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.

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...

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...

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)...

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).

Fixed.

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

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.

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/

I assume that picture is their entire viewership. Indians don't give two shits about any sport but cricket and soccer. I can't believe they've run a loser like that for 18 years. Also, I haven't seen anything yet, so, hopefully the Swahili broadcast is still a go.

Gloves and insulated tools at least? Or did you like to play Operation?

The pockets are to hoard the unremarkable rocks and general garbage they find in their adventures. Then, they get released in the washing machine or dryer when my wife forgets to check the pockets. It's the circle of life. Oblig: GIS for crushed asphalt

I expect the Bears to regress big time. They won't have a last place schedule this year and, while they've tried to address it, will be going into the season down two pretty big contributors to their offensive line (one maybe coming back mid-season if lucky). As much as it pains me to say it...

Or they could have just kept Darnold and beefed up their offensive line. Everyone blamed their last two losses that season on Darnold, but that line was letting through pressure on just about every play. McCarthy was clearly the wrong choice, but they still had an actual band-aid for that...
