    My old roommate would write his papers in college with text to speech on his phone into the MS Word app. And he wouldn’t correct any mistakes.

    Did he also eat babies for breakfast? Steal bingo cards from old ladies? Pour gasoline on a burning man? Sounds like a monster.

    My Calc 1 professor told us every math professor from then on would require it.


    No one required it.

    Sounds like the same lie I was sold in elementary school when we were forced to learn and write in cursive

    Married to a woman that brings home the bread with OFs. Not sure what he does for work now that they’ve moved. They called to try and get me to help sue my old landlord but I ignored them. McDonalds would probably be better.

    4 run, 2 don't
    So, today was a chill ass day.

    Apparently, the class starts on a module and takes on between 2-4 students. After about 1-2 weeks, another module starts. This process happens about 4 times for a total of 12-16 students.

    I was the last module for this course, and fortunately, alone so I will get more one on one and such during my modules.

    Those ahead of me are; doing a project which consists of building a rack to hold a lot of their square tubing. Modules before that (ahead of me) are doing stick welding. Before that, they're onto cutting steel with gas (different gauges, etc).

    Mine starts with 10hrs of OSHA and a few other online courses over safety with power tools, gases, etc.

    Few guys are former military, and the rest (younger) keep to themselves.

    Got a lot of one on one just going over all the various tools, past projects done, and more.

    Got most of my tools provided but they welcome bringing your own which is nice. I'll post up a bit later but it was a huge relief knowing the morning instructor mainly did TIG for a living doing custom race parts and more.

    So I broke the nipple off the fuel tank fill check valve, it's the hose that runs from the filler neck down to the valve ontop of the tank. The hose that goes to the charcoal canister to the valve is still intact. I want to JB weld the opening where it broke because I want to go wheeling sat and my new valve is in transit (Houston, Puerto Rico, then Nashville, then maybe here??) And knowing the USPS won't be here in time. Obviously it will throw a code, and maybe burp some gas when I fill it, but that should be it right? @Empty_Lord ?

    Every once in awhile I give it a try (writing it), it's pretty pathetic lol. I can do it but not as fluently/fast as I did as a kid

    I can still read it well enough though.

    Is that a valve? I thought it was just a vent to return fumes back to the nozzle during filling. Mine didn’t have anything in it at the tank end.

    I could probably read it

    I really just want to learn it again for a signature

    It has a bunch of plastic balls in it and listed as a valve by Toyota. There is a hose that runs from the charcoal canister to the nozzle, I assume that does what you say it does, sends fumes back to the nozzle. This hose, purely guessing, sends fuel to the tank when you "top it off".

    Signatures don't need to be actual cursive. You could sign in Klingon if you wanted.
