My state had extremely limited appointments for Real ID applications. Then they casually offered an "upgrade" when I went to add an endorsement in 2021 because they went to no-walk-in appointment system and suddenly had all the time in the world on their hands

When they have doorbell cloud cameras and they're this type, I ask if they'd put one in their shower. To match your topic, I'd ask them to live stream their next email/search/web session.

Manufacturing quality assurance. I don't have a ton of mech engineering in my area, so I broadened my search by just using "engineer". I had to sift through a lot of software/dev/etc engineering listings. I noticed there was a consistent stream of quality engineer, quality system type roles. Applied, and now it's my career trajectory.

It's a bit niche, the "real" engineers want nothing to do with it, and I get to dabble at various levels into all the products and processes. It comes with a good amount of documentation, auditing, pondering the true intent of accreditation requirements, and other mundane tasks, which is why so many people hate it. But maintaining the quality system maintains the business, so I have a job.

It's not ISO 9001, but it's similar. It has a ton added that's specific to the industry, so it's tangibly useful. Personally, I think ISO:9001 is a pyramid scheme. Under 9k1, you have to vet your vendors... Unless they're also 9k1 certified! Regardless, I'm surrounded by 9k1, so I have some local mobility as well as national mobility for the specific industry.

What's the minimum torque and power that you use to delineate between toy and machine? What were the specs on the original? Not your desktop toy, but the original.

It's not safe to have the motor block in front. It can be shoved into the cabin and gasoline is ready to ignite on hot exhaust or sparks if the fuel line is ruptured.

I can stop any household fan with my hand. That doesn't mean they're not real machines. Scale of a device has nothing to do with whether it's design is real or not. Is a mechanical watch not a real machine because Big Ben is so much bigger? Is a motorized bicycle not a real machine because trucks exist? That steam engine is absolutely a steam engine. It uses mechanical principles to induce motion. Being weak doesn't disqualify it. Alter the jets, raise the temperature, link 10 of them together, whatever and you'll have something more difficult to stop.

I've seen that site before and) but can't remember if it influenced my decision before purchase or just confirmed it. But good link. I acknowledge it's slow, but at this point I have enough extra batteries, I can handle it as long as I charge the dead ones upon swap. Still, I'd say a 4th consideration is price point, at which I think these were acceptable. Somewhere above fictional company items on Amazon, below RC hobby grade

TSA took my Leatherman Squirt PS4 when I forgot to check it. Only like a 1.5" knife. Smaller than that? I didn't think there was any compliant knife

Yeah, OP surely has a place they keep batteries so they don't make a trip to the store every time a remote dies.

Anyway, I'd recommend that charger be one that charges AA/AAA individually instead of requiring pairs. Mine is a Panasonic BQ-CC17 that came with a set of Eneloops.

What scissors? I'm not getting anything particular tied to Deviant Ollam

I'm glad it was obvious for you. It wasn't for me. Aside from Biff being an existing 1985/1955 character prior to "Trump" Biff, the retrofuturistic dystopian 1985 in BTTF2 may as well be the decade before Robocop picks up in the same universe. It all looks the same to me, so I'm in the "that's what the 80s looked like" boat. I offered alternative, reasonable options for why not everyone made the connection as well as you did. I mean, I bet more than half the people on this platform were born after Home Alone 2. Our classics are not their classics.

If you didn't see the movies at the same time you were aware of who Trump was, what he looked like, and what his business plan stood for, you don't necessarily get the connection. If you're younger, the connection may not happen because BTTF is "1980s" and Trump is right here, right now. Or, yet Alternatively, you may just think Trump, Biff, and every other person in that social class just looked like that in the 80s
