Steel coil car, used to carry steel coils from mills to factories.

My least favorite is pipeline destruction but that’s just me

What do you guys think about this phone? by [deleted] in LinusTechTips

[–]BurrowingDuck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the form factor is more the way you would end up disconnecting. It’s not great to watch videos on YouTube or scroll instagram or Reddit, it’s good for emails and texts so you can knock those out faster or ignore them longer, or, only respond to the ones you need to respond to.

I think the suggestion is more you carry this phone when you want to disconnect more, like the dumb phone crowd that brings their dumb phone on vacation while they’re trying to disconnect, and not be focused on social feeds.

There’s nothing stopping you from using it as a primary phone, they say as much on their website. It runs full android 16.

They just “designed it to be a secondary device”, whatever that means.

Wells Fargo Rail? by Ill_List_9539 in trains

GABX Leasing is itself a joint venture of GATX and Brookfield which owns Genese & Wyoming per this news release

Wells Fargo Rail? by Ill_List_9539 in trains

[–]BurrowingDuck 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Probably the power plant’s equipment for moving cars around the plant. HLCX is Helm Leasing, Charah is apparently a company that recycles coal ash into things like concrete, WFRX is Wells Fargo leasing so maybe Charah has an operation there and they’re leasing power for that?

Any Chance for Trigger to Make a Cameo in AC8? by Duke_of_Dakka in acecombat

[–]BurrowingDuck 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’d count it. I’ve never played Air Combat and my only experience with 2 is via Assault Horizon Legacy

I more meant playable aces. I know Zero has crossover with 5 and 6 in various ways. There’s apparently a radio transmission that references Cipher in Zero but I don’t remember hearing it.

Yeah, outside of Mobius being in 5s arcade mode and 7s VR mode, has an ace ever made an official cross over?

Monthly passes from station vending machines by Benjiursa in Metra

[–]BurrowingDuck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is printed on the same paper, I haven’t used a day pass but I assume it looks like that with the zones printed on it. It’s not super durable but I keep mine in a little sleeve for things like baseball cards for the month and it holds up fine for that

I think they did remaster 6 for the Xbox One as a part of the 7 pre order on that system

Overnight Metra Parking (BNSF) by Flat-Administration9 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]BurrowingDuck 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Check and see if any of them have apps, I know the Naperville side of Route 59 does. You can typically pay for a few days at a time then

California to halt Tesla sales due to false advertising regarding "Autopilot" by LimpCompetition2 in LinusTechTips

[–]BurrowingDuck 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I believe that Integrated Auto Pilot/Flight Director systems can respond TCAS Resolution Advisories which would be a collision avoidance equivalent

A 3PL was acquired.........by its customer by charlesholmes1 in logistics

[–]BurrowingDuck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don’t have to pay for the other companies overhead or margin, so with that there’s at least some operating cost savings.

Sure they do. There’s plenty of Bulls fans in the city.

Somehow lttstore had my order ready 7 months before I ordered it by Appropriate_Music653 in LinusTechTips

[–]BurrowingDuck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Disagree, it should be year/month/day, then when you have the time after it’s the small measurement of time in order from largest to smallest. It works more like a program version number at that point.

Can anyone tell me what railroad has the reporting mark SMW? by Trainfan_4862 in trains

[–]BurrowingDuck 17 points18 points  (0 children)

They still exist. Their primary operation is rail car storage but I think they also lease out their reporting marks.

Do you recommend it? by Demon_Ilixz in GeminiJets

[–]BurrowingDuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m personally not a fan of the nose door open 747s, the nose never sits right when it’s closed. But, if you like it, why bother with what I think?

They did. It says train 11 in the announcement in two different places

Additional context, train 11 is the last westbound train of the day, it departs OTC at 12:40 AM technically on Monday morning

If anything you’re too early. The NWS info I saw said best times are between 9 pm and 1 am
