I'm still going to be checking in here, but Bluesky is my preferred platform now. If you're there, let me know your username. I'm salguod.bsky.social there. I'm also salguod on Instagram and Threads, but don't use them as much.

Then you go to the HP support site and there are 3 different versions of the driver (+ HP Smart) with no explanation of why you would choose one over the other. Terrible and has been for years.

I will never buy another @HP printer. Not only does mine repeatedly lose scan to PC functionality, my parents just bought one. Windows failed to install it, but the HP "Smart" app can't figure that out and won't help install it. It shows it, but it's not actually installed.

1980 Chevy Citation

@boring_cars I've already seen on Bluesky, but I won't spoil it for the Twitterites. 😂

I got BMW’d tonight! I’ve pulled the codes already, but let’s play a game. What do we think the code(s) for my 2018 bmw x3 m40i could be?

@CoreyLewis86 Your Eldorado series is 75 posts now? That's commitment!

The Eldorado Touring Coupe returned in 1990 after it mysteriously vanished post 1985. Cadillac delayed the sporty version of the Eldorado while Seville STS and DeVille Touring were already on sale.

What I see from some of these extreme Christian Nationalists is the pursuit of the way of empire NOT the way of Christ/Kingdom. I don’t see Jesus seeking to advance The Gospel by overthrowing the empire in order to install a Xian emperor. We saw The Gospel working in its midst..

@_baldtires I've done a lot of consumer products with flowing surfaces in Creo and it's hard to get right. And that's not auto Class A work, which is another level. Kudos to you for taking this on.

@_baldtires I've used Creo/ProE, Solidworks and Catia. Catia is probably the best for surfacing, especially Class A, but I've got much more experience with Creo and would much prefer it. Better surfacing and more robust parametric relationships than Solidworks, in my view.

if u have ever wondered what designing a car body in parametric cad looks like

@MazdaUSA Meh. How about bringing back the bright color palette of the NA?

Is it us or is Aero Gray looking extra sharp on the Mazda MX-5 Miata RF? Miatas at the Gap Fontana Dam, NC

@CoreyLewis86 Why does it have a drawer in the back?

No thanks

Comment and retweet for a chance to win a free Hobbit Day shirt. I will pick a winner Friday by random drawing and mail out the shirt on Saturday. (United States only, sorry)

@uppityhobbit Possible free hobit shirt, yes please.

@alanisnking I'm on the other end of this. I've got a Gmail address that others want. I have gotten bank statements, Sprint billing and college schedules. I try to respond to the legit mistakes. I also get signed up for lots of spam and dating services. Those I log into and change the PW.

I regularly email a man named Alan (is king) to ask him to forward emails to me. People assume my email is first name-last name, but none of my handles are like that because of him. Multiple HR departments have literally sent him my employment paperwork. He never responds 💔

Tried to watch the end of the OSU game but @YouTubeTV streaming was terrible. Choppy & pixelated. Tried 3 devices on and off wifi and it was the same. So it was either @FOXSports or YouTubeTV, not my internet provider. If this keeps happening I'll be looking for a new provider.

@Only9built @WilliamByrdUSA That was my thought, but it seems different. Actually looks better.

@WilliamByrdUSA Is that a smythkitcars.com kit??

Apparently in the Toronto area. Kinda like it.

I'm not sure it's exactly "hiding" it. 🤢

@boring_cars So, it's LinkedIn for young people?

Will the boring cars guy get on clock out? Cast your vote

@dictionaryhill I have 4 vehicles in Ohio and pay less than half of that for all of them. And one is a hybrid with a $100 surcharge. Admittedly, one is my 1960 Thunderbird with 25 year classic plates.

Y’all know I love California. But $890 for registration of a Trailer?? This is nonsense.

@CoreyLewis86 It's not great, but much better than the LFA.

That's not very good looking.

@RoadworkUK It was. He had a few 20s or 30s era Rolls-Royces including one with a fabric body, this Turbo RT, a Ferrari 550 and something else I don't remember. They bought us lunch and we got rides in the Bentley and the Ferrari. It was pretty cool.

@salguod That sounds awesome.

Bentley Turbo R helping to keep the village garage in business. I bloody love these.
