There’s only two classes. There’s nothing in the middle.

If you’re in doubt which class you belong to, look at the paycheck. Does it have your name on it? Then you’re one of the ones who get paid.

If that even made sense, it would be even more reason to deny him it.

I think every country in the world will recognize this declaration just as well as the weather followed his sharpie drawings in 2019.

I wish it was just a website. You can’t even download Android Studio or any other starter package without being forced into some kind of AI bloated IDE just to write “hello world”.

On every single skateboard post or short video, somebody will mention Mullen too.

But anyway, outside of skateboarding, millennials also know of Bam, Sheckler and maybe Dyrdek.

Gen-z probably knows of the YouTubers that show up in their feeds. SkateIQ (Mitchie Brusco), SkateNomad (Mike Boisvert) and probably Andy Anderson because he’s everywhere.

I think it’s safe to say that skateboarding isn’t as mainstream as it used to be when MTV was the main youth cultural feed, but it also allows for a lot more unknown people to rise up. Nobody cares about what young dude Thrasher and the industry wants to portrait as a professional. The skate scene these days basically consists of old men and young women watching footage on YouTube.

“Nippon” isn’t hard to pronounce for Germans, either.

I don’t know about that. Even if Germans are not shy of pronouncing letters wrongly (using V as F for instance), the P in Nippon makes no sense in German. It would have to be spelled with an H to make the right sound.

There’s some survivorship bias to that. Most of my favorite movies are the 1970s, but that’s also the best of an entire decade.

I’m sure there’s an equal number of good contemporary movies, we just don’t know which yet.

It’s the same grid as most of Europe. AC 3 phases 50 hz 230/400 V.

Other places can do the same, but it’s a legal issue rather than technical. It’s difficult to tax.

I was surprised when I read about it too, but it’s true, they quite literally just plug them right into the normal plugs.

It works because there’s a certain tolerance on the German breakers that allow for power to reverse. The balcony panels take advantage of this. However this also limits the possible output to whatever the tolerance is, otherwise it would overload and shut off or worse.

Bicycle tires were invented by Dunlop and improved by Michelin.

You know these names, because it actually wasn’t a dumb idea.

This PC wasn’t for myself. The user only needs it for webmail and other browser stuff, but still insisted on it having Windows and MS office.

It seems to work fine now, but I guess I will see it again soon enough.

I just setup a new laptop. Straight from the store, never been turned on before.

First thing in the Windows installation is a step called “something went wrong”. Not even kidding.

MS is slop, with or without AI.

Can they make it stop too? Not taking any chances on this.

EU has an allow system, which is the reason the CyberTrucks is not on the EU market. It would not be able to pass the safety requirements if they attempted.

On a similar note, the EU also has an allow system for all vehicles already on the road. Every single vehicle is inspected every two years, with the first check for new cars being after 4 years. This system keeps older rusty cars away from the roads.

Tesla’s other models have an issue passing even the first test. It’s the brand with the highest failing rate of all car brands.

Yes 22 would make sense to the alien.

They also used the classic they knew what they were doing shortcut.

I remember having pre-paid with cash before.

The machine would take the note and stop the pump when it reached the price. If you overpaid, that’s your problem. If you didn’t get a full tank, that’s not a real problem, you still got what you paid for.

It’s sort of like when stations had attendants and you’d pull up and ask them to fill up for a tenner or something.

The whole explanation about screen size is telling.

The entire point of Windows being named Windows is that apps can run inside these resizable rectangles nicknamed windows.

Yet the rectangular taskbar is apparently impossible to handle…

That 10 guy is totally biased.

We should hear from both sides.
