They were great until the dude on the left broke up the band to join Drive Shaft and got super into drugs before drowning on an extended trip to the beach.

I wonder if it has something to do with how they count users with ad blockers.

I thought it was rough-cut dimensions.

Actually, Harris was the tail-end of boomers.

They’ll he defined as a generation thay never got to be in charge.

The youngest X-ers need colonoscopies, and the Boomers still fucking refuse to step back.

MRAPs for police departments are usually scraps thrown away by the military. They tend to he in terrible shape when the military ditches them, so the “free” armored vehicles end up costing a fuckton on money to repair and maintain.

So… a PC?

They really are close to plug and play. You need to know that parts are compatible, but that’s true for anything.

They’re great when you need one or 2 and they’re used properly.

But if I need 2,000 screws, I’m going to the hardware store instead of spending 82 hours printing screws.

Sure would be nice to be privileged enough to be able to relocate myself and my family.

And, increasingly, there’s no such thing as offline.

The more impressive thing is that they managed to get the Nvidia upgrade to be backwards compatible with existing Framework 16 models.

That’s the push I need to really, truly believe they’re committed to the goal of upgradablity. Too many “modular” products have come out where the “upgraded” modules were only available if you bought the newest version of the base product.

In the next year or so, I’ll probably be buying a new laptop, and this has convinced me that Framework is probably the way to go.

Apple has EU problems. Google got legally fucked in the US with the Epic lawsuit.

Didn’t they just lose a major lawsuit over their treatment of sideloaded apps and stores?

The issue is they used to base it on vehicle classification AND size, but the manufacturers just classified everything as a light truck to getbaround hlthe regulations. So they got rid of that loophole, but now a Toyota Corolla has less-strict fuel economy standards than an old-style Ford Ranger. So they essentially outlawed small trucks.

It’s not just trucks, either. The small cargo van no longer exists. The Ford Transit Connect, Ram Promaster City, and Nissan NV200 were all discontinued around 2021 because they can no longer meet CAFE regulations at that size.

The Gord Maverick is a small truck, but it comes standard as a hybrid and has very little towing or hauling capacity as a result.

2 things:

1. The new truck has 4 doors. That’s a crew cab.
2. Part of the reason for today’s massive trucks is a change in CAFE regs starting in 2012 that bases fuel economy standards on vehicle footprint. It’s easier to make a larger footprint than a more efficient vehicle.

Those registers are for Black Friday.

That’s the point. Musk wants control over the entire internet.

If all the other internet infrastructure was abandoned, he would be the most powerful person in history. Want to regulate him afterwards? He could just shut down the internet in your region until you accept his terms.

Steam OS handhelds are pretty much the entirety of the growth.

And they ended up being more annoying to buckle for people with less mobility because they’d have to twist two directions to reach both ends of the lap belt, whereas the standard 3-point allowed them to more easily reach the belt when it was retracted.

Yeah, when I carried it all the time I was fixing shit left and right.

What it’s really good for is all the little annoyances you notice day to day that aren’t worth a trip to the garage in the moment.

Door knob slightly loose in the back bedroom? Fixed next time you walk in. Drawer sticking? Take care of it now instead of forcing it and forgetting about it later. You don’t even realize how much of that stuff there is until you have the multitool handy at all times.

And the bit driver really is a game changer. You can get a ratcheting version now too.
