    The Fast Food Thread

    Maybe that quality push hasn't made it to my local franchise. I've been twice in the last month out of convenience and both Whoppers I had were as mediocre as ever. The first time I had some Jalepeno Whopper thing - don't bother. Second time I had a traditional Whopper - same as it ever was. The...

    How do we know he wasn't just trying to help Tri-state Tori buy an Xbox?

    Pffft I'm not even that old and I didn't start with PS/2. AT keyboard and RS232 mice were more my era. I'm sure some geezer on here can easily top that.

    Smartphones

    I've got to say, thank you @Kharzette . I was strongly considering getting a Pine Phone due to all the privacy features - being able to air gap all the radios and sensors is huge. This honestly sounds like an absolutely miserable experience. I hope at some point they can produce something ready...

    Anyone work in engineering? How’s it going?

    Not sure if it's still the case, but oilfield services companies (Schlumberger, Halliburton, Baker Hughes, etc) were always looking for new engineers they could burn out back when I graduated. No experience required. The job interview was literally just sleep depriving a large group of people...

    Anyone work in engineering? How’s it going?

    Should be a great time to get into engineering, there is an incredible amount of change happening. Unfortunately, too many asshole bean counters are rising to the top again. They see engineering as a cost and a commodity, not a skilled occupation that generates value. My company (automotive)...

    2025-2026 NFL Season Thread - God hates the Chargers

    Daniels recently got pissy and told LSU they could no longer use his name/image/likeness because they let a recruit use his number (5).

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I love Facebook Marketplace “It's been in a little fender bender... " Pictures show front bumper caved in to the radiator. “Interior is super clean" Seats are covered in stains, carpets match the color of the dirt the car had been sitting in. Whoops, my thumb is in this photo. Oh...

    I don't get the thrill of owning this. You get to spend all your time saying "no, this is real, it's not a replica" and people thinking "yeah, sure asshole". Oblig: Very convincing replica

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Seems like a lot of money for an electric go kart. I mean, it's impressive the details they put into that, but I'd have just as much fun with the bare chassis.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    That's the Mario Kart tours. They're mostly in Akihabara, but I think they have some in other districts as well. I've had friends do them and had a blast. I always forget to get an international driver's license before going to Japan, so, I've never done it. https://kart.st/en/
