I love Jerry, but I feel this bit could have been done a lot better by Tim Allen. It's true, though. At least, if the men in the neighborhood are friends, acquaintances, or merely friendly people, they generally want to be involved in any technical activity, even if that involvement is drinking a beer and shooting the shit.
And we learn things from the activity, too. Just like /u/cornerzcan pointed out. Those conversations happen. Fifteen years ago I was sitting in my driveway working on replacing the brake pads on my Nissan. I was struggling to compress the pistons on the rear disc brakes when a guy I had never met from a few houses down comes walking up the driveway carrying one of these. Super nice guy, said he had noticed me struggling and realized I was in the same exact situation he was just a year or two prior.
Without his friendly assistance, I might have destroyed those pistons. At the very least, he made the brake job a lot easier.
OK Son, have a listen.
I'm 47, and I'm the Army. Not because I have to, but because I like it and tanks are cool. I make YouTube videos about the Dodge Stealth I am restomodding I wrote a book. I drove race cars professionally, and engineered race cars professionally. Fought in Afghanistan. Worked in Detroit. (Had an office on 8 Mile Road). I've been a blacksmith, a graphics designer, a 3D animator, a software coder. That website? Written with vi on my home Linux server. Poke around, and you can find my code in the Linux kernel and in the ldap libraries. My home shop has a lathe/mill, two welders, and a friggin' lift.
So if you want to dick-measure about "skookum people", Son, I have you covered in spades.
So listen up - "Universal Basic Income" is coming, it's the best goddamn thing for the world that I can imagine, and it's about fucking time because Western civilization is in for a rough go if it doesn't.
What we don't need is young whippersnappers like yourself pissing on it for reasons like "pride" and "Mother Government" and other horseshit like that.
Get your head out of your rectum, take off your MAGA hat, and maybe read a goddamn book.

Unfortunately, some of the "alternative" types already thought of that. Apparently touching that lets you use the "earth's natural energy to improve health and well-being"!

I'm reading this right now.
We'd have fast calculators that cost more than anyone could afford, and would probably only be for science and accounting.
These things are actually commercially available. I picked one up at Harbor Freight one time but I've been too chicken--- I mean, I haven't had a reason to use it yet.
This Old Tony talks about using one in his Custom Springer Stock build.

My parents just got back from Kilimanjaro. We're big on the outdoors (my cousin has a few books about climbing) but I wish to hell I could convince them to try some psychedelics. Dad and I are planning on doing the mont blanc at some point but ah... that's a little serious to be messing around on.
Kilimanjaro though... that would have been an incredible place for it. A volcano next to a glacier.
It did go critical, but it did not power the plane. The reactor was placed on a plane with conventional propulsion and followed by two planes. One was filled with detection equipment and the other was full of airborne Marines to set up a containment zone around a possible crash site. Source
There were at least two test reactiors that went critical to test the entire propulaion system, but neither went airborne. A third naked reactor was built outside of Dawsonville, GA to blast various aircraft parts with high levels of radiation to make sure they could hold up over time. Source
Edit: sources. Second source is lacking, but I had read three books that have touched on what happened at the lab. Atomic Awakening and Atomic Adventures are really good reads. Apparently there was a 1000' circle of land around the naked reactor that absolutely no life existed during the site's operation.
