Irony, since Scarlet had dubbed over the original voice actor Samantha Morton because in post Spike Jonze realized the voice needed something “different”. So in the movie they needed to turn the dial up a bit, while in reality they started at 11 and had to dial it back.
“They modified it a bit.”
“Whatever they did, it WASN’T ENOUGH!”
Not all Hyundais (or older cars) are the same. I get the spirit, but while my 17 year old Santa Fe has a lot of miles on it, I’d rather the assholes just stay away so I don’t have to go through the experience of a wreck, insurance, and possible new car payments on a newer vehicle that I have to relearn all the quirks. So I let the idiots fight each other and watch from afar as much as possible, which includes being a “beta” driver. But that’s what they taught us, right? Defensive driving?
Buy a used older model if you need a machine. Because it’s cheaper, because it is more basic in its components, because those parts are probably cheaper to buy and replace yourself if need be, and mainly because someone is selling it at its age because it STILL works. Anything tied to a circuit board with a processor is a time bomb.
Close enough, it’s not blocking a space. Better to be secure, but got to take what wins we can get. It’s possible that when that cart was brought there the corral was full and the person retrieving them didn’t get the loner. It’s like the pictures of the car parked across several spots without the context that there was snowfall and no lines were visible then.
That’s some serious ice layers if it not only derails a train but supports its weight over to the road.
A safe bet that if it’s outside the U.S., it’s Celsius. I don’t think anyone would be alarmed about 60F even on the heat bulb chart.
It’s certainly a chaotic mess, but perhaps knowing the original subject of the comic tarnishes my take on it being used for other things in the same way. Analogies are often tricky.
The only issue with this adaptation of a great comic is that it infers the Confederacy was a well built structure that depended on that one small thing. The Confederacy didn’t exist that long, it even didn’t have a single flag version for longer than a year or so. Change it to the southern states’ economy and it makes more sense.
You’re right in that it’s not meant to have an answer as it’s normally told philosophically. But the biological and evolutionary answer is that there is no dividing line to give that answer because species don’t change with individuals but with large populations over great amounts of time. We see those lines because we find fossils of things related to but different enough to others to call them a different name. And the real mind blower is that almost all creatures that did exist never left fossils to find.
The false dilemma of the chicken and the egg shares the same misunderstanding that the “missing link” fallacy does. There’s no line between things except over time and thousands of generations.
What comes between chickens and their non-chicken ancestors? The problem is in our human need to classify everything into different neat boxes, when it’s an actual long and continuous process. In short, the “dilemma” created is more of an argument about what separates species, and that’s a hell of a rabbit hole with no single answer.
But the answer is the egg, since a chicken born from that egg is different than its parents.
I’ve played some action games in the teens and was fine with it. Maybe lower frame rate at low resolution (1080) isn’t as apparent as the high 4K, but I’ve never understood why people can’t play with frame rates still far faster than film (if it’s truly refreshing the frames completely and not ripping the picture of course). I suppose this argument goes the same direction as the vinyl/CD one, with both opinions dead sure they’re right.
If the game is handling variations of frame rates during play badly, that’s a different story. The goal is for the player to not realize there’s a change and stay focused on the game.
“But you do know who I am.”
“Yes. Because you don’t use a VPN, dumbass.”
They know how to take a reservation, they just don’t know how to keep a reservation.
The airlines can maximize that idea as well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooks\_(1781\_ship)#/media/File:Slaveshipposter.jpg
What will always get you is doing something unusual. When working, always have a safe procedure for moving and be very careful when doing things a different way. When at home or at leisure, don’t go beyond the limits of what you’re used to doing without planning and prep. And know those limits! I’ve pulled my back a few times before and I wasn’t doing anything more than usual, but I was doing it differently, and it got me.
Those who say it with a hard G must also say JFEG using the same logic. I’m fine with someone saying it either way, it’s been around so long that I think the choices tend to be regional (aka BBS era).
Humans had one purpose in the universe - to produce plastic. Mission accomplished.
I try to be impartial and let them dig the hole themselves. Silence so far is damning.

I agree that’s it’s a “hate the game, not the player”. The issue is how much influence he could have to steer the market to favor his product vs. the competition. It’s happened so many times in history where the better product fails because they can’t play the game like the inferior company.
To quote “Pirates of Silicon Valley”:
Steve Jobs: We’re better than you are! We have better stuff.
Bill Gates: You don’t get it, Steve. That doesn’t matter!
So is it fair for the consumer for big companies to be able to influence the game itself and not just play within the same rules? I’d say no.
