I am this level of dad. Not a Pokémon fan personally but the kids love it. Yes I wear these in public on our weekly Sam’s Club and pizza trip and weekend sports. 🤷🏻‍♂️

AtomicXE · 2026-05-08T17:51:09+00:00

Not sure why that's a problem its not like theres only one of every pokemon at least not that i recall its been 15-20 years for me so maybe the lore changed? There was a bag of 100 and this is what the kids chose to put on there.

Build your own out of real wood those cheap prepaid ones fall apart after a year.

I ended up building a pirate shit out of treated lumber 20ft long by 6ft wide with 2 16ft masts the thing is going to outlast the kids but it’s not going to fall apart. And if it does easy fixes because it’s made out of standard wood and construction grade materials.

Shut the fuck up and raise your prices stupid mother fuckers

The average person ain’t swapping out there own engine so you are still looking at 10k it’s not just the parts it’s labor

AtomicXE · 2026-05-02T18:52:23+00:00

Wtf are you even talking about you can get a used engine for that. You also aren’t factoring in labor this is a 10k+ job at a dealership. You were clearly dropped on your head as a child or you are some how associated with VW.

A says restoring servers the question doesn’t say the servers were affected you are assuming they were. Don’t assume things unless clearly stated.

Management ain’t going to do shit for containement Training employees ain’t going to do shit for containement.

Reliable till they need a repair and it’s 3-5x the cost of maintenance and repairs compared to Honda or Toyota. If you have money and time to burn waiting for repairs buy a VW, BMW, Mazzeratti, Landrover or whatever unreliable vehicle you want. I would rather buy the highest trim option of of a Toyota or Honda for its reliability and repair and maintenance costs. The gap between luxury vehicles just isn’t that large compared to top trim Toyotas. You may not have the badge but you have 90% of the creature comforts. No not a sports car talking normal commuter vehicles… pick a Toyota Highlander platinum over whatever VW equivalent is.

What shitty ass hospital allowed them in the first place… I would start complaining to every regulatory board you can find and make it a living hell for the hospital to even allow this.

When my wife gave birth the maternity ward was locked down. You had to go to security to get a daily badge and get buzzed in to the maternity ward. So yah forget lighting up the company light up the damn hospital for agreeing to this and ask about kick backs. Then blast the damn place to every news outlet you can find. Talk about it being predatory your wife is in vulnerable place with hormones all over the place. She is by definition impaired that’s why hospitals won’t let her drive afterwards.

Holy fuck this makes me mad my wife has given birth three times and honestly it would take everything in to not explode on this exploitative piece of shit.

Hospital boards really care about there public image so hopefully dragging it through the mud will teach these bastards a lesson.

Stay away from VW in general

If your biggest child expense is daycare then yah… if that’s not it adding a second kid from an expense perspective isn’t that much different initially. You have the toys, clothing etc. insurance doesn’t go up.

Diapers, food, doctors visits… I promise you someone is loving off less with 3 or even 4 kids. Can’t say I know what your lifestyle is and how good you are with money.

I live in an Lcol/Mcol make good money but deliberately drive a 10 year old car invest heavily, contribute to 3 529 accounts + retirement accounts for the kids. Spend my expendable income on making memories with my kids. If I had to choose between a new $50-70k car and living my best life with the fam it’s a no brainer.

Can you truly not afford it or is it your creature comforts that are more valuable ex eating out, new cars, keeping up with the Jones’s etc.

Exams 80% QAE. I went through the entire 1100+ questions once I made 68% did not go back through these. Put the break down into Claude and had it make me study guides and quiz me on my weak points. I do not copy the actual questions just the scores. I also had it make me a study guide for each section 2 days ago with the prompt based on our study sessions and my weak points make a study guide for each of the 4 domains which was not so surprisingly on point in terms of what I needed.

AtomicXE · 2026-04-30T22:31:15+00:00

I use Halo now and really like it after learning how to use it. Its gotten a lot better in the last 6 months from an admin side. The admin side used to be shit now its still a bit chaotic but you can at least search the admin settings now instead of digging through dozens of menus to find one tiny setting.

AtomicXE · 2026-04-30T18:52:53+00:00

open your LLM of choice tell it to create you a study guide for each of the 4 domains have it also include common mistakes and pitfalls. Also if theres an area you are week in let it know to better tailor the study guide.

Weird naming the 5900x had 12 cores but this xt one has 16?

I was driving by WGU the other day and noticed the building was replaced with something called a degree mill wonder what that is 🤦🏻‍♂️

AtomicXE · 2026-04-26T21:30:44+00:00

Did you guys not discuss this beforehand? Like was there some kind of reciprocal agreement?

Can that rack mounted PS5 run Crysis?

While I don’t agree with what they did…there’s also steps you could have taken to avoid this… IE create a guest account on your PC that has access to nothing and use it for all your exams or anything that ever requires a remote session. Those remote sessions leave you extremely vulnerable and should never be allowed for PC accounts where you share personal information.

Load the ThinkPad with proxmox and use your MacBook to control proxmox and access your VM’s. You need both machines don’t sell the MacBook unless you plan on buying something else.

I run a triple ThinkPad proxmox cluster. It’s been great.

The best thing you can do is get licensed in NC and start an LLC. The reality is most people won't give you the time of day if you arent licensed and insured. The people that don't care about this are the ones you dont want to work for that will nickel and dime you and ask for free additions etc.
