I own a station wagon, a suburban, and previously a truck. When I owned the truck it was full of shit or hauling stuff constantly. I sold it the moment I didn't need it. The suburban replaced it because I refuse to put my dogs in the bed while towing the boat to go camping. The wagon is a people hauler because it's payload is too low most of the time.

There are quite a few people in this world who actually use their trucks. I also completely hate seeing people who own trucks but don't use them.

Having just pulled repaired and put an engine back in one of my cars. No ICE cars are much harder to repair. Range will probably be an issue for a while. What I'm really excited for is hybrid light duty vehicles like a 1 ton hybrid would be great.

Samsung was very transparent about their fuck up with the note 7. The article you linked makes it very clear it was a connection issue or a different manufacturer. At this point this is equivalent to the burn banana peels to get high or you eat dozens of spiders while you sleep internet lies.

So it's one of the companies contributing to the dying diversity online. Almost all of these websites and services have become awful without adblock or require a paid account.

Middle aged white dude in 'merica here. The amount of legitimate racists who openly identify themselves when I drive my old beat up pickup truck is insane.

We have a real problem that requires we focus on race until we remove racists from power. Well meaning people are just those fighting the issue of racism. You may see it different but we won't fix it by ignoring it.

Biden is literally trying something and you act like Dems do nothing. Fuck off and just vote Republican like you were already planning. Remember to bring the lube so they don't fuck you dry.

Yep and going around arguing that women are more lonely doesn't add much to the discussion IMO. It's not a competition and the output of dying younger is the primary fact we know about gender health differences.

It is a complicated discussion with a lot more inputs than just loneliness though. The anti feminist angle is kind of strange, never thought much of it.

Women are better at expressing that are lonely. From what I understand it's unclear who is more lonely because men don't admit to being lonely. It's probably more important to not argue about and just be aware that old people are often very lonely.

I'm at Disneyland with my family RN and we mainly came because this week was insanely cheap for hotels. My hotel basically touches the convention center and there is almost no one here for blizzcon. It's dying.

The conversations I've overheard are so sad. They all justify simping for blizzard like addicts. So much random misogyny too.

I used to love blizzard games but just the people I've listened to concern me.

Thought my work was bad. We at least can use VMs. I literally can't do my job without one, Rockwell being what it is. Companies don't like upgrading PLC software so I need to use old versions of windows occasionally to run old Rockwell stuff.

There was also a bug for a bit that would brick win11 PCs when trying to update PLC firmware, fun stuff.

IMO reddit won but only by engaging a new audience. It removed the 1 post per subreddit on the front page without an announcement, modified the upvote algorithm to make upvote numbers seem larger than they are, and comments per upvote are lower than 10 years ago. Basically engagement is way down for people who use it like a forum aggregate. But engagement is way up by people who are migrating off of Instagram and similar platforms. I used to feel weird about being on reddit but now I have my wife's 20 mostly female coworkers asking me about it. Reddit has a new audience it appeals to and it's creating a weird issue because for some dumbass reason they thought the unpaid engagement generators would stick around after they fucked everything up for a few short term dollars.

No, they just aren't as stupid and unorganized as Republicans. They can do basic math and have discussions in good faith so they know it's not worth bringing it to a vote they know will fail. You are expecting them to be chest pounding idiots when you know they aren't.
