Also, it appears that the fashion industry has taken to calling any skin-tight short a “bike short”, so buyer beware that you can’t assume that they’ve got a chamois just because they say “bike shorts”, or worse, “biker shorts”.

I’ll expand this to say that you want padding between your bike and every part of you that is in contact with it; ergo:

I also want to say fuck ‘em, delete your subreddit... but reddit is an incredibly useful forum for many questions and reddit posts always have a section in Google when I search for an answer to a technical question so that would be a huge blow.

Well, they will continue to let 3rd parties access the API and do exactly what they had been doing - just for a much higher price. They are shooting themselves in the foot, just as Twitter has done, not realizing or caring how many of their users prefer using a third-party app.

I remember 12 years ago or so, when Gizmodo changed the look of its site and everyone in the comments said they hated it and weren’t going to read it anymore and that would be the end of Gizmodo. Here we are, and it’s even changed more since then. My bet is Reddit will be similar. New subs will pop up to replace the…

I’m on Reddit’s side on this. Why should they let 3rd parties do whatever they want, and present however they want, with their data? Don’t like Reddit? Don’t use it! End this stupid blackout.

Not even smart phones. I’ve had both a blackberry and a Moto Q before the iphone was around. There was that whole windows mobile smartphone that happened many years before iphone. But I’m happy Apple invented AR today 😁

“In the same way Mac introduced us to personal computing and iPhone introduced us to mobile computing, Vision Pro will introduce us to spatial computing,” Tim Cook said Monday.

Stop trying to make VR happen it’s not going to happen. It’s the kind of thing beloved by the most insufferable nerds on earth and no one else. Most people will never ever want to put those stupid goggles on.

This sounds like an incredibly underwhelming conference.

Because it’s a white creamy liquid frequently used on cereal and in coffee and in baking, and “malk” was already trademarked by “Earnest: Scared Stupid.”

You said it yourself: it’s an alternative to milk. People use it as a replacement for cow’s milk.

probably because that’s been accepted use of the term ‘milk’ for, uh, literal centuries.

Fine; let the “real” milk industry have exclusive rights to their product branding. Just don’t leverage the government into silencing those of us who can’t drink “cow titty juice” from advertising alternatives.

wasn’t the point of American Beauty that his obsession with her was creepy?  I don’t think we were  supposed to be rooting for him to get the girl or anything weird.  It’s been decade since I’ve seen it, maybe worth a rewatch I dunno.

The room at the old folks home will have a window, and the medical staff will be licensed to US standards. You also won’t be potentially either days or an expensive helicopter trip from quality health care that your Medicare will cover almost without question.

“Retirement is supposed to be your reward for lifelong hard work and spent doing something you enjoy...so here’s 1000 words on why I don’t like the thing you enjoy!”

This is why Google’s call screening for unknown numbers is so awsome. I don’t have to deal with telemarketers.

WTF is the deal with knowing in advance? There are very, very, VERY few surprises in life guaranteed to be good - finding out the sex of your child at birth is one of them. Hell, maybe the ONLY one.

My wife and I briefly thought about having a gender reveal party where the inside of the cake would be rainbow and we’d announce the gender by saying “WHO THE FUCK CARES, HONESTLY?!” but then the pandemic happened and also even that kind of gender reveal party is a stupid waste of money, so...
