I lost my best friend of 20+ years just before Christmas, I just wanted to say I think it’s really cool you’re keeping your buddy’s memory alive. I hope to do the same some day.

It’s pretty rare to see another human in so much obvious pain and feel absolutely zero empathy for them. He’s definitely earned it though, I don’t even feel bad for not feeling bad.

I doubt that would be a make or break requirement for getting hired somewhere but it definitely could be the thing that differentiates you from another candidate applying for the same job. Honestly you should go ask the mechanics at your local shop for their opinion. They are usually pretty personable and the few I’ve met were very eager to help new guys get started in the trade. Could also pay off when looking for a job later if they keep you in mind.

Any idea what it weighs? I have the two stage ego and my biggest complaint is it’s too light (I think). I’m going to 3d print a couple mounts so I can hang weight up front and keep it tracking under the snow, it pops up and skates over hard pack without concerted effort. Curious what I should target weight wise.

Nah, the point is to get a sweetheart deal when they inevitably file for bankruptcy because they are a budding energy company taking big risks on new tech, not a media company hemorrhaging money at an unsustainable rate, silly goose!

Just curious, did windows VM see it as a genuine Xbox controller or just a generic input device?

The projected “battery only” range seems the same, so maybe not? It’s all just dreams on paper at this point, we’ll have to see what actually makes it to market.

Looks like they are copying the RAM strategy and slapping a generator onto it to boost range. Still a fully electric drivetrain, no idea on overall reliability with that mix of components. https://newatlas.com/automotive/ford-electric-f150-lightning-pickup-truck-range-extender-erev-2026/

The newer models already have the option to enable Google assistant and interface with it via a microphone in the remote control. Sounds like it’s no longer an optional feature and is being AI enshittified.

We’ll need to cross reference with a centaur to be sure.

To my eye, the left side of his legs don’t really line up correctly with his torso in this image.

I’m gonna go against the grain here and say Money.

No way all of this over a paltry 680,000 gallons of water per… oh wow, really? Per acre?? WTF? Ok ok, but how many… HOLY SHIT, 90 million acres?! WTF?!

Dude that’s absolutely insane! ~61,000,000,000,000 gallons of water per year and that’s JUST America!

What does Fan Account mean?

Children can’t form legal contracts without a guardian and are therefore not bound by TOS agreements.

No one taught me how to fix a car or paint a fence, yet I can do both. So can countless others with no such training across literally the entire spectrum of human capability.

People who claim they don’t do housework because they ‘were never taught how’ are just feigning incompetence. I bet the vacuum becomes much less mystifying if I tie a $1000 prize to its successful operation, for example.

I wonder what, exactly, his ancestor might have done acquire the surname Semen Chuck. 🤔

You say that every. single. time.

Oh neat, a knitted sheep’s scrotum in an assortment of colors.
