That’s for when your car is out of gas. If you’re fully car dependent then the gas station is the one place you could ever be forced to walk to.

I’m guessing the thought process is “well if my car is out of gas, that’s the one place I’d actually have to walk to.”

Some people don’t like when it’s too quiet. For some it’s uneasy, for some it makes it too hard to stop your mind from wandering. That can make it hard to sleep or hard to focus on a task. White noise is noise that makes it not quiet, but isn’t so loud or too full of meaning to be a distraction on its own. Most people use something like ocean waves, running water, rain, wind noises, the warp core noise from Star Trek, etc.

Who says cows can’t lay eggs?

And don’t say “literally everyone”, that’s a cop out answer

Yep, from way way back. BSD -> NextStepOS -> OS X -> iOS

In what universe does Linux run on 99% of mobile devices? Android is nowhere near 99% market share, and iPhones are not and never have been based on Linux.

Local elections are the time. That’s it, that’s the answer. Third parties have to build up heavy momentum in smaller elections and only then build up to bigger ones, and eventually the big chair.

Doing very little at the local level and making a big splash once every four years is not a strategy for public policy or even for public debate, it’s solely a strategy for fundraising.

Honestly thought this was a gourmet Ruffle at first.

For once, the money is genuinely not the point, from any point of view.

The stated purpose, and I think it will accomplish this, is that no one running a bot network will pay this for their bots, so spam reduction.

The likely ultimate purpose is to have the user’s payment info saved to reduce friction for giving Twitter money later on.

The problem though is that they’re adding this friction on to the beginning, so as a result I think the most prominent actual effect is going to be 80% of free users (real ones) are gonna kill it then and there.

If she told the kids they were just eating regular gummies rather than sleep inducing ones, then “laced” is still appropriate here.

“We won’t use your calls to train AI without your consent, so it’s a good thing our new TOS includes you giving us your consent.”

There are a lot of valid reasons not to do a screw in plug, but hoses solved this problem decades ago. The tip turns, the cord doesn’t

Bonus, let’s nix the football team too. We don’t need the traumatic brain injuries.

Some of it can be done during study hall, while kids are doing their work.

It’s plainly obvious in this screenshot that you’re just searching for the text “user”.

I see the blank lines being included is odd, is that it? Why are the other lines being underlined?

Without normalizing for the number of these vehicles on the road this data is not meaningful. No matter how much I appreciate the depiction of cars as murder machines.

There were zero children killed by Titan submarines in the last twenty years, we should clearly take inspiration from this beacon of safety!

How did that text document get in your meme

All of their many, many reboot episodes have been nothing but meta in jokes. Episode 2 will be much more informative.

The beginning was like 15-20 years ago.
