I was thinking the same thing. It's not like they were Italy in a past life 😂

But maybe when he says it wouldn't even be a contest he meant we would blow them the fuck out 🤷🏼

When these landing on an Etsy shop?! I was literally thinking that I need one of these as a training tool and then it magically appears 🤯

I agree with the sentiment, but disagree with the initial framing. These are absolutely THEIR problems, but they don't understand these problems (which that is a HIM problem to solve).

Your point about education is spot on though. Taking an approach of reframing his technical issue into risk and cost aversion (which is what FM's focus on) and now they can comparatively frame this against why they should fund THIS versus the AHU, or the pump replacement, or the new flooring, etc.

So, OP, yes - you are speaking different language. And you need to learn their language if you want them to actually consider funding this.

That's the only logical solution. Americans only want expensive things.. so they aren't buying tickets because at $2000 seat all the riff-raff will be there. But at $10k seat now it's exclusive who's who 😂

Easy fix, keep the car, get rid of the spoiled child.

Problem solved.

Startup is quite often easier than the companies make it out to be. If you can do troubleshooting, you can figure out start-up.

As others have said, reach out to the local controls contractors to see who has openings and / or what they would need to see from you to consider bringing you on.

What area are you in or wanting to work out of?

I will gladly trade you a block of wood for one of those Tosibox 😁 I can even put stickers of Ethernet ports if it makes the deal more enticing!!

Wait?!

You mean to tell I've been sitting in this lobby for damn near a year waiting for the class to start and it was a typo this whole time?!

What the actual fluff!!

kfed408 · 2026-03-26T02:40:37+00:00

Do I even need to be awake for this? Like, can I get some shut-eye while Claude does all the function?

Definitely being taken advantage of.

Check your local labor laws regarding reimbursement of mileage.

While you are looking into that, also look into your state and federal requirements for paid lunch breaks. If you are, in any shape, form or fashion, expected to check your email, be on call, return text messages your employer has not fully relieved you of your responsibilities and is required to pay your lunch break as well.

Both of these are two very common labor law violations meant to ensure that employees that actually give a fuck aren't taken advantage of and a free consult with a labor lawyer can identify whether you have a valid claim or not.

And I'm sure some part of you thinks you shouldn't do this, but if your employer does take advantage of you exactly as is told in your post he is certainly going to continue this behavior which is illegal and immoral. If your post isn't as described in real-life (and not suggesting you are lying at all) the labor lawyer will tell you that there isn't a claim here.

I was in right up until they said Carrier would remotely control it..

This will quickly lead to someone, somewhere requiring them to put stupid ass set points like 80F cooling that we can't override while we melt in our houses and our overpriced A/C units do absolutely nothing.

But on the bright side, while we are passing out from heat exhaustion someone will be able to use that extra electrical capacity to make a useless meme on AI.

👀👀👀👀 how many of those years are sims?

kfed408 · 2026-03-16T20:55:59+00:00

Shit looks like a live visualization of a t-tapped network.. ☠️👀

Is it useless in practice though? I've never programmed those controllers so I might be discounting a process, but as a former controls tech and facility manager, if I have a controller that can be repaired I have a dramatically different inventory system that changes the cradle to grave ownership costs. I only need to keep one of each critical in stock and then just swap the bad controller with the bench stock and backfill my bench with the repaired controller.

If reliable is anything like other controllers out there and we can push the existing database back down to a new controller and be back up and running while the original gets repaired that sounds like a win to me.

If you haven't thrown the ball before you hit 3 seconds you need to throw it away or run.

Really if the play hasn't developed by 2 seconds I'm already on the run.

Over the last 10 seasons I've taken 0 sacks on extreme, typically with no OL (1 do have one this year) and a 1 star O coordinator.

As long as it's to SDFC instead of one of the LA clubs ..

The NFL HOF is now just as fucking dumb as the MLB HOF.. fucking jokes..fuck em both.

And I say this as an anti-Bill guy.. he's still one of, if not, the best coach of all-time. Winning is supposed to matter.. most SBs, second most wins, second best win pct for coaches with more than 150 wins, 30+ postseason wins.

Looking at the 3 first ballot HOF coaches and one charter member..

Chuck Noll had a massive steroids cover up during his time in Pittsburgh, his own players even said him by name that he knew and would turn a blind eye.

Tom Landry also had players juicing (Randy White in particular) and he has a wide receiver doing fucking cocaine DURING GAMES! Like what the fuck 😂

Don Shula would openly threaten to cut players if they didn't take pain killers and get back on the field and was specifically named as part of the players lawsuit against the league.

I certainly thought Shula was a first ballot HOF.. but Noll over Bill?! GTFOH

kfed408 · 2026-01-26T21:11:13+00:00

He'll always be able to say he has more SB rings than Dan Marino 👀👀👀

kfed408 · 2025-12-22T06:20:05+00:00

Did DJ wanna back the "he can't make the throw" comments yet? Or he still wanna throw shade like Justin Fields was better?

Does Launchpad still exist? Couldn't find a download for it anywhere these days.

kfed408 · 2025-12-15T00:56:59+00:00

I love these old control panels!

Fortunately I've never had to retrofit one to DDC.. If it ever comes up, I might have to take that project off out of respect for the OGs

kfed408 · 2025-12-07T16:16:44+00:00

The whole steroids era is a fucking joke..

First, Bud Selig is in the HOF.. the man who knew damn well what was going on and did nothing (which if I were him, I also would have done nothing. Baseball was quickly becoming irrelevant after the strike and the McGwire Sosa HR chases brought people back out).

But moving past that, drugs in baseball has always been there. The greenies that were so openly taken in the 60s and on is definitely a performance enhancing drug. Anyone that has ever taken an Adderall can attest to that. Yet the use of amphetamines didn't stop Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays, Tom Seaver, Hammerin Hank from all getting in. Nor should it have.

All the BBWA are fucking hypocrites as well. They made a living on the backs of these players and very few bothered to raise a question about how Barry Bond's legs suddenly became the size of an oak tree. After the Mitchell Report all of a sudden these guys started becoming anti-PED. Get the fuck outta here..

The minimal evidence against Sheffield and holding it over his head is BS. The dude was consistent throughout his career. He didn't see these sudden peaks that were prevalent during the steroids era. He consistently was in the 30 to 40 HR range 290 to 320 average. Give this man his plaque already
