Honestly we’re probably way too late to stop that from happening. That’s been part of Elon’s plans for a long time. Battery power, robot tech, space technology. And Elon isn’t the only player eyeing what’s out there.

I keep reading about how they don’t have enough helium supply. Is everything fake news?

The same regulatory burden falls on small mom and pop locations and makes doing business impossible for anything but billion dollar corps who are only profit-motivated which drives down wages and leads to the current cost of living crisis that most of the west is experiencing.

If you fall down the stairs, that should essentially never be a lawsuit in my opinion unless there was extreme negligence on the part of the property owner. If you burn yourself it should be your fault. All of this unnecessary regulation and liability is what makes everything so unaffordable.

I’d say it’s more because of bullshit lawsuits. 90,% of the warning labels we have should not be necessary. We used to just accept that if you did stupid shit you might lose a couple fingers or die. Now it runs businesses into the ground and we have created a massive leech of an industry that is insurance. Insurance and lawyers are to blame for all of this.

That tree eats a lot of birds and mice. It looks exactly like my tree, which is also a predator.

They’re also kinda weird. Unlike wine,

That makes complete sense and I can see it. However I still stand by the body of the vehicle in the sketch looking more like a Crosstrek. I bought one for my wife but we had a situation where we needed to switch cars for the last year, so I’ve been looking at one a lot more recently.

That looks like a Crosstrek at the end. Is Subaru working on self-driving cars? Maybe this really is the reality of the future.

I’m all for an LS swap. Let’s LS swap the world!

My local B league hockey team does discount nights with cheap seats and cheap options for beer/soft drinks and snacks. My wife and I will get tickets, have a few drinks and snacks and spend a total of maybe a little over $20. Even on full price nights it’s maybe $50 for the same.

Plus there’s the fights that almost always break out. Or, as the saying goes, there was a fight and a hockey game broke out.

Hey thank you for your opinion. I disagree. I don’t mind at all that you express your opinion. But everyone has preferences. I’m really comfortable with mine. You can have yours, and mine remain unchanged.

I agree that men without beards aren’t masculine men, but I find absolutely nothing about shaved dudes attractive. I like a bush on pussy too, though. I’m all about natural. Plastic surgery, or too much makeup, too much shaving, all of that is a turnoff.

I would be your neighbor but I would be gone here and there to visit my wife who would be living somewhere among the world’s hottest beach places.

Never put your PC on the floor unless it’s your company’s shitty workstation tower that really needs to be replaced.

My area got flooded with Flock cameras during Biden’s last year. Both parties want the surveillance no question. But they also want to be in power. God I hate those cameras.

I was trimming a tree on my property and a big branch kicked back and broke my arm. I said, “It’ll be fine.”

It’s fine.

Everything I have with DDR5 is running Win11. I have some DDR3 machines on Win10 tho. And of course DDR4. Just in my house I have three pretty decent DDR4 gaming rigs with compatible CPUs, SSDs, and nice video cards 3070ti and 4070ti, but the motherboard isn’t up to spec. I don’t like Win11 anyway though. I’ll have to figure those out soon I guess.

It isn’t only misuse. Sick now means very nice. That didn’t happen because people didn’t understand the meaning of the word sick. Language just changes, and dictionaries acknowledge common use.

Yes, in this case it probably came from generations of people not understanding the difference between a cow and a bull. And most people only see cows irl, not a lot of places have fields full of bulls. I was pretty much raised understanding that “cow” was both a general term and a specific term. No one uses the term bovine in real speech.

It once was wrong. When it becomes one of the definitions, it’s no longer wrong. That’s how language works.

If you look up the definition of cow, it includes this:

(loosely) a domestic bovine animal, regardless of sex or age

So, it is maybe an informal use of the word, but not unrecognized.
