“…oh, no, maybe there’s a baby in the other window!”


Oh, I never realized before that I wanted a “The Scooby Gang Fights the Klan” story. Gene Luen Lang’s Superman story about the same thing was amazing, I bet a Scooby-Doo story in the same vein could be really interesting.


There are a lot of things that are unacceptable only if you’re poor. In fact, if a rich man hoarded a ton of old newspapers, he’d be called an “eccentric collector of vintage print media.” A rich woman with 150 cats would be a “dedicated feline rescue worker.”
A poor guy with a car up on blocks and a stockpile of rifles at his mobile home is “trailer trash,” but put that car in a big garage and the guns in a case at a nice mansion and he’s a “hunter and tinkerer.” A poor farmer trying to stop a highway from being built through her field is “impeding progress,” but if it’s a rich woman’s family estate, she’s “fighting government overreach.” Rich, blithering racist idiots with clear signs of dementia get elected to the Presidency, while Uncle Cletus gets escorted out of the town council meeting and his family is handed a flyer for a memory care facility when he says the same things.
Across the board, there’s stuff that’s normalized and accepted for the wealthy but dismissed and looked down on for the poor. It’s not just that hoarding the money is itself accepted, but also that someone who hoards money will find that all of their other antisocial and concerning behavior is also acceptable in the eyes of the public
Money makes a very effective blindfold.


Hmmm. Interesting, I hadn’t thought of that. So maybe there’s a need for a bike horn that’s super loud and that you can trigger with a finger while you’re braking.


You could probably get a ton of mileage out of an aerosol air horn, if those are available in your area.


The theme park opened in 1964. If you’re over the age of 80 and have been living in the same house since age 20, and it just happens to be next to Universal Studios Hollywood, ok, I think you have a bit of an argument (though honestly, you probably should’ve brought this up sooner). But for everyone else, you knew what you were getting into when you bought a house in that neighborhood.
Big companies do terrible, awful, harmful stuff all the time. This isn’t one of those times. They even built the ride extra quiet to help make life better for you. They didn’t have to do that, because again, you’re the one who bought a house next door to a theme park.
The devs don’t really care, usually. It’s the publishers that hate this.


“Uh oh, is there a baby in the back seat? That’s super dangerous! We better get the baby some air!”
“…oh, there wasn’t? Oops. Well, my heart was in the right place.”

What if you contact them and tell them you’re not using a smartphone anymore? Surely they have another option for old people who don’t have smartphones.

Agreed, but since it’s FOSS, I’m not worried. If it implodes, there will be forks available and the migration path will be fast. In the meantime, Bitwarden is (imo) the most polished option.


Bitwarden has been great.


“50-60%” is literally “a majority,” I don’t know what to tell you. Math.


oh no way
all I have to do is tank my gpu performance, and I get a non-deterministic result, plus it looks substantially worse?
dang yo, where do I sign up


“Slop” is not determined by quality, but by intent. If no one responsible for making it cares about the quality of the output, it’s slop, regardless of how well-made it might be; on the flip side, even if something is really bad, it isn’t slop if the people making it are really passionate about doing the best they can. Kurzgesagt might be low quality, and it might be slop, but the two are not necessarily dependent upon one another.


According to the boyfriend, yeah, that’s exactly what happened. The argument was probably a cause of the accident, but not a motive for murder.


Don’t forget to read beyond the headline, folks! The headline makes it sound like she was killed because of the argument, but based on the account of the events in the story, that isn’t what happened. He was clearly drunk and handling a firearm recklessly (and probably more than a little bit trying to “own the libs”), but according to the late girl’s boyfriend who was nearby, the father was horrified and screaming for help immediately after this happened. This wasn’t any sort of “honor killing” or anything, just an idiot redneck being an idiot.
That’s a wide opening for a lawsuit, though. This is the kind of thing they’re probably telling the truth about, at least in as much as what they intend to do.
