Yeah I'll have to download a copy of Win 7 to USB since I have a legit key anyways. Does anyone else hate old video games besides me? My roommates are on vacation this week and have been camped out in the living room 24/7 with their N64 playing all these old games that look like dog poo poo with tons of wires everywhere. Ugh.

My wife was reading about some sort of autoimmune thing that makes cats' teeth fall out. Hopefully Idiot Cat doesn't have that, but we'll see.

You're looking for a VTL, not a vertical mill. Vertical Turning Lathes spin large parts with the axis of rotation being vertical. Vertical mills have the parts stationary and the spindle of the machine turns and it's axis of rotation is up and down. There are of course exceptions, but you're looking for a VTL. e: not a VTL, but CNC programming can be tricky... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_2HIUa3puk Those were some loving aggressive cuts, omg.

um excuse me posted:Just applied to a manufacturing position at Tesla. It's more like buying a lottery ticket to me, but a guy can dream.  I did the same thing a few months ago for the HR Director job at the Gigafactory. Essentially, yeah it'd be pretty bad rear end, but it's snowballs chance in hell territory. I am finally getting some call backs for interviews lately though, 2016 is shaping up to be significantly profitable. glyph posted:Found it. But the video isn't loading for me. Balls.

Slavvy posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqPClltS5k8 I love the music, but I'm disappointed that the best Mustang that they could come up with for that video was a bone-stock '65 (64-1/2?) 289. Not even a Mach One? I always imagine a modded '69 or '70 fastback when I hear the song, either period with like AR Torq-Thrusts or Cragars and N60s, or more modern Pro Touring. kastein posted:HOLY gently caress. No poo poo. That was scary. I'd have bought the machine though, because after all that, the only damage was cosmetic! BloodBag posted:You're looking for a VTL, not a vertical mill.

In the related vids to the above: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4Ok0LQx0Uc That's a big lathe. Tax refund came in. Most of it is going towards my wife's student loans to defray deferred interest, but I requested $500 for a decent tool box. Costco just dropped the price on their 42" two-piece by $100 to $499. Perfect. It's no Snap-On, but it'll do.

I'm going to replace the dead auto tranny in my 92 chevy s-10 2wd 4.3l v6 truck. I've never done anything like it before, but the truck isn't worth enough to pay to have a new tranny done, so I'm just saying "gently caress it" and going for it. Worthy of its own thread?

Tide posted:i made it to 40 before i started getting a little thin in the back. and it's been driving me loving bananas. but today, while i was getting a haircut, i just kind of said 'gently caress it, it is what is is.' I have very little grey, except my crappy poo poo, I'm almost jealous. Just in the last two years my temples have gone to entirely grey, and my hair is rapidly going to salt and pepper, but that doesn't bother me. No, it's the 4" long single white hairs in my goddamn beard that drive me nuts.

glyph posted:Still my favorite crash video. That endmill was at the perfect feed&speed for that depth of cut and material. I love that sound and could listen to it all day. There's dudes at the shop that have been there for 30+ years. They'll load&touch off their parts, hit cycle start and sit back in their chair with their eyes closed and just listen. They'll occasionally open an eye and fiddle with the feed rate, and then go back to listening. These are guys cutting API threads, just sitting there listening. For perspective, the younger guys fuss and fret all day about getting their setups just right, check out 7 gauges to check one thread and go way over time on the job, and still aren't qualified to cut an API cutback. Whenever one of the old salty dogs retires he takes such a huge depth and breadth of knowledge with him.

Any UK goons know of a spot I can go rally passenger joyriding? Obviously not opposed to driving, but I'm a total novice so the pucker factor might be better if I'm riding shotgun. Also, dope stuff to do in the greater isles? I'm going to be there for 10 or 11 days with a GIRL in August. Still in the early planning stages of the trip, so Ireland, Scotland, Wales, England, Isle of Man are all on the table.

Somehow I don't have a massive bruise after falling over on the trials bike yesterday onto a big rear end rock, still hurts like hell though. Running out of fuel part way through a double blip onto a boulder. Switched to reserve which I found out is only good for another couple hundred feet of technical trail. Then pushed it ~150ft up the trail to the service road where luckily someone rode by on an ATV with a tow strap. Ordered a fuel bottle and tow strap when I got home, don't want to go through that crap again.
