What kind of connector are you using to the car?

The cheap OBD dongles are all elm 327 only support a basic error reading and clearing, and some basic engine metrics.

Some places use beet juice. It’s still all gonna be mixed with tire and brake dust.

I wish they’d stick to sand anywhere the snow sticks around for more than a day or two.

I always assumed the windows key was a late attempt at copying the “Apple” keys on Macs. then Macs stopped using that, and switched to the clover (called command), then to actual Command text.

Sounds more like a face eating leopard who ran out of faces and is stuck in a cubicle now.

~~Tesla stock~~ capitalism is a pyramid scam.

Though when you look at income distribution it looks more like the Burj Khalifa in a desert.

Conover’s rant about the Patagonia founder’s billion dollar donation to avoid taxes and set his kids up is really good too.

I didn’t say it’s impending. The doom is what’s impending from the rise of fascism. You’re right though, things are already fucked badly. I’m just voting to keep democracy around long enough to grave a shot at fixing it someday for my child.

There are days when it feels like arms are going to be the only way out and that’ll be a fucking nightmare that will ruin millions more lives.

The impending doom of the fascist right is the only thing keeping me voting for the dems. If we had rank choice I’d be so much happier voting every election.

Don’t forget the retirees that rely on the stock prices dividend payouts in their 401ks.

Those IRAs and 401ks that are the only alternative after states and corps plundered all the pension systems to buy those politicians.

Just before our yearly subscription ends. I’m busy ripping and saving what we like for the next month and finally canceling prime this year, this is just the added motivation to remember how much it sucks.

Specifically its co-creator was Jeff Atwood, who is also the writer of coding horror and recently posted a pretty good endorsement of Mastadon and other non-twitter services.

He was actually one of only a dozen or so people I followed on very early twitter, before losing interest in the bullshit on there by 2010 or so and moving to Reddit.
