K_Kinnison Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Snoll, you did it backwards. Should have had the rights to the copter BEFORE you started working on it. not after. Tho i bet the result would have been the same in the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zargon Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Was at the AIA convention in D.C. today. Man, everything's on the cloud now. But no one can tell me what the cloud even is, or why I should care. They only know that I NEED IT NOW NOW NOW GO GO GO. its just clusters of servers acting as one I was at a MS event last thursday (17th) on the new cloud stuff, especially the 'private cloud' and Azure, basically an internal cloud cluster than hits MS's public cloud when you reach capactiy, its pretty neat stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in my day, "cloud computing" meant "distributed computing". It seems marketing people have taken over the term and used it as a snazzier word for "network resources" now.

Keyan Farlander Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 Got a wheel bearing replaced on my car. Now they are telling me I should replace the drive shaft for $950 because of a noise they are hearing that I brought it in for twice (while it was under warranty) that they were unable to fix both times. F. That. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edlib Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Got a wheel bearing replaced on my car. Now they are telling me I should replace the drive shaft for $950 because of a noise they are hearing that I brought it in for twice (while it was under warranty) that they were unable to fix both times. F. That.Yeah... I asked the guy at my shop to check my tire 6 months ago, and he told me they were fine. "Another couple of years, easy..." Last month after I had that spring replaced, the same guy told me I should get all 4 replaced ASAP!!! PRIORITY ONE!!! OMG!!!!!! Uhhh... yeah. It's not really high on my list of things at the moment. So: Either he never looked at them 6 months ago and lied to me... or he's just looking for more business. Either way, if they do get replaced anytime soon, it won't be at that shop.

K_Kinnison Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I have a mechanic that I trust with my life. and has never let me down or tried to scam me. in fact, I had trouble with my car dying while driving, and even being hard to start. my mechanic found out it was faulty crank shaft sensor that cost $50.

edlib Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I used to use a guy like that with my Audi. The only problem with him was that he also owned and ran a semi-pro race team... So of his season was going well, it might be days before he would look at my car. He had it locked up in his garage for well over a week one time while he was out west somewhere, and I couldn't get ahold of him. But he did great work for cheap when he was around. But just not reliable enough to trust with a car I now need every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyan Farlander Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 A good mechanic is more valuable than a good woman. Well, no it's not, but that sounded like something a manly man would say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edlib Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I have entirely too much spare time. I'll take some! Being in a relationship (with kids involved...) on top of my already crazy work hours, as well as being the sole provider/ caretaker of an elderly parent makes me long for the days when I could honestly bitch about not having enough to do to in my spare time keep my mind occupied.

edlib Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 The GF was busy with work all day yesterday, so I spent part of the day playing on the XBox, and got to level 26 in Skyrim. About halfway through the main storyline quest, I think. Gonna try to get down to the Cape for the afternoon today. Maybe we'll stay over, and try to get back early tomorrow. I imagine the traffic coming back tonight will be BRUTAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
