@tk I'm bummed that just as trucking's looking attractive again, the really fun stuff technology gave us to semiautomate the manuals that dominate the industry and give us the best of both worlds are trying to be forced out for slushbox torque convertors again in automatic trucks.

And stick shift manuals suck for sleeper cabs.

@tk The fuck? Y'all know the ceramic crock pot itself is dishwasher safe, right? Trust me, it works...we make stuff in the crock pot all the time.

@feditips Im pretty sure I've heard "webfinger ID" come up more since I think this is the first time I've heard "fediverse address". YMMV, and my brain is toast from this morning.

@tk Meanwhile I'm still looking at that like "how do you misspell millennial?"

@lanodan At least when I left Portland, the bakfiets parking was universally either at the metal scrapper hangout or the police impound, which either way you'd never get it back because it needed to have a local license plate that they stopped issuing in the 90s to claim a bicycle from impound, and tweakers are tweakers.

Resharing this old photo (not sure if Sunset TC gets much more people parking there now, it's an absolutely crap location to get to any way except transit and there's nothing in walking distance now that the Cedar Hills Shopping Center is dead).

Someone wanted proof that disabled bicycle parking is a thing.

Worst. Fleshlight. Ever.

It's official, #NPR confirms: #Twitter is useless.

@thomasfuchs This took a considerable amount of work since the default formatting for unclicked links going back forever is blue underlined text.

Also could we please, please stop fucking with link text styles and let the browser do its job please?

@tk I remember when you could get every optional feature worth getting (so, everything but an automatic transmission) for just barely under $9000 off the lot new on a Kia Sportage.

@feld Suggestions that will definitely have me sleeping in my pickup

@tk There's a little Guy Fiero in all of us.

@awl

Any blocklist that's unquestionably trusting mastodon.art's judgement as a basis for moderation is not using sound judgement and shouldn't be implicitly trusted by anyone.

@feld Hey man, don't lump us in with this boomer-ass science-denial shit...

Heh, so KiwiEV blocked me after I pointed out they could have put up trolleylines and had better electric buses than battery buses at any point in the last century.

I guess truth hurts.

@jollyrogue It's not even close to being a competition or we would have been using battery busses back then too...the overhead lines just give way too much advantage.

@feld Whoosh. I'm saying ReiserFS missed its opportunity, ext3/4 already ate its lunch.

@feld This seems to conveniently ignore that Edward had no access to accounts and effectively no say at NameSys, to such a high degree that NameSys offices never reopened after Hans arrest.

@feld This far past the half life of Hans arrest, I'm guessing it's far less radioactive as irrelevant.

@feld LOL, no dude, cancel culture had nothing whatsoever to do with it. Hans Reiser *was* NameSys. Without him, there was no company. Without the company, there was nobody working on ReiserFS.
