I assume that’s an entirely separate street just for personal pickup? because I don’t see room for a school bus to drive by

unfunny, too, of course

next you’re gonna say that murder is terrible and people shouldn’t dress up as a kirk gusher at a halloween kegger
see there’s this thing called humour, specifically dark humour, and it’s perfectly valid especially when used satirically

no, I advocate for not appeasing ignorant assholes, and if the ignorant asshole chooses to react poorly to it, let them

yeah google doing this made me stop using it as much. still need to find a permanent alternative

I don’t expect anything but a van to be able to carry a full sheet of plywood, but I can do 3x7 inside my car now, and bought a trailer for full sheets
it’s the 8 footers and general length and height of rear hatch that concerns me. even my outback is pretty low, a regular hatchback loses another few inches and that’s too restrictive on the hatch dimensions
I have accepted that I may need to just up my budget and buy a Volvo instead of a beater-adjacent vehicle
- Comment on for future fireflies 6 days ago:
sure it does.
the fireflies that are already alive have a better chance to make it to next year if they have appropriate conditions to live in
- Comment on for future fireflies 6 days ago:
conversely, I saw tons last year in the suburbs!
this year was wasps, though
- Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS 6 days ago:
Iol I’m in Ontario, similar weather. I still love the feeling of the cold air on my face. but tbf I get stuffy in cars if there isn’t fresh air coming in
- Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS 6 days ago:
I have one right now, but they stopped making wagons in 2010
they have hatchbacks and crossovers/SUVs
- Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS 6 days ago:
huh. the 1.4L in my old car is what I was referring to
my current 2.5L takes forever in comparison, so did my last 2.0L (Mazda3)
- Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS 6 days ago:
is there a proper wagon in that year? I thought it was just the sloped hatchback style still
tbh haven’t paid much attention to them because every one I see looks just ever so slightly too small
I’ll have to find one to look at, tbh I kind of hate Subaru seats, at least all the ones I’ve sat in
- Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS 6 days ago:
you don’t do that?
having the window down in the winter for the fresh cool air over your face and chest while blowing heat on your feet and hands feels great
- Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS 6 days ago:
I miss my old car where the engine was so small it got up to temp in minutes even in -30 and the airflow was so direct it felt like it was burning your hands if you aimed it right at the steering wheel
- Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS 6 days ago:
hmm, I’ll have to look at that range for my next vehicle.
for my preferred budget, I’m looking at 2010 to 2015, but that’s mostly because they stopped making economical wagons after that point (Toyota Matrix and Hyundai Elantra Touring are what I’m looking at)
it seems like even in that year range, once you get above the low cost vehicles, they start introducing shitty tech. but I haven’t looked closely enough at things in the last 10 years to see how they’ve progressed year to year, because frankly it’s just more money than I want to spend

- Comment on Microsoft is making every Windows 11 PC an AI PC 1 week ago:
they are equating “AI support” with “I want AI copilot integrated into my OS”
and that’s a big leap
- Comment on Microsoft is making every Windows 11 PC an AI PC 1 week ago:
With 68% of consumers reporting using AI to support their decision making, voice is making this easier.
sure, maybe as a reference tool. not as fucking something that can perform actions on my computer
- Comment on Landlords are parasites 1 week ago:
they’ve already paid for it
- Comment on What was I thinking? 1 week ago:
I assumed it was about pricing
here in Ontario, gas is maybe 10-15% cheaper in the morning

it’s business consulting, maybe you’ve heard of it. big money in consulting. he’s doing it right
- Comment on Huge internet outage live blog: Amazon, Disney+, Hulu, HBO Max and more experiencing issues 1 week ago:
Games like that are also baffling to me, thankfully I’ve not purchased one but I would return it as soon as I discovered the limitation if that were to happen
- Comment on What was I thinking? 1 week ago:
must be nice to live somewhere without salt
I wish I could keep cars more than 20 years old
- Comment on Huge internet outage live blog: Amazon, Disney+, Hulu, HBO Max and more experiencing issues 1 week ago:
the fact that your home network setup for this relies on an internet connection is baffling

- Comment on New Rules Could Force Tesla to Redesign Its Door Handles. That’s Harder Than It Sounds 2 weeks ago:
that style is also a problem in the winter, though less so
they are prone to breaking as they age when the door is frozen shut and you gotta pull hard
- Comment on New Rules Could Force Tesla to Redesign Its Door Handles. That’s Harder Than It Sounds 2 weeks ago:
I hate the little flip up style handle on my car, known for its winter capability, which regularly freezes enough that you’re afraid it’ll break if you pull any harder
