Did those early Roadsters have self driving tech? I thought they were more barebones sports cars, not like the current gimmick-dumpsters.

My dog just startles himself when he farts.

I'm not sure what's worse... being startled by the sound of a dog fart or being startled by a 60lb dog leaping off the couch without warning.

My guess is that with TV/Movies streaming you generally sit down to consume a given piece of content in chunks of minimum 1hr, and people rarely watch an episode of one show back to back with another show. So having that content fragmented between services doesn't provide much friction to normal viewing.

Contrast that with music, where having to switch services to listen to a different album would be extremely disruptive to the way most people listen. The only way that would work is if the separate services were generally clustered by genre, like radio. Having said that, I'm a little surprised that niche music streaming services haven't popped up (like how you have Crunchyroll for anime, for example).

It sounded like he was being sloppy about stitching together the audio from multiple takes, rather than a distinct decision.

But yeah, I can't stand that condensed run-on-sentence editing style that so many youtubers have adopted. It has an uncanny valley quality to it that's off-putting.

Sorry for your loss. No doubt in my mind she was a good girl, having blessed you with 17 years of love and companionship! RIP Riley.

That is so odd... I've only ridden Amtrak a few times, but I was amazed at how many stops were just some small town that happened to lie on the rail line.

Most small towns that lie on a major highway and are supported by commuter traffic are only going to support a truck stop and a few fast food restaurants at best. Sure, a true high speed rail line would likely only stop in larger metropolitan areas, so those meager income sources may dwindle. But on the other hand if I were a rail commuter in one of those rural/suburban areas, I'd be much more likely to spend some time doing a bit of shopping or lingering in a restaurant during that transition from the train to my car after work, than if I were just passing through in my car.

So they're not just cowardly fascists, they're cowardly lying fascists. 👍

I get those very frequently the day before a popular show airs.

I wish there was a setting in sonarr to only grab released episodes (like radarr has) bit it seems like blocking extensions is the way to go.

On the one hand, as someone who likes to use their garage for garage stuff in addition to storing my car in it, I feel his pain at the too-short garage.

On the other hand, fucking LOL at buying an unnecessarily large vehicle like a CT without checking your garage size first--and then doubling down by parking it like that.

I'm as fascinated by those shuttle comparisons as anything else!

On the face of it, I wouldn't have guessed that the space shuttle's power output was measured in gigawatts, nor that the space shuttle's output is on the same scale as an entire country's steam power output (in 1896, sure... but still!)

Thanks to your comment, today's sober me is going to stop at the grocery store after work and do this weekend's high me SUCH a huge solid! 😘

Methinks the lady doth protest too much.
