  • I have had a “biohazard” call at a local college.

    The platen glass is a lot thinner than it looks!

    Also, depending on the model of the copier, it will not let you copy money, and if you attempt it too many times, it will literally brick the machine.

    Something cool to do is to take your phone and turn on the selfie camera. Lay that on the platen and make a copy to see a trippy pattern.

    If you want to screw with someone, lay a single paperclip on the platen and make a bunch of copies of it. Take your copies and shuffle them into the paper tray face up (assuming you’re using an office laser copier) so every once in a while, someone will get a paper clip on their print.

    I grew up as the “IT guy” in small town America.

    This guy, and the people here (not you) sound like a lot of people I know. I’d look for a different job and grow your passion somewhere else. It isn’t worth it. You won’t change them, and they’re just going to make you feel like you’re wrong, even though you’re right. It’s like the movie Idiocracy.




  • Man, I saw one 2 weeks ago up close.

    Its such a fingerprint magnet, it’s not even funny. The owner was using it just like a normal pickup and normal things you do with pickups were causing serious wear and tear that should take years. The buttons for the bed cover feel cheap and like they’re going to break. There’s no way they’ll stand up to California sun. The front quarter panel corner is SHARP. There are lots of sharp corners that are very capable of causing harm.

    I always look at everything with a “how could I fix this if it breaks” mind, and the cybertruck just drives me nuts. It’d be impossible to fix
