YOU don’t speak for all Texans. And this native Texan completely understands the feeling germancarsonly expressed.

We could put a picture of asylum seekers crawling over razor wire and being packed into buses to “sanctuary cities” on our license plates. Or of dying women being denied medically necessary abortions. It’d be just as on-brand.

I’m really getting the impression that you work for a dealership or in a closely related field. Either that, or you’re just an apologist for them,,...

To the extent that they belong to the class “car dealers” who are almost universally awful - yes.

I like Toyotas, but hate Toyota dealers. Most of them are greedy pigs...

You enjoy that Ford reliability, ‘K ? 

oh nothing, I just sign off like that. Fuck Trump

Naw. Their neo-conservatives are as bad as ours...

And yet you came back, read an entire article, and spent add’l time & effort composing your knuckle-head comment.

Extra points for the North Texas locations in the video! (Ponder Town Hall!)

Then for most U.S. cities, you’ll only get a certain demographic coming downtown for recreation or work. If that’s fine WRT the businesses that operate there, it’s all good. But I know I often avoid going downtown (Dallas in my case) because parking is awkward or expensive...

Came here to comment this. Alternate headline, “Atlanta has a decent amount of downtown parking” (vs. cities who apparently hate having actual people come downtown & patronize businesses since there’s no place for them to park).

I’m definitely on-board with this. Generational stereotypes are arbitrary and meaningless.👍

Thanks for adding to the conversation, very thoughtful of you...

Incl people born from 1960-64 in this list of somewhat ageist “humor” is a bit galling. I’m just as characteristic of GenX as I am of late Boomers, and have little in common with people born right after WWII.

To add to the Ghirardelli tip, you can usually get larger boxes of their excellent brownie mix at Costco (contains multiple std. size bags of mix).

The thing about macOS is that it’s Unix, so all the Unix file system commands work (like the thing you mentioned RE: starting a filename with a “.”). You can also use the std Unix file/directory cmds to set just who can read/write/execute a file or directory (“executing” a directory means you can cd into it). 

We’re an Apple household (makes it easier on the CTO, me, to only have one platform to support). But Pixel phones are in my mind the all-around best Android phones out there. No “junkware” loaded, std. Android interface, very good cameras, and Google seems to keep updates avail longer for the Pixels. Not as long as…

Sounds like an economic variation of what they used to call Uncle Tom syndrome. A “strategy of coping with oppression from socially, culturally, or economically dominant groups involving suppression of aggressive feelings and even identification with the oppressor...”
