Very few things in life are made worse by not talking.
I’m just this guy, you know? Except on Lemmy.
Thanks to /u/crank0271 for the name
RIP Kbin.social

The Stig was originally going to be called The Gimp but the BBC didn’t approve.
So they should rename it STIG which stands for So This Is Gimp


That really depends on how much money he has.
I could t afford to bet nearly much against it but I would if the returns wouldn’t be enough to buy a soda.


Thanks I haven’t had time to watch this since Cheney died 🦀🦀🦀


I’ve been blocking ads for like 30 years. I see so little advertising I feel like an alien.


Not just peels but any veggie trimmings. Even turnip and parsnip peels.


I save my peels in a bag in the freezer and when it’s full I make vegetable stock with it.
Don’t do potato peels but everything from broccoli stalks to mushroom stems work really good.
Sometimes if there aren’t enough onion parts I add an onion.
Then I freeze it in ice cube trays and then store them in an airtight container


I don’t like paddle shifters. There’s no element of risk in missing a gear and blowing up your transmission


But even the biggest trucks out there don’t have 1,000 horsepower, and they’re built to haul heavy loads uphill in bad weather.


There are places in the US that, instead of banning giant trucks, are banning Kei trucks.
I hate this country.


My peak torque is around 2500 rpm. Horsepower peaks around 5k for me.
And I like weird, complicated things I have to think about, which is part of why I drive a manual. Downshifting from sixth to fifth, hearing the engine go up in pitch, and feeling that extra torque feels like it would be more fun than just mashing a pedal.
Do they make manual transmission electric cars?


I have the same sort of fun in my manual transmission gas car


I guess I’m really lamenting the death of the shitbox econo car.


My parents had an original Prius and it was a weedy little car that made those two hippies really happy. If that was his only experience with electric cars I can see why he’d think that.
But the new ones are fucking rockets. I just don’t understand why they need all that. Can they make a cheaper one that’s got 300 horsepower?


It’s also how we accidentally shut them down before saving our work


Reminds me of Woz’s old saying “Never trust a computer you can’t throw out a window.”


The first time a Reaper Leviathan attacks you in Subnautica.
The first time you launch a rocket in Factorio.
The first time you do a bunch of stuff in KSP.


I was thinking more



I would take a team of moderately-skilled, emotionally intelligent people over a team of expert jerks who like the smell of their own farts.
I wouldn’t want to work with a low-skilled team of anyone.
Yes, maybe that. And in trusted personal relationships.
But when it comes to the government you shut the fuck up.
Because every day is shut the fuck up friday.
