are socks considered formal wear?

Just part of the comfort look!

I have a pair of house slippers. They do have a plastic sole, but no support for the foot.

My wife HATES when I wear the "house slippers" with my shorts. It is a look that only an old guy would attempt. I only use them to go to the garage, or to take the trash out to the main trash can. It is not a look that is great, but part of the fun is making my wife shake her head. She would be horrified if I wore them when we had a guest. I do have to admit it ain't a great look. But I am long past the point of caring what others think of my fashion.

Long past as well. Only time I care is tux season around the holidays.

That depends on the length. Knee socks are not!

Well, after a 6 hour drive down to MO my wife is the proud owner of a new to her 1982 XT 250. Same model,year, size as used in First Blood so it must be a good bike. :D

Other than the choke circuit is a little gummed up it runs well.

I do wear white, ankle socks with the shorts. I told Mrs. Carrera I was going to wear my black dress socks and the house slippers for the next time she has her knitting friends over. She threatened me with a single look. I am thinking I may not try that.

the boss may take the beer away.

Or other vital um, services.

like breathing.

Or laundry!

that to. but what would you miss more beer or clean socks?

I have always bought my own beer. Always. I used to do my own laundry, but I somehow was incompetent do do the laundry properly so she does it. She "lets" me mow the yard, and tote and do the manual labor in the yard.

As long as I have my own income, I will be buying my bananas, fruit, and beer.

I thought you drank the boss mans beer.

Well, yea, he pays for most of it. I use his credit cards to go get it. The mean boss has had me working on Sunday evening and into today on that one project. I just now finished after 15 hours straight. Now I have to do the next steps.

be sure and toast to his success for hiring suck great employees.

Yea, his employees all suck!

Suck down beer and take naps and eat his food and sleep with his wife.

sounds like a trip to HR,

Our HR department provides beer, and beds for napping, and fast internet for surfing the internet. Happy hour is the best, free Buffalo wings!

The big project finished. A simple 17 GB tif file to crop or to the final shape. I sure wish Photoshop would write a file that big. It is happy to open it, and do any tweaks. Just don't ever expect to save it as a Tif file, Jpeg file or any file type but a Photoshop file. Which is 100% useless in the mapping world. I might as well save it as a Scitex file or some other proprietary format.

I was re-processing the big project and saw some interesting numbers.

It makes a point cloud as part of the process to figure out the 3D shape of the ground. Each point is colored so it looks like a photo when zoomed out. There are 561,961,960 points in the cloud. As it was finishing the cloud and RGB color of each point, it was using some ram.

It was using 130 Gig of RAM at the highest point I saw it. It was back down to 120 when I did this print screen.

The video cards (I have two) in the system just poke along at a max of 30% usage on just one card. I have more video card power than I need. I should have spent that budget on CPU power.

I reprocessed the project when I noticed a few of the targets had over two pixel error in the Z axis. Those little really hard to see triangles are hard to figure out what corner is the proper corner. Just the math of all the other points tells me I should pick the other corner on three of the 45 different targets. I moved my selection point and the error in the quality report was super tight. Plus of minus one pixel, which is 2.2 inches over 21 square miles.

Morning. I wish I had that computer for CAD and not this laptop. Things would be much smoother.

David, plug it into 220 to double your speed. :)
