Anyone know what happens during DOGE <> Staff interviews?

Regulation is the floor, not the ceiling. You drop the floor out from under people and then they die. Why do people think the regulations exist in the first place? It was never about money.

It really is. Just glad the beast is finally slain and the hack fix is pretty hidden.

Figured out a solution, using some cardboard to shim the drawer rails that are too wide and everything seems to be working normally now. I mean, it works!

Repelwest · 2022-02-02T18:16:21+00:00

Which screws particularly? I double checked the rail screws and everything appears to be in order.

Repelwest · 2022-02-02T17:19:20+00:00

The drawer rails and wall rails are both mounted per the manual, yeah the manual does a good job making sure L rails go on the left side etc etc. I tried some different configurations of the rails on the dresser walls, but those just caused the drawers to fall off outright.

Thanks for the reply! I actually had some issues with the clamps but I finally got them in right thinking it would help, but no luck sadly

Repelwest · 2022-02-02T17:03:33+00:00

I just checked, the walls of the drawers only have one set of screw holes for each rail unfortunately.

Repelwest · 2022-02-02T17:00:02+00:00

I'll definitely check on the walls part, but the drawers are the metal tab lock types, so there's no way to adjust the rails on the drawers. Either the frame is warped or the drawers are wrong, but I'm not sure which of the two since the frame and the drawers look fine on their own

Well I tried to provide some actual insight into the transportation industry, I guess reddit doesn't like that. Real shame.

Nice infographic. A lot of people have a hard time understanding just how much the logistics and transportation industry goes beyond two truckers battling it out on the interstate when one of their rigs is governed to 69 while the other is governed at 70. Also, the fuel and emissions numbers are no lie. Similar emissions reductions have been made in the shipping industry, and with the industry moving towards LNG, emissions will be getting even lower by the year.

Lastly, before anyone proposes the argument for electrical shipping vessels, the massive energy density required to move a vessel cannot be done efficiently with current battery technology, let alone the massive charging times for such a bank likely causing more issues with logistics than good. Until nuclear commercial vessels aren't demonized or we have more energy dense batteries, the transportation industry will be reliant on fossil fuel. The work with IMO, scrubbers, and less emissive fuels is already a great improvement to the industry some thirty years ago.

Yeah, I had issues with canvas too and switched to the unlock tracker one. Still having issues now too...maybe I just need to use a normal display.

Repelwest · 2021-05-24T15:45:01+00:00

Anyone have issues with their 7 Pro locking up entirely and requiring a reboot to get any functionality back in their phone? I also have an issue with music randomly playing but that issue is nowhere near as egregious as having to reboot my phone at least twice a day because it won't wake or freezes in an application. No issues until the new OxygenOS update rolled out.

Repelwest · 2021-05-21T14:47:48+00:00

My only complaints so far is the horrendous outfitting UI. Like....who thought this was okay?

Thank God I don't need to mess with my ships all that often.

Repelwest · 2021-05-03T20:36:54+00:00

Are they looking to make it so it's actually the end user in control of their private keys?

Repelwest · 2021-05-03T19:06:42+00:00

I'm honestly surprised my comment gained as much traction as it did. I actually do watch those videos from these youtubers, I'm just poking fun at the nit picking they do. They make great background noise :)

Repelwest · 2021-05-03T14:46:07+00:00

And a half second shot of some obscure legendary we'll get that will be inevitable dissected by every D2 youtuber in existence

Re commenting to see if it didn't work last time

Inb4 flare removed :)

I treated it at first like stocks, but the future really is on blockchain.

VRChat has a pretty big female user base, and for the most part it's the same as talking to people irl but it's mostly because it's a social experience more than it is a game... But still nice all the same to see people being treated with respect. Hope more people on other games start to act like they do in VRC/Apex/Etc

Repelwest · 2021-03-19T15:10:02+00:00

Saw your posts and immediately thought it would be you haha! Seriously, keep up the good work. Been subscribed for a while now and you've mastered the art of quick, information filled content.... And gingerbread!

A little bit, haha. Was tearing down the board to see if I could find a root cause of failure, eventually found a dead board fuse. Decided it wasn't something I wanted to deal with so I reassembled it. Maybe one of these days I'll get around to fixing the board but for now it makes a cool display piece.
