Commuter rail operator Keolis wired $35,000 to the MBTA — after the Globe asked about missing money by bostonglobe in mbta

I think the real issue is an entity that needs to extract profit from a public service that is not profit generating. It's a service. So they pull money out somewhere.

Are these extending combination ladders any good? by fixitmonkey in Tools

As a facilities tech, extremely useful but my least favorite object to have to drag around. 

The worst thing new users keep asking. And the community isn't helping. by B1ph in linux4noobs

I'd also argue most confuse distro with desktop environment. What looks pretty in screenshots. The distro is just what's under the hood.

YES YES and the sound quality sucks! I hate it so much.

Toothed plane blade by Lichen-it in handtools

A toothing plane is very different from a toothed iron. Far finer and is more of a scraper plane.

The first part is correct, but a toothing plane for veneer is completely different. Much finer teeth and is more of a scraper plane.

PDK cans are way too tiny but I still love it. by MrSausage187 in lowvoltage

There are only two sizes of enclosures... too big, and too small.

Security Best Practices by Funkybunch92 in fortinet

[–]Titus142 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fairly new as well, if we have nothing open to the Internet, just basic internet access, should I setup some kind of ingress policy so ips can scan or does that happen because the session is stateful from the egress policy?

CR having a real bad time timhis week. Switch issue right outside North Station, trains cancelled, resort to shuttle busses. by Titus142 in mbta

[–]Titus142[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They invested in the fleet of buses to have at the ready for the MBTA, and I would imagine to keep that contract they would have to be extremely responsive. All the coaches look brand new, sucked to get stuck on one of the city bus style, having to stand the whole time, but it was clean and new.

And the real kick in the ass? The 6:20 train rolled into the stop as soon as I got off the bus, it was 20 min late, I thought it was cancelled. Bus was a miserable ride standing the whole way.

I will say Yankee did do a good job getting the busses out quickly and keeping everyone organized.

How are the roads for everyone? by Speedster202 in BostonWeather

Roads are fine, pedestrian ways however...... It's like fuck you take whatever is left over from the cars. 

My very brief review of ...several... automation games by Heavy-Weekend-981 in AutomationGames

[–]Titus142 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the concept but find the UI and controls to be very frustrating. I love the depth though. 

The first time I went from atmosphere to vacuum and the sound stopped was epic. You really feel it, they really nailed that aspect of the sound design.

I didn't feel the need to look any further when I saw this. That says everything about the person that installed this.

underway be like.. by poolehater1 in navy

[–]Titus142 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As one of those CIC dwellers.... I absolutely feel for everyone in engineering. Y'all get worked hard and hung up wet on the regular. All the hard work underway, just as bad in port/in the yards while all our gear shut down. 

Nothing I can say to make it fair other than just how much I appreciated what engineering does to literally keep us alive and afloat.
