Just saw a friend that is currently at Uni and asked them how they do it now (draw and dimension all at the same time). Small victories.

Removes 4 cm of paper between them; touché.

“well, have you tried like not thinking or learning everything you want to know?”

Speaks volumes.

I’ve been criticized for that, lots of people say “use the mouse, it’s better”. I say “how is it better?”. They say “it just is”.

The truth is that they can’t do the keyboard shortcuts and are jealous.

My voting location has paper ballots counted by scanners (it’s not practical or accurate/reliable to count that number of ballots by human hand).

If there’s a question, just rescan the ballots. Nothing’s perfect, but this (IMHO) is about as good as it gets.

The only change I would make is to have ranked choice voting.

My Drs office wouldn’t accept a request over the phone or email. Had to be fax.

Because, apparently, there is some magic fairy that verifies it is me sending the request from the fax machine on my end (i.e. it’s not possible for someone else to send a request for my medical records pretending to be me). 'cause you know “fax security” wouldn’t allow that. /S

In university I took CAD and was chastised for drawing and dimensioning items at the same time. To me, it makes more sense to draw a circle and tell the CAD system that it’s 10 mm in one fail swoop than to do it the way I was told to (draw it by “hand” approximately 10 mm then come back later and actually size it to 10 mm).

I asked why their way was better and got the answer I expected (just do it that way) :-( ).

Hong Kong Phooey (number one super guy)!

My partner wants to know: How many stitches?

You didn’t hear this from me, but I hear a lot of cubicle corners have removable caps that can make a great storage place for all kinds of interesting things.

So the Russians are “smart enough” to tell everyone that their targets are the “blank spots” on the map. That should help the Ukrainians steer clear of them 🧠!

I started on a Pr1me 550 type II learning BASIC myself. Apple ][s came out about 4 years later. Then I used them. Windows SA now.

USA here: Or people saying “Don’t work overtime, they’ll just take it all in taxes”.

Well, my marginal tax rate on income has never been 100% (yet). While there are other factors to consider if you feel working overtime is worth it or not to you personally. That is not a valid logic to use.

I’ll drink to that!

I was waiting and praying for paintballs!

Real clear what is going on here.

It’s a continuation cord. You see, the wiring works like this: The receptacle is split on both sides. The incoming power is double lugged on the bottom outlet. The outgoing power (to continue the circuit) is double lugged on the top outlet. You have to use the continuation cord to get the power from the bottom outlet to the top one.

Like I said, simple! /s

Thanks for the pictures.

What country are those from (can’t make out the markings on the meter)?

WTF is wrong with people nowadays!

^raises ^glass Here’s to many more!
