That’s definitely not what came to mind when I read “classic Japanese cars”, my mind went to stuff like the Toyota AE86 and the Miata. And from there, to the likes of the Mitsubishi Lancer, Toyota Supra, Subaru Impreza, Nissan Skyline, all those cars I drooled over when I used to play Gran Turismo as a kid (and still drool over, tbh).

A classic Japanese car? Like those nimble little things that drift down crazy steep mountains and stuff?

I always knew that THIS is how kidney beans looked, I’ve been lied to my whole life.

Makes a lot of sense, not gonna lie.

I’d do it just to style on the new guy, start with something like “ah, so humanity has lost the skills that we possessed in the days of yore…”

(TL note: this is in reference to companies refusing to up the pay for their skilled workforce, and ending up paying more to new guys that’ll have to learn it all from scratch)

It’s complicated. Technically no, but God can roll out a new image with the updates, so in practice, yes?

Why is religion never simple…

I get the feeling in OPs post, but for those unfamiliar, there are more people on the ballot other than the 2 main picks. This even varies by state, as they can have different criteria for defining who makes it to the ballot.

So perhaps a black woman has at some point ran for president (as in, made it to the ballot at least)?

I’d start by checking her bras, maybe she left them there?

Are you daft? Why do you think it has TWO wings and TWO doors? And clearly you’ve never been invited to the under cock pit, where they keep plugs fit for any hole.

(is joke don’t bite)

What.

The article says that, for the GPUs, they can have a “maximum power draw of 45,000 W at full tilt”.

The 28 million W comes from the full system, and surely the massive displays, LEDs and eventually sound system makes up the bulk of that, the gfx cards are a rounding error…

I use TZ identifiers, and confirm the expected behaviour (“Berlin time, correct?”), as then I know how I should handle DST changes.

It should be implemented in people’s brains.

How this goes, usually, is:

Them:…before 6PM.

Me: 6PM… Ours? The server’s? The user’s?

Them: GMT, of course.

Me: So that’s 7PM London right now, and changes to 6PM in November?

Them: What no are you stupid. Always 6PM GMT.

Me:* jumps off a cliff*

Was talking mostly about YouTube videos, think PewDiePie minecraft series, with millions of views.

Fun stat: Bitch Lasagna counted 8 million views in 2023 alone, despite being released in 2018.

Being skillful at some random computer game doesn’t fill anyone’s pockets.

Being entertaining, however, brings in ridiculous amounts of cash, if you’re “the peak of talent and skill for it”.

You’re totally missing the mark: many of these guys are very, very good at creating entertaining content. They pull more views than NFL matches on the daily, so if anything, I’d say they’re beating top athletes.

The game they happen to be playing doesn’t even matter all that much, because it isn’t about the game being fun. It’s about that specific guy being fun to watch.

You’re just hunkering down inside your bubble, while offering nothing to the conversation.

There’s a BYD stand close to where I work, I was looking at a “Dolphin” that has around 500 miles of range and costs 30k€.

That’s still twice as what’s in the meme, but they keep getting closer.

If you have some sort of grudge against China automakers, Dacia has its Spring. It costs about what’s in the meme, but with half the range though.

It’s not hard to see a future where 350 miles for 15k is a reality, but the market needs competition.

I think it’s from S1E7, they’re about to learn this guy is small fry.

This episode also has the best star trooper dialogue ever, when they’re waiting for clearance to enter the town, really funny stuff!

In many countries, the government does have a record of you purchasing that electric car charger as long as you ask the seller to include your tax number in the receipt - which you need to do if you want to file it - and it all comes automatically pre-filled in my tax deductions. Its become really easy to do taxes, it’s literally 3 clicks for most people.

I presume OP works at a decently sized company, and they have magical people like PMs and CSMs that turn customer tantrums into neat little cards that he can push down the kanban.

Not if you’re the one who caused the funeral.
