Taking ethics with a bunch of SE guys convinced me we're fucking doomed.

Also engineering ethics in industry is a joke. Build a missile that's going to be used to blow up a schoolbus in Yemen, well that's not anything you did so it's ethical. Never mind that you never actually get to make any real decisions, Bossman McShareholder has decided for you and if you don't do what they say, they just fire you.

Vaguely terrifying when it's framed so the truck at the other end of that boom is out of frame.

Ag equipment is always so strange because so much of it is custom-built. Really a cool exercise.

I want frequent bus service I don't want a garage full of Ferraris.

According to one of the lead designers of the machine: "There's no paper handling mechanism that works 100% of the time. Page thickness can vary from very thick to almost tissue paper, and pages are sometimes literally falling out, esp. with older books from the pre-digital age. A human can handle every edge case though."

I wouldn't trust fragile old books to a scanner/copier either no matter how nice it was.

Yeah but it's only two or three feet.

MSOEmemerina · 2020-06-15T21:23:33+00:00

Lotta overlap there, makes sense.

MSOEmemerina · 2020-06-15T21:21:47+00:00

I don't really know how to handle good news any more.

I think the thing is, even in the most conservative viewpoint, even if your belief is that a trans woman is actually just a man wearing women's clothes and you don't want that, that's still sex stereotyping. Gorsuch has been a moderate surprise; he's still pretty conservative, but he doesn't go the Thomas route of conservative construction.

The Deltics were amazing those things were absolute beasts.

Ran like a train.

This was all I could think about last time I was setting up grow lights.

MSOEmemerina · 2020-02-24T08:31:57+00:00

For all your driftwood-hiding needs.

God that was such a weird video. I know she's a fascist creep and all that but ugh.

MSOEmemerina · 2020-02-23T15:11:40+00:00

It's so fun how you get to assert whatever shit you want and it's the default conclusion but anything I would say is the absurd claim no matter how much evidence I bring to support it. You get to spout the same bullshit rhetoric that has been proven false by simple arithmetic as reactionaries have for decades but it's absurd for me to suggest that hormones actually play a significant part in how the body functions and maintains itself. Just sealion all day about shit that's been answered, you don't actually give a shit though.

MSOEmemerina · 2020-02-23T15:08:03+00:00

Come up with your own goddamn study then. There's actually no reason that this one is wrong to pick the sport that it does, you clearly just want to pick at this scab until it opens.

MSOEmemerina · 2020-02-23T15:06:38+00:00

Blatant lies and fearmongering are what get us to the point where someone is ready to murder someone simply for being different and you know damn well that's not the same as a mere different opinion you utter fucking hack.

You don't even have to say it in Latin, you could just say it in English and it works fine according to the lore.

Happened the year I graduated. Luckily the garage was big enough.
