The Grinch meal came with a pair of socks that don’t match.

Maybe Uber should be responsible for background checks of their drivers and hold them accountable for their actions and be able to fire them for misconduct. But that might require hiring drivers as actual employees. And then Uber could issue company vehicles.

Oh wait, I’m describing taxi companies that already existed before Uber.

The fact that we allow Uber/Lyft to operate as a way to skirt regulations that were put in place to keep people safe, and then trust Uber will implement work around solutions like this is ridiculous.

Same goes to AirBnB

May as well just reinstall the os at this point.

yay --noconfirm, type in password and then walk away

Polio, measles, mumps, rubella, etc. All the stuff we haven’t had to worry about that are apparently coming back now that vaccination rates are dropping.

Another British comedy show that is really good is Taskmaster.

An analog watch and a paper journal have been the biggest upgrades to my life I’ve made in years.

Epic and Microsoft have way more money than Valve does.

Not a game, but a game console: BMO from Adventure Time.

If I’m a 10 year old in 2002, first thing I do is go play some Melee.

Amtrak: “At least we’re not VIA Rail.”

With the current level of train infrastructure and service, I agree with you. That is why domestics flights are a thing. But trains would be a much better choice if rail wasn’t actively defunded and sabotaged for the last 70 years or so.

Its this lack of imagination of what could be (and already exists around the world) that makes everyone laugh at Americans.

Domestic flights should basically not be a thing. Trains should be the default option if you don’t have to cross an ocean.

You copy some text from a webpage and put it in your markdown/LaTeX document in your text editor, like vim. Then you use pandoc/pdf-latex to export in whatever file format you need. It never looks wonky, it looks exactly like you tell it to.

Is this something I’m too markdown/LaTeX pilled to understand?

The most recent Intel Core 2 Duo was discontinued in 2008. I doubt Intel would be able to convince anyone that this is a competing product or would cause any customer confusion. No one is going to be looking for a low end processor from over a decade ago and accidentally buy a watch.
