most people want connected cars, my gf loves preheating our BYD when she heads off on an early morning start before she hops in, seats and cabin have been prewarmed etc. she likes the 360 birdseye cameras and I must admit they are very good

Neither of these things require the vehicle be "connected". The cameras are entirely local to the car, naturally, and remote starters worked just fine for decades without being online.

I realised this a while ago, and it's frankly baffling to me that anyone can pretend it has any direct relationship to how well a company is actually performing. It literally doesn't matter how well a company is performing, if people buy the stocks the price goes up, if they sell the stocks the price goes down. There is no other factor that matters.

The fact that people buying and selling usually correlates with a company doing well or poorly doesn't actually mean those two things are inherently connected.

Some are bread.

After many years of being a developer I've come to the conclusion that the single strongest indicator of a person's competence is how they handle CSV when asked to produce or consume it.

That is massively more powerful than a RAW normal action unarmed attack, which does a single point of damage with no other riders.

If you have nothing else to do with your bonus action that round then it isn't really a waste of time, no matter how bad it is. 1 damage is sometimes all you need.

Being together for a month or less and not only learning that your S.O. is a-okay with being woken up in the middle of the night by manual stimulation but also having the opportunity to do so two or three times seems like an absolutely wild relationship timeline to me.

...how does 36KB RAM and 72KB ROM give you a total of 64KB?

This is basically the case with any community that isn't one of the broad topic/mass appeal subreddits. If you're looking for discussion on anything even slightly specific Lemmy and other alternatives just completely fall on their face. Whether that's support for a specific addiction or even just conversation about one particular video game series, your options are Reddit, discord, Twitter, or nothing.

...and, even if we accept that to be a generally true statement, you think that warrants arrest?

Then it hit me that you typically don't just take estrogen together and go to a Starbucks alone platonically.

Maybe I'm just unusual as well but this doesn't really sound that strange to me? I've gone to coffee shops and taken care of medical concerns in the company of platonic friends plenty of times.

Very happy it has worked out the way it has for you though.

 

I made a post here a few days ago complaining about content all being elsewhere, which was nice to vent, but doesn't really help the situation. Now I've decided to be the change.

Let's actually talk a little. What games do you all play? Tell me what you like about them!

Personally I've always been big into Street Fighter. I enjoy almost any fighting game, but the SF series is the one that I have by far put the most time into. I'm having a blast with SF6, even if I am just a diamond rated scrub. :D

 

Just venting, but if you want to avoid Twitter it means missing out on easily 90% of FGC activity, and the remaining 10% is almost all Discord and Reddit.

RIP SRK.
