I know you used to not be able to buy liquor until like 1p on Sundays but now you can at 9a or whatever, and last call is at 2a or 3a, I'm pretty sure it's 2a since one time I went to the store at 1:58a and the lady at the register was giving me a hard time about it Have you been drinking more because the Red Wings are done

gently caress moving. My fiancee just finished moving the last crap out of the garage. She is awesome. I'm going to turn the keys in for my old place tonight before I see Age of Ultron.  Right now I'm working on a stupid training course that has to be done for ~management~ reasons, nothing to do with need but because someone said so instead of anything relevant. The place I work has too many chiefs. Don't want to keep waiting on driveshaft for my stupid car project, which I will post about once I have it back. 155hp from a FWD Mazda is boooorrrriiiiing.

I budget upgraded from a C2D to a C2Q from oxbrain (thanks again!) a short time ago. A new rig would do swell but I can't justify it when my old beast is still getting it done. Thanks for being my enabler, though Ill remember who to direct all my solidworks questions to, as well.ilkhan posted:Congrats on being an adult and making grown up level decisions.

Have binned a lot but ebayed some and am £100 up so far  £50 of which is going on a parking fine I managed to get 2 weeks ago  Wally Joyner posted:GtaV tempted me to do the same by not only dropping dime on the game, but a new rig to play it.

I bought a new CPU, mobo and RAM for GTA V as my old one was 5 years old. Not only has it made GTA awesome but my PC is now much better for using for work....

Got a 1,1 MacBook Air (ugh, it's like steam powered though), a MINT Thinkpad (Core solo though, runs Linux pretty good) a Compaq something-or-other (AMD, fixed it up, gave it to a friend who had no computer) and just now rescued a Dell Studio 1537 out of the trash. Dude before me stickerbombed it and tore out the ram and HDD before chucking it, but I had those lying around. Gonna make a media PC out of this one I think, since it comes with HDMI out. My main Trashtop is a Dell i7 with 8gig of ram (!!) some guy threw away because the battery went bad and the hard drive was fubar. New HDD and it's good as new. Maybe one day I'll get a new battery for it, but for now it lives on my desk. Oh, also have a 1,1 Mac Pro that's running Win10 boot camped. It uses a STUPID amount of electricity though, so it's off while I decide what to do with it. beep-beep car is go fucked around with this message at 20:51 on Apr 30, 2015 |

Tusen Takk posted:I just heard back from Dassault: I got the internship Got the sim all setup in the garage then realized I need an internet connection to even launch iRacing  Thing is too drat heavy to drag over to the attached garage and 3G is too lovely at my parents house to run it through my phone. Oh well I got it setup and labelled all the cables so it will be easy next time. I'm not sure if I'm going to keep it in the E36 'cockpit' which is filthy, large and heavy. Might pull everything out and box it up then ship it to my house. Should be easy enough to weld together a basic frame. Didn't really think of it while buying it or until ~30 seconds ago but now I have a fairly decent gaming rig. Runs iRacing steady limited at 100fps supposedly.

Phone posted:The ABC Store system doesn't really suck that bad. Think about it this way, we still have vinegar based BBQ. I moved to NC from Maryland two years ago, and while there are many upsides to living in NC when compared to MD, it still tweaks my nipples that I can't go 5 minutes down the street to pick up anything I'd like from a selection of 1800 liquors, 2400 wines, 2500 beers, and 170 non-alcoholic drinks from around the world like I could up there. When a state board has to approve every liquor product sold in the state-approved stores, you don't get quite the variety you do at a regular, comparatively unregulated specialty shop. On the other hand, you can pick up beer and crappy wine from most any grocery store, so there's that.

Re: job chat, got a call back this morning from a company I interviewed with on Monday for a network administrator position, they want me to come in for a second interview with their VP of operations next week. Sounds like a pretty sweet gig, they do outsourced IT work for schools and said several times during the initial interview that a lot of my days would be working from home and they want to bring someone on board, get them up to speed and put them in charge of a team supporting a new client (sounds like a new charter school - said they have 12 locations across the state.)

Catte chat: I went to go check out some dogs at the humane society yesterday, but after considering how much of a pain in the rear end Harry is around other dogs, I've decided to get some cats to keep him occupied instead.
