Mind blown... just met a 20 years girl and she was born in 1997.... whoa?!?! O_O I feel old...
- Ha, you should get out more Pangorobthelad
- wrong kind of, blown.Gnash
- Keep it real.studderine
- holy shit, I graduated high school in '97monospaced
- My daily life does not include people younger than 25... did not know 20 years old existed... lolpango

- You dog!pango
- Only when in heat ;-0!mugwart
- Was she cute?bainbridge
- Yes. And she still got that innocence you don't see in 30 years old people. I felt so much smarter around her. Lolpango

How much work can a person actually do on a car? A neighbor has a Honda S2000 that he takes to a track and races, and he seems to be tinkering with it in the garage almost every night. That wouldn't be so odd if he were racing it every day, but he's not. Yet he's adjusting something in the engine constantly, then revving it, then maybe driving off and I'll hear it accelerating down the street.
I don't know what he's doing to it so often.
- escaping his wife or husband?uan
- I'm the same with code!mugwart
- We've got a neighbor, down the street, that works everyday (included sat and sun) on his motorbikes (honda and ducati), cars (porsche and 205 rally)...OBBTKN
- You never ever will see him with his wife or kid out, never go on vacations, taking beers with friends, dining out... it's sadOBBTKN
- I call him "cabeza de tornillo"OBBTKN
- Teh horsepowers!section_014
- back in the day i'd change my oil and tires once every 2 weeks, drop the motor every few months, racing takes a tollmoldero
- He's posted on his car-racing forum "I have a neighbour that watches me when im tinkering with my S2000 ... it's sad."microkorg

I barely use my landline, having one solely for broadband access.
Just checked my bank and was a but stunned to see it being £50 more than normal, so logged in to check.
Difference is primarily made up by two phonecalls to Europe, each less than half an hour.
£40.
Forty. Fucking. Pounds. To send [what I think is, having just worked out] 19Mb of data within Europe, from a fixed subscription, not roaming or anything.
I fucking hate BT.
- Butt-Stunned™detritus
- data - landline? confused.comfadein11
- What do you think phonelines use? It's been decades since switches and direct connections. I assumed a 64kilobit per second ratedetritus
- ah so you are talking about a straight phonecall - I got confused as you mentioned data used in the call. Yep avoid landlines for europe at all costs - mobilefadein11
- is prob cheaperfadein11

Been a freelance artist for a couple of months now. It was a good hustle, with some busy days and then there are days when there's not much going on. On the plus side, I got my first art rep and procreate will be featuring my work in the upcoming weeks. Seeing how far this goes, and hopefully it becomes steady. If things don't work out, at least I can go back to design.

Anyone here listen to Howard Stern? It's been years since I paid any attention, but we got a new car that came with 3 months of SiriusXM and I've found my way his two channels pretty often the past couple weeks. It's probably been since 1998 that I last listened, when he was still on regular radio.
It's pretty amazing to see that it's still the same old thing... interviews, goofing on staff members, etc. and I don't mean that in a bad way.
- I used to listen religiously up until about 5 years ago and then didn't feel like paying so much to listen. I miss listening though.capn_ron
- same here till i moved to mx, caught a few extra months till i let my sirius expire, BABABOUIEmoldero
- That's exactly what happened to me. new car last September, 3 months free SiriusXM and listened to Stern show till that ran out.Ramanisky2

I feel old when I talk to people who mention having cell phones and FB in High School. Now kids have phones.

- Yeah but those holiday deals on Teletext. Come on!MrT
- I didn't even have teletext - that was a treat for me when I came back to visit family in the UK... I was in awe of it (all 4½ pages of 'computer news')detritus
- ^ Yeah, i first saw it on my gran's tv. Shit was amazing - like that slit scan/stargate scene from 2001.face_melter

How did the philippines thread get bumped? Last post was 5 years ago.

Our interns started today.
Mine - that I hired - is ready to take on the world, all set up with a nice clean desk and a new laptop filled with software.
The 3 mobile iOS developers that the dev team was tasked with hiring show up, have no where to sit, and are given PCs.
This accurately sums up the state of things here.
- I noticed you used the words 'intern' and 'hired' in the same sentence... are they paid interns?PonyBoy
- They are. I don't believe it's much but it's a nice incentive.kona
- nice... and lol @ giving iOS developers PCs :DPonyBoy
- I know... SMHkona
- Our interns are hired, but get tasked with the most mundane shit. Makes me fucking rage. My former colleague was employed to learn arch-viz work...face_melter
- ...she helped me with projects, 3D, post - the whole bit, v. talented. An architect told her to go to the post office to collect her mail! Fucking bitch.face_melter
- giving iOs devs PC -> if you are smart enough to solve this problem we will give you everything what you pick at an apple storested
- lol stedkona
