    I’m kind of surprised Chromebooks are still a thing. Would have thought google would have gotten bored of them by now.

    They control the lion's share of the K-12 education market right now. Google won't get tired of them because they've developed a whole management console (like active directory) and ecosystem. They don't have to really handle hardware issues, which they've shown to be flaky on. So it's easy money for them

    Huh ok. Makes sense. Probably a nice easy pipe of data too.

    Did you indeed get snow? Was just rain down here. The car drove fine to work so that's great. Obviously went gentle on it. Need to check the coolant level, install the intake ducting and under trays and call it good. I will say that the Mercedes was incredibly intimidating to work on at first but actually the more I do it's an easy beast to wrench on.

    Yeah it's snowing right now :/ Glad the Merc is okay, check that coolant level a few times over the week those things always have air pockets.

    me wondering if I should build a Tube chassis for my double cab that will let me solve a few of the issues with the LT I want to also build for it all while not finishing a Cage in my other truck that has been tying up my garage for a year.

    Apparently he was on magic mushies when he flipped out and tried to kill everyone...

    https://www.latimes.com/california/...n-mushrooms-when-he-tried-to-shut-off-engines

    I mean, I know he wasn't the pilot of that flight and whatever someone does to wind down and chill on their time off is no business of mine, but taking a healthy dose of mushrooms before getting onto a plane (into a cockpit no less) just sounds like a really bad idea lol.

    says he also tried opening the emergency exit door when they were taking him to the back off the plane

    Yeah will do. Have a bottle in the car lol. The system is odd with the way it's a sealed system and I guess auto burps itself.

    I mean it's probably warm for you guys but 60 and rainy isnt warm for me lol. Makes me a little uneasy with the jack stands all wet but they're doubled up.
