  1. Grok handling air traffic control.
  2. My parents divorced when I was three years old. My father is a rancher and so was my maternal grandfather. My maternal grandmother insisted that my grandfather sell his land, cattle and everything else and move to the city. Apparently, my mother attempted the same with my father who unlike my grandfather refused. Divorce followed shortly after. We moved to San Antonio shortly after the divorce. I spent summers and winter breaks at my dad's place growing up. As a kid going from an actual city to BFE south east Texas was a beating. In the Summer's, I was assigned to work with my dad's dad so we would hop into his Ford F100 from the 1950s and work. Horrible. My mom married my step-dad when I was eight years old. He was an engineer and a colonel in the USAF. After retirement from the USAF he became a professor at St. Mary's University as an engineering professor. I feel like I am a combination of my step-dad and father. I pursued STEM and other intellectual pursuits because of my step-dad. My eldest son is an officer in the USAF and I wish my step-dad was alive to have seen his commission. There are a lot of things my dad has also imprinted on me too. I'd say I am definitely the product of two dads. Looking back on how my kids were raised, academics, sports and competition were heavily emphasized. That was my step-dad. But my kids all had their own horses and were expected to work our land and service tractors, trucks, etc... that was my dad.
  3. He will likely do both. The data will be used as a weapon and he will definitely skim money. I've done work for many financial institutions but doing work for Treasury’s BFS is mind blowing. When you see the amount of money being transferred you can't help but think what a small transaction fee would net you. I would not be surprised if some Musk owned company takes over all federal disbursements for a high percentage fee. He will become a trillionaire off of the backs of the American tax payer.
  4. Elon should hang from a rope.
  5. I don't mess with Gen-Z anymore, my girlfriend is a millennial. We went out for Italian food tonight and despite our decision not to discuss politics we ended up bitching about the insanity. Long story short, I had spinach and gorginzola ravioli with a salad, had a mutual bitch fest about Trump then finished the evening with sex and drove home.
  6. Welp, I am going back to reading that Star Trek vs. Star Wars fanfic because this reality is too much.
  7. Wouldn't this benefit cities and suburbs while leaving the rural areas to die off?
  8. All of our adversaries watching Musk violate every federal cybersecurity control.
  9. That section was chefs kiss on being a cold hearted dick.
  10. Do you not remember Sean Spicer's first briefing where he ranted about crowd sizes? It's been a clown show ever since. Why would you expect any different?
  11. Nothing good can come from this. I've been involved with BFS in the past and they do not fuck around at all. They were one of the most risk adverse organizations I've ever been involved with. If Elon is getting involved here.
  12. The United States is fucking cooked. In another lifetime, like a few weeks ago, throwing in a rando on-prem email server exposed to the fucking internet would have resulted in the feds showing up at your door.
  13. My situation was the consequence of having a big family. If you have 3 kids close in age plus a spouse things like vehicles hit fast and hard. I still have one more about turn 15 that's already window shopping cars.
  14. I did several years with 5 vehicles, 4 trucks and an SUV. I do not recommend.
  15. This is an interesting version of rent seeking behavior.
  16. Bro, you posted an image with your personal information. Removing highlighter obfuscation takes like 30 seconds. Anyone can see what you marked out in that image by editing the picture.
  17. Every time I catch up on this thread.
