The hip new development near me, which is packed with townhomes and some restaurants and businesses in the middle, has so many $50K-$80K SUVs parked along the road.
That dog was threatening an all-american vehicle dammit!
It's an RPB!
Well, if Apple is getting a new CEO then Microsoft should go all in and hire Xzibit to sell copilot.
Yeeep, this right here.
I'm a nerd and software engineer, sitting in front of 4 screens right now. I own a smart watch which I wore 23 hours a day for years on end.
I stopped wearing it several months ago and I literally do not know where it is right now. I assume it's in my house somewhere. 🤷♂️
The greedy shits that run the tech world have taken it too far. The switch flipped in my brain and I just do no care about tech "products" any more. If it connects to the internet or has a screen then it's almost guaranteed to be designed in a way that goes against my best interests.
Yeah, I'm a straight married bearded husky white guy who has taken up carpentry as a hobby, and I have no interest in being part of that industry. I have a relative who is a trumper plumber and the culture fits him perfectly, lol.
One step at a time, man. It's not exactly a guarantee that prices get back under FOUR dollars a gallon in 2026 first.
Super Mario Bros (NES) to Mario 64: 11 years.
It was pretty wild growing up while Moore's Law was full steam ahead.
I can think of 3 different PCs I built and overclocked during college. Now, my everyday use computer is 8 years old and it's still pretty dang good.
A 22 is a dangerous weapon that can definitely kill somebody and needs to treated according to The Rules just like any other firearm.
What you said about bouncing around inside skeletal structures has no basis in reality, though. I'm a non-gun-nut American with some firearm experience, but my supposed knowledge doesn't matter in a world where you can watch 100 different youtube channels dedicated to shooting a variety of objects with a variety of calibers.
You might be thinking in the right direction, though, about situations where a bullet does more damage when NOT passing all the way through because it has dumped all its energy into the target along with expanding/fragmenting. Consider what happens when one of those youtubers shoots through water. Usually the smaller handguns like 22 or 9mm get decent penetration while high-powered rifles with multiple times the kinetic energy and momentum fall short of those. But because of the rapid energy dump you get other effects like a high splash.
Yeah I have. It's bonkers, but it is also indicative of our culture. sadly. That's why I made a joke comparing the government's exploitation and mistreatment of military members with the rest of the economy's exploitation and mistreatment of all the other normal people. In both cases, the people in power are choosing "number goes up a little bit faster than before" over "human life and well being" repeatedly.
