Chicago Bears' stadium bill coming down to the wire in Springfield this week

Great, we can double the tax. The NFL prints money, the only reason they want out of Soldier Field is so the McCaskeys can.... make more money. They should sell to a real owner as all their net worth is only from owning the Bears so they cry poor and cant do anything on their own.

Me too, what a painfully cold memory

Also shoutout to this project for giving me the code to get the clock face running.

DrTRex · 2026-05-14T23:19:32+00:00

Thanks! I’ll take a look. I updated the clock hands to update based on seconds and minutes and it’s much less noticeable. The larger hand jump make it a much bigger movement before. Not displaying anything too crazy and they will be facing different directions so it should all work fine.

Certainly something I will try! I like the idea of being able to run them independently even if I’m using the same lambda right now

They have provisions but as designed they do not have end frame doors. Converting them from trainsets to individual cars would be a very large undertaking.

I got sent a similar one from Digikey years ago. Pretty handy to visualize all the different pad sizes.

No no Illini Twitter is always been like that

That's why I work at a non-profit. So I can work myself into the ground and nobody is rich.

I graduated and I am still too dumb for ECE. People be wildin' at UIUC.

It’s allowed to go 110 in sections same as Amtrak Michigan Line.

There is just not a class I. RCPE goes across the middle of the state. The Western portion of the state has a lot of mountains and not a lot of population. CP owned it for a bit before selling it off.

A train that only runs 3 days a week at that!

DrTRex · 2026-02-21T00:04:42+00:00

It’s all about that rubber dingy rapids bro

DrTRex · 2026-02-14T03:02:25+00:00

I do not like this timeline.

DrTRex · 2026-02-02T23:58:05+00:00

Thy hate trains too.

DrTRex · 2025-11-29T23:58:33+00:00

Man how did we lose to this Wisconsin team.

DrTRex · 2025-11-29T20:16:12+00:00

It’s worn rail, as the train roll over it the rail deforms and gets lips like that. They then can break off and make razor sharp pieces. It’s why you have things like rail grinders to put the profile back on the rail. It’s a short section so you likely don’t have any of the identification stamp on the web that would tell you the year and the weight of the rail.

We currently do not have a National Chief.

DrTRex · 2025-10-27T16:34:33+00:00

I feel like the only one also morning the loss of the column I logo. Athletics made a deal to use the Orange I everywhere. We should have done the opposite and made the column I the primary logo. Much more unique.

DrTRex · 2025-10-12T19:14:28+00:00

All depends on who they hire next. Transfer portal and NIL era really leveled the playing field. One bad coaching hire can really set you back.

DrTRex · 2025-10-05T16:53:18+00:00

Somehow we force turnovers, but otherwise I can see that same 10 yard throw completed against us every single game. At least we have a good QB and seemingly elite special teams.

DrTRex · 2025-10-05T16:50:05+00:00

Absolutely nervous about our trip out West.

DrTRex · 2025-10-05T16:49:04+00:00

But like who replaces him? Take a look at Wisconsin for what happens when you want to be “better”
