What about the roads, who will pay for the roads?

It’s still all Greek to me

Unless I’m the mush are sending me to another plane of existence, no thanks. Milk is pretty good though.

I’m not even a weeb I just think mushrooms are nasty.

I’d rather bust my nut on a waifu figurine than eat mushrooms and milk for breakfast.

Yeah that’s fair, I personally love it especially back cracks.

You’re good

Donald Unger, a doctor who received the Medicine Prize for cracking the knuckles of his left hand – but not his right – for sixty years to see if the habit contributes to arthritis (it didn’t)

It was nice at first, now it’s really boring.

I live in British Columbia, you don’t scare me with your story of drug addicts, hippies driving Subaru’s, and no chance of ever moving from my parents basement.

Is there a youdontsurf community yet?

Save on archeology assessments by not having any remains.

Modern problems and all that.

Public servant here, the city I live in isn’t hiring and when they do it’s extremely competitive, think 150+ applications for one position. The city I work for is an hour away and I’ve been doing the drive for two years. I can’t move closer due to lack of rentals and what is available is too expensive (I saw a 2br for 3100 this morning) and they won’t rent to me because of pets (why bother when there is someone without pets who is willing to pay 60% of their salary, less risk for your “investment”). Can’t buy because I can’t afford 600k for a starter home with how crazy interest rates are right now I would be looking at a 3k/month mortgage.

I could try adjacent work closer to home, but there isn’t much and it would be a pay cut even accounting for gas. Also no viable transit option available unless I want to leave my house at 5 and get home at 7.

So far I’ve been able to get 1 wfh day, 2 or 3 would be nice but I need to be in office to deal with the public.

For highway lowering the speed may be effective but lowering the speed limit from 50 to 30 won’t stop drivers from going 50 unless the road is designed for lower speeds. So long as lanes are wide and there are little obstructions for drivers to worry about hitting, such as bumpouts, boulevards, etc., they will go as fast as they feel comfortable unless there is a cop behind them.

Edit: 50kmh to 30kmh I don’t know what that is in freedom miles

Loved that megazord. That was one of the very first santa gifts I can remember back when I was little. Played the shit outta that thing.

Yeah, no, to save space they didn’t come on pallets, we would have to load them onto pallets and get them off the truck. Not sure who had the worse job, me or the Chinese guy on the other end losing the truck.

I used to work with this old guy named Mel in my early twenties at a graveyard job in a cold storage warehouse doing freight handling. He would bike to work 20 km down a dark highway to get to our shift at 1 am, he owned a car just preferred to bike, which I respect. This guy was in his 70s, consumed nothing but a cheese sandwich for lunch, coffee, and smoked heavily. Despite this he was in seemingly great shape and was fastest, hardest worker in the whole place. At Christmas time we would unload 20 lbs boxes of mandarin oranges from 53 foot trailers packed top to bottom, front to back onto pallets, this guy would go faster by himself than two people. He always said it’s just about the technique and how you position your body.

I knew him in my early twenties before going back to school and he was the only person at that job with a brain so we talked a lot about space and technology and all that. I moved away for school so it’s been like 13 years since I last saw him so I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s dead given his age and how much he smoked but I always wondered what happened to him and if he’s still kicking around. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if this guy made it to 100.

The alternate start screen is a good start, but I need more before I spend my money.

Maybe look into GIS work and try to get on with a municipality or regional government. Not sure how it is in the US but in Canada there are plenty of GIS jobs open all over the country, it’s easy enough work if you have a good understanding of (I think) Python. Plus maps are fun, at least I think they are.

Just to add to this, if you’re interested the main program I see being used is ArcGIS. QGIS is another program that’s similar but free and open source and good to practice on to get the basics of spatial mapping down, but there are some things that are different between the two that is not a 1:1 transfer of skills.

Thanks for doxxing me, now I gotta delete me account.
