The alt text isn’t aging as well. USB-C might be it. But in actuality I suspect USB-A will never die.

Yeah Harris has a “I guess this is the world now” sorta look on her face.

The idiots who answer unknown numbers regularly.

I’m starting to think it’s the same 60 idiots in all these polls. Ever wonder if the pollsters are on a first name basis with them by now?

The betting pool on who would end up in camera at the next insurrection, would be busy.

It not possible that the Russian Mafia has more power that the Russian Government? Or are you saying they are one in the same?

Yup lawyers who take these kinds of cases that are easy wins, do it on contingency. If they don’t think you have a good case they tell you, and then charge you hourly.

How many chassis are you on? Or do you live outside the rust belt.

Manna got rampant capitalism + AI pretty close, and has predicted McDonalds payment kiosks, Amazon worker abuse, and probably some of the tech layoffs too.

Damn, my wife and I were on the fence about which last name to give our son or to hyphenate.

Hers is C mine is R, but if we hyphenated it’d be almost 20 letters long and use every vowel. So we went with my last name from just tradition.

We even have our own annoying group of brigade-ers.

I’ll see myself out.

The OG teslas had FOMOCO e-throttle pedal assemblies from Ford.

The problem is that Tesla is constantly changing parts during a model run, sometimes for the better (reliability, simplicity) other times for cost cutting and that is why I’d never own one. Because there are a million iterations finding parts to repair them, and I only buy 10+ year old cars (possibly nothing after 2010 at this rate).

Teslas are built like one time use smartphones. Only good for parts recycling after they fail.
