I haven't watched season 4 yet, after the first season it doesn't really fall into 'must see tv' anymore, where I'd bother to tune in on a weekly basis. It must be a minority opinion, but similarly, I hated season 2, and actually thought season 3 was a fun watch. I think viewed as a totally different, and not-so-serious sci-fi action series, it was okay.


You can use the Sun Type 7 USB keyboard which has a diamond symbol super key. Under Windows it functions as the Win key. Plus it has application keys on the left had side.


I work for an old, but small pro-audio manufacturer, and I just started watching AudioScienceReview's YouTube videos. Amazing stuff. I love his commitment to the consumer end, audiophile products, actually testing out many of these, with industry standard test-equipment and test procedures that we use.


There's also DECUServe for the VMS experience.

That was one of my favorite SNL episodes. Really interesting to learn about how much work was behind this. It really showed in the final product.


The section of the book where he sends Marion off to get money from Arnold, is some of the most haunting writing I've ever come across. The book is truly amazing. I've never come across another novel to so aptly relate the feelings of addiction.


The modern Comsol GUI is truly phenomenal, especially considering where it was at with the 3.x versions. It's one of the rare cases, pretty much the only one I can think of in CAD/CAM, where the effort put into a radical GUI redesign really paid off significantly and immediately.


Twitter does in fact still reset it all the time, at least on my account. I'll notice it when I run into a bunch of those recommended tweets/follows, which don't appear in the chronological feed. edit but it has been much better recently than it was when the new UI was first released.


I have a good friend, ex-Navy submariner, and highly competent industrial technician. He's been driving for Doordash since 2019 now, because he just can't ever make it work with any kind of management in a typical corporate or small-business environment. I'm sure he'd be much more productive as a consultant, in his field of expertise if there were an app for that, but for him, the gig-econonmy, accepting all its down sides, is the preferable way to earn money. I've found it really interesting, that he would accept 2-4x pay reduction, just to be relieved of certain areas of responsibility and accountability.


another Deliverator.


The greatest part about eBay for me, is that it actively encourages you to network with a set of vendors, and develop a level of trust. That's just something I've never got from Amazon.


I have repeat purchased from vendors on eBay for different items based on previous experiences. eBay makes that easy - Amazon is the complete opposite. They hide the vendor as much as possible.


Amazon is the primary seller on its site. eBay has never been a seller
