Phineas and Ferb + McGyver

Well, I made it up, I didn’t copy it from somewhere. In other words, I’m contributing OC, here…

People are, understandably, so tired of both blockchain and LLM “news”, that posts on the topic will gather a lot of downvotes by the mere mention of it, even the few ones that are insightful and interesting, as opposed to the usuall techbro shill.

Alphane_Moon just convinced me to take out a huge loan with my house as security, and invest in Eutelsat. I suggest everyone else does the same.

Not legal. Nor will there be any repercussions. This is the Goya spectacle all over again, just even more so.

But hey, maybe the morons will buy EVs to “own the libs” instead of rolling coal.

How did she take it?

You Could be Mine was the perfect choice for the moped scene.

No need to go poop anymore. It’s definitely a big plus to not have an asterisk.

No time-delay for inputting the numbers, ability to process any calculation (which calculators can’t), and no need to carry an actual calculator around.

A few off the top of my head:
Destiny Potato - Lun
Dream Theater - Scenes from a Memory
A Perfect Circle - Mer de Noms
Theatre of Tragedy - Aegis

A flexible job is one thing. But a job that requires a flexible person is something else entirely. Kevin is paid quite handsomely for his willingness to pack his gear and fly halfway around the world to do his thing on short notice.

Let me tell you a short story about Kevin.

He had the same realization, so he went to trade school to avoid the parts of education that involved a lot of studying in the traditional sense. So he ended up as a decent welder.

Fast forward a few “normal” jobs where he couldn’t quite fit because of the everyday drudgery of working either as a maintenance man or a factory worker, doing the same things over and over: He ended up applying to a job where the tag line was basically “no days are the same”

He started working with sea fastening. You know those ships with a large superstructure in front of a completely flat back deck? His employer was in charge of all sorts of fittings and welds onboard ships so that containerized systems could be easily mounted in a secure manner.

And said company was usually contracted by my former AND current employer to do the sea fastening aspect of mobilization.

And yes, Kevin is a real person. And as soon as I see his name on the personnel list, I know it’s all going to go well and be a lot of fun while we’re at it. Kevin and I have been drunk on all continents together. (Well, except from Antarctica… so far). Be it occupying a Texas BBQ joint for an entire day while doing the layout planning from there, or chilling (literally) in a Singapore pool after a long days work.

Oh yes, ADHD… he mentioned that he probably wouldn’t have ended up where he was without it. I’m not saying his situation is universally transferable, but it’s all about finding ones element.

His only ADHD-related failing that I’ve noticed is that he usually struggles with airports. But that’s fine - we usually park our asses in a quiet airport lounge anyway.

At least you seem to have self awareness and insight, which is more than most people.
