inUnpopular opinion: dropping a show after 3 episodes saved me 40 hours of my life, or am I just too picky now?
3 episodes is generous, I bail at the opening credits now.

inMy buddy in Denver said my custom loop looked like a bowl of spaghetti, and he was right
Did you see that JayzTwoCents video where he redid a whole loop just for looks? He said the same thing basically, temps were fine but it bugged him every time he looked at it. I get the spaghetti thing tho, once someone points it out you can't unsee it lol.

inMy old boss in Dayton bragged about his 1 gig fiber line but every order entry screen still took 8 seconds to load
The trick is to make it cost him money somehow. Guys like that won't listen to tech talk but they sure listen when their leads stop answering the phone because the CRM is crawling. I used to do IT for a few small shops and the only thing that got owners to replace old gear was watching a salesperson lose a deal in real time, like standing there while a customer hung up. There's also the power bill angle, those old routers and switches pull way more juice than people think, and you can show him the math over a year. Same with security, a 15 year old router probably hasn't seen a firmware update since Obama was in office and that's a real risk he can get sued over. Sometimes you just gotta talk in the language they actually care about, which is money and fear.
