Used to be that Google offered applications and services that rivaled or surpassed the established pay-for alternatives. Now… FOSS is the new Google, Google is the new Microsoft, and Microsoft is innovating a whole new category of shitty and ubiquitous slopware.
Claim it as a loss on your taxes since it is an investment. Now it is “worth” whatever taxes were paid on 635,000 dollars of income, which I would guess is in the 100K - 300k range.
I had one tell me that I needed a CVT flush. Which was news to me since my car was a 6spd manual. He was confused about the computer being wrong. I was confused about how they got the car up on the lift without using the 3rd pedal.
Edit: this was a Midas, not an AutoZone.
Or getting worked up about the nationality/skin color of fictional characters where nationality/race is not a central issue to the plot or character.
Mine are. Everyone else’s aren’t.

Speaking as someone who went from a “sporty coupe” to a crossover, I know your pain and I fucking hate that I had to join the “every other asshole club.”
I’ve heard it so many times, and it’s probably the dumbest thing I’ve heard about electric cars other than the guy who wanted to know how you would drive your EV at night if it charged from solar panels.
Plus, have you seen all the iron and other metals that have to be mined shipped, refined, shipped, and then made in to parts, shipped again, and then assembled, and finally shipped to the dealer for a single ICE car?
MachE has a sound effect. Frankly, it’s kinda sad.
Typically, you just get a tow to an EV charger (or even a residential outlet) and charge there.
I keep a spare charger and extension cord in the frunk when traveling a long distance. I can literally pull up to any place with an outlet and charge in an emergency. By the time a tow truck would show up, or by the time it would take to walk to the nearest gas station and walk back, the car would probably get enough charge to make it to a fast charger.
A word of caution to anyone charging an EV on an extension cord… You need to fucking watch it the whole time, and check the temp of your outlet and cord. Mine got uncomfortably warm, but not hot enough to burn. If the cord gets too hot to hold, then you need to stop, and get a better (usually thicker) extension cord.
If road salt is getting into your tires, and then into the sealed battery in your TPMS… you got other bigger issues. Maybe make sure you have all your valve cap isn’t broken or missing?
I’m using ModOrganizer 2, and it seems to work fine, but you need a separate installation for every game.
Because I don’t really run Windows 2000 on my main machine. It was sarcasm.
Plus… Running mint on my main, and I’ve tried a couple of emulators and VMs to try to run MW2 and none of them do a good job of it, especially if you want to use a controller or joystick. Frankly, If I had a real heavy hankering for my vintage games, I’d just build an airgapped legacy system specifically for running that game.
I went from 10 to Mint back in January.
Pretty easy switchover. Very few issues. As a lifelong Windows user, installing apps, keeping everything updated and backed up could not be easier. Only issue I ran into during install was my WiFi device would not show up. Had to turn off fast boot and then power cycle the system and literally pull the plug to completely reset the adapter. Other than that, everything worked perfectly “out of the box”. No fucked up driver install process. No hour long updates. It literally worked perfectly within minutes. All the shit I went through with every single Windows install honestly feels like a cruel fucking joke right now when I type it out.
Well, I don’t know if you saw the news, but Aptera’a first vehicle rolled off their low volume production line yesterday!
Maybe they will make deliveries this year…
Brutal. I guess you can always swap the tires yourself and then stop by a tire shop and ask them to reprogram it. I feel for you.
Right, but puberty involves a series of hormone changes that have permanent physiological effects. If HRT can be started before puberty then it’s much easier to transition, and that would really help with body image insecurities.
I can’t speak about this from the perspective of a trans person, but I was pretty sure I was a boy at 12 years old, I think if I felt like a girl trapped in a boy’s body, I would have been equally sure of that. What’s the harm in allowing someone to be on puberty blockers until they are 18, or however arbitrarily old they need to be, in order to decide what they want to look like, and who they want to be? Obviously disregarding the very well documented harm of not transitioning and building an identity during some of the most formative and social years of a person’s life.
Same. Switched my personal machine to Mint instead of “upgrading” to 11. I have to use 11 for my work device, and it’s not hyperbole to say that it gets worse every single week.
AI isn’t the future, it’s the IoT of this decade.
No, windows 11 has been out for like 5 years now.
Or… He either didn’t actually pay that money… Or the money went to someone or something he wanted to give 635,000 dollars to already, and writing it off on his taxes is an additional side benefit.
