"Oops, left a mess (had a crumb on the counter). $350 cleaning fee."

Yep. Head in the office did an interview with him a while ago (before we knew why Ken Martin didn't want to release the 2024 retrospective), and I remember thinking he just sounded like a guy tired of dealing with obvious bullshit.

My guess is it makes spoofing accounts seem more valid, also maybe boosts small time channels by creating (fake) engagement, so the YouTube algorithm picks up content from that channel. My "proof" is that when you see a shorts video with random top 5 family guy compilations (or other such bullshit), their comment section is usually filled with stupid responses like this (or asking what the source of the material is, despite it often being in the title).

Oh no, I'm aware (and really want a Suzuki jimny here, much better than a jeep in a similar form factor as you noted), but Jimmy and Jimny sound so similar that I would just cause confusion between the two brands, which is why I figured that would be why they didn't use the name.

Not OP, but increasingly it looks like it will be, given recent history and current ram pricing (even for mobile devices).

Funny enough, we do have old Jimmy's, but they were from GMC (just rebadged Chevy blazers). Probably why Suzuki couldn't use the name in the states.

I mean if I'd have to get rid of my gaming pc I'd make the same downtrodden face.

No, we just have far the many that are completely guided by their donations. The electorate can usually recognize them, if they even hear about them, which is getting harder given the sheer amount of money flowing around that doesn't like progressive candidates. Honestly, a good example to see it is probably the Michigan Senate primary, where Abdul El-Sayed is running against Haley Stevens, and Abdul (the very much more progressive candidate) is hopefully gonna win (wild amounts of money are being spent on Stevens, like at least 10 mil on ads thus far). The electorate isn't completely dumb, they just often have the wool pulled over their eyes by moneyed interest groups, which is why I'm always annoyed by candidates who clearly don't have central beliefs and can change their views to suit whatever they need, usually to the ones where they can get the most donations for their campaign.

Agreed, but he is a Nazi, so thinking isn't really a strong suit...

Yeah, but are we talking what the Democrats want, or the Republicans? Because it seems like Newsom can't really tell the difference.

Yep. He basically argued that being famous as a Nazi was already making it impossible to find work, and a mark on his record would just make it worse. And then mentioned the second kid on the way to sell the sob story.

Hopefully not coming off as too much of an ass, but normies largely won't care, as it doesn't immediately affect them. Knowing it's a bad thing requires a bit of understanding about an operating system that most people just don't know or care to learn about.

 

Simple idea, basically uses ice as the storage medium for solar energy.

Found growing in a pot with a hibiscus plant, not entirely sure how it got there but the recent excessive rainfall has made it fruit.

 

Went on the Blue Ridge Parkway this week, and had a blast! The Parkway feels amazing with the top down, and all of the curves make for some interesting driving.

 

I recently took a trip down the Blue Ridge Parkway, and I got something I though y'all might enjoy along the way!
