Sorry bud, you’re straight up wrong. Aerospace and defense in the US very much still uses the inch-pound-second system of units.

I’m not a concrete guy, but I know that metals and composites have material properties certified for use in civil and commercial aviation are given in psi in MMPDS and CMH-17. I would be willing to bet that concrete specifications in the US are no different.

I could keep going. Our bolts are specified in ultimate tensile strength by psi. Structural steel standards use minimum yield strengths in psi. There is literally a type of steel called A36 because its minimum required yield strength is 36,000 psi.

Planet Money has some really good episodes. Unfortunately, a lot of filler as well.

You aren’t having them redline the engine and slip the clutch going up a hill. Practicing idle starts in first is probably way less wear than a single sporty start on a highway on ramp.

I’m now imagining a bundle of 2x4s vertically sticking up 6 feet.

I think I’ve only once or twice had something not fit the hatchback because the roof was too low. And those items wouldn’t have fit in a 3-4 foot bed either. Plus a proper hatchback should have roof racks to put oversize cargo on anyway.

I’m not arguing a 5+ foot bed isn’t better than a hatch (my 97 Taco with 6 foot bed comes in handy sometimes), but the shorty beds make me laugh.

That’s got to be like a 3 foot bed? I just don’t get how that’s useful vs a hatchback with the seats down?

I had scanned through it, and it looked like the exact same stuff that Google and Microsoft say. Paraphrasing: “we value your privacy” “we’re de-identifying your data” “the processing occurs on-device”…

Apple probably is better on privacy than other big tech corpos, but it’s a race to the bottom, and they’re definitely participating in the race.

Apple is the best on privacy though right?

It’s definitely highly edited. It probably isn’t AI, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the editing was heavily AI assisted. I found the original source on reddit itookapicture 1 year ago, which isn’t 100% evidence, but AI was way worse then and it doesn’t have any of the telltale AI signs.

I see drake: I downvote. Simple as.

Thanks for braving the cesspool. It’s like those heros who bring back the gold flakes from shit pile that is 4chan.

Why would an optional feature be a deal breaker?

It also seems like an issue that could be easily solved by whitelisting.

Google TV is the easiest to get rid of ads on. I have a Sony and a Hisense both no ads.

Look up and use the Projectivy Launcher.

You’ll also want to sideload an app that forces the default launcher to Projectivy (can’t recall the name) because they don’t allow changing it through the stock OS. Projectivy tries to use accessibility settings to take over on its own, but it breaks some other features so I don’t use them.

You better get out those tissues. They’re already starting https://www.lg.com/us/smart-monitors

Sony. I got last year’s open box for close to 1k. It runs Android so I have a ad free launcher called Projectivy and can sideload apps as well.

I used to work down the street from another building that had a small cafeteria, but on Fridays the chef would set up a big grill outside and cook up sausages, hot dogs, burgers, chicken, and grilled veggies. It was just like going to a backyard BBQ. Those were some good Friday lunches when we made it over there.

It’s got a compact view that is pretty much why I’d be using if I started. I think it makes sense to default to the “cozy” view, even if that is the most bass ackwards naming I’ve seen. The reason being is that “most” people prefer that view and are the same people that wouldn’t bother looking for a setting to change, they’d just nope on out because they got overwhelmed.

Default “cozy” in desktop mode

“compact” in desktop mode

I think compact looks decent in mobile view as well, but since the parent post is about desktop UI that’s what I’m showing.

Out here in the you guys zone making yall happen. 10 years and you guys will be nearly gone cause people get tired of having to ubsubltly tack on “and gals” or “gals and nonbinary pals”.

If you are always listening to podcasts or audio books your brain can’t over think so you only do it while trying to sleep.
