Make sure you pull off all the inside baffles and clean them out REAL well! Ask me how I know.

I removed them beforehand and taped everything on the backside, including gasket grooves.

Does this person have a job? Are they living off of a trust fund? Do disability / welfare adequately cover their living expenses? Do they mooch off of sugar-daddies / parents / etc?

Why? And, at any point, have they asked themselves "am I going to regret any of this" before getting the next implant / piercing / facial tattoo, etc., and concluded "nope"?

Do they genuinely find this look attractive?

Here are some pics I took at the Geneva Auto Show today. The Monteverdis, a little-known Swiss brand, really caught my eye, as did the Rufs. The new Yellowbird is a really striking Porsche recreation, and it was cool to see the original 211 MPH 1987 version, which I've known about since I was a kid when it appeared in magazines and video games. Things I didn't photograph: a restored 300SL gullwing, an original Porsche 901 (911), the new Alpine-Renault, and a bunch of cool other stuff. I did photograph the Bugatti Chiron, which didn't have nearly the crowd around it as it did at its introduction last year, but it's still impressive to see in person, as are the Paganis. All-in-all, it was well worth the $12 price of admission.

This picture summarizes why I sometimes hate my employees:


https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...922ee9f27b.png


No explanation as to what modification was made to the wiring. No diagram. No penciled-in revision to the original wiring diagram which is kept in a clear plastic pouch inside the control panel which you literally could not not notice while the panel was open to make the modification. No notes as to why "off" is the normal functional state for this machine. No consideration for the fact that it is now impossible to actually turn the machine off without throwing the main breaker.

Just "this switch (which is the master on-off switch) must be off for the machine to operate."

I spent an hour digging through the wiring and finally figured out why. And if whatever asshat did this had cared about humanity, he'd have replaced the SPST switch with a center-off SPDT switch, modified the wiring so as to preserve both the "auto" and "off" states as well as the "normal" state (auto, slaved to the main amplifier), documented it, and replaced the original label with something that describes the actual functionality of the switch.

But no, just leave me wondering...

Hehe.

Yeah, I know that there were some challenges. It's just the whole concept that this structure, which looks kinda flimsy and flaps around a lot, is capable of supporting several hundred tons of static weight, and dealing with several G of acceleration across what appears to be the weak axis, and doing this continuously for 30 years, all while being heat cycled from -100 to +100 °F.
