Truth. I run into the same problem all the time where it’s a country or culture I’m not intimately familiar with.

I’m not sure how “another similarity” is that they face competition from other services (kind of confusing sentence to be honest), but you list Alphabet Loon, which is not only not a satellite service, it was based on using balloons, and it shut down in January 2021. So there’s that. I know you guys face deadlines and…

Yes. This is the way.

Ya, I don’t get that. The lipsync was a tad off as well, but the voice was completely off. What I don’t understand is you can simply search for clips of Loder on Youtube and as I understand it just feed those into one of those AI voice emulators.

How in the world are you listing a Prius as a car with a bad reputation? Solidly reliable with obviously ugly duckling looks but great mileage. Sure, some of it’s earliest adopters got reputations for being smug idiots, but not the car itself. This is a bit of a reach.

Try 30, junior.

Wired has a paywall after you hit x amount of page reads. Just FYI.

These writers. Sheesh. Also, I’m pretty sure “dopest cars on craigslist” would preclude motorcycles, but then who am I to question. I’m in the greys.

Incorrect (sort of). Your premise, and his, would be falsely based on there being a finite amount of players who have knowledge of most games available to them. That’s clearly not how it works. There is a virtually endless supply of new gamers coming on line, and old gamers who never heard of Factorio, or old gamers…

This is the correct take. The secret in the PC industry is that hardware performance long ago got pretty damn good, so a five year old gaming rig with a mediocre GPU can play just about anything at 1080P at very high quality settings.

That’s not how this works. The reason they get away with less RAM is because of platform optimization. RAM being soldered vs. seated has little to no bearing on it’s overall performance, not does it’s physical proximity for the most part.

Who cares? Are you racing it or something? Smaller “economy” cars used to have 0-60 times in the upper teens. I’ll take a 9s 0-60 time all day long with the kind of gas you’re saving with a vehicle like this.

I was thinking the same thing. He’s a fairly good looking guy in the Midwestern sense, but I don’t think I’d refer to him in that way either. And honestly, he’s kinda spindly.

Can anyone smarter than me tell us what, if any, impact all this flooding and excess water will have on the drought conditions throughout the state, or the broader Western states in general? And as silly as this sounds, but can they also trap all that water in the LA River and stop it from rushing into the Pacific to…

So, what’s going on here. Why are you guys now hosting videos that stop playing if you cursor over to another window or tab, or basically anywhere outside of the video window? That’s incredibly annoying, and I can’t understand it’s purpose other than to try to capture the viewer’s attention in some way? Even though I…

I could be wrong here (and I really hate this dude), but I think his response is trying to double down by actually quoting Greta the Great (she’s pretty cool) from that speech she gave where she got pretty worked up and said those exact words in disgust at the climate change deniers.

Also, can I please be removed from…

Ugh, that’s just the worst. If true, I think they’re missing the point of the insult.

I’m trying to discern the logic here, so bear with me. How is Stadia a gadget? And how did it disappoint you? I mean, you’re bummed that the service was discontinued, but that seems more like you enjoyed it rather than you were disappointed in it. I know I personally was not happy about it being cancelled for many…

Agreed. I think it’s a matter of managing expectations and your outlook on the world and the way you exist in it. Since leaving the corporate grind and managing my own little IT consulting company, I’m miles happier than ever but I don’t work on a beach for half an hour a day.

100% agree. This has a legit, public safety application. It’s gonna be nearly impossible to find a balance.
