Even better, when they film vertically, and then encode it to widescreen. Ensuring that no matter how you view it on a phone it's microscopic.

Win 7 64-bit handily beats any distro of Linux at .69% (nice). Comparing only to 32-bit isn't a fair comparison. Not that I'm against using Linux, I use Pop_os on a spare computer as a Linux test bed for gaming.

This rolls in nicely with your point, but how do you even poll gen z or millennials? The younger generations don't pick up the phone anymore, we don't respond to random emails, we certainly don't respond to snail mail, we mostly don't own houses and those that do likely won't go talk to people at the door. Maybe they've got ways to deal with that properly, but I think many of the main polling methods don't really work for younger people who are a growing voter pool. Mostly due to unending ads and scams that are pushed on us.

True, but thankfully there are a lot of choices in that space, and it's constantly growing. And if there aren't, a lot of times it's possible to make one (or buy someone's) using an esp32 or similar. Zigbee, zwave, and matter devices should all be possible to run local only.

Absolutely agree. Bethesda games have always been "go fuck around and find random stuff to do" games to me and I'm having a lot of fun so far. I enjoy just "living in" the universes they make. It took me over 100 hours to reach the main stadium town in Fallout 4 because I would go off and explore waymarkers and make my own fun. And that's a place you're supposed to go relatively early in the main story, IIRC. I would certainly not call it a 10/10 because it definitely has problems, but none have gotten in the way of my enjoyment so far.

You don't even need photoshop. Just use the inspect function in your browser and edit the values directly in the HTML. Free and much easier to not fuck up the formatting.

Yeah, which is why you shouldn't use strong household cleaners around kids, and should only use it with proper ventilation and a respiratory device if warranted. And smoking is bad, don't do it around your kids.

And I can understand why when you abuse the word "literally" like that. What you mean is that she's figuratively Dolores Umbridge from Harry Potter. /s

It may be more difficult than a relatively static price, but if they can figure out how to charge it, they can figure out how to display it. Any ISP sites I've used have you put in zip code anyway to view services. There's no reason they can't set it up to show the exact fee rates per area. I know you said you're not defending them, but "it's hard" isn't really an excuse.

That is a bit surprising for the reasons you say. EVs having less reliability overall kinda makes sense given the market is still going through growing pains. I'm betting it will improve quickly given that most manufacturers are still ramping up production.

If I already had a Tesla I don't know that I'd sell it because of him, but he was one of the major factors in me not even considering them when I was shopping for my EV. The other reasons being shoddy quality control, shitty practices, and dumb design decisions. All of which probably stem from him anyway.

How are they flipping themselves off if your fingers point towards yourself when doing a thumbs up?
