Hey how come the truck automatically locks when it explodes and bursts into flames
hey how come elon musk can remotely unlock any tesla vehicle
He ly how come elon musk has access to security footage of you charging your car
do not, under any circumstances, buy a fucking tesla
“Mr. Musk! Our cars explode!”
“Make the doors lock when they do.”
“Wh-why, I’m- I’m sorry to ask but why?”
“Whoever has the money to buy a Tesla has the money to get the lawyers to throw at our throats. If the car explodes, it must take the driver with it and as many people around it with it. Add more C4.”
You wrote about murder?? Murder is illegal?? You wrote about this dude killing someone and you didn’t even say ‘murder is bad’ at the start of the book, wht wtf, wtf is wrong with you? I can’t believe you condone murder, I can’t believe you’re pro murber, oh my fucking God don'ttalk to me when ou literally kill people, freak. I’m calling the cops, what the fuck, I’m shaking and crying.
Okay so I got Rednote because I heard about the whole migration thing and I never bothered to sign up before, and the cultural exchange has just been really fascinating
the world is running out of glassblowers and yet you want to become a fucking doctor
One of the most jarring moments of my university education was in a physics class when I was given a device that measures gravity and was told “this cost the university sixteen thousand dollars, but the only glass blower in the world who could make the glass springs inside it died so it’s literally irreplaceable. If you drop it those springs will shatter. Go fuck around with it for a day and take some measurements”
And there’s probably some neurodivergent person in the local community who could fix it, but because we don’t have UBI, she’s stuck away in an office somewhere trying to get through her day without losing her goddamned mind because she needs to pay the rent and have health insurance to pay for her hrt
cats being capable of understanding accidents and even giving you a little head bonk to let you know you’re still cool makes it infinitely funnier that they don’t understand when you’re trying to help them
cats when you step on their tail: i’ll admit that was rather ouchie, but given the lifetime of goodwill and trust between us, one must conclude this booboo is but a fluke.
cats when you try to get their claws unstuck from the couch covering: this nefarious bitch has never had a single honorable intention in their dishonest and shameful life, this must be one of their sinister plots or perhaps even an attempt on my life,
The thing about Trump is that every article written about how bizarre and unpredictable and anomalous he is was written because the author couldn’t face the uncomfortable truth that Trump is both entirely predictable and also really not all that notable. He’s a product of a deeply sick culture but if you’ve literally ever once paid attention to mainstream American culture and class structure you know exactly why he is the way he is. He is as always simply America’s raging superego
Don’t let Chrome’s big redesign distract you from the fact that Chrome’s invasive new ad platform, ridiculously branded the “Privacy Sandbox,” is also getting a widespread rollout in Chrome today. If you haven’t been following this, this feature will track the web pages you visit and generate a list of advertising topics that it will share with web pages whenever they ask, and it’s built directly into the Chrome browser. It’s been in the news previously as “FLoC” and then the “Topics API,” and despite widespread opposition from just about every non-advertiser in the world, Google owns Chrome and is one of the world’s biggest advertising companies, so this is being railroaded into the production builds.
This is a response to the laws that eliminate or severely limit third party tracking cookies. Since Google makes so much money on advertising, it had to figure out other ways to get your data. It’s already been tracking people who use the web while logged into Google, but now they’re baking it into Chrome.
As someone who works in advertising, the reason I new use Firefox is because I heard the industry rumblings about this for the last 3 years. It’s finally here, so if you care about making it harder to be tracked/advertised to, switch to Firefox.
Tiger found caged in abandoned home gets second chance at wildlife sanctuary: ‘He seems to be so happy’
The estimated 350-pound tiger was transported to the facility, an affiliate of the Humane Society of the United States, on Wednesday afternoon, and is settling in well, Almrud said. There, he will have the chance to roam in enclosures of up to three acres.
Almrud, who estimates him to be about 2 years old, described the moment he first walked onto the grass at the sanctuary as remarkable.
“It was just amazing to see him walk out on grass and to see him explore and have that freedom of movement,” she said. “It was just such a reward and fulfilling to us.”
