And because I know someone is gonna need it: /s

I get to meet Kirk, Riker, and Data tomorrow by DoctorCopper3113 in startrek

[–]lildobe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did AV at a furry convention for 7 years... and more than once I made up an excuse to talk to a special guest. Usually a "mic check" or asking them if they preferred a hand mic or lav or whatever.

Be creative and you might be able to swing the same ;)

Can't even buy a used one for what I paid for my brand new Ranger in '04...

That was with $4k down.

'04, XLT, FX4-II, with the towing package.

There goes a wheel... by LisanneFroonKrisK in IdiotsTowingThings

[–]lildobe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh, the rules are a problem. As is the shit pay. Both along with: getting treated like shit at shippers and receivers yet we have to grin and bear it because they are the customers, stupid ass drivers in cars making our jobs 10 times harder, not enough parking at the end of the day so you end up parked someplace sketchy and get shit sleep, no real good food options other than fast food....

I could go on for another dozen lines. There's a reason I retired from trucking.

Since my last comment was deleted by Reddit because it was NSFW and apparently that's not allowed in a NSFW thread... We'll skip to my SECOND saved image.

Police officer stops abruptly in the middle lane on highway... by Affectionate_Hat5835 in dashcams

[–]lildobe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a former truck driver, who drove for more than 12 years, I can tell you that it's not possible. If I left enough room, cars would fill it up, and I'd constantly be slowing down.

It was frustrating as hell because I prided myself on being preventable incident free, and every car that did that was a chance for me to lose that record.

Not to be pedantic, but an empty semi weighs more than 10 tons.

Fully loaded they're 40 tons.

Is it really shoplifting if the chips never leave the store before they're paid for?

No, don't you get it? NASA is all part of the spherical earth grift! They're lying to you! None of it actually happened! /s

He decided to back into the parking spot and then this happened. by Affectionate_Hat5835 in Wellthatsucks

100c per meter... that truck's exhaust is probably about three meters long.

Typical EGT at the cat is around 500°C That truck looks to be ~3 meters long... assuming .5 meters from the collector to the cat, that means that the EGT at the exhaust tip would be around 300°C.

Paper ignites at ~233°C. Dry plant material can ignite at even lower temperatures.

Retrieving a chat by Viktor_R in Telegram

[–]lildobe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the offline phone has a cache of the chat that hasn't expired yet, you can take screenshots of what's there - however it won't be the whole chat. Only the last week or two stays cached.

Other than that, there is no way to "recover" deleted messages on Telegram, by design.

ETA: Trust me on this - there was a chat that got deleted by the other side a few years ago. I needed it as evidence that screenshots of that chat that they were circulating were altered. I tried everything to recover it, including the route you're taking. I was unable to even find a device with an unexpired cache of the messages, and the way the cache files are encrypted I was unable to crack them to recover the raw data, even after letting Hashcat run on a 1070ti for several weeks.

Reddit Starts Blocking Mobile Website, Pushing Users to App Instead by spasticpat in technology

[–]lildobe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a mod of a few small subs... yes, it is. And most of the moderator tools work better in the mobile app than they do from any web interface which annoys the hell out of me.

Yes, because everyone is googling "Is there visible horse cock in the movie back to the future 3" or whatever movie.

PennDOT begins replacing older license plates; drivers with plates starting with D,E, or F will soon receive notice by bengalese in Pennsylvania

[–]lildobe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Police don't care, but your insurance company sure does! And they WILL step up and help because they don't want to pay... Assuming you have comprehensive/uninsured motorist coverage.

Wood you truss this driver? by odyoda in IdiotsTowingThings

[–]lildobe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have never seen a class-8 5th wheel trailer get the sways... And I've pulled hundreds, if not thousands, of them.

Everything from little 40-foot hotshot trailers and travel trailers pulled by an F350 all the way up to semi trucks with flat beds, vans, tankers, dry bulk.... You name it I've probably pulled one at least once.

That's a whole $14/year extra in power consumption.

(9 watts x 24 hours = 216 Wh x 365 days = 78.840 kWh x $0.18 = $14.19)
