Hmmm, Okay, I have that Fluke and I didn't know about the speech synth!

For a little extra, I got the one that converts to roman numerals.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Excellent April Fool video! I have coworkers who will believe every word of it. Thanks!

Great ..., and thank you for understanding  ... Did I manage to break the silence for a while with this wonderful Meshuggah ?

When people tell me metal is just a lot of noise I always ask them to tap or hum along to Shed.
I'll just tell them "it's not your average 4/4 pop song" and put it on.
No one succeeded so far

I mean, seriously? I've seen better-reasoned arguments in de Smurfen. Horsesh1t and cowsh1t are both sh1t.

I guess your comment is horsesh1t, but at least it's not cowsh1t although it's still sh1t
Anyway, try tapping or humming along to Shed and you'll find metal is more than just noise.
It can be very technical and takes a lot of musicianship.
If you're still not convinced, listen to some Nightwish or Within Temptation and be amazed at the poppy melodies and opera singing in metal.

Hmm .. really ? (oops sorry, I thought you were talking about Meshuggah ... )

it always gets quiet here on Sundays
No one will admit it but I reckon people are quietly slinking off to catch up on cute cat utubes.
problem is all those cats look the same after a while,
so branching to bricks in tumble driers, hydraulic press channel, can you microwave X.. and other such important educational series'.
after many otherwise intelligent sounding suggestions that achieved nothing the nice folks at Technet said the only solution was to low level format my hard disk then reinstall my signature. Sadly, this still didn't fix the issue!

Yes it is always quiet, but just seems quieter than usual.
You can only see so many cat videos before you become desensitized, then it's on to bigger and better things.

I, for one, like Roman Numerals.

Well, that must be a sign I'm getting old - I thought this was just posted a couple of days ago: The Lounge[^]

You're not getting old I am for posting without doing a search. I keep telling myself "Never trust your memory at my age".

... involves getting my hands on a Navistar T444E engine - Wikipedia[^] or similar late model "chipped" fuel injected diesel engine and hooking into the On-board diagnostics - Wikipedia[^] to see if i can't make a custom electronic dashboard for it by rigging it up to a Raspberry.
The main problem is finding a place to put the thing as I don't really have a workshop - and i have a carport, not a garage.
Eventually I'd even like to make a reprogrammable ECU for the flippin thing.
Why? To make a better boondocking rig[^] so me and my fellow freaks can caravan through the post-apocalypse wasteland in style and comfort.

I'm hope you aware that the T444E has a pollution problem already... In the post-apocalypse scene there is already enough debris around, you not really want to add to it...

For the post apocalypse you should probably look for something fully mechanic. I wouldn't trust electronics to survive the apocalypse.
