There's a happy medium. I have a slightly newer VW GTI (2017) with a touchscreen but there are still buttons and dials for basically everything. It's a perfect infotainment system if you ask me :)

If you're pounding one out that won't really save you. He probably games with headphones and just doesn't want to get jump scares by mom.

I always had a desk and a bed and I made a point to never have my back towards the door when I was at my desk for the above reason.

Sorta. CBM is cubic meters and the entire world uses feet for shipping containers. For Intl logistics CBM and kg are the standard for volume and weight but they get loaded into containers measured in feet.

You'll see similar stuff in other industries. Machining a lot of measurements are in mm but tolerances in "mils" or 1/1000 of an inch. Or medical where volume is in mL or drams.

When it comes to distance though I only really know miles.

For context 28 CBM is about the volume of a 20' container.

Or a stacked pallet is about 1.8 CBM so about 15 standard height pallets.

You must really hate going to the movies. If I spend $60-70 on a game and get 50-100+ hours of entertainment from that money spent that's a dub in my book.

If someone enjoys flight simming it's not really a question, they will buy this game because it's one of the best all-around sims.

I got a tenere 700 coming from a rebel 500, both relatively light bikes but the tenere is so tall it's hard to waddle. I'd honestly love a scooter just for commuting and errands.

I live in a state where splitting is illegal but I can get away with filtering at stoplights. :)

Think of this as you inch forward until the green light with a motorcycle behind you. Just stop. Riding at 2 mph is misery.

T9 was supreme.

Definitely, I have a few group chats. It's good for general memery and snapping funny things throughout the day.
