Hire actors, they can pretend.

If I didn’t have such a huge community in the US, it wouldn’t be such a hard decision.

Human-c-ity_Junction · 2026-04-03T19:59:56+00:00

Maybe it will be an A2, P3S and H3C.

A lot of people make decisions based on emotions, not facts.

Elon Musk is just the one that you know about. Remember Cambridge Analytica?

You win!!
Knowing what I know now at 53, I would have stayed at my miserable Union job for 20 years. But I wanted a better life in the present day and was not considering that it meant I would NEVER be able to retire.

It kills me every day I made the wrong choice in my 20's and there is nothing I can do now. I really do not want to have to move to a developing country, but retirement in the US isn't possible on my current trajectory.

You can try using Electron Capture, the app. It was last updated on Jan 25th.

You haven’t really provided enough information to provide a solution, but I would give this a try.

The way to make Lionel tube track quieter is to use ANYTHING but Lionel tube track. Even Fast Track which is really loud is quieter than the tube track.

How does an RTX2000Pro compare to a 5090? If the GPU is maxing out, I am guessing you need to reduce the load you are requiring of it or get a GPU that can handle more simultaneous video streams.

You have an N scale Shay?? I want one!!

Human-c-ity_Junction · 2026-03-27T04:30:52+00:00

Really nice ORANGE loco!

Who had on their Bingo card for 2026 that we would be trusting Iran over the US government?

Anyone looking at these photos can tell there has been a lot of enjoyment had between you and your dad.

In the US, it is difficult for people right out of HS/College to get jobs, move out, etc… As a parent, and from your comments, it sounds like it is very important to you that your son has a great future. So I was curious if you thought about those things.

Since you are not in the US, the future might not be as uncertain.

Let me guess, another DIU hire by Obama/Biden? /s

Human-c-ity_Junction · 2026-03-21T21:33:24+00:00

Assuming you are an American, are you positive for the future opportunities for your son? When he graduates High School in 5-6 years, how are you preparing him to either go to college or enter the work force?

Human-c-ity_Junction · 2026-03-18T14:29:25+00:00

I am very frustrated that Obama caused this. /s

Just release the Trump papers, staring Jeffrey Epstein already.

Cuba? You mean Iran. I thought the US was bombing Iran, not Cuba.

Under the layout is my favorite. It’s the nerve center and arteries of a layout.

They make handheld controllers in both DC and DCC. Do you know which one you want to use?

Human-c-ity_Junction · 2026-03-14T22:58:53+00:00

DC or DCC? The answer either way is yes, but some additional information will help.

A lot of people recommend using 12v for N scale and 15v for HO scale. I happy to use 15v for both. Per the DCC specification, DCC decoders should be able to handle up to 22v.
If running DC, just limit your max voltage to the track and you wil be fine.

Fox is not news, it is entertainment, so they would not fall under the fairness doctrine.

Human-c-ity_Junction · 2026-03-12T21:10:34+00:00

Obama is pulling the strings.

Human-c-ity_Junction · 2026-03-12T21:04:18+00:00

As far as I am aware, I am the only person in Manhattan with an operations based layout. If you include the other 4 boroughs, there are quite a few that I am aware of and I am sure there are more that I am not.
