It seems like it’s a realm where people do what they want and then get judged for it.

Truly awful advice. I knew this was dumb as a doctor that owns like 5 medical reference books. But I sent it to my wife who is a librarian (archivist specifically) and here is her reply, way better than what I could come up with:

I will say that this is where Tesla’s direct sales model is nice. When I bought my Model Y last month, I submitted my financial information and chose between 48, 60, and 72 months. I went with 60 because interest rates are absurdly low and I could put a down payment that kept me from worrying about gap coverage. Was…

The model X is great but could get the same with better performance from the model S, for a few grand less (in the same trim). Still will be all wheel drive and very capable of daily driving, but just a tiny bit closer to the speed and handling he is accustomed to.

I drove a model S at a used car dealership and then a Model Y that was arranged through Tesla’s website. After the test drive for the Model Y, I dropped the card off and my sales person answered all of my questions. About a week later I got an email asking if I needed anything. I put my order in about a week after…

You don’t even have to fix it if you don’t opt in to sending data. This is how data policies should work. By default they don’t get the video.

I just bought a Model Y with FSD and 100% agree that I am actively trying to be a beta tester. I buy early access games regularly. I enjoy being on the leading edge and know that I may need to babysit the technology and it may not work some times. I haven’t received the FSD beta yet, but even using autopilot or…

At this point, based on the available data, I would not be afraid of ibuprofen or other NSAIDs. A lack of evidence is evidence that there is no reason to change what you would have done otherwise. If you have a fever or headache, take some motrin. I’m an ER doctor and we regularly give toradol (Rx NSAID) to suspected…

I would almost hope someone has come out with an aftermarket guard to put in that place to match any col0r scheme you are looking for. It’s such a popular thing to leave, surely there is a market to replace it.

Edit because I didn’t realize Game Pass included Live Gold when I did my math.

Yes! I read that exact one at least 3 times over 3rd to 4th grade. The Hobbit is about perfect for his daughter’s age group.

Done! If I wanted monotonous sports coverage I would have gone somewhere that’s not deadspin.

Scuff still for some reason doesn’t remake the bumpers on the xbox controllers to be more solid, which break easily with frequent use. As a Rocket League player, most of whom remap air roll to LB (some people add drift to this...I just can’t get used to that), I use the shoulder buttons frequently. For people…

But this does happen all the time in retail. A smaller company makes product x that becomes popular, and a larger retailer gives them money to become the “exclusive retailer of product x”. Also, you are free to shop at any online game store, but like grocery stores there are some brands available at one vs the other…

So, like, 0.2% of the viewership? I think HBO is okay with that.

Sounds perfect for setting up on an iPad with a stand on your table. I have an iPad pro (and probably will upgrade), and I could plug it in and leave it on the keyboard stand...just below typical FOV like a GPS in a car. Didn’t know this existed before now. Thanks!

Stop watching Cavs recaps.

Gotta hope for “just” a dislocation, since there’s a chance of a pretty full recovery in a few months, but usually get some fractures with it which is a longer road back. Amazing that it didn’t look like much contact, but hey, that golfer a while back did this just jumping up and down, so sometimes luck is pretty…

What’s the big deal? Medical and surgical residents work 80+ hour weeks for 48-50 weeks per year for anywhere from 3 to 10 years in a row for between $45k and $60k per year. Honestly 60 hours a week isn’t that bad. I’m an attending and about to do five 12 hour shifts in a row starting tomorrow...you don’t get much…

Just looked and the record is 64 yards. He would have made that seem trivial on this kick. Dude is bad ass. While I pull for the Panthers in general, I kind of hope they get stuck at the point of a 66ish yard FG at some point and Gano gets to nail it.
