A vacuum cleaner would also work as a doggy Halloween costume.


There’s a little more to it than that. They also need to consider that, in cars with an analogue speed dial, the actual speed is not displayed precisely. Plus, there may be minor discrepancies between the speed dial and the actual speed, which can be affected by non-standard tyres etc. So a small “buffer” in acceptable speeds is pretty reasonable.
I recall being told by someone at a Mitsubishi factory that car manufacturers actually intentionally set the speed dials to be slightly higher speed than reality to accommodate for people’s need to break the rules just a little…!
Have a look at cars from the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s and even 80’s and 90’s


What? Who gives a shit if AI vanishes or not. The greedy turds manipulating markets and raking in the money now won’t be the ones facing the consequences; that will fall on the rest of us peasants.


I was, thank you.


Be pretty amazed if the photo was taken 1909 BCE.


If you’ve ever had a food obsessed dog you will have witnessed them going back to their food bowl some time after eating their dinner to give it another lick, just in case some food had materialised.
In our family, we believe there is a special bed time story, passed down from mother to puppy, of the Dog With the Magical Refilling Dinner Bowl. Puppies remember this story, and check their bowls every night, just in case they are lucky like the dog in the story.
In order to ensure the story lives on, for our dogs birthdays we will feed them, wait for them to finish and wander off, then quietly refill their bowls with another full dinner. Without fail, every time, our dogs will come back to their bowls and do an actual, comical, boggle-eyed double-take when they realise there is food in the bowl again.


At the time of my reply this post has only 14% upvotes, on this left leaning social space So, no, I don’t think “the left” are modern luddites. Unless of course you are an AI-bro or a crypto-bro (a nearly perfect circle Venn diagram), in which case yeah I can imagine you’d think that.


The purpose of a system is what it does. Whatever they SAY it’s for is irrelevant in the face of the obvious reality.


Fair enough but in the post I replied to you did say you won’t blame the parents “here” in the slightest, which to me means “here in this specific case”.


They already had the kid in therapy. That suggests they were involved enough in his life to know he needed professional help. Other than completely removing his independence, effectively becoming his jailers, what else should they have done?


I’ve got three. All RROD’d.


More like SAYING you’ve made a car super safe while actually it’s only safe if you never drive it above 5KM/h and never down hills, up hills, in the rain, etc

Thank you. Glad one person has the ability to actually comprehend what I said. Vivaldi - and several others - does ad blocking on iOS right now.


Firefox on iOS doesn’t offer any ad blocking. Vivaldi (and several other) Chromium browsers do. So for a good chunk of the mobile community, Firefox is not the best option.


I hear this all the time but I struggle to see how it is true. How many people regularly trawl through their feed looking for creators who haven’t posted in X days and unfollowing them? It would be a minuscule number. I’m pretty darn selective with my follows and I think I’d do this once a year, tops.
I think creators are conflating the everyday ups and downs of follower counts on their platform(s) as being something more. And I think the platforms themselves are encouraging this mentality because they need fresh content.


I’m not agreeing with cranky science person, just saying they specifically mentioned sterility in offspring as a thing in “cross species” mating.
My two dogs did this late yesterday. We occasionally throw our chickens eggs in there if the shell is cracked etc. The dogs smelled so bad it actually made me gag. I had to give them both a bath. I’m expecting the news vans any minute now.
