I would love to hear the reporter come back and tell us the coach sounded like he was going to eat me if I stood there any longer lmao.

I've never seen a player tear up like that. Generally the broadcast cuts away. Brutal to watch. Maybe they can hook him up with Aaron Rodgers doctor with that speedy Achilles recovery.

Now that's the Jets football team I know and love!

I'm in the same boat. Sports discussions were the only reason I used Reddit originally

Saying I don't consent to surgery isn't the best thing to say. But gosh the the doctors face... priceless

I started out the same way and now my desk is cluttered with partially completed projects and devices in various states of taken apart. But for me the fun part is learning something new along the project journey. The microcontrollers were a game changer due to their low cost. I'm not trying to fry them, but hey if I screw up who cares it was a couple bucks anyways.

For circuits I design I've mostly been having them created overseas and I'll solder on the components but I'm really curious about hacking a toaster into a refry oven or whatever their called and soldering surface mount components. Not that I need the small form factor or I'm making enough circuits to warrant trying to save on cost, I'm just curious and want to try haha. Gonna need a bigger desk...

That's a good point. An expensive qb coach but hey if he can turn Zach around... I'm not a Jets fan either. Just here for the chaos.

Jets gonna Jet. Tough break though. On the bright side he is 1-0 as the qb for the Jets, #undefeated lol.

On the bright side he's 1-0 as the NJ Jets starting QB!

There's an arcade in the center of town beneath an expensive (yet shitty) apartment complex. The arcade windows are covered but there is a sign that says "Opening Soon". It's been two years and nothing has changed externally. At first I was giving them the benefit of the doubt, but the property is expensive to rent and after 2 year I have my doubts.

What I don't understand though is if you were using the place as a front, wouldn't an arcade be a great place to launder money while your at it?

I've recently switched over to a MacBook Pro after using Windows or Linux laptops my entire life. I love that when I close the lid the laptop turns off and uses very little power. When I open it, everything is up and running again like nothing ever happend. Crazy concept I know, but coming from years of windows machines, this is a luxury.

What I can't figure out though is how do I keep the machine running when I lock it without closing the lid? I run various VPNs and have programs for work that are painfully slow to compile / start. I can't leave the thing unattended while signed in obviously in an office, but I'd love to be able to lock it while compiling and walk around / grab a drink without having to reconnect to the VPN and having to resume the compilation of programs.

At the same time, I really love that when I close the lid it goes to sleep so I'd like to keep that feature as well. Is this possible? My fellow Mac users in an office, what do you do?

I'm not sure I'd say it's completely harmless, but isn't pumping gas while the car is running generally not a huge risk?
