      Also working on my documentation for my job for when I leave. I had to learn the environment from scratch with little help from anyone here. Next person shouldn't have to go through that. Hopefully I can move from desktop support to an admin at some point

            You'd be done for hitting 80 down here. Loss of license on the spot, car impounded.

            That is ~130 kph

              and making U-turns from wherever they feel like it.

              Unless there is a posted law about it, u-turns are the required turning mechanism. You have to know that to get your drivers license in NY. Because they are the safest turning type, you are required to do them unless you are physically unable (not enough space) or in a specifically posted place not to.

              They require you to know all the turns in their order of safety because if you do anything else a cop is allowed to ticket you for unsafe turning.

              I don't understand... please provide more info.

              What do you mean? When choosing a turn, you have to be as safe as possible. Obviously turning around is necessary when driving sometimes. So since u-turns are the safest type of turn, they are required to be used whenever possible, since "being safe" is the most important part of driving law.

              what makes u-turns the safest type of turn? versus what? a right or left turn? I'm just lost.

                    Left and right are not "turning around". As opposed to two and three point turns.

                        I just saw an ad on YouTube for a telephony vendor advertising that they've onboarded over 1,000 users to their phone system.

                        Um, like nothing wrong with being small but, that's SO small, who would advertise that? And they talk about how that's their volume over three years.

                          Maybe it was just one client?

                              Anyone know of a "role playing game", and I use that lightly, that gives you the feeling of traditional D&D... but instead of D&D-like game play is more of a murder or other type of mystery? Can be fantasy, or not, but where you can buy like mystery stories and run a "campaign" where the players have to solve whatever mystery there is?

                                  Not a fan of mysteries, so no idea. I would be surprised if something does not exist though.

                                      No, just horror really, IMO.

                                        Maybe Gabriel Knight - a Sierra point and click. Old stuff. Maybe on GOG.

                                          Horror mysteries?

                                          Yep there are some really good mysteries that are out there. They all generally have a "horror" slant to them though. It's a decent, if a bit complicated, game system based on percentile dice.

                                          If you don't want the horror aspect, something like Bubblegumshoe may be good?

                                            @scottalanmiller are you looking to have pre-made scenarios to throw at players or just to have a system dedicated to mysteries (murder/horror/otherwise) that you make up yourself?
