- Comment on Map of the different climates in Australia 1 week ago:
I would not consider Los Angeles and southern Nevada to be the same climate. I can stand to be outdoors during the day in LA in the summer, but not Las Vegas.

This is a great explanation of why I feel dirty just driving somewhere over the course of 8-10 hours. Sure I’m not getting dirty, but I’m not passively exfoliating either.

Well Liesl was definitely down. At least in the first act. But yeah, Rolf brought some serious intensity to the ending scene.

There are a few hints at the Nazis early on and throughout, but yeah. The last 15-20 minutes are car chases, tense hiding scene, and a standoff. Nothing like the movie up to that point.

What if they don’t have a web server that can connect to their mainframe, and you’re waiting on a DMV employee to become available to actually handle your requests?
- Comment on Canoo spent double its annual revenue on the CEO’s private jet in 2023 5 weeks ago:
Canoo has revenue? They’re not selling cars yet. Probably ought to be better with the runway cash but pretty much all their expenses are going to exceed their revenues to they’re making cars.

Betting it’s not leather. Leather doesn’t melt. It will burn, but never liquify. It clearly appears that the outer layer liquified. Also this screams prank to me, but good quality, oiled leather should also hold up ok to 350 for 15 mins.
- Comment on This laptop released in 2016 no longer receive OS updates. Which means I can't update Chrome Browser 5 weeks ago:
The whole point of a chrome book is to push you to use Google’s online services. I think you are still better off if you can do that with Linux running the machine.

Not that I’ve found. There are plenty of ways to find a number of a business. But harder to find legitimate ways to find people’s numbers. And it’s almost impossible to reliably find the owner of a phone number.
- Comment on This is the way 1 month ago:
I want to be able to search the phone numbers in maps. Searching Google sucks because of all the algorithm gaming scam sites. I just want to know if this number is a local business I might actually want to talk to.

I’m running a game for my kids and their friends. We’re already using medieval sets and mini figs for scenes and battle maps. This is great news in my opinion.
- Comment on I'm Heading to Phoenix Can Anyone Recommend Anything Cool To Check Out While I'm There? 1 month ago:
Rainbows is happening downtown next weekend. The art museum is pretty good IMO, so is the musical instrument museum. If you’re able to eat at ChinoBandido get yourself some Chinese Mexican food, highly recommend the Jade red chicken, Machaca in a quesadilla, and some pork fried rice. Take a hike, Piestewa peak is mid difficult, camelback echo canyon is pretty tough. Mill Ave for college night life. Medieval times for a fun dinner theater. Tempe beach park is a nice stroll or biking area.
Have fun in the self driving cabs, get the Waymo app while you’re here. They only work in central Phoenix.
- Comment on Could you stay in the roundabout indefinitely? 3 months ago:
Obviously it’s all going to be dependent on local laws, and depending on their vagueness the attitude of the cop that eventually has to deal with you. Here we have a catch-all ticket for “wasting finite resources” for cops to use when they don’t know what else to ticket you for. Originally it was to stop cruising, but I’m pretty sure no one has gone cruising since gas was $0.25 a gallon. Also I’m wondering if I could fight such a ticket if I can prove I charge my car with 100% solar.

- Comment on How do you find relevant technical information online? 9 months ago:
Lots of quoting for specific phrases. Instead of searching like I used to using what I feel are relevant key words:
react table sortable I now have to search for something like “Best sortable table component for react” This will lead me to some bullshit listicle that will then give me at least a few items to review, then I take the best one and start typing the components name vs and seeing what auto completes after vs
It’s all become a game and I hate it.
