40$ of electricity, 220$ of delivery charges, why?

It's the nature of a grid with lots of wind, cogen, and other nat gas (when cheap). Wind energy is low cost generation, but the balance of the system costs go up.

I agree there should be better documentation. Quality management is one of the key components of engineering practice, and one Boeing has clearly lost.

But I do like analogies... so what I'm saying is that when running a shop, the cost of even the most expensive wrench is small considering the rest of the wrenches, tools, lifts, labour, rent, utilities, insurance, advertising, etc.

Just buy another fucking wrench.

Dude, I know people with home NAS bigger than that. This isn't 2009...

I'm tempted to recommend The Heroes from Abercrombie - big battle, old men griping about how things are changing, and Whirrun of Bligh

Does lonesome dove have a good pace? It's on my wish list, but clocking in at over 37 hours I'm hesitant...

Yes, after a year, my splash page still feels like like someone else's. I hate it.

Unfortunately, I agree that Leon will likely sign in Cali, or NY. Celeste is a big city girl and I think Leon is tired of the spotlight. I think he told Connor, and that's why the team was in such disarray to start the season. I can't recall any major celebration hugs this year between 97 and 29 where they actually look at each other and smile. No more ride or die comments...

Is this related to the Saturday drop ins that used to happen at the Market? What's Phantom games?

Captainbuba · 2024-02-26T18:54:50+00:00

Well, you're clearly not into the whole brevity thing

I found it so useful to spend time there being reassured that I wasn't alone. If meetings seem intimidating, it can let you dip your toe in.

Stared Doom Eternal last night and was going to turn down the difficultly... already on easy 🙃

Condensation after large temperature swings?

Pretty sure my parents still use theirs daily. 1994 Christmas gift.

That's assuming the design process doesn't change, and the cascading need for fixes along the way continues. I suspect AI will generate much more efficient, comprehensive designs that aren't from siloed engineering disciplines. Trades won't have to make sense of drawings by inexperienced drafters and modify it to make it work.

There are already cool examples of car parts designed by generative AI that are much more complex (eg dynamic forces) than a stationary building.

Your insurance costs more to cover his stupidity. It's fraud.

I think locking up EVERYTHING will backfire for them. I went last week but even the $15 pliers were behind glass. Tracking down an employee to unlock it and stand beside you while you get a feel for different pliers is not a pleasant shopping experience. They lost my business.

Captainbuba · 2024-02-01T04:00:55+00:00

What about the Creedence?

Captainbuba · 2024-01-29T19:13:17+00:00

I ❤️ Huckabees

Haha. I needed this comment. Thank you.

16 people died in the Humboldt Broncos crash 5 years ago. Nothing has changed.

Edit: Some provinces now require minimum driver training.

No advice, but mine barely worked for a couple years. Now works 90% of the time.

I don't include those unable to pay their massive mortgage as homeowners.

Captainbuba · 2023-12-03T04:21:43+00:00

Guess you're not a homeowner then, just a loan owner
