I'm asking for less hours starting next week

 

[alfa147x]

Not going to quite but I'll slowly give up all of my hours till I have next to non

So let's see... it was not actively raining, but it was misting and raining in local areas. The pavement was obviously slick and wet, but I noticed no visible puddles. The radius of the semicircle traveled by the turn was approximately 50', the turn was 90 degrees.

Off throttle from 40, down to about 37-38 at turn-in. Bring the wheel in for a fast turn, enough to feel body roll and lean on dry pavement. Turn sweeps maybe 30 degrees before the tires go, rear tires clearly moving right at a faster than than the front. I did not notice any TCS lights, but I was busy watching the grass off to the right edge, and keeping the wheel exactly in its position.

Turn ended right where it should, so it was really a small loss of traction. Definitely interesting, and makes me want to go try that some more... although someplace where there isn't dirt and grass nearby.

Ideally, I'd land in a hybrid position where I manage projects and do some of the technical work to fill in. And all from home, too. 😀

 

[MotF Bane]

I completely agree with you




Lol no not at all. Current build quality goes like this

Samsung > htc / motorola

I'm sitting here squeezing my phone, and all that's happened is the two edges of the case have moved about .1 mm relative to each other.

My cousin, who was a programmer at Microsoft, is working for a local IT consulting company now and is actually here at my company working a project. That was one of the companies I was going to hit up soon.

Sorry they all feel like something someone put together in a garage out of 90s amalgamated computer parts. The plastic is so creaky its horrifying. D:

err, what exactly do you do with your phone? put it in a vice?

 

[MotF Bane]

Test in Circuit Theory upcoming, but I don't know exactly when. I think it's Monday, shit.

 

[MotF Bane]

Physics test is about 10 days away.

That's just unacceptable. It ages poorly. Heck I bet it would creak all by itself if set on a table here left to its own devices. Poseidon is getting angry today!

 

[alfa147x]

i am glad I bought a kurig

 

[IndyColtsFan]

need food

uh that's too much...

 

[IndyColtsFan]

Do I: a) cook food I brought b) go to company cafeteria or c) order Jimmy John's

Wait, a phone that doesn't creak and flex is unacceptable? Read it again, CASE, as in the Seidio Surface II shell I put on the phone. Shall I remove the case and test this again?

keurig.... I don't drink enough coffee to keep any around. K-cups dont go bad

 

[MotF Bane]

What does one expect from a two part case? Again, CASE, it's not factory.

Fine, I'll pull the case off, to satisfy you two Android haters.

When I get to the office I'll squeeze the jesus out of all the phones we have. I'll report back 😛

My wife's grandma is very cheap and apparently my in-laws went over to her house and found out that she brews a pot of coffee and drinks it over the course of 3 days. She just leaves the pot sitting on her countertop. WTF?!?!

 

[Rubycon]

I thought the purpose of having a thermosetting case was durability so you did not need a case to protect it! That's like wearing a raincoat - over top a raincoat! :biggrin:

If they weep be sure to avoid the juice - it's hazardous. 😛

 

[MotF Bane]

Okay, case is off. Attempting to crush phone.

 

[IndyColtsFan]

Yes, they have this space-age device called a microwave. 2 per floor, one at each end.

looks like gaddafi bought it
