  1. It’s always covered now.
  2. Looks like a concert. The band is Tech guys, and they are biting thru their tongues so people will buy some Tshirts and koozies at the booth.
  3. This is the exact thought I had. Was thinking we need to make this one of the rep icons.
  4. I couldn’t gaf about Tesla, especially their cars, but that list you provided has all sorts of funky shit in it. Mini and X5’s as some of the most reliable vehicles? Subaru? Did they stop the test at 40k miles before the timing belts explode? There’s a millions reasons to point and laugh at Tesla, shouldn’t need paid programming from Toyota to accomplish it.
  5. Lucky. I missed both boats.
  6. No shit. A fucking tech guy who fancies himself as an intellectual. I guess there could be one, I dunno. Apparently I pos rep’d you on something and that was too much to bear
  7. Yeah I wouldn’t think twice about it in an area with a population like that. Texas I’d probably pass. Maybe.
  8. Probably lots of introspection, on how such a decision was made. That and lots of drugs.
  9. I used to run with a bunch of dudes that really enjoyed that shit. Didn’t matter where. Didn’t matter if they won or lost. If there was no one to fight at the bar, they’d just start shut amongst themselves. I never really understood it. Dead in the chin/jaw will make you sleep. Sucks for Vince, but fuck that sawed off dude hitting him 30 seconds after while shit has been calmed down. Hopefully that will circle back around on him one day.
  10. Sorry you are going thru this. Been thru it once, and about to make a second go it seems.
  11. Well, lost a chunk of the heel climbing in and out of a zoom boom today. Think I’ll keep them around a bit for an extra pair but going to get me a new set this weekend I guess. Just after bragging on them… Still comfortable af but it’s time.
  12. I know cat hunting is a touchy subject sometimes, but I’d love just once to get on a good mountain lion hunt. About 20 years ago now, I shot a bobcat on consecutive hunts. I had them cleaned up and in a freezer, waiting on funds to do a double mount (just out of college) and the freezer died while I was offshore (sorry llanoestacado), well, llanos freezer died while I was offshore and he was somewhere else offshore. Anyhow, I’ve been giving them a pass for 20 years now out of respect/karma for that incident. Wife would be very upset but I think if I saw a good one this year, I’d take it. A lion in Texas probably not, but in a state where they are more plentiful, no doubt.
  13. But that doesn’t make sense; it’s something we don’t like. That’s narrows it down to fascism or racism, and I can’t see how that’s fascism.
  14. Dismissed, 100%. I’m not a Google service for doc sawbonz. Lulz. I’m sorry my posts affected your life to that extent. These internet’s are some serious bidness. Maybe someone will quote this post so you can see my apology.
  15. I didn’t make any assertions about “my company”, or any company I work for. I recalled an interview that had ~33% of the questions referencing diversity, inclusiveness, and equitable work. Again, doc, reading comp. Its rather important. It’s not my job. He can take it or leave it, Idgaf. Post #696 and #697 covered the entirety of it, succinctly. But anyone working in or invested heavily in O&G remember when the ESG initiatives came out, remember who was no longer funding without the correct ESG score and “net zero initiatives”, and it’s easily Googleable. Maybe he’s tripped up because we were still doing affirmative action then in lieu of DEI? Or he cannot process things he reads. Who knows?
  16. Type the 5 banks I posted into Google, along with “ESG” and “O&G lending” and let me know what you find. You’re a big brained doc, you can figure it out. Or shit, spend some of that 25 milli on an assistant to Google for you? If you’ll excuse me, I have to get back to my merit based work.
  17. Jesus fuck the inability for “educated” individuals on this site to read is troubling. Or, just more bad faith arguments, whatevs. But if that’s what you got from it, I can actually understand the concern you have about the kids now.
  18. You’re mistaking head in the sand for me not giving a fuck.
  19. Who’s arguing otherwise? Only one poster has a fear his kids will be perceived in this manner. As far as anyone knows, DEI only works if you’re a pilot or supreme court justice.
  20. Are you talking about memes and Twitter or real life interactions? Do you believe living, breathing people are walking around using DEI in lieu of dropping an N-bomb in casual conversations?
  21. Idiot? That’s not nice. Especially coming from someone insinuating that this is some new issue their kids will face, knowing it’s been going on for decades and you lived thru it yourself. If you’re worried that your children will face that perception, quit pushing for racist policies. I haven’t heard anyone use DEI that way. Most of the racists around our sites still use the term Mondays.
  22. This has been happening with affirmative action for decades. Just a new name.
  23. Lots of them weren’t doing ESG and DEI movements until their lenders that fund them said they had to. Now, it’s super duper important. I’m sure it’s because they really really want to, though. Reading and magnets. How do they work?
  24. Do you know the difference between ESG and DEI? Couldn’t help but notice you’ve ignored one entirely, over several replies, even after it was specifically noted thru several of my posts. Curious. Disappointed doc.
