Between Scott Adams and Rush Limbaugh cancer has two solid wins.

I used to work at an amusement park and the roller coaster I worked on had a touch screen in the control booth that was connected to windows 2000s PC in the room below the station where all the PLCs that controlled the ride were. Best I could tell the windows PC would monitor the PLCs and the screen up top would show us errors and just general ride info.

Anyways one of coworkers was saying the previous year the ride was down and one of the maintenance dudes was down there playing solitaire cause it was showing up on the screen in the booth.

Ah I didn't recognize the Whomping Willow

Yeah but mainly because you're driving through Alabama and Mississippi.

I built my PC in 2006ish so YouTube existed but I doubt anyone was doing PC building tutorials then. The thing that pushed me over the edge to building vs getting a pre built was seeing an episode of How It's Made where they were building PCs and I was like damn that looks easy as shit, I was not wrong.

Instead of a bird can I just use my station wagon full of tapes?

Y'all are using Linux for that?

He's famously from Ypsilanti Michigan, everyone knows this!

20f is cold but honestly it's not super uncomfortable until you start getting down into the teens and single digits.

Nah guy on the right has a sweater 60f, 40f, 20f ish.

I think I got the Taiping Rebellion.

They're actually a beaver.

We have enough stupid people in the US, I hear the surface of the sun is real nice this time of year.

I also wonder if multiviewer is going to be able to work with this. I know I'm not the most important person here but it seems like F1 is completely killing how I watch their races.

Edit: on second look the multiviewer devs seem to think their app will work fine with apple tv but won't know for certain till next year.

What? I feel like I'm missing something.

I think either Strange New Worlds or Lower Decks is a good starting point for someone new to Trek. I think I'd recommend SNW over Lower Decks though just because the number of references in Lower Decks to other Star Trek media is pretty high.

Good catch, I was thinking esp32s were arm, this one is riscv.

Only a dickhead would attempt to fire you for calling them a dickhead so it works either way.
