I use the back buttons as alternative shoulder buttons.

My right bumper button broke and I can’t find cheap replacement daughterboards, so bandaid it is. I can’t just solder in a new switch because the leads on the PCB broke. Seems to be a failure common mode for the bumpers if you ever hit the corner or drop it. The way the bumper is designed transfers the full force directly to the PCB instead of to the shell or any actual structural component.

“Well grandma was a little racist at times”

I honestly don’t know if this would be like letting toddlers run a daycare or if it would be paradise.

It’s a little weird when a Civic Type R has the same markup as a Telluride or Sienna

Zero down may be the only way a family can afford to buy a home. In a time where older starter homes are north of 300k, we’re asking families to save 60k cash to get to 20% down. That’s about the median household income.

If you’re able to save 10% of your paycheck (after taxes), you’re going to spend about 10 years saving for today’s price. Which will likely be much lower than next years price.

Here’s the charge sheet. I think general orders in this context are service-wide instead of local orders.

I bowl maybe once a year. Bowling centers seem to be closing faster than they’re being bought up and shittified.

This kind of thing sucks, but it also might be the only thing keeping a bowling alley open that’s within 50 miles. I’ve moved a lot and there’s never been more than two bowling alleys that I know of within a reasonable drive.

What a treat

Thank you for reminding me this exists

The proportions on the person to the left

It’s a powder flavoring applied on top of a chip.

People don’t eat huge chunks of salt any more than they are eating chunks of capsaicin.

If we can salt chips, we can probably capsaicinize them too.

Yeah. Everybody pays for it, but the guilty cops pay as much as every other city resident despite being at fault.

Malpractice for cops should be something anybody who touches or is affected by a city budget advocates for, as unplanned expenditures for several million may mean cutting essential programs and staff.

Is there a tldw for this?

“Even under optimistic scenarios for the pace of physical reconstruction, the scale of destruction in Gaza has been such that, simply from the narrow perspective of moving in building materials, it would still take until 2040 and probably longer to restore the housing units destroyed since the start of the war,” the researchers concluded.

Article explains the reasoning. They chose the metric of moving building materials into devastated areas

This shit can destroy companies and tank its value

Leaving hundreds of contacts in limbo with no resolution has the potential to cost more than $17 million in legal fees and termination clauses.

Where the fuck is the board of directors and why are none of the shareholders revolting?

Cameras are (generally) passive systems. They do not send out light and analyze the returns. They just absorb light and reconstruct a scene.

Radar systems are active. They send out pulses or continuous waves of EM energy at different frequencies than light (much lower) and analyze the returns. They do not need existing light to do their jobs because they’re sending out and receiving their own specific emissions. Because they run at lower frequencies than light, they are able to “see” through certain weather phenomena like fog and are relatively unfazed by darkness.

That all being said, you can measure things passively and actively. Radar is pretty damn good at measuring distances, as that’s the entire reason behind its invention. I’d say its much more reliable and accurate compared to optical systems.

Imagine how quickly legislators would enact change if the trades unions to include HVAC joined the protest and began striking. You can only sit inside of a 90f building for so long.

Exactly. It’s not rocket appliances

We have plenty of things to be old grumpy grouches about.

“Those banks ruined the American dream and we bailed them out!”

“Fossil fuel companies successfully lobbied the government to allow them to poison our planet in the name of profit!”

“Those Disney crooks consolidated all media and destroyed independent creative ventures!”

“Back in my day we could afford a house if we saved 10 years of earnings for a down payment and then took out a loan eventually totaling twice the value of the purchase price. You kids have it easy with your rental sleeping pods and low-monthly rate outdoors park subscriptions. You don’t even contribute to furniture or clothing industries because you don’t own a place to put any!”

Down in Cop City, just outside of Atlanta! For all of your cop needs.
