The administration was in disarray and had no clear goals aside from self-enrichment. They had no real architects, merely speakers and figureheads. While it's likely that ineptitude and wheel spinning is going to occur this time as wel

There's an insistence that materials can overcome lacking texturing and normal mapping. It's not true, but it's a result of a lot of marketing fluff from things like Unreal Engine being misunderstood or misrepresented. Did yo

I'm used to the old old school way of doing things, meaning you write shit in a text editor and then run it. There's no parenting system, no hierarchies, no inheritances, no massive trees of various classes/subclasses that

A lot of sports make quite a bit of money. The problem is the facilities costs. You're spending a lot of money on a specialized building with specialized equipment. Larger markets with more money raise costs even further by raising bot

Nitter's been dead for about a year at this point. I'm pretty sure any Nitter instance still running is using some abstract method and not the actual Nitter system.

That wasn't really true during World War II. Some of the most celebrated veterans of that war were anti-authority as hell, doing things like stealing parts of fellow aircrews' planes to rebuild their own, ignoring formation to get

I use one, a General Electric clock/radio unit from 1982. I bought it about a year ago so I could use my FM transmitter hooked up to my computer to send audio at specific times. It's just nice to have a dedicated device sometimes.

I... Don't know how. The wheel cover issue had a service bulletin sent out to owners, and the suspension being stuck in the lowest position got an over the air update with a big notification. Those at least should've been known to

Well ideally it would be twenty five years from date of publication with extensions of five years upon re-release, up to three times. Meaning you could, at most, get forty years, but only if you re-released the media in question before the

The thing is, the people most likely to complain that the Cybertruck is a bad vehicle are the people who are informed about it. The wider public doesn't know about things like the tonneau cover leaking, wheel bearings failing, the susp

Open plan houses are the noisiest places to be. And for some reason the same people who like open plan houses also hate carpet and love high ceilings. Meaning you get the plate reverb effect on everything you do. How living in a place like

My big problem with Krita is just the plugins. Photoshop aggregated plugins to export to a ton of incidental file formats, and the plugins were all platform agnostic. Krita however, there's no way of telling if you can export to a give

There is something to being wary of rounding up. For example when you get food from a drive-through or buy groceries and they ask you to round up to the nearest dollar, with the rest of the exchange going towards a charitable cause. They do

A building is nothing more than a shell for the most part. It's all the parts that attach inside it that make it specialized. Those extraneous city halls could easily be repurposed, as their layouts share many of the aspects of busines

When you go across a long enough timeline variations occur. Nothing over time in human history is a constant linear improvement. We may be better off than we were in 1924 in terms of health and safety, but we're definitely not better o

There are actually quite a few reasons why sedans stuck around. One is separation of the passenger cabin from the cargo area. More than once I've accidentally bonked someone in the head putting something in the hatch or have had a dog

They're spinning Mustang off into a sub-brand, like Chrysler did for Imperial. We're set to get a Mustang "offroader" sometime in 2027, and there's rumblings of a mid-size CUV to slot below the full-size Mach-E. Mar

This is true to a ridiculous extent. Ford has no compact hatchback or sedan in the U.S., only the Brazilian built EcoSport. They killed all their cars in favour of CUVs and SUVs. Chevrolet no longer has the Sonic, having nixed those in 2022
