I've owned plenty of shitboxes and done my share of goofy fixes, but fucking around with integral safety equipment like airbag wiring is where I draw the line and get it fixed for real. It's one thing if it's only ever you in

As others have noted, this article seems light on details/hand-wavy to draw clicks. Vehicles have had dual-circuit brake systems since 1967 (mandated), so cutting one line wouldn't do the job, plus you'd be getting a light on

Look into Speed Queen. They're known for being well-built commercial-grade machines.

Anecdotally, the people I talk to outside the U.S. see the film industry there as stuck in a Disney/Marvel pattern for the most part. Sure, there are good films, but there's a lot of cynical slop being turned out too and it's

My experience with Surfaces and, particularly, the Surface Book and its accompanying dock were such that I'd have to be paid to use one again. For example, the dock would get its own updates silently and brick itself randomly and the p

Yeah what bizarro world is their marketing team living in where that's something to tout?

I was just thinking "watch someone now invent a single-purpose easy-to-use Bluetooth hone-in device and sell it to the airlines for exactly this situation".

Yep, sounds like a bullet dodged there.

I feel like a crazy person, but I've been using Yandex as the last resort and having positive results in finding stuff that I know is out there but Google has decided to stop letting me see. (I tried DDG but for my use it's been w

Why would anyone spend the time to read something so long that's been generated by an LLM? The topic seems super interesting otherwise and would benefit from the real human voice. OP, can you elaborate on why you decided to go this dir

That and we'd soon do the same things to a new planet that we're doing to this planet. The more time humanity has to mature from a cooperation-over-conflict perspective (both with each other and other beings/the environment)

I prefer Pixlr.com myself (basically because it's Adobe Photoshop without the Adobe aspect).

How deep could an underground structure even be on the corner of an island?

Rightfully so. Unfettered capitalism will only end with a bunch of rich people producing and selling the means of living to the rest of us at just the right markup to keep their feet on our throats. Organized labor needs a resurgence in a b

The :10bux: requirement did seem to do a good job of weeding out the lowest-level trash/spammers and encouraged people to toe the (sometimes very blurry) line. I remember how absolutely godawful some of the no-signup-fee SA-offshoots w

Hackernews' approach is hellbans. FWIW that seems to work pretty well here at least.

There were also people abusing it to simply earn loyalty rewards at the theaters, e.g. people that lived close enough to theaters just going there, buying tickets, and not even seeing the movie just to pile up rewards points for free food&#

Something about their resolute "ok I'll deal with this" facial expressions while being absolute units body-wise seem right for comical astronauts.

Yep, that's exactly what it is. Still a cool project. For a split-second after reading the headline my brain thought they had gotten the Tesla software (with a lot of hackery) to control an ICE vehicle drive-train.

Great, now add the ability for me to have any non-Verified artists become completely invisible to me in the application.

In my view, the negativity was commensurate with the company CEO's increasingly erratic behavior and choices.

Yeah, to me it's not bashing or negative to call a spade a spade.

It was an early booster of Tesla, but I think it rightly went negative when the unkept promises and CEO antics started piling up.
