Usually I see them go out due to brief power flashes and none of them have even a CMOS battery -esque setup where it can simply retain the time during a power interruption, which is likely a result of your point.

It’s ok, i see at least one hardhat

Archive.is usually works for me

Hours upon hours of pain and farts

I’d certainly hope so, but the idiots that I have the unfortunate necessity of dealing with are way too dense to make that connection.

Cept for that mall ninja junk, that stuff’s just silly.

Unfortunately, showing a brick to a fascist’s face will likely just reinforce their bullshit. Still effective though.

Genuine question, where else can you find a slew of car repair videos?

Those $10 slots can get ya

You do see how that’s a terrible idea, right?

I’ve been using Valvoline, but I bring my own oil and filter, and they actually do use a torque wrench on everything I can tell. It’s $60 (with coupon) for my 6.7 that I also have them rotate my tires, I’m in and out in 30 min, and I don’t have to dispose of the oil. Just turn down the the other services, especially the air filter (that I typically replace while I’m waiting in line), and they’re not too bad. I just wish they’d do my fuel filters, but LiAbIlItY.

They probably have a really good tax guy, especially if they’re making that much. Average is typically 15-30%, and it usually depends on how you go about your taxes. Depending on deductions, especially if you own a business, and the more you can pay a (high level) tax guy, the less you pay in taxes. It really do be like that.

Personal income, and even business income, absolutely agreed (my personal for the year was $10k or just shy of 10%, my corp tax was about $900, not bad at all). It’s the other nickel and dimeing CA is famous for. Fuel taxes, property taxes because home values are now sky high, DMV fees, and then all your municipal taxes, and then all your varied county/municipal sales taxes, and plenty of others I’m not thinking of right now, and of which added together are exorbitant compared to other states. Now, don’t get me wrong, you certainly get what you pay for in terms of great weather and good quality of life compared to other states, as well as many other benefits, but let’s not pretend for a second that California isn’t a fucking expensive place to live. I was born and raised here, I’ve lived elsewhere, and I am not leaving, but absolutely California is pricey.

In California, yes. Moreso because taxes keep rising but services keep dwindling.

It also allows IT depts to deploy thin clients for a fraction of the cost of a full desktop (along with the crap performance for actual multitasking).
