A 3 is what my helmet gives me for grinding mode, that’s nothing.

I used a 10 or 11 for one eclipse and it worked alright.

Electric kettle or stovetop? Important distinction!

But how can we trust that your Standardized Banana is standardized to the correct standard? Has it been certified?

I don’t want no Metric Standard Banana (MSB).

They’ll find that most of the peeps keeping the automation from turning itself inside out are also workers, and currently not amused in many cases.

He can pair it to the phone app or whatever on his device then; his fridge, his problem.

How many of your machines use Comic Sans font on the operator touchscreen?

And how many times has someone had to pull the PLC programming to resize the button clip art jpegs to fix and overlap that caused the machine to run 2 different functions at the same time if they tapped too close to one side?

This is the best take I’ve seen yet, with the benefit that it’s literally already been done.

It’d be interesting to see what would happen if they tried to mandate this now, but I’m sure it’s already too late.

Not US.

Never heard of 100% taxing here, what I have seen is raises and promotions ending up in a slightly smaller paycheque. Whether that’s due to other factors such as a higher misaligned bracket of state medical insurance or benefits, union fees, I’m not entirely sure, it was more of a warning to watch your first couple of paycheques after a raise.

I just did front brakes on my mk4 Jetta…. in the middle of a west coast snowfall, aka “the world is ending, just like last year!”

Simpler, cleaner design than industrial equipment, and that stuff is made to be worked on by gorillas like me. Actual work time was less than shoveling it out of 14” of falling snow.

All hail the manual shitbox!

Honestly, there’s going to be a hard peak to how fast a 3D printer can go, because physics. Unless we start running prints in a vacuum and start tuning local gravity….

Don’t forget that the autotip screens usually calculate that percentage after tax, which is wrong, and make it a pain in the ass to tip a percentage on pre-tax like it’s supposed to be done, so they’re dishonestly wringing even more cents out of you!
