I know some people who actually use their pickup truck and wish they could get something smaller. It doesn’t exist anymore in the US.
It’s not even the often remarked “chicken tax”. That only prevents small trucks from foreign factories being imported in without a big extra cost attached. Factories in Canada and Mexico, via NAFTA, have been long exempt. US automakers have been free to make whatever small truck they want.
I am eyeing the Telo. I hope that works out.
Men only want one thing, and it’s an Astraeus Super-heavy Tank.
Tammy Baldwin is my dem senator. She’s might be more of a Hillary Clinton Democrat than Hillary Clinton, but I called.
Incidently, the caller ID on her DC office line still lists Herb Kohl. He left the office over a decade ago, and died a little over a year ago.
We have a situation. A situation that calls for anarchism panties.
Or, like, white Americans adopting any other culture from black Americans.
I guess it could be like beer cheese soup? When beer cheese soup is good, it’s really good. But you wouldn’t use an IPA for that. Usually use a pilsner.
Face makeup is too evenly applied.
What if it’s on the end of a really long stick?
The argument for the lack of it is that pixel trackers could be used to break privacy.
This shows that the Gemini devs didn’t know what they were doing. You can track people by parsing your server logs if you want. You don’t need a pixel tracker to do that. Limiting images to local server links only would have done the job.
Rather than Gemini, we should make some kind of web site certification for no cookies, no JavaScript, and no external images. Maybe have a browser plugin that gives a checkmark on the tab when you’re on a complying site.
It’s OK to advocate violence against LLMs.
All 2D projections are distorted, but some are useful in certain contexts (yes, even Mercator, though not for viewing the entire globe at once). Google Earth is still projecting the image of a globe onto a 2D screen, and there are distortions.
Here’s South America straight on in Google Map’s globe view:
And South America from the side:
If you measure the distances between, say, Manaus and La Paz with your fingers in these pictures, you’ll get different answers. That’s just how translating a 3D object to a 2D image works; you can’t flatten a globe into a piece of paper without breaking something.
I didn’t know my wife’s grandfather very well before he died, but he was a tank driver in France. When people said it was impolite to punch Nazis, he said “what do you mean? What else are they good for?”
Social networking makes alternatives particularly difficult. The most important feature of any social network is that everyone uses it. The second best social network in a given niche is rarely worth talking about. After all, what good is a social network with no people?
There’s frozen pizza that’s better. Give me a Brew Pub or Pothole pizza any day over Little Ceasars.
That basically is my point. It’s eye opening for people who don’t think about drugs that way.
Sir, this is a futanari website.
Smoking rates were around 40% up through the 1970s. If you didn’t smoke, you almost certainly got it second hand. Which implies that up through the smoking bans of the 1990s, everyone (except maybe some farmers and other outdoorsy types) were on a psychoactive drug 24/7 at least a little.
Helps that most people don’t smoke a pack of joints every day.
The current Maverick is not a small truck. It just says that on a label somewhere.
