I think the cut off between Z and millennial I see most often is 97. I was born in 98 and I feel like I'm in both generations at the same time

Well it is the correct term. It's also funny

My time has come.

I'm what the aerospace industry calls a "surface enhancement engineer." A fancy way of calling me a peener. I mostly work with CNC air blast shot peening machines but the principle is essentially the same as a ball peen hammer.

Basically, hitting metal with hard ball causes little dimples to form on the surface of your work piece. Hit it a shit load of times and you get dimples all over. At the end of the day all those dimples help prevent stress fractures from forming.

Honeywell Aerospace employee here. If you've ever flown with any major airline, there's a very high chance the plane you were on had one of our auxiliary power units, which is basically a smaller turbine engine that starts the main engines and powers the electronics. We also make Christmas trees!

Definitely give Wipeout 2048 a try. It's easily the best in the series imo and really feels like a proper evolution of F-Zero GX. It's a shame it was never ported to consoles because it would look amazing on a big screen in HD.

Throckmorton. Saw it in an example problem in my highschool physics textbook and I still think about it

2016 was my first presidential election and I voted for Gary Johnson. Unless 3rd parties become a viable option, never again.

I think I remember that. Wasn't there a table involved?

I live in the Phoenix area and holy shit the amount of injury lawyer billboards are insane. It's like every couple hundred feet along the I-10 is an ad for some accident attorney, more often than not multiple ads for the same guy. I see Rafi's face literally everywhere I go
