Why does nobody talk about how good old arcade cabinets sound?

My ears can barely even handle my phone speaker on full blast lol

I finally stopped believing the coworking space hype after 6 months in Chiang Mai

Pretty sure Laureles cafes charge more like 4000 pesos these days, not 2000.

Customer wanted me to patch a fuel line with duct tape at a gas station in Tulsa

You know duct tape has its limits, though, even if it feels like a miracle worker sometimes. (Had a buddy try to seal his tailpipe with it once, didn't end well.) It's a temporary fix for little stuff, not a real solution for anything under pressure.

Showerthought: The new Collins Pro Line 21 trainer at our hangar in Phoenix has a comms issue that makes no sense.

Wow, that's such a specific fix but it totally makes sense when you think about it. My buddy had a similar issue with his old Cessna where the radio would cut out at 5,000 feet no matter what, and after months of head scratching, a mechanic at his home field found the exact same problem @gibson.morgan described. They ended up replacing the backshell seals and the thing worked perfect for years after that, so yeah, pressure gremlins are real.

Just realized I was feeding Midjourney my own photo references when I should have been using them as style guides the whole time

The real question nobody's asking is why @king.val didn't just use a recovery tool after the first 50 images failed, seems like digital masochism at that point.
