Then the mod should have posted the comment as it’s own comment and pinned it to the top.

In fairness, my dogs are considered “property” and I value both of them far more than the human who put this on their vehicle.

I once got yelled at by a cop for walking across a nearly empty road in columbus Ohio.

The closest crosswalk was basically 1/4mile in either direction, because the building I was trying to enter is so large.

I was walking with a cane at the time. And no cars were anywhere close so a snail could have made it across with time to spare. It took some people close by stepping in and arguing for me before the Douchebag dropped it.

Im sure if I had looked my usual level of disheveled or had any other shade of skin I wouldn’t be so “lucky”

I say this in nearly complete seriousness:

“The squeaky hinge gets the grease”

“The nail that sticks out farthest vets the hammer first”

These are metaphors to say “since Waymo is the one doing things like driverless taxis all over a city, they’re getting news stories and social media posts”

Yes, things like Tesla suck too. But tesla isn’t operating a “driverless taxi” service. Yet.

I’m sure that as something advertised as “driverless” that tesla’s owner gets pissy about it and probably feeds into negative press against them, but that doesn’t excuse what they do.

Both can be true.

I never watched alien growing up, and only half-watched it with a girlfriend (sorry, good movies are great but… Boobs vs stereotypical teenager watching a movie…)

By the time I watched the movie fully, it just held no scare factor for me.

And so many dumb choices were made in Prometheus, it’s hard to take the people seriously when everyone is acting like children who have never been in space or a dangerous situation before.

The cycle:

Step 1: (as a child) “wow this movie was great, I love Greek stuff!”

Step 2: learns a ton about Greek mythology over the next many years due to interest sparked by the movie

Step 3: (likely as a teenager or older, re-watching it one day) “holy shit this movie is absolutely nothing like Greek mythology, why did I ever think it was good…”

Oooh, nice interrobang.

At full sun in winter, I get enough power to charge a battery in about 4 hours.

With pedal assist, I get about 6-7 hours of cycling.

Adding in the trailer weight and terrain/clouds depending, the roughly 1200w of power are more than enough to keep me going during daylight.

That guy needs to use a better panel, and lighter trailer. I’ve seen people who do exactly what I’m wanting to do. Checking the comments, people are more or less saying the same thing.

I disagree with his assessment, but I do like his style, so thanks for introducing me to a new channel!

I’ve got some 300w solar panels, a couple electric bikes, and extra batteries I’ve been wanting to hook up on some kind of trailer to give myself effectively unlimited range.

I’m sure whoever finds my stash after the world ends will enjoy it since I’ll probably be dead.

I mean, what were they going to do, say “yes we keep slaves, next question please”?

Not even a little. I went out in shorts and a t-shirt for about an hour, exchanged banal pleasantries with family until my anxiety got the better of me and I had to leave, sat in a room with no windows watching old shows and snacking, and am waiting until exhaustion allows me to sleep a couple hours until I go to work on one of the two days remaining on my schedule. After that I might not have any work for months unless I can find something close by that doesn’t make me legitimately contemplate things. I have a broken tooth, some kind of respiratory thing going on, and an unmentionable medical issue that really needs to be seen by a doctor but I can’t afford one and my government insurance was denied because I made a couple thousand more this year than last year.

On the bright side, my truck is finally working again and assuming the now-slowly-leaking-while-on fuel pump doesn’t catch a spark before I can afford to have it replaced I don’t have to share a car this week. Which is nice.

Soylent billionaires: food for the rich.

There’s several of us in Ohio, what if we toss Mike dewine and his ilk to Kentucky?

must’ve read David vs. Goliath and sided with the Goliath.

Bold of you to assume that they can read, or that they have read the Bible.

In my experience not even “devout Christians” do that last one.

Don’t care how they got it.

Unethically, probably illegally.

Sweet baby deity, I hate sidewalk blockers.

I had a bruise for months on my shin because some douche nozzle parked with a hitch sticking almost to the other side of the 4ft sidewalk.

If you can’t park nicely inside the space, at least have the decency to walk your happy ass across the parking lot and park in the back.

A person can dream.

My parents have between 1,000 and 3,000 books… Even they aren’t sure.

Last time they were neatly arranged I was a child.

Right now they have 3 floor-to-ceiling bookshelves stacked as densely as possible, 3 books deep, with as many stacked In and laying on top as can fit Ina rectangle 10ft tall, 4ft wide, and 18ish inches deep.

Plus a handful of waist high shelves, multiple moving boxes filled up that haven’t been emptied since they moved in2017 and a ton scattered all over the house…

They have more fantasy/Sci fi books than every library in a 50 mile radius combined.

I still have less than 30 books to my name since most of mine are digital, but I’ve been going to half price books looking to get physical copies of everything.
