OTA updates are not an EV thing. That is all modern cars.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as a Gull, is in fact, Sea/Gull, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, Sea plus Gull. Gull is not an categorization unto itself, but rather another component of a full identity made useful by the kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species components comprising a full identification as defined by its scientific classification.

This would drive teenage me crazy, fr fr on god.

Sometimes games ship updates that mess with the game. I have over 20,000 hours in WoW. But my play habits from over almost 2 decades ago don’t reflect the current quality of the game.

And some people compulsively play games they don’t enjoy because “once I get to the next thing, it will finally be fun!” And maybe this person had an awakening and realized that they will never get there… Or after this amount of time had a drastic change of heart.

And some people leave games open when they aren’t playing.

I’m not saying this is normal or necessarily healthy, but it’s not unfeasible.

It isn’t just about ungoogling things though. Having a monoculture in the browser space means that if Google makes a push to favor ads, say by removing certain extension support from their browser engine that everyone uses, then the entire internet suffers. It is effectively a monopoly.

Mozilla tries really hard sometimes to be unappealing, but there is value in not just letting Google have full control over the internet.

Its possible that being the platform meant they wouldn’t have been bought up.

When old testament says to love someone instead of just smiting people, you know that shit is serious.

Its liberal in the sense of “we don’t like Kamala’s stance either, but the alternative has said he would “finish the job” in Palestine and is also anti LGBT, so if you dislike kamala purely about Palestine you should REALLY dislike the opponent and actively seek to prevent that from ever happening”

$6996.99 per year is $134.56 per week. If you get 5 books per week, that’s $26.91 per book. Given the picture includes a single book costing $19.95, that feels very reasonable. Maybe it’s 6 books a week, maybe some books are more expensive.

That’s a very consistent habit though.

I get conventional mail marked up like it is from the manufacturer claiming my warranty is expiring.

With the added fun bonus that all the things they claim to cover are engine related, and my car is an EV with no engine.

They’re just trying to keep government small and out of your business… or something

You could put a big flashlight up in place of the sun and it would be better, or something. I dunno lol

I would hope the whole thing is a joke in general.

“The sun gives us light when it’s ‘already’ bright” is where the real logic breaks down. “I don’t need <thing> because I already have <benefit from thing>” is circular logic.

So of course we wouldn’t have sunlight at night without the sun. but we also wouldn’t have sunlight at night without the moon.

Whether we want to call it “more useful” than the sun… it is just as useful as the sun at night. We need both of them for the system to work. I was just trying to snarkily emphasize that we shouldn’t downplay the moon because it is “just” reflecting sunlight.

A typo is when you slip up and type/get something wrong because you’re moving too fast to pay attention.

Spelling a word wrong because you don’t know how to spell it isn’t a typo. This person doesn’t strike me as an intellectual that knows complex spellings like “afraid”

I know nothing about this specific person. But the American Republican party is on a bit of a hypocritical purity crusade. They claim that porn is bad. They are the ones getting all worked up about other peoples sexual life, because it somehow affects the sanctity of their marriage.

So this article is pointing out his hypocrisy. He is doing something wrong by his own standards, so what room does he have to try to make laws about his stupid beliefs when he doesn’t even follow them himself.

Because otherwise if you have too many small letters in a row it stops looking like a plural and more like a misspelled word. Because capitalization differences you can make more sense of As but not so much as.

But if the moon wasn’t there, there would be no light reflected. Doesn’t matter the source, we have light at night because of the moon

“This hardware works fine and even has compatible software that it works great with. But I’m going to prefer the broken software for other reasons. And that means it’s the hardware’s fault.”

Software that is built to be compatible with a wide variety of hardware should be compatible with a wide variety of hardware.

If software can’t handle a 16.5:16 aspect ratio, then that’s bad software. I don’t care how weird of a niche thing that is… just make your software abstract enough to handle those cases.

It’s 2024, any resolution/aspect ratio/DPI combo should be supportable. There’s enough variety of monitors out there that we should have a solution for handling things on the fly without needing to have a predefined solution.

One of my (otherwise random) WoW guild members had my grandma as his kindergarten teacher.
