- Comment on Insuranace is a joke 1 week ago:
The hopefully only car I’ll ever total was about 20 years ago. I bought it for 7k and drove it for 5 years. They initially lowballed me at like 3k. I was able to show them Kelly blue book values and current used market it was closer to 6. Ended up getting a little over 5k.
Of course in the 5 years since I got the car the used market was nothing like it previously was. A comparable purchase would have been 12k not 7k.

- Comment on Is anyone NOT steaming their Music? 2 weeks ago:
I mostly use qobuz when out and about and vinyl at home. Music streaming is the one streaming media I don’t find objectionable as a consumer. All the services have pretty much the same catalog so pick based on features. I still buy my favorite albums though so the artist actually gets money.

Dang you will be impressed with the screen on anything you pick up. Resolution and contrast on the text is much better these days.

He probably did. You know all the republicans hate most what they can’t accept about themselves. Grindr servers crashed in AZ leading up to his memorial.

Ahh a “good christian man” he was anything but. Why do all of the “good christians” go against everything Jesus taught? Why do they only use his name to oppress others? A true christian would welcome and accept those that are different not try and belittle and shame them for their differences.
Begone CHUD.

Floppies read just fine today with usb drives. I read and write floppies for a bunch of weird, old computers at work just fine. I expect that sata hardware will still be pretty accessible in 30 years even if it isn’t standard on future PCs.

Yeah isn’t that what they call it? I can’t keep track of all the names Elon comes up with to mean this car can drive itself even though it can’t.

Don’t forget it will turn off FSD a millisecond before you splatter the kids as to prevent Tesla from being at fault.
- Comment on what 3 months ago:
I can’t tell if this is a shitty seller or shitty bidder. It could be a 25 dollar item the seller thinks is worth 350, or it could just be someone looking for a score.
If I’m making a serious bid I take 10-20% off max.

I wanted a cybiko so bad as a teen. It seemed like it would be so cool if everyone I knew bought one. Of course no one did, but I still think they are awesome.
- Comment on YSK that apart from not having a car, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat 3 months ago:
Reading this I should live like a medieval peasant and only eat potatoes, onions, and root vegetables and drink nothing but beer. I’m kinda down with that.
