I’ll give it foil credit.  Presumably the goal of the thieves was something other than seeing the car returned to its owner.  That was prevented from succeeding.

Shortly after $kaycog retired from her works of righteousness?

That’s GM’s new Dynamic Downforce Generator™. It’s a feature, not a bug, and they didn’t even have to pay extra for it.

Any recommendations for good places to learn about rear diffs?  Final drive ratio is easy enough to get, but open, locking, electronic locking, etc... I’d like to understand better how they work, use cases, etc.

Warp speed, that’s what!

Thanks. I appreciate the reply and looking into it.

As much as I personally appreciate the sex toys, I wish there were a way to display (or share with work colleagues...) a version of Inventory without the toy posts. I used to share posts with deals people were looking for. Now I really can’t. Hopefully it’s pretty clear that HR would frown on that.

I don’t like “passionate”. If someone is passionate about a particular technology, etc... uggh. Something about that tells me that they have an empty life. I guess if they’re passionate about helping others, their family, a worthy charitable effort, and so on, that’s ok.  But “Passionate about Ruby on Rails…

This would make a great 28th Amendment to the Constitution...

I’m glad I’m not the only one.  I’ve been Blender Bottling scrambled eggs for a few years now.  It’s especially great for larger batches.

Thank you, I do get your point. That’s sad. The portrait of the benign, happy slave (“Look, they’re almost like family, like pets!”)... uggh.

I haven’t seen it, so please don’t think I’m challenging your take. I don’t have the foundation to do so. A question, though, as I’ve read comment(arie)s about GWTW... is it racist or does it depict racism (that is, the “reasonably actual” events of the time)? I could see the things you describe as being factual in…

The section of America occupied by Jay Leno’s garage. Does that count?

Will they confiscate magazines? Because a rolled-up magazine* can be used to crush someone’s throat. Saran Wrap can suffocate a person. A bottle of hand sanitizer is basically a Molotov cocktail minus the rag stuffed in the top. Teeth can kill, so dentists may have to be brought in to remove those. And on and on...

Yep, I suppose people have the right not to wear face masks. And should someone come to me protesting for their right to poke themselves in the eye with a rusty spoon I would also agree, under the 10th Amendment. I would also think, “what a damned fool”.

Holy crap... learn to read the room is right.  If you genuinely think there’s a problem (which you shouldn’t and MYOB), be friendly.  Introduce yourself, strike up a conversation, talk shop a little, get to know them.  Maybe they’ll say, “I manage blah blah up on 3".  Maybe they’ll say, “My buddy said I could come by…

So I find that when I run everything hurts and I fall over and stay in the fetal position for about an hour and when people claim they want to help I tell then nuh-uh, they’re stupid and I don’t need help and they should take their dumb faces somewhere else and I want off this stupid planet.  Do I need different shoes?

It’s a stormtrooper.  Even if it were a real, live weapon her aim isn’t good enough to shoot someone standing right next to her.

Every historically oppressed and bullied segment of society should be open to this, and should train in the use of firearms. The bully that knows there’s a strong chance of not walking away from a confrontation will be far less likely to risk it.

Will you be ruling with an iron boot?
