Upvoted because I appreciate the exposure for this dating method, but I personally use it for everything. Much clearer for a lot of reasons IMO. Biggest to smallest pretty much always makes the most sense.

I think they meant a quarter of the population being illiterate, that is, that fact that such a statistic exists, is “fucking nuts,” not the illiterate population themselves.

Christian squeezing Apollo for its last bit of money
I can’t get behind this narrative. Honestly, how else do you market this product? On Twitter? On Facebook? Mastodon maybe?
Look, he’s updating an app that hasn’t been operational in months… nobody who still has that app has any illusions of it coming back. What do they expect when they open that app?
I won’t buy a plushie, since I don’t have a place for it, but I had many fond years using Apollo, and wouldn’t mind buying something like this at all, and I would have never known otherwise (except for people complaining about it online.)

What hobby seems boring to most people but is actually fascinating if you dive into it?
Hypermiling. The act of getting the most gas mileage out of your car. When you get into it, there are an insane amount of factors that play into it all, from driving habits, aerodynamic car mods, engine mods, power usage, tires, wheels, suspension, etc. the rabbit hole is deep, my friend

Standards shouldn't be behind a paywall
The difference:
2023-12-12T21:18Z is ISO 8601 format
2023-12-12 21:18 is RFC 3339 Format
A small change

Unions are like condoms
Reply in thread
I do actually agree with his initial statement, which was “if my workers need a union to stay safe, I will consider it a personal failure.”
…absolutely agreed. His conclusion of that his workers shouldn’t need one though, is the problem. They should have one. However, if the union needs to step in because he’s being a dick, then he has failed indeed. Guess it was a good thing they had a union though, right? Oh wait…

You don't really see people chewing gum anymore.
Don’t see ads for it anymore either. I kinda miss the old “how it feels to chew 5 gum” ones

Lemme used Voyager as its mobile view, not the other way around. They implemented Voyager as a better alternative to the native original view

Small car problems rule
I was at a set of train tracks behind a large truck. Well, in front of him, a car was stalled with hazards on. He looks behind him, backs up to go around the guy, and taps my front bumper. Dude’s truck was so large he couldn’t even see me in the rear view, and the side mirrors made me invisible since the wheel wells were so wide.
I don’t even drive a tiny car or anything, just a mid-sized sedan….
I hate driving or riding in large vehicles though. I feel like they’re tall, unwieldy, and I’m short, so I usually can just see high enough to drive but always feel like I’m about to hit everything. Can’t imagine having one as a daily driver.

I’m not sure what you mean. What aspects of it?
I cope with loud noises with AirPods Pro with noise cancellation.
I cope with communication issues by practicing phrases and explanations.
I cope with hyperfixation by setting schedules and alarms.
What do you need help with?

Apple won't license Masimo's patents despite Apple Watch import ban | AppleInsider

Furthermore, licensing a patent can give credibility to said patent, making it more difficult to prove in court that it was ever invalid in the first place.

The end of cool small cars
“Dope” lingo aside, I actually agree with the statements made in the article. I wish he would touch on the increasing safety standards and the like, but in general, yes. Cars are getting overall very, very large, and SUVs and Pickup Trucks are everywhere now, despite most people not needing them. I don’t pretend to know why, but it’s increasingly common.
