Wow that’s neat. There’s a Dairy Queen sort of near me, I’ve driven past it a million times, but I thought they only sold ice cream so I’ve never gone in.

Maybe she lives in Jersey with the cows there?
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 11 hours ago:
This is insane to me, for some reason I thought they were an ice cream store.
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 11 hours ago:
This makes a lot of sense actually.
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 11 hours ago:
I didn’t know that they used to not sell food. All I know is that I didn’t expect them to sell food.

This is a Berenstain moment for me…

Ask who?
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 21 hours ago:
They aren’t ice cream stores though…
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 21 hours ago:
I disagree with your premise.
Why?
It didn’t used to be, but that’s how it is now.
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 21 hours ago:
Why can just mean explain something that is unexpected. Which you did with the history lesson. It doesn’t have to answer causality.
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 21 hours ago:
I would never do that to a French Fry.
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 21 hours ago:
At least the other fast food places don’t have names like “Ben &Jerry” or “Baskin Robbins”
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 21 hours ago:
Wow
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 21 hours ago:
Not necessarily.
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 22 hours ago:
Historic facts can be an answer.
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 22 hours ago:
How long have they been a fast food store? I thought they were an ice cream shop
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 22 hours ago:
Thanks for the actual answer!
- Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food? 22 hours ago:
That makes too much sense :/

- Comment on Why can computers, like even very old laptops can seemingly get OS updates forever, while mobile devices hardly get a few years of updates before getting stuck out of date? 1 day ago:
It would be fine if we lived in a utopia, but not fine when corporations have the power to require that you use one, or else you can’t use their services.

The fact that perfectly capable PCs aren’t getting security updates is just part of it. Once Microsoft and other corporations can ensure that your computer is no longer completely controlled by the user (as the TPM ensures) they can start locking it down, first in the name of security, but then just like how some phones have apps that you can’t uninstall, or how printers force you to use name brand ink at a huge markup.

This is changing. Microsoft is trying to restrict Windows 10 -> uploads based on having a user-hostile TPM module to make PCs more locked down, just like phones.
- Comment on Spicy food never affects my gut and everyone thinks it's really weird. How unusual is this and what could be happening to explain why spicy food doesn't affect me? 1 day ago:
I think the next step is to eat something even hotter and in larger amounts, if you want to find out. Otherwise just count yourself lucky!

So like … Can you keep eating even more spicy food until it does affect your suggestion and then let us know how spicy you had to go?

You have different definitions of “political”
In my country at least, there are differences of opinion about whether queer people can exist in public, use the bathroom, etc., and the people in power are endangering everyone. So pride is very much political.

I still remember one time as I was a new driver, I saw a friend in the other lane, and I told my parents, “look, there’s my friend!” And I looked over at her, and started accidentally turning my car into the direction I was looking.
My parents quickly told me to drive straight, and I got control of the car again, but this goes to show that it IS a skill to be able to look around, at mirrors, at the blind spot, etc, without also moving the steering wheel. But you will get better at it with more practice and especially good experienced drivers or instructors helping you practice.
