The video from Uber showed a very unlit area. However, videos from the same exact place from other dashcam vids show a much, much better lit place. It really seems like Uber’s video was unnaturally dark. The area is rather well lit: https://arstechnica.com/cars/2018/03/police-chief-said-uber-victim-came-from-the-shadow…

I was at Nickelodeon Studios once while that was filming, and they just grab people from the park to both be contestants and audience. I was wishing so hard to be picked, because I played Sega all day ever day and knew I could clean up on that show. I was not picked. So sad.
(I did get to watch an early rehearsal of…

Ha, yes came here to say exactly this. I loved Rep. Hanabusa’s “I think we’re still ‘ohayo gozaimasu’ right now...”

A good number of the schools in my area (Upstate NY) used a rather small snow storm to dodge the issue. We had 1-3 inches fall and tons of schools were closed. That’s an exceedingly small amount of snow for us and the roads were great. It was very obvious they were doing it to avoid dealing with the walk out all…

But... my next car is a Volvo. I very much would have liked to get Swedish Racing Green, however, was offered only the normal shades of grey, and also red. Got red.

I’d take a pair of old timey workmen carrying a large piece of glass across the road, that is perfectly sized such that a bus could drive through it without hitting either of them.

Did we get that at least?

Same thing happening to me! Recent change, pages hang/crash constantly. I thought it was some ad-blocker interaction, even though I’ve (like a good reader) whitelisted all the Giz-family sites I use regularly, but even with all add-ons disabled browsing has been hellish recently.

Why not “ripped off” ? Or as the article points out: “This means to be cheated, swindled, or taken advantage of in modern vernacular...”

Cheated. Ripped Off.

There is, for Amazon Fire of all things at the very least. Video exclusive, accessto public live streams and saved videos of your friends. Found out when some bullshit regulations prevented some of the Golden Globes from being streamed on Playstation Vue, Facebook Live of all places had a stream. It worked. Its still…

No idea how, but when I added them to my cart I had a $38 promo pre applied, and both coupon codes worked on top. The price dropped to $1, even though the promo credits were higher than the price. Not complaining. $1 headphones yay! (assuming they are allowed through!)

Important Notice: That episode is represented in Zach Morris is Trash.

It works for Kodak too. Kodak is a mere wisp of a shadow of its former self, and exist today mostly as a reminder of corporate folly (Kodak developed the digital camera in 1975, and then sat on it to protect its core business of selling film... and became irrelevant as a result)

Their headquarters are here in Rochester…

My girlfriend’s mother upon reading the article from yesterday: “Claire Underwood demanded final sign off on the book before allowing publication! Did Trump not thinking to do that before letting an author hang around the Whitehouse...?”

I somehow missed Jettomero this year. This article has shown it to me, and thus I’ve known about it for 5 minutes and it is already my favorite game that I have never played.

Listened to a story on this on NPR this morning, what I found most funny that is if any real investigation into “voting irregularities” was done in Alabama, it’d likely reveal Roy Moore should have lost by significantly wider margins than he did. Lots of reports of the usually republican election bullshit, like all…

Definitely. I’m considering, but will be doing a lot of math and getting some insurance quotes before committing one way or the other. I tend to dump a car as soon as it starts needing repairs, and also have horrid roads with lots of hills, and on a car a few years ago was averaging new brakes every year which could…

With the Care by Volvo you wouldn’t be sharing, you’d have your own XC40 for 1-2 years, and then it’d be a used car someone else could buy. The one the subscriber/leaser gets is new though... so no other people’s farts. Not sure where you are getting the sharing piece!

I generally dislike CUVs in general (and SUVs, but not many of those left), but I’m rather excited about this. I’m not sure I can do another upstate NY snow belt winter in my Mini, so looking for something new in 2018. I’ve been holding out for the S40, but still nothing on the horizon that I’ve seen for that... I…

Yikes. The worst kind of “I told you so” =/

Hugo Schwyzer. A professor of gender studies and writer, he wrote here on Jezebel several times and on a bunch of other blogs. Wrote a lot about how to be a good man, feminist ideals from a male perspective, things like that. All 5+ years back? Then everyone started to learn a lot more about him, especially his…
