TIL Lillian E. M. Gilbreth was one of the first female engineers to earn a Ph.D. She and her husband Frank B. Gilbreth, were both efficiency experts in the area of motion study and human factors. The book Cheaper by the Dozen, was written by two of their children, and in 2003 became a movie. britannica.com/biography/…

Frank Gilbreth Sr.

Father of 12 and inspiration for the books and films Cheaper by The Dozen, Frank Gilbreth reportedly had this exchange when pulling up to an intersection with his car load of kids:

person: hey buddy, what are you doing with all those kids, building an ark?

Frank: Just doing what the good lord told me. All I need now is a jackass! HOP IN!

I'm looking for a documentary on Frank and Lillith Gilbreth - they were the inspiration behind that movie 'Cheaper by the Dozen', and were scientist who studied motion and efficiency. They are, among other things, responsible for the current standard kitchen layout

They were pretty influential scientists, I'm surprised that no one has done a doc on them (that I can find). They were scientific experts at efficiency, time, and motion, and are responsible for some pretty cool stuff that still affects us today. here and here are there bios on Wiki.

I’ve found a hidden bunker behind Franks facility

When visiting Fristad Rock, go behind Franks facility and head down. You will walk into a bunker and a man greets you from behind a glass window.

Photo of the room

He tells you he knows you, and then proceeds to let gas out from the floor. I have the iron lungs perk so I do not die from this

There is a hackable antenna which opens a box. There’s a note inside the box

Letter inside the box

Below the stairs to the left of the room there are levers which seem to have to be opened in some sort of order??

The room filling up with smoke

I can pull the levers, but after 3 have been pulled they reset. The levers are marked with the following numbers from left to right

132 122 123 142 222 023 323 027

Image of the levers beneath the stairs

Edit: there is a whiteboard behind the door with 2 numbers on it. Pull the corresponding levers and press the red button to stop the gas

I can see a trinket in the mans office so there must be a way in?

Edit: came back in the morning and there is a rocky entrance revealed. Inside it has a 4 digit code and tells Colt to β€˜Shut it down’. Where can I find the code?

What happened to Darrin Frank Bunker?

DANA POINT – Like all mysteries at sea, the fate of novice sailor Darrin Frank Bunker may forever remain as murky as the ocean depths.

On the morning of Oct. 3, the Aliso Viejo man set sail for San Diego from Dana Point Harbor in a 30-foot sailboat he had bought two months earlier.

Bunker’s dream was to live on the sailboat, said Narik McArthur, who sold Bunker his rebuilt Catalina sloop Bug Trap for $18,000.

For a few weeks, McArthur subleased his permanent slip in Dana Point Harbor so Bunker, 42, could get used to the boat. He gave him sailing tips as the two men cruised the harbor.

When Bunker set sail that morning in calm seas and under clear skies, with the Santa Ana winds kicking up and the offshore breeze blowing at a steady 15 knots, he told McArthur he had found a new home for his boat in San Diego.

It was around 10 a.m.

β€œYou’re going to get caught in the dark,” McArthur recalls telling Bunker of the eight- to 10-hour trip.

β€œNo problem,” said Bunker, a sturdily built man of about 6-foot-3 who ran his own online game company – a guy who appeared to mostly keep to himself. β€œI’ve checked the charts. I have a radio in case I need help.”

McArthur never saw or heard from Bunker again.

On Sunday, a Kauai man was fishing about 19 miles off the main island town of Lihue when he spotted Bug Trap bobbing in the sea. He called the Coast Guard.

Officials found an empty boat, its cabin slightly damaged by fire and its mast torn loose by the unforgiving elements.

They found Bunker’s laptop and other computer equipment inside the cabin, along with cases of Corona beer and sodas, canned food and other supplies.

They found cartons of Marlboro Red cigarettes on a sleeper sofa, and snuffed-out butts in ashtrays.

But they found no traces of Bunker.

β€œIt looks like he was living aboard the boat,” said Kai R. Christensen, the officer in charge at the U.S. Coast Guard station in Kauai.

Hawaii police and fire officials said Tuesday that they have ruled out foul play. They said the fire appears to have been accidentally started – although they haven’t pinpointed the cause. The investigation continues.

Officially, Bunker is missing – but Christensen wasn’t hopeful.

β€œWe definitely wouldn’t assume anyone (could) survive alone at sea without a boat for that long,” he said.

Details about Bunker were scant Tuesday. His last known business address was in Aliso Viejo – for Posse Entertainment, his computer-game company. He also has lived in Michigan.

[Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines] The Crustal Peak Bunker was designed Frank Lloyd Wright

I was watching a fan edit of Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines called "The Coming Storm" (fantastic btw) when it hit me. The bunker at Crystal Peak that John and Kate escaped to at the end of the movie was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.

When they first drop into the bunker, John says "These computers are 30 years old." That's when I thought. Who would be building this place that long ago? In this trash heap of a movie, judgment day takes place in 2004. So 30 years ago, would be 1974. The presidents's seal is all over that place. That would mean that the president at the time, Gerald Ford built it. Okay, cold war, yes. But would he have really cared enough to spend that money? And how long would have it taken to build. A decade? So i went trough the presidents. Kennedy for sure would of because bay of pigs. But he wouldn't have had time to approve the budget. (RIP) But Truman? Eisenhower? ABSOLUTELY! So i started looking into designers from their time periods...

Google it. Architects in the 40's and 50's. Frank Lloyd Wright is all over the place. Now look at his designs. He SPECIALIZED in organic architecture. Do you even need a definition for that? Anyways. I mean just look at the rocks built into the layout? Or these tall 30 foot ceilings carved into in an effing mountain? Or the extreme extra effort to hand design the railings? True, the railings don't exactly match his style but still, who does that? I compared a couple other architects from the 40's and 50's and there's nothing close. It has to be him.

So why are there computers from the 70's? That one is easy. A budget to build is drastically different than one to maintain and upgrade. I propose that Harry Truman, the first and only president to order a nuclear strike on it's enemies, knew that one day they would strike back. So he ordered the construction of this bunker to safeguard the leadership of the USA. There was also a budget to maintain the bunker into at least the 70's, when likely Jimmy Carter saw the light at the end of the tunnel and ordered that money to a more sensible location. Then 30 or so years later, in walks John and Kate.

TL;DR - Frank Lloyd Wright designed the bunker in the 40's, and it was maintained and updated until Jimmy Carter cancelled the project.

Raiders in D2 bunker need to have their spawn rate increased

Or at least change the quest that requires you to kill raiders there. I am about 25 raids into doing nothing but running straight to D2, flipping the power switch, and scouring the entire tunnels down there to find raiders so I can complete No Place for Renegades, and have seen raiders down there ONCE, and only 2 of them spawned. I get that they wanted to nerf the viability of farming D2 raiders and then extracting underground, but it seems they always fail to consider the collateral damage these changes can make for other aspects of the game - same thing happened with Killa's spawn changes and the Huntsman Path quest to kill him.
