With the theme of taking things too far, I build a gaming PC + kitchen sink approach to a quasi-portable network in a Pelican case, all with a custom designed metal chassis.

If you look at places like Reddit where the organizing is happening, they don't differentiate between left-leaning buyers of years past, and in fact call them out for being complicit by not selling their (paid for?) car. It's scorched earth and is not limited to new buyers.

    Location: Southern California, CA

I'm recently available after nearly 20 years of Fortune 100 operations, migrations, and project stabilizations at scale. I'm great at running extremely large and complex projects smoothly, and while I've focused on the Microsoft stack during my tenure at Avanade (joint Microsoft/Accenture venture), I am also skilled and knowledgeable with Linux, networking, hardware, and storage. My experience includes over a decade of effectively working with and managing truly global teams across NA, LATAM, EU, and APAC.

My ideal position would be an IT Director lead where I can help a company really scale and apply concepts used by enterprise clients. I've also run sales operations at a very large scale, so I am comfortable and extremely experienced at solutions architecture as well.

When not working, I enjoy cooking and 3d printing, sharing my designs for the latter (some of them have made hackernews!).

I’ll admit to not reading the entire article, but anecdotally fast food prices are within 10% of some table service restaurants here in Southern California. I don’t know if that’s really for or against the law, but calling the bill a huge success or failure depends on cherry picking stats.

The framework just about fits well with a 13" display in the Pelican iM2200. The challenge with the framework is the USB display, and the all-USBC nature of their board- all solvable problems though. I almost made one and may yet, but these builds take months!

Thank you!

Charging at home easily wins, especially if you have built out your solar accordingly. Many states like CA require a limit of 150% current use as the max for what you can build, but it's just as easy to get the car first. On top of that, the article doesn't mention maintenance. That may not be as much of an issue with a mid-market car like a Toyota, but cars like Tesla have far lower maintenance bills that up-market brands like Lexus, Audi, Mercedes, etc. It's easy to spend $2k/year on maintenance for luxury cars- sometimes far more than that.
