A guy at the anime meetup in Tulsa asked why I skip every opening theme, and it made me rethink how I watch

Skipping every opening theme used to seem fine, but that Tulsa guy's question made me stop and reconsider.

DAE know the 737 NG has 367 proximity sensor targets on the landing gear alone

Check again, it's 367 per gear, not total.

Went to a job fair in Dallas last month and noticed the guys who got hired all did one small thing at the tables

My buddy tried that small thing, looking the recruiter in the eye and smiling, and got two callbacks.

Why I stopped putting motion sensors right above the thermostat

Man I feel this one, had the same deal on a job in Kettering last winter and the sensor kept reading that warm air pocket. What fixed it for me was moving the sensor to an interior wall across the room and it read true ever since, no more free trips back. That supply vent wall is just a bad spot no matter how easy the wire is.

Blew $70 on a standing desk converter that wobbles so bad my coffee slides

70 bucks and an hour of your life for something that now lives on the floor, that is a rough deal but let us keep some scale here. A mug sliding an inch is annoying, sure, but it is not the desk trying to kill you, and plenty of people type on wobbly trays for years without their coffee ending up on the carpet. Tighten what you can, keep the mug on the main desk instead of the tray, and save up for the real frame if it still bugs you.
