1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

As long as it’s got four wheels and a complaint engine, they’ll let it be registered

 

Don’t enable him!

 

I bought more engine bling for the chevy, lots of ARP fasteners.

 

@Kwikvette

This is what I did as well, after suggestions from the welding thread.

 

With how much time I've spent in front of a computer for the last several years, I'm surprised I've never had any issues like carpal tunnel. A few people in my family have it pretty badly and don't spend 1/3 of the time I do on the computer, I don't even think their jobs require much of it.

The one thing I do get concerned about are my eyes, I can feel the strain it puts on them after a particularly long week. Blue light glasses help but I can't do much editing with them on since it puts a yellow hue over everything.

 

We'll see if this does same thing as a nice fresh jalapeno.

 

Posture and ergonomics is everything. If I'm not careful with the mouse, my wrist will hurt in a couple of days and it'll bother me for a week. I pretty much avoid using the scroll wheel and try not to mouse with my wrist.

 

I wonder if me using a Wacom tablet all the time instead has anything to do with it, hmm. I never use a mouse

 

my sinuses are envious

 

That's exactly what I was thinking, except only one side of the square tube on the receiver would be against the flat bottom.

 

I cut the receiver tube into the bumper for more clearance and so I could get more weld to stick the 2 together.

 

Both might give you liquid fire morning constitutionals

 

Yeah that helps for sure, pens are more ergonomic. I switch to a tablet on occasion to switch it up a bit.

 

Fwiw, this is about the only brand of jerky I like. The salt and black pepper flavor is awesome. Was really happy to find it at the local farm store.

 

With jerky you really do get what you pay for. And it sucks because jerky is exorbitantly expensive when you compare the cost to how little you're getting, especially with the good stuff.

But cheap jerky sucks a fat one that's for sure, like eating a dog treat or something.

 

dehydrated steak aint cheap. Best is when u get an elk and make jerky out of it, miss when my dad would make it for us as kids

 

looked at my door jam on a whim yesterday and saw my truck was made in cali, kinda cool

 

All 1st gens were made at the Nummi plant in Fremont, CA.. now its a Tesla factory iirc

 

AH that makes more sense now. IIRC the carfax said this truck started in florida. Was made in cali, shipped there, bought and brought back here. thank you for clearing my ignorance

 

I think using a mouse for all of these years has taken more of a toll on my right shoulder than anywhere else. I had to get my right rotator cuff reworked a few years back. I understand Wacom tablets are a big help.

I'm thankful that my wrists have held up to running a keyboard for now over 41 years without getting carpal tunnel.
