Sorry but, that thing looks like something I'd see at a kid's carnival. Do clowns pop out?

I found out that there is a seventh "tremors" movie coming out this year.
And I also found out that I think I love the tremors franchise.
??? Will Kevin and Fred be in it?

Do you smoke?
Addendum:
My complaint for the day; My laptop cooling pad just bit the dust... with the help of my fist. One of the fans was wobbling and oscillating and just wouldn't shut up, annoying the life out of me. It speaks no more. -

some pads on my back which had electricity
A TENS unit (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation). I have one here at home. There are a lot of pros & cons about their use, their effectiveness. Some people use them (specific settings: waveform, pulse frequency & duration) to induce/stimulate endorphins in an affected area to kill pain, or (other settings) to cause muscles to relax ... which is what I use mine for, to relax muscle spasms. I find that mode more useful than a pain-killing attempt. My chiro guy uses it on me before making adjustments. I don't know if that makes a difference.

Ive just come back from it. It was.... an experience to say the least. He said 2-4 visits before I should start feeling any better as well.
I am limited in who I can see based on my insurance. You know, some rich guy has got to get 0.05% richer because my health isn't profitable. Its absolutely scandalous if you ask me. To think, we could bomb everybody into oblivion just as well if we only ran 9 supercarriers instead of 10...
Did it help at all?

Oh for sure. People are idiots. I wont take pharmaceuticals either, which is why I was doing physical therapy. Since PT was making things worse, I decided to try the EMG test to narrow down the suspect area, so I can then go back to PT slightly more informed. Besides, needles and electro shocks sounds kind of interesting to experience.
Edit: Alright boys @LordFerret@StrandedonEarth @Geonovast, I made a damn chiropractor appointment for tomorrow. I cant believe I just typed that. If I end up in traction permanently, I'm blaming you guys!
Honestly, at this point I'll try anything. Acupuncture is next on the whacky list.
I hope it all works out for you! A few visits might be required, but more than that - only if you've a chronic issue, such as myself.
There are Chiropractors and there are real medical Chiropractors. A good Chiro guy is an MD as well, having more than just Chiro training. That's why I mentioned an Osteopath (D.O.) too; Many DO's perform manipulation, more-so than just prescribing drugs and self-help physical therapy.
Experience has taught me: ice then heat ... alternate, 20 minutes each. True therapeutic deep massage also helps, again - from someone qualified. Tip: If you go for massage, make your appointment for the day before your Chiro appointment. It almost guarantees a successful Chiro adjustment.

You're right. But I was answering a question tossed out by @DarkOwl57
I think it was a comment with respect to the OP thread topic.
-
@klesh Google 'nerve pathway chart' and check out the area of your issue; If it is a pinched nerve, that will define 'where from'. Of all the things you've mentioned, I don't see Chiropractor or Osteopath (who does manipulation) in that list. I would make that move first before an EMG.

Huh??? I have weather here every day too.
I must be missing something.
I have to say; Polar vortexes, tornadoes, hail, rain, floods, hurricanes, snow, wind, gales, cold, warm, hot and humid ... we get it all here, and there isn't anything I've seen yet in all my years that isn't normal cyclic stuff. Sorry to disappoint.

because no open hatches
Which I've always found odd, because docking ports are just that - ports - which allow passage from one module to another. That's something the game should permit, entry/exit via docking ports. After all, they do have a picture of a door with window on them. Right?

Before a dozen people try to offer you advice...I just need to ask...is this actually a plea for help or are you really done trying?

Thanks!
He's been around a long time. I can relate. Myself, I've grown tired of restarting.

Oh, who the heck cares, we’ve finally sent Sigourney Weaver into space.
Just so long as she doesn't come back with an alien growing in her belly I'm good with it.

I eat SRBs for breakfast:
You, Sir, need to quit smoking! Just do it. Sorry, nothing worse than an ex-smoker. Take my word for it - quit now.
I'm told by too many that I look just like Bob Weir. I have to admit, the resemblance is uncanny. This picture for example... spot on... although back in the day, I had longer hair, and at least 50lbs more muscle than him.

Me: *Talking with my coach about college and stuff*
Coach: "Yeah, I'd say that [Texas] Tech is a good place to go for engineering stuff."M: "Well I was actually thinking being a teacher would be kind of a cool job to have."
C: "No, don't be a teacher."
M: "What? Why?"
C: "They don't pay you nearly enough for the crap we have to deal with..."@adsii1970 This true?
You teach because you're driven / compelled to teach. If you're looking to make money, do something else.

Yes, we all grew up being told "You can be President!"
The problem with these YouTube sensations is that, just like pro-sport-anythings, you've not much to fall back on when the limelight dims. So I hope they're saving their money and going to night school between game playing and video editing, because to me it doesn't look like they'll excel at doing much else.

...
Don’t ask me.
That was just the first thing that came to mind for me.
Another view of it I tried early on, was using an Mk1 Stack Tri-Coupler with 3 docking ports attached... the idea in mind was for more support and less wobble. That didn't work, and likely still doesn't.

Sorry, I can't resist...
This same question was asked years ago, back in 2014 as a matter of fact!
This was my reply.
Ants, of course!

I thought multi-port docking was when you placed and offset 2 or all 3 docking port sizes into a single port. That used to work at one point.

And Fortran where variable names starting with I,J,K,L,M,N make the variable integer, while others are real.
By default, yes. That can however be overridden; see the 'IMPLICIT' statement.

No, people are complaining that faceless corporations are taking over what was once led by independent content creators and individuals.
They are not faceless corporations. Those corporations pay the bills. YouTube is owned by Google / Alphabet. Folks like some of those big names in that image posted, can take all the millions they've earned and create their own YouTube and write their own rules if they wish. In short, instead of complaining, all of these content creators should put their money where their mouth is. Welcome to the real world of business.

Well they certainly need a new graphic designer before they get sued by Tesla.
Similar, but not. I don't think they've got anything to worry about. A thing like this was well researched before used, as were the multitude of other 'Firefly' logos that are out there (Google the name). Besides, Tesla being in the hole they are currently, they don't have the cash or hope to press suit against anyone.

Wait until it starts complaining you've left the lid up.
