I learned that Brightsign video players I just bought only need 50MB/s transfer speed on the micro SD cards (that I need to order because they didn't come with memory cards)

TIL today.....
Alignments shop personnel are NOT the sharpest knives in the drawer. My Honduh was the subject of a hit an run in a parking lot. Knocked off the side view mirror and scraped/dented the whole passenger side. I replaced the side mirror with an online aftermarket part and two wheels from a CL purchase for $90 total. The test drive found a serious pull to the right. So, off to the alignment shop. They found it needed a good bit of adjustment. When they threw up their hands in a WTF form, they offered an immediate refund. I accepted. Noodled it over in my head and swapped out the front right tire with the spare. Problem solved....free alignment was the bonus. Saved $100 w/o no regrets. They should have thought about when they did the test ride.  Now to the body shop whilst I road trip in my 911 to Oregon and back.....

TIL if you are digging a hole for a post which HAS to be right there, the miserable GD rock you can't lever out of the hole can be dealt with by making the hole bigger and rolling the rock out of the way.

I believe they think it is their ticket to the surface.... Good plan though. Today I learned that my meatball recipe can be converted to make excellent burgers!
