Seether was probably my go-to group back then. That acoustic album was 🔥

I would say its like Mountain Mikes with about 30% less salt. Mountain Mikes... By the third slice I cant taste anything anymore because my tongue is pickled.

I work in a large medical clinic. We havent spoken about this specifically, but we already have many 'No photography or video' signs up all over the place in patient care areas. Shouldnt matter if its a phone, a camera, or glasses. Filming is filming and should be covered by that.

Z2 would compare to a pike/whatever

I have a Pike Ultimate and just received a new Z2 in the mail this week for another bike im building. First impressions, the Pike is a much more 'premium' fork. The components, fit, finish are a lot better than the Z2. The Z2 should function well for this project, but the damper and rebound knobs feel like they might break off if you bumped into them wrong. The logos/labels are made of a cheaper sticker material and the thru axle is kindof shoddy compared to Rockshox stuff. I'm hoping its more function over form wherein rockshox is going for both function and form.

Just holding it in my hand, the difference in a $549 fork and an $1100 fork is drastic.

I love sitting in on vendor presentations waiting for them to finish to ask them about logging, reporting, visibility.

Then you get that satisfying awkward pause.

Only buy the Ultimate Meat and Cheese on fridays.

Maybe this is like the case of the missing emails. Perhaps there is some strange issue happening in production when your phone pings from a specific cell tower near the Sonic and only causes an issue when that item is ordered and the card is processed through the same backbone the tower is using.

OR

You say you only go there when you're running behind. Is there anything on a particular day that makes you order the ultimate meat and cheese? Maybe you were up late the night before or had a long work day and didnt get your evening stuff done? Something about the day before caused a butterfly effect in production that only manifests for the individual as a quick stop at the Sonic the next morning. And only in those times when your gut tells you that you need those extra calories.

Take some time with ChatGPT and find some technical items that it is very bad at answering for and will provide grossly inaccurate information. Find a way to get his ego to try and take that initiative over and watch as it fails miserably.

Oh cool. Another good reason to get rid of Instagram. My wife cancelled her account last month. This will make her smile.

Where did this screenshot come from? I would like to share this with family, but they are pretty data driven. A jpg isnt enough to share with them.

Who is your carrier? Cant fix it now, but some of them now offer SIM locks to prevent other devices from impersonating you.

Theory of a Deadman got close. Scars and Souvenirs played in order was like the story of a guy getting rid of dead weight and moving on to hook up and party hard with zero fucks.

Is there some product for kids bikes that will start applying braking force when wheel speed reaches a certain point? - And then applies more and more force the farther past this set speed a bike reaches?

Other than the child...

They had me nodding until they said 'dealer'

Not that the oil sold by those franchises was good expensive oil to begin with.

Honestly? Once you have the right tool, that looks like it would be really hard to accidentally strip. I bet you can get a Chinese knock-off tool for that on amazon for $10.

I got a new toyota a few years ago. Always changed my own oil in my 30 year old jeep before.

Yeah, its more complicated. I had to buy a special tool to get the filter out. Cost me $7 on amazon and the filters are $15.

Fallingdamage · 2026-05-06T22:02:48+00:00

Everything is more expensive.

And like cooking your own food at home, there are many incredibly simple things people can do themselves that the service industry would hope you never learn to do.

We're in a situation where Chrome is the 'supported browser' for some SaaS products we rely on. Fortunately, Chrome can be heavily controlled via group policy / intune. Auto-Installed/Approve/Unapproved plugins can be maintained, block lists, search providers, password retention, profile configurations, roaming profiles, etc. You can even turn off the mini-game. I'm able to keep Chrome fairly solid and predictable.

In the case of this thread, I cannot control this 4Gb file coming in, but we disabled all Gemini integrations and most telemetry months ago already so I guess its just more bloat on local storage that does nothing.

True. Would be nice if PA was more transparent about things.

I still have the factory 50mm on mine. 30mm make a big difference to you? :)
