   Might be a good moment to pass on this coming rebuild of X-Wing, XWVM[0], that's in the offing. It uses the original game files and audio but is built on a modern 3D engine. [0] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqWo9FNii

   This is true. The USA has over 10x the population and 238x the land area. A national train system = dollar amounts that the human mind can't really grasp.

   Justin Wilson was most certainly a real Cajun, and his cooking was authentic. The Wikipedia bio article[1] seems pretty accurate and fair. His TV persona was an act, but it was a genuine caricature of Cajun fun and humor. Funny as hell, and

    Zummo's is from my hometown of Beaumont, Texas. SW Louisiana and coastal SE Texas share quite a bit of that Cajun culture. I have unsuccessfully tried to persuade Zummo's to send their delicious Party Time Hot Links to my current

    Yup. Dependency on profitable waste is a business decision that comes with some risk. If it doesn't pan out, it's the company's own fault.

    This right here. I save metal scraps and other valuable recyclables and take them to a junk dealer for a few bucks when I can make more than the price of transport gas. Most things that go in my trash bin are things I can't profit from

    Thanks for this quote. Well said, and poignant. I aspire to one day speak English real good.

    Pre-Covid, Adam Savage built a portable condensing/evap cooling system using an old Soviet flight suit. He teamed up with an engineer to make it happen. Fascinating design/build video. https://www.youtube.com/watch

    I dunno. Seems like most Marxist efforts thus far have pretty much made poor assumptions about human nature, causing their collapse or transformation into something less hopeful. Heck, the USA barely survived its first hundred years, and it

    I think I've worn out the key caps for <Ctrl> and T on many a keyboard because of the utility of that "hidden" tool.

    Any Noctua brand fan will stun you with its silence. I installed four 20mm fans in a network switch to replace its screaming loud factory fans. They're all running ~1200RPM and it now sounds like a small desk fan. A larger format fan r

    It made me quite happy to be able to leave the meeting entirely. Do you think you could turn this into an Ad-hoc D&D dungeon so that when you leave, you could take a party out into the rest of the "office" and fight mutated p

    This is just what I've been looking for, and you beat me to scratching that itch. My job requires granular time tracking, but I've got to be able to do it at my desk and away from the office. As an Android user I can combine this
