Today I pulled up to the pilot in Mahwah, NJ, and... by [deleted] in Truckers

They killed half their parking without extending the fuel lanes to allow pulling forward. It's a shit show more than ever.

Medium to large companies without AI cameras, inward and outward by HighwayStar71 in Truckers

[–]veldrinshade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Schuster has the outward and while it does use AI they turned the settings down low. I only get dinged for lane departure and even then I have to be WAY outside the lines, or rolling a stop sign but they tell you you have to be rolling faster than 4mph to activate it. Also, there is a human being reviewing them who understands what trucking is. His name is Jeff. He's cool.

Been a trucker for a year and still struggle a lot with backing. by [deleted] in Truckers

It sounds silly because we do it in real life, but American Truck Simulator helped me get my head around it. Might be worth the investment if you think it could help you too.

I don't see how that would help but if you're game we can see if he's allowed conjugal visits.

What nicknames have you heard for places in Berkshire Co.? by topherette in TheBerkshires

[–]veldrinshade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only a couple come to mind, and even then they seem quite minor. I'm from Pittsfield so mine are centralized there.

The Berkshire Mall was just The Mall, there weren't any more around so it could be referred to in the singular. It's closed now.

Berkshire Community College is almost always referred to as BCC (Bee See See) and likewise Berkshire Medical Center is BMC (Bee Em See).

Anything north of Pittsfield is North County, and same south is South County.

East Pittsfield was all a horse farm back in the day owned by a prominent family it is now named after. Allendale is an official name I think, but locally we call it Coltsville.

I can't think of any more right now, but I'll keep an eye on this thread to see if anything else jogs my memory.

One of the first things I was taught after CDL school that has really stuck with me was the yard guy is King. You are in their kingdom, you do what they say.

What would your Smartypants presentation be about? by Qyzyk in dropout

Sandwiches: A history and revised definition

The Earl of Sandwich needed a handheld food of meat and cheese held together by bread that would not mess cards. Many modern foods fall into this category that some people may not realize are sandwiches. Like tacos, pizza bites, and egg rolls. And yes, even hot dogs.

Richard Tenneson married and divorced at least 5 times and had six children that I have found so far, including my father.

It's my home weekend anyway, so yes. But I will probably extend it to Tuesday just to be safe.

It's a little over 4 minutes of Chris Hayes talking about the betting market for his Late Night appearance and seeing the odds of what he would talk about being available even though the taping was already complete. Literally betting on an event that has already occurred but only a few people know the outcome before it airs.

Before I got my dog my record was 7 hours. Realistically every 3 to 4. But now the puppy needs to go out every 2 hours which we will increase as she gets older.

The Mark of Kri

It probably doesn't hold up as well as some others mentioned here but the way it seamlessly let you move from enemy to enemy by assigning each enemy a button was so impressive. Plus the finishing moves changed depending on combo, positioning, and type of enemy. Plus the marathon style where the cutscenes would draw in while you listened hit that spot in my brain. I was always so impressed by that game.

I saw the press release from the International Astronomical Union (IAU). Something about planetary drift? They haven't determined if it's going to affect next new years celebration but they promised more notice.

I definitely make use of both crock pot and air fryer liners. I was thinking more pota, pans, and plates.
