Ah thank you, that DOES make more sense.

I’m having a hard time understanding this article. They say the Teslas have the highest rating of deadly accidents, but then go on to say Tesla ranked #6 on the list of fatalities, then once again stated Tesla was the worst. So what happened to the other five vehicles that had a higher fatality rating?

I haven’t watched the video, but when I was younger I started developing an intolerance. I always eat a bowl of cereal in the morning, and at that time, about an hour later while I was driving in to work I started getting gut-wrenching cramps every day. Stopped eating the cereal and it immediately went away. That was all fine & dandy, but after several years of not eating breakfast at all I decided to hell with it and started working on it again on the weekends. However I’m guessing something else must have also changed because it didn’t really take that long to get back to eating it regularly again, and I haven’t stopped since.

If they switched to linux the ice cream would be colder and even smoother.

Sounds like a great sales pitch… “PoS machines, but unlike Windows-based devices ours continue to work after the first six months!”

Funny, when I think of Windows, reliability and stability are the last things on my mind. I mean, if they could build a reliable release then why isn’t that shipped with all computers? You know, like with linux, the stable version is also the current release. Basically your description makes it sound like what’s really making Windows so unreliable is all the crapware that Microsoft forces down your throat.

Hard to say for sure. He’s on Facebook so I don’t have a way to see what he posts, but my wife still has an account there and said he’s in some of the same groups as her. She’s pretty aware of what he’s posting and they’ve actually had conversations in person about the whole immigration thing. The rest… yeah I just don’t know.

This started on Wednesday, almost immediately after Trump’s victory was announced. By Friday it was already being reported in grade schools because asshole parents enjoy raising asshole sons, and Trump tells people that it’s ok to be the absolute worst human being they can be.

I have a friend who is a hard Republican. We generally don’t talk politics, but after this started last week he was posting things online being offensive towards women and POC (and the whole “illegals took my job and healthcare”) so I finally had to call him out. His response was basically that he wasn’t aware of any increased discrimination happening against women, therefore he didn’t believe it was happening. I’ve known the guy for 40 years but this may be the thing that breaks our friendship. He claims to be an advocate for people’s rights yet he is painfully unaware of the world around him.

Quite interesting advocating from 1st Amendment rights, while also also deleting content that he personally doesn’t like.

That’s a shame since literally everyone should distrust Edge, given Microsoft’s history with browsers (and everything else). I don’t think anyone matches Microsoft’s caviler attitude of “We know there are hundreds of gaping security holes that allow attackers to take full admin control of your computer, but we’re just going to mark those bugs as will-not-fix and blame the users when something goes wrong.”

You do realize we’re talking about the same society that requires a warning label to not eat the shampoo?

Putting the “dumb” in dumber. I don’t know how people can be so wasteful. I mean when I buy a car, I expect to not have to take it in for work for a very long time. Imagine my surprise today when I went to get an emissions test and found out the back end of my exhaust pipe has rusted off. The last time I had any work done on it (other than oil changes) was before COVID, when someone hit me. I drove my previous (first) vehicle for 24 years before deciding I needed to get an SUV for towing capacity. Man if I had that kind of crazy money to blow on a cheap cybertruck, I’d be using it for donations or something. I can “prove” my worth by the smiles at the children’s hospital.

Wow, did I hit that one or what? And it’s just so sad.

At least the Delorian had character. You can’t say that about this abomination.

His whining at the beginning certainly had me wondering too.

And then there are the comments – “There just haters there mad cause they can’t afford one them self’s…” Like really, did you even make it beyond third grade? And this is the kind of person who is sticking up for Cybertruck owners? Maybe there are a number of reasons why we point and laugh…

Coming next week – Hamster Ball Desks!

Are you sure this is new? I’d swear all the M-series iMacs I’ve ordered for work over the last few years recharged the keyboard and mouse through USB-C

Seems like a good opportunity to remind folks about the Kiwix project, which allows you to download local private copies of select information such as Wikipedia. It was originally created to provide offline access to content for countries that were otherwise blocked, but events like this have sparked some recent discussion about archiving older files to preserve history.

That’s a shame to hear, but yeah they’ve certainly changed since I signed on. Not that I expect any other to be better at this point.

It’s weird to see T-mobile taking this stance. I switched to them years ago because they were one of the few that supported unlocked phones, and even offered them for sale. Their policies might have changed on this, but I just bought an unlocked phone off Ebay this Summer and all I needed to do was pop my sim card into the new device. Hell I had to specifically install the visual voicemail app because there wasn’t any bloatware on the phone when I got it. So I guess I’m not following what their complaint is about?
