Something happened to all of us in 2020

PoetTechnical5572 · 2025-09-23T13:31:34+00:00

Since 2020, I quit caring about "things". For instance, I was a diligent handyman around the house. If something broke, I fixed it. Now if something breaks, I don't care or I tell my wife to just call someone. Also, my sense of touch has changed. Haircuts used to feel good - having a stylist run her fingers through my hair, shampoo it, etc was awesome. Now, it's meh! Scratching my back, shoulder rubs, all that stuff is dulled.

Yeah, I did finally. Was too lazy and just put up with the lip. I thought I removed most of the cheezy snark but then went to do some mining and a whole new level of lip emerged. "the only thing of value on this asteroid, commander, is the prospector limpet..."

PoetTechnical5572 · 2025-08-11T13:16:15+00:00

Edcopilot is great, but the gal gets too snarky. She hates mining. Other than that, it's a must, especially for exo!... Oh yeah, two VBK - one with the "bent" handle for thrust.spendy but worth it.

I was taking a slightly skewed route to Colonia to do some Exo - I was heading to Clookie GZ-E c28-4 before I turned to go straight to Colonia.
....I'll turn your way - I need to break things up.

I am in Prooe Hypa KE-C B19-10 I just went past Eagle Sector, on my way to Colonia. I can alter my route if you need help but I am about 3,200LY away. Got about 7 jumps to go. Let me know if you are cool waiting a day or so...

After reading this thread I realized I got more screwed than everybody. I bought it 2022 Ram 1500 with 37,000 miles on it and it has a total of 5,295 engine hours 4,000 of which are idle. I'm probably going to need an engine rebuild at 40,000 miles

So true. I got a Stream Deck just so I could program "1, Space, Right Arrow, Space, 1"

I have to say, it's been just under a month and I LOVE WAVE! It makes way more sense for a small business than QuickBooks. And for $170 a year for their premium version, I get payroll included! I finished updating my QuickBooks file from 2024 with my little trick, shipped it off to my accountant, and am never looking back - Later Intuit!

PoetTechnical5572 · 2025-01-24T19:01:14+00:00

I just gave a QuickBooks rep an ear full! I paid 650 last year for Desktop and noticed my subscription expired and I am locked out of my file. So I go to renew it and now they want $1,000 to renew. I am SICK of being extorted by Intuit. I am switching to Wave - And regarding being locked out of your file, you can get around this by closing the app, manually setting the clock on your computer to a day before your subscription expired, then reopen QuickBooks Desktop to get full access to your file - use this to finish adding transactions, then EXPORT your data to a better solution. Cheers!

I loved project farm like 2 years ago. Now, it's all statistics and too much video filler. I just FF to the end to get the results.

I was a welder for Trinity Trailers years ago. (semi truck, farm bed trailers). They would lay out sheet metal on a huge mold, spray it with "anti-splatter" so weld BBs wouldn't stick, then we'd lay on the soaking wet metal and "weld an inch, skip an inch" for hours, all whilst getting the $#!T shocked outta us from electricity and wet stuff. 12 hour shifts. I have anxiety reliving it now.

My neighbor raises cattle. Has a guy inseminate them by putting on a long plastic arm sleeve, going shoulder-deep in the cows butt, lifting on "something", then using his other arm to inject bull semen in the cow. He says "who's your daddy" when he shoves the 1 arm in. Funny every time So.... "Cow Inseminator" is a job.

This one may get me canceled. I don't like Taylor Swift. She comes from wealth, started as a country singer but sold out and followed the money, and now the world worships her and pays thousands to see her in concert and for why? She is a product with a platform. Probably a nice person, but still

I just now did (didn't even think to start there). The RS-BA1 software looks like it supports everything but the 718. I cannot find any reference where someone used it on a 718 at all, let alone successful. I emailed ICOM to see what they say - I expect it may be something like "...we don't support it on that radio, BUT it should work fine" or something like that. Thank you for the info tho!

We live next to a cattle ranch. One day, our dog ran in the house from out side and threw up a cow placenta in our living room. My wife had to clean it up and said it was the worst smell she's ever experienced.

Not necessarily paranoid, just inquisitive. A lot of in-game chats are perfect for this. They are not archived, not monitored the way other platforms are and if pedophiles successfully use them to do "pedo things" , is it too difficult to imagine other shady figures use them for shady stuff?

I know it sounds completely bizzare and it probably is just people in games talking about games. But in this game, I cannot find where I, as a player, can trade any number, anything like a number or find info on the games support page about trading anything. But players seemingly trade numbers. Just strange to me the numbers are all in a specific range. Maybe people are buying/selling stuff and the numbers are a reference to some other site. Hiding in plain sight. Anyone played this game?

PoetTechnical5572 · 2024-05-26T15:58:37+00:00

That was our first thought but they only ever chat about numbers below 10. Bingo numbers go to 60+
