rebranding of minivans

Except minivans are at least good at the one thing they’re made for, hauling people and their stuff. SUVs try to do everything, so they do everything badly.

In general, traffic violations are not technically crimes, they’re civil matters, therefore there doesn’t have to be a victim. Also burden of proof is much lower.

I’m quite sure it was George Jefferson…

interesting if you’re interested in the topic

The first rule of tautology club is the first rule of tautology club.

I wanted one a few years ago, but couldn’t find anything that wasn’t from the 90s and/or beat to shit…

Enshittification intensifies!

Both bad is not the same as both the same. They’re differently bad. That’s the part you seem to be missing.

Testicles and the sack of rome

Well, I don’t pay for premium, and I use an adblocker, and I haven’t had any problems. Not having a problem doesn’t prove anything if they’re only targeting a subset of their users…

You know what else spammers and criminals often do? Breathe. We need to make that more difficult.

I ran into this recently. Trying to get access to a credit union’s system as a vendor, they had a captcha that was the old style image of distorted text, with a text box labeled “are you a robot?”. Having the tendency to take things literally, I initially typed “no” into the box. That was not the right answer.

Pretty sure I’ve heard of at least a couple cases where small children accidentally knocked a car into drive and caused serious damage, but that’s not really the point I was making…

IV was the one I spent the most time on, so that makes sense. But with V it’s not a lack of depth, more a lack of continuity. Of course it’s been so long since I played it I can’t remember any specific examples, I just remember being disappointed, and thinking they spent so much time/money on the physics, they had nothing left for the story …

[gestures wildly at everything]

No, when Star Wars first came out in 1977 and the first home video releases (including the laserdisc transfer that was included with the 2006 DVD release as a bonus feature) it was just Star Wars.

In other words… differently.

All the food you have ever bought sure, but what about eaten? I’ve eaten wild blueberries, venison jerky that a coworker shot, gutted, and processed himself, my grandma used to grow rhubarb in her garden and made pies and jam from it, my other grandma grows tomatoes & broccoli…

Related to that, Abe Vigoda is still dead.

Anyone remember Jamie Lee Curtis was secretly a hermaphrodite?

Yes, I remember that one!

And Catherine the Great really liked horses…

Newton’s theory of gravity … severely inaccurate.

Except it’s not - it’s accurate enough within certain limits to still be useful today. It’s only inaccurate in extreme cases. Relativity is more accurate, sure, but outside of the extremes, it’s more complex than Newton’s and not worth the extra trouble.
