- Comment on Arizona toddler rescued after getting trapped in a Tesla with a dead battery | The Model Y’s 12-volt battery, which powers things like the doors and windows, died 5 days ago:
These two remind me of the early Apple fanboys, completely talking around all the bad parts and focusing only on perceived good parts. Except, here, they’re fan-ing on a decision that was made a long time ago (using tempered glass on side windows) for exactly the reason they state is ‘bad’–it explodes into a bunch of non-sharp shards. This decision was made, and agreed upon by auto manufacturers, to prevent people getting stuck in cars on fire. Internal mechanical releases do nothing when the person inside is unconscious or is a toddler, as is in this case.

Ok

Read the rest of the comment, before you get angry. You may find that full opinions are a little easier to swallow than the partial you chose to hear.

Ignoring all that. Are he and Biden truly the best that that country has to offer, out of the ~290mil native-born citizens?? I don’t believe that.

I like that boulder. That is a nice boulder.

- Comment on Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review to access the playtest 1 month ago:
It did say “subjective negative reviews”. I would take that to mean that strictly objective negative reviews are perfectly acceptable.

^and in rare cases, death^ ask your doctor how hydrofluorizine can help change your life
- Comment on Prime Video subs will soon see ads for Amazon products when they hit pause 1 month ago:
The point is to elicit positive emotions and associate them with a brand.
Then don’t interrupt my movie or my pause time, and I won’t be pissed at you, then have a seemingly irrational anger-hate when I see you at the store, and refuse to purchase you. There are so many products I won’t buy because of this.

Are you guys taking up your pitchforks again?
… I’m debating whether to take up my “special occasion” pitchfork or my “pokabitch” pitchfork. The first is for normal rallies, and the latter is for serious events. I’m leaning towards the latter. Which one are you bringing?

- Comment on Microsoft is blocking Windows Customization Tools 2 months ago:
Not really an emulator, though the end result is similar. WINE translates the instructions sent between the OS and software to languages each other understands. It’s like a Babel Fish for Windows programs.
- Comment on Microsoft is blocking Windows Customization Tools 2 months ago:
Basically, they like to drink wine.
No. I’m kidding. WINE stands for WINE Is Not an Emulator, and it allows you to run Windows applications on a Linux machine. It’s far from perfect, but it can be a lifesaver when switching from Windows to Linux. What user melpomenesclevage is trying to say, is that you can use WINE to significantly blunt the blow / daily usability learning curve when switching, to keep some of your familiar applications as is.

I agree. It’s restricted intelligence (RI), at best, and even that can be argued against.
