I can’t believe this comedy gold is not upvoted more. Maybe it needs /s?

The two second rule is for following distance. Applying it to stopped cars makes no sense at all, but it is funny . You have it right.

My dad did the same thing. It was permanently wired to his car and we loved it. We drove cross country a few times and played the entire time.

Apparently a traffic cone is the way to go. The car will just sit there until someone removes the cone.

Money for infrastructure and money to buy the thing.

I have a gaming PC I use a lot and I have a Microsoft Surface Pro. I take my Surface everywhere and use it for everything when I am not at home. I also have an office and at the office I use a dock for my Surface. I use my phone when the job is small enough that I expect to be able to do that work in less time that it would take me to get out my Surface.

I take a lot of notes with the surface, even when working at my desk. I can draw a lot of the problems at work better than I can describe them with words and since getting the surface I have hardly touched my waycom. Being able to see my drawings on the surface while I draw is super useful.

I am in IT and I feel like I speak for the industry we don’t care. Some of my customers have regulators who make arbitrary and capricious decisions with a minimal understanding of infosec but we have to keep the customer compliant.

Break Stuff with a boner

Pretty Fly for a White Guy with a boner

You look wonderful tonight with a boner

Breaking the law with a boner

Closer with a boner

When worlds collide with a boner

This is the entire premise of No Man’s Sky.

The 1990’s DRM game. A point and click mystery game where you have to find the DRM codes printed on the back of the disk, hidden in the CD-ROM jewel case, or the specific word on the printed in the manual to unlock mini games. You might even consider scanned JPEGs of each page of the manual in the file system of the copied CD-ROM that your friend made you.

I have had to buy replacement USB-C/3.5mm jacks. I have never seen USC-C headphones but it has to be cheaper than these adapters.

This idea is so poorly conceived. Imagine installing and maintaining something like this. How are those panels supposed to stay clean?The panels and the cover should both be built but they should not be the same thing. No current panels are engineered for this application so they would have to be custom made. Just getting the project to the point where the first panel could be installed would cost millions. We could get started now installing commercially available shade covers and ground mounted solar. Ground mounted solar is simple to clean, simple to maintain, and simple to replace.

I agree the idea looks like a great way to reclaim the space, reduce evaporation, and generate power I just think the money would be better spent on a plan the optimized for expenses and longevity instead of optimizing for novelty.

It would be cheaper and easier to maintain separate instaaleions of a lightweight cover for the aquaduct and solar panel installed on solid ground. You could use the same money to add square miles of panels.

That’s pretty much it.

Show up. Ask them to come when you do things. No matter what they are asking you to do you show up. Make room for them in your life too, every time you have room in your car let them know it would be great if they filled that seat. After enough time spent together you will have a much better grasp of what invitations mean something to them. You will also figure out when you actually want to be alone and when you would like to have company.
