Yeah that stood out. There's basically zero mental health resources now after Reagan gutted it. Now the shooter would himself be shot or thrown in jail only to come out worse. Repeat.

In college especially before a test my brain was on study mode and would not turn off. Most often I couldn't sleep because I was trying to solve a problem. There was no problem it was just nonsense and no solution. I was going through

There is now a Winnebago eRV2 EV RV (say that fast lol). I wonder if that is an advantage more for an RV sitting gas going old and brakes stick. Sounds like a good idea for those wanting to live off-grid. Range is a dismal 173km (108mi) tho

Professional kitchens are crazy so much drama and tips is like gasoline. I've always found it amazing a cook makes a meal, a waiter carries it to the table. It can be a $10 hamburger or a $100 steak. The waiter gets a 10% or 20% tip of

This reminds me of my casino days. For slot machines each has several seals and the firmware and OS were checked each time anything was changed. We used a machine from a company called Kobetron for the EEPROMS but later the check was the OS

I'd say because it's not a lubricant it's penetrating oil, anti rust, anti moisture (its original purpose). And even when used as that most people I'd guess don't shake the can, a long shake, as required.

At a casino where I was a slot tech we used fiber optics that went into a fiber converter module and then RJ-45. Often I would look at the ends of the fiber connectors to see if they were lit or if the light looked odd. They were quite low
