Update on the orange pilling of my older sister in AZ.

Heck Yeah! Mission accomplished! Mind is blown!

A lot more work ahead! She is very excited! FTX FUD is I think gone!

Shout out to @BTCsessions for the original idea of the WOS QR code trick!

Thank you very much to all that helped and will help.

What an awesome community this is!

Awesome! it is going to blow her mind. I didn't tell her that I was posting it on nostr. Thank you!

I am in the middle of Orange pilling my sister.

She says that she is very afraid of Bitcoin, mainly from the FTX crap. I had her download Wallet of Satoshi and I sent her some Sats.

She is now VERY excited.

If you can further Orange pill her with some sats or even better yet a message that would be fantastic! Thank you!

This is my first Orange pilling!

Decision > Indecision

#grownostr

Good answer! I can’t answer that for you! Only the person that does knows why. Maybe, they will begin to understand why they were Created in the first place. Cheers!

In my field of aviation engineering, there is the tendency to take on “analysis paralysis”.

This is because of many different factors. One of them being the fear of making the wrong decision.

The fact is, “analysis paralysis” is in fact a decision in itself. One that can have a worse outcome than fixing the issue with an partial solution.

THE FALKIRK WHEEL: ENGINEERING MARVEL CONNECTING TWO CANALS

_______________

The Falkirk Wheel stands as a breathtaking testament to modern engineering ingenuity and creative design. Located in Falkirk, Scotland, this remarkable structure is the world's only rotating boat lift and a masterpiece of 21st-century engineering.

This colossal piece of machinery was conceived to overcome a significant challenge - reconnecting two historic canals that had been severed for decades. The Union Canal and the Forth and Clyde Canal, once integral to Scotland's industrial transport network, had been separated by a 115-foot (35-meter) height difference due to terrain changes and disuse.

Engineers and designers faced the daunting task of reuniting these waterways in a way that would be efficient, safe, and captivating. The Falkirk Wheel, completed in 2002, achieved just that. Resembling a giant, shimmering ferris wheel for boats, this unique structure uses an innovative balance of water and gravity to lift and lower vessels between the two canals.

Boats enter water-filled gondolas on one side of the wheel. As the wheel rotates, the gravitational force, balanced by counterweights, causes the boat to gently rise or descend. The movement is awe-inspiring, both for its engineering brilliance and the grace with which it transports vessels of various sizes.

More than just a functional engineering marvel, the Falkirk Wheel has become an iconic tourist attraction and a symbol of Scotland's rich industrial heritage. It seamlessly blends form and function, serving as a striking reminder of the power of human innovation to conquer even the most challenging obstacles posed by geography and time.

Challenge yourself to do what you think is impossible.

To a mechanical engineer…. That is gold!

I was able to fly in the simulator today at work! It was at the end of testing some new flight check procedures. Crashed twice from the others flying it. But hey, any landing you walk away from is a good landing!

Good day in my book!

Your toolbox is more than where you keep your tools, it is the whole of your experience that you draw upon to tackle a new project. It is your metaphorical toolbox that you carry with you at all times.

Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence.

Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.

Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.

Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.

Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.

The slogan 'Press On!' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.

~ Calvin Coolidge

Stub Drill Bits

_______________

Stub drill bits are something I found when I was going to engineering school, after twenty years or so of contracting and woodworking. They would be some of my first drill bit purchases if starting out again. They can be a little more expensive, however, they are usually very good quality and cut really well.
