Grotesque.

Named windows 365 because that’s how many days of the year you’ll pay for it (and hate it).

People talk a good game but in the end most blindly follow the path of least resistance.

60% is the one true way!

Sure, it’s not just propaganda, but there’s definitely a lot of conservative and oil industry-friendly propaganda jammed in there.

I stopped watching after they set up finicky nonbinary person as some kind of poor, misguided, slightly evil fool. They sure tore that strawman (strawperson?) down!

Fuck that shit. There may be some interesting stories in there but I’m exposed to enough fascist propaganda without willingly choosing to watch it.

Compromise: butter your phone

I agree. I’m very skeptical about their claims and so far I can’t find any evidence of 3rd party verification of anything. All the “news” about their batteries is just glorified press releases.

In the context of lithium-ion batteries, “solid state” means that there’s no liquid electrolyte, rather than meaning there are no moving parts.

If you want silliness and pop culture references, Dungeon Crawler Carl should do the job

The books follow a similar quality arc. The first one is great but each subsequent one gets less great. He could’ve done so much more.

I loved this series! Now I’m gonna have to watch it again

They might, I don’t know. But I don’t go to the dealership anyway and wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

Do yo want something like this?

In most vehicles with onstar (Chevrolet mainly) you can pretty easily disconnect the cable that connects the computers to the antenna. You need to install a dummy load to keep it from turning on the check engine light but other than that it’s trivial. Once that’s done, the car will still collect data but it can’t send it anywhere. Just don’t take the car to the dealership for maintenance or they might “fix” the antenna connection for you

The Closing of the Western Mind by Charles Freeman. It’s almost 600 pages of very information-dense prose but very well-written. It’s genuinely fascinating but I can read a dozen pages and spend a month or two thinking about them before diving in again.

Took me forever to find saddam.

Mainly you and stamets but also an oldish britcom called Reggie Perrin.
