Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

Deleted my posts so I don't trigger more people.

The word “trigger” is probably just as triggering as anything you said in those posts.

@Morpheel well somehow people have to grow a thicker skin right?

@NintendoByNature Well it depends if a position opens. Odds of that now are very low. I knew going in I wouldnt get it, but wanted to see why they'd do that.

Plus, they know I'm dedicated and have a lot of the knowledge. The team already leans on me a lot. However, I question if its worth putting the effort in to support the two new managers I have. It's in their hands now, no longer do I need to concern myself with keeping things running.

@Zuljaras Yeah. Lest they delete their posts after being called out.

Hah. Let’s move on.

@Zuljaras - I’d probably have the back of anyone in this thread, or anyone in real life for that matter, if someone suddenly swooped in and called them what you called Anti. That stuff doesn’t happen much in real life though, because consequences. It’s more of a chicken ish internet thing. After all, we can always delete our posts, pretend like it didn’t happen, and act like our offensive name calling “triggered” people instead of apologizing for being a rude ahole. At any rate, I think I’ve learned enough about you today to know I’m not interested in conversing with you.

@bimmy-lee that is fair enough. As others said lets move on.

I'm just glad it's Friday guys and gals. What a horrible work week. Working on this big project with a customer where everything seems to be going wrong. I can't wait til the end of the day

@NintendoByNature the terrible working week ended for me 15 mins ago. Now I can't wait for E3.

@Zuljaras thanks for the reminder. E3 starts tomorrow morning for me. I Should be able to stream everything on YouTube i assume. Even though there probabaly won't be any announcements of new dlc or games, I'll watch the smash, splatoon and mm2 tournaments.

When was Nintendo’s presentation?

@NintendoByNature I have not seen the schedule. Tomorow are only tournaments and stuff?

@Morpheel
Tuesday at 12 pm ET

Oh ok so 10 am here, thanks!

@Zuljaras yea j think Nintendo tournaments only but I could surely be wrong

Been slammed at work today. Seems I missed a bit; Anti has the goods on Pikmin 4, Morph was gifted spicy meatballs, Bimmy and NES are talking yard tools (love it), NbN got eaten by a customer, and Knuckles is waiting for the robot overlords. Whew, I’m caught up.
Sorry about the promo, Knuckles. Though it seems like that’d be a poo supervisor to be under if that’s a reason he hired someone else.

@NEStalgia - It was a friend’s DeWalt. I like that brand. Everything I’ve bought from them seems built for the long haul. I’ve heard electric is 1:1 power with gas at this point. It was a string fed head, so maybe I would have better luck with the bladed head. I’ll probably end up getting sales pitched today because I haven’t done much research. I’ll look for the wandering old man who works at my Home Depot who seems to know everything about everything.

@HobbitGamer - You nailed it. The last two summaries of this thread have been hilarious. “Meandering” doesn’t even begin to describe it.

@NEStalgia I would never put that kind of money in a car brand, Ducati or a Hayabusa sure but a Ferrari...lol no.

I just got unlucky with my little Tacoma.

Also I am ready for Tuesday. I took the day off. (I won't be game shopping that day now but oh well). Gonna put on my zelda pjs and game all day (I usually study/freelance work on my days off but not this time! It's been a stressful month already lol.)

@bimmy-lee What battery did it use? There's two or 3 lines from DeWalt now. They ahve the 18/20v that takes the standard drill battery. That's more average/typical consumer power (but better build and performance.) Then there's the dual-battery 36v, and then the 40v stuff. 40v is a big huge block battery a little smaller than a gas engine. That has the 1:1 power. Now they have 60v stuff (and even some 100v stuff....actual AC voltage from a DC battery....scary powerful stuff, not priced for mere mortals.) And brushless matters.

I have a Makita 36v. Takes 2 18v drill batteries. Great compromise between power, weight, convenience to just pull my drill batteries. But I have a DeWalt 40v pole saw & hedge trimmer. That thing is quite industrial (and obscenely heavy/dangerous.) The trimmer can shred a spruce like it's not there. The saw melts oak.

@Ryu_Niiyama For the price for parts, I'm pretty sure you spelled "Tesla" wrong.

@NEStalgia LOL you are so mean, too soon dude, too soon. LOL

Since yall are talking tools, anybody got a small planer? I'm a hand tool girl myself, but I want to make a few endgrain cutting boards and I aside from the workout, I don't think it is worth it to plane them by hand.
