Ahh yes, it's the linux fan boys who are upset about a feature being removed in Windows.

Nah, as a cracker ass American I think I will celebrate Lunar New Year and immerse myself in the lore and customs of people I share this plant with because history rocks my fucking socks.

Sup, I'm your local friendly USDA contractor who very much uses scales everyday. Consumer grade kitchen scales are terrible and will lie to you. The fact that it does not go out to the tenths or hundredths is a big flag for accuracy.

We check test our scales twice a year to make sure they are accurate. I once tried check testing my kitchen scale I use for canning for giggles and it failed miserably. It would only register weight on 2 out of 4 quadrants until I got to 10g or so. I'm sure my ohaus is going to show a different and more accurate result if I where to try it.

USDA contractor here, we use metric on the scales we use day to day.

Yeah if you consider $100-$180 a month "decent income"

Interesting. I'll check it out.

Edit: Lol I absolutely love them (I love old houses) but fuck HOA's and the price. Not to mention I couldn't see acreage listed anywhere or I could just be to stoned and missed it.

How many acres of land though? This could just be a hunting cabin for all we know.

I'm so glad that I subscribed to netflixs DVD rental service. I would get stuff in the mail, rip the disks with handbrake, and send back. Repeat. Torrents where a no go with a 5gb a month satellite ISP.

Lol no, I drive a 2011 GMC Serria 2500HD in rural Michigan, USA and my truck would have no problem going up that. In fact my driveway goes up a hill that is far taller than the one shown and most of the time I don't even have to turn on 4 wheel drive. I don't even have snow tires as my all terrains work just fine (as a former autotech I do highly recommend snow tires though). For the weight distribution, yes, but that's also why we throw weight in the bed over the rear axle which solves that real easy.

The problem with the cyber truck is it was designed by people who don't use trucks for a techbro demographic who don't need trucks.

The cloud is just someone else's computer. I thank fuck all the time that I bothered to learn Linux, that time sink has opened so many badass doorways like learning how to set up nextcloud or NFS or Samba and hosting my own cloud in my basement.
