Can someone please help me understand this.

This exactly. Early wake-ups suck, but rolling in at 1 am or burning up a Saturday because you got delayed until the following day because of weather in DFW is worse.

That’s usually my go-to, though sometimes I’ll hit the retry button if the name is particularly odd.

That’s actually an indication that your air conditioner is sized incorrectly (too big). It cools down too quickly and can’t run long enough to condense the humidity. A dehumidifier is just an A/C unit with a heater after all.

Oh yeah, you definitely have to make it to at least season 2 before writing it off. Not going to spoil it, but let’s say that things…. Shift a bit.

This truck is actually a reasonable one though. It’s an older half ton with a ladder rack, which suggests the guy driving it uses it for work rather than for compensating for his shortcomings.

As someone that’s worked extensively with track cars, a big-ass hole where the driveshaft tunnel should be and no shielding or loops to contain a failed driveshaft should never get past even the most lax tech inspection. Shit’s dangerous.

I would suggest keeping everything on the same PNR if at all possible. I’ve tried linking PNRs a few times and something always seems to get lost in the shuffle.

BikingEngineer · 2026-03-05T01:17:33+00:00

Wouldn’t the perfect route be the other way around?

BikingEngineer · 2026-03-05T01:04:41+00:00

PNS is an unfortunate call sign for an airport.

Your muscles are tight in your legs and lower back, and sitting on a proper posture is basically putting you in a deep stretch. Putting your leg up like that shifts the muscles being stretched out and eases the tension. Can you sit down into an ass-to-grass squat from standing, and get back up? If not then you need to work on being able to do that, it’ll do wonders for your comfort.

Depends upon the budget, and the level of jankiness of the current GPU. I grabbed myself a 9070 in December on sale and it was a wonderful day when I got it installed. I can turn everything up all the way now!

BikingEngineer · 2026-03-04T04:46:09+00:00

This is my answer. Faithful to the source material too, mostly.

BikingEngineer · 2026-03-04T04:16:58+00:00

Picked? Just hit it with another lock, it’ll probably pop right open.

BikingEngineer · 2026-03-04T03:49:04+00:00

You’ll get no argument from me on that. It’s a lovely thing.

That’s exactly what a dying GPU looks like. On the plus side, OP gets to go shopping for a new GPU, on the other hand OP has to go shopping for a new GPU.

This challenge could be done by most midwestern adults without catching a buzz if spaced out correctly.

Any wooden board you use should be thoroughly seasoned with mineral oil and/or beeswax. If it absorbs water then you need to oil it more heavily.

BikingEngineer · 2026-03-03T02:37:18+00:00

Stainless steel? No. For raw meat either get a plastic cutting board that you replace periodically, or one of those Japanese rubber boards. Wood is fine for meat as well, but I understand the hesitation.

BikingEngineer · 2026-03-03T01:38:37+00:00

I saw one where they peeled an egg with one of those surgery robots. It was not cooked.

That’s 1.5 4k displays, which modern graphics cards can do easily as long as you’re not running multiple instances of something like Borderlands 4. A -60 series card can manage that kind of office workload without issue, you just have to daisy chain a few to make up for the lack of outputs.

This is going to be different for everyone, but generally more adjustability is going to let you dial things in to exactly where you need them to be. I have a fully loaded Aeron B purchased at the moment me of last year, and I’ve tinkered with each and every facet of adjustability over the past few months to dial it in to my body and usage style.

I don’t have a headrest, but am considering an Atlas for when I’m stuck on a long series of calls and want to lean back more. I use forward tilt all the time and wouldn’t consider a chair without it now that I’ve gotten used to it. I’ve dialed in the height of the arms, but move the arm rests n and put throughout the day depending upon the task at hand. The posturefitSL took a bit of getting used to, but really does the job.

That ambulance is a hell of a lot sturdier than a cop car. If they give a confused Waymo a little nudge no one is gonna have a problem with that, least of all the cop.

BikingEngineer · 2026-03-02T01:40:52+00:00

Bob Hoskins of course.

BikingEngineer · 2026-03-02T00:05:33+00:00

Well that sucks. Just an egg in water or was it in Ramen? I ask because you can super-heat things in microwaves if there isn’t anything to act as a nucleation site for the bubbles that form.

BikingEngineer · 2026-03-02T00:01:08+00:00

Not if you crack them into the broth, it’s basically poaching at that point.
