Torment does not create torment. It’s being created by the torment factory within the nexus. Nexus was not valued.

Goose was not valued

Okay, I won’t pass judgment until I see the actual real-life price of the truck with the modification for an additional row of seats and can compare that to other car models.

Sorry, my European brain cannot fathom how such a pickup truck bed could be useful in daily life.

But those are usually 5-seaters while this looks like a two seater. And it doesn’t have a trunk, just this weird truck bed that does nothing to protect your stuff against the weather. I like the design philosophy of this truck, but I’d argue that you get much more value out of a compact car.

I ran from Reddit because I’m trying to avoid big US tech monopolies in favor of smaller, less monopolistic goods and services. I’m happy with drinking my local brand of cola, using European email and cloud storage providers and getting my share of news and commentary from Fediverse sources. Works out great for me.

I think power-tripping moderators is exactly what the web needs. I loved the age of bulletin boards. Maybe it’s nostalgia, but I remember the quality of discourse being significantly higher on those moderated platforms. And more importantly, the number of low-quality posts, trolls etc was way lower, because someone would correctly identify bullshit and just delete it.

The page with all the different packing optima is one of my favorite pages on the internet: https://erich-friedman.github.io/packing/index.html

The EU has solved this problem already. europass.europa.eu

Why exactly am I, a human who has to pay bills, supposed to be excited about this or to support it?

Why can’t an AI have its own interests? :(

Let the AI have hobbies and interests you crazy bastards!

Weird ass pictures like this are less surprising once you realize that all religious art is just Bible fan art.

If you talk about the problems people actually have, and you suggest solutions without getting distracted by dancing clowns, you win elections. In the US, Zohran Mamdani demonstrated it, and in Hungary, Peter Magyar. The problem is, many politicians are easily distracted. They think they could score points by pointing out problems in the clowns choreography, when they should be talking about their agenda instead.

I’m getting the feeling they just put a dancing clown in front of us so we don’t start talking about real problems and demanding solutions for them. I hate to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but the entire Trump presidency is one big distraction. We could be talking about and working towards solutions to societies problems, but now the news cycle is a 24/7 clown show.

Fair point

I have simply blocked a certain user who uploaded a lot of stuff I didn’t like. It was just one user uploading the same type of comic over and over.

Ah, The Orb, absolute classic. Sometimes people would get out of their cars to check out our contraption. Their abandoned cars would be found weeks later in the old creek. Good old times.

My renter complained that her dishwasher was broken. Bought her a new dishwasher. Complaints stopped because dishwasher works.

You - a deviant, horny, kinky, dirty, getting hard on anthropomorphic animal porn.

Me - an art critic, established, respectable, pure, enjoying masterful artwork.

When I’m up at night and I can’t sleep… does that mean that there are monsters nearby?
