You can still blacklist Twitter and any lazy ass ‘journalists’ that make an article based on a Twitter post and hotlink to said post. Many ways to say fuck Elon Musk

Edit: also Reddit. Fuck spez

Edit: also Facebook. Fuck Zuck. Glad he can finally afford to put pubes on his head tho

My (now) wife had a poster of the Roadster in her bedroom when it was a concept car and she was in her teens. Her parents eventually got a Model S but now they talk about how embarassed they feel driving it around. She must’ve had that poster from back when Elon was just that balding kid from Paypal lol

I have a newer C4 and I don’t think it’s bad. It’s not too obtrusive and there are guides to opt out of everything, but then again I’m not too concerned with data privacy in regard to my television, so I might be biased

I think the biggest thing is convenience. It’s a lot easier for the launcher to do some handshakes and check/update to current patch. Other way is client opening, client closing, patch applied, client opens yet again, that type of deal

Fallout 4. I think they did most things right with Survival mode and I’d consider it an entirely different game than the vanilla ‘fast travel and save anywhere’ experience, and it’d be fun to see an even more polished version with more focus on surviving in a world where NPCs are also trying to survive as opposed to more mechanics that don’t really broach that aspect such as settlement building. If they made a Fallout 5 that was a bit more challenging in that regard I’d probably consider it a masterpiece

About a year ago a homeless woman had a miscarriage in my city and a couple local media outlets jumped on it, reporting that ‘police had found a dead fetus in an encampment’. Ya know, after she called 911 because she had a miscarriage. Really helped solidify my belief that a lot of people would rather just stigmatize them than do anything else

I have one of the drawers and I’d consider myself organized. I try to keep it organized with one of these rather large Ikea Stodja drawer organizers. I used to use silverware organizers but stumbled upon this thing, 14"x20". They come in other shapes and sizes too but is a lot handier than using a regular silverware organizer because the compartments are pretty large.

Pens and notepads/post-it notes in one, batteries and an Eneloop wall charger in another, hair ties/lip gloss/rubber bands in another, big compartment holds a roll of packing tape and various other tapes, and another slot has a couple pairs of scissors.

I’d recommend getting a larger organizer just so you can compartmentalize larger things together, something a silverware organizer usually can’t accomplish

Not only bladder cancer but a whole bunch of things. I used to run home from work and I would always pee right beforehand so I wouldn’t risk having to find some sort of place to pee, but then I started peeing blood every couple of weeks when my mileage went up to around the 10 mile mark. Apparently hematuria can happen from basically having a totally empty bladder chafe itself raw if you run long enough lol. I quit peeing before leaving work after my doctor recommended giving that a shot and it cleared up

It’s a small business and there aren’t any sort of laws regarding naming conventions or titles/roles that must be filled. Sometimes ‘owner’ is who runs the show after all

Technically yeah, colloquially no sane person would judge another for calling such a thing a tank

Makes sense considering many protections don’t extend to civil matters, and he wasn’t even acting in any sort of governmental role at neither the time of the incident which compelled him to make the payment nor at the time of the payment itself.

The payment happened in October and this may be a shitty analogy but imo it’s like someone running a dozen red lights because they’re late to a police officer job interview. I mean, it may help them get the job but they’re acting as a private citizen and not in any sort of governmental capacity and it’d be absolutely bonkers for them to argue that they should retroactively have any sort of immunity on the basis that they did in fact get the job

I like watching the changes. The world and everything in it, including me, isn’t in stasis. People get old, I’m getting old, wild to look back at ‘young me’ or think of a close friend at a time when they were totally unfamiliar. My hometown is 10x larger and looks wildly different but I can still point out some unchanged spots when I go to visit.

I wish I could stop time and do whatever but I acknowledge that I was thrust into this with no say in any of it, so I just strive to be at peace with it I suppose

Torx is cool and all but all the touted virtues such as less cam-out go out the window if you have to drive them in at wonky angles, like tight fitting spaces. If you gotta angle the driver it’s not gonna seat well at all, apt to jump and wear out your bit. And if your only T20 rolls away and falls under a deck, yuck, 10mm problems.

Phillips has a place and that place is ‘a wonky place to hold a power drill’. That said I’m a huge fan of square head because it’s a happy medium between those two

Any important document I have is named ‘yyyymmdd(number)(briefdescription)’. Sort by name or date, I don’t care

The electrician equivalent is adding a 20A dedicated circuit along the wall and just snaking it all over the place through laziness (efficiency), and many moons later deciding to mount some tracks for a closet organizer but the voltage tester is freaking out like the wall is a game of Minesweeper

You seemed to have dropped this

I just upgraded because we got a new condo and I’ve never had an awesome TV, and I’d say it’s totally worth it if you can put it to use, but with a decent 4K TV it’s a lot more than just the resolution. You’ll probably get HDR and 120Hz and Dolby Atmos and anti-jitter settings and upscaling and all sorts of crap and that really does seem to do a lot, compared to a midrange 1080p TV from >10 years ago, even if the source is 1080p. I even noticed a huge difference playing Baldur’s Gate 1 on Switch. For reference I went from some midrange thing to an LG C4 65" (seems to be the best ‘balling on a budget’ TV out there based on reviews, I mean there are better TVs out there but this thing delivers 95% of it for half the price)

The most common argument I’ve heard, totally boiled down: “unions just protect the bad workers and if there weren’t unions the best workers would be able to get get paid more than those guys”.

But I also hear this kinda stuff predominantly from people who aren’t in professions that commonly benefit from collective bargaining. Most pipefitters understand that even a free rider benefits from collective bargaining, and that without unions it’s more often a race to the bottom rather than getting obscene raises for meritous reasons. The dude who drives parts for NAPA or whatever is usually the guy to say unions are dumb

They’ll be thinking the same thing tho and if there is a greater than 20% chance of them pulling the lever it’d be worse in terms of losing family members than not pulling at all.

But in terms of overall death, not pulling the lever is 1 or 4, and pulling the lever is 4 or 13