Now, he spends his days rolling around the grass in glee, Almrud said.
“He comes right up to the fence every time a staff member is present,” she said. “He seems very amenable to our presence.”
The tiger is eating well – a combination of chicken, humanely raised non-processed beef and whole prey complete with organs and bones. It appears that he was being fed chicken, which is what owners of exotic cats often feed them, but chicken alone does not provide the complete nutrition they need to thrive, Almrud said.
In addition, caregivers are tasked with keeping the tiger mentally stimulated by creating “pretend hunting” games and rotating him through different areas so he has access to new smells and environments to explore.
“He seems to happy and content,” Almrud said. “Our staff is just falling in love with him.”
Just an update! Since I got curious and the og post is from 2019.
His name is Loki now! In June he celebrated his 7th birthday at the sanctuary where he lives and thrives. Here’s a few pics of the boy:
Who’s this fuzzy potato? It’s the hairy-tailed mole (Parascalops breweri)! Found in parts of eastern North America, this burrowing mammal creates tunnels that can extend up to 78 ft (24 m) long. Though it typically weighs only 2.2 oz (62.8 g), this critter’s powerful forelimbs can generate force more than 30 times its body mass, allowing it to slide through the soil with ease. Its diet includes worms, insects, and snails.
The reform would mean citizens from the blacklisted counties will be forced to comply with complicated British rules if they move to the UK and gender-recognition certificates (GRC) obtained may not be recognised in this country.
If this goes into effect, this policy would target primarily immigrants.
Parents don’t get to decide if they were “really good” parents. I know that’s harsh and there’s a lot of mommy positivity circles online that just give each other a positive feedback loop but you don’t decide if you were a “really great parent” to your child. Your children tell you if you were a good parent or not. I see this a lot of no contact parent circles where the person who is no contact with their children is like “well I was a GREAT parent so it isn’t my fault and I didn’t do anything wrong”. Normal parents wonder if they’re doing a good job, ask themselves how they can improve, are open to feedback from children and other parents. If you are 100% sure you were a faultless fantastic selfless awesome fantastic parent totally beyond reproach and your shitty ungrateful willful delinquent children just don’t appreciate you enough, you are a terrible parent.
Sometimes parents end up hurting their children without even intending to hurt them. What kind of response that brings about is up to the child, not the parent. Never forget that children are not the possessions of the parents, they are whole entire people, who have their own rights to determine what kind of relationship they will eventually have with their parent, based on their own independently valid experiences.
Remember that you are a primate, and one of the basic primate threat responses is to go absolutely bugfuck and hope that whatever’s after you decides you’re not worth the risk. Charging directly toward the problem waving your arms wildly in the air and shrieking like a gibbon is always valid.
Hey, @compiler-specific, I mean, Lain Iwakura, why would these bad actors use that IP address if it can be identified as unsafe? Wouldn’t it make more sense to use one of the normal schemas you described for normal IP addresses?
Yes, Definitely! But many bad actors are lazy or incompetent, and might not think to change the default - perhaps a script kiddy who only skimmed the documentation. If your local IP address is under 172.16.42.*, then it is pretty likely that you’re connected to a WiFi Pineapple - but even if that isn’t the case, it certainly doesn’t mean you’re not on a compromised network, particularly if you’re on free public wifi such as might be found at a hotel/cafe/etc.
I think it’s interesting that people have interpreted my post as a cybersecurity PSA. I’m glad that people are now more aware of the risks posed by connecting to public wifi networks. But that was entirely unintentional. My entire thought process when I made this post was that I saw someone post the Joey meme in a Discord server, it got a bunch of reactions indicating confusion, and I thought, “Hey, wouldn’t it be funny if I put that with a meme that’s like the ‘Peter Griffin explains the joke’ format, but with Lain instead of Peter Griffin?”
looney toons bit where a guy who plays too much Minecraft needs to escape a chase by going over the edge of a cliff. so he dumps an ACME bucket of water and jumps into the water, swimming the whole way down and landing safely. then the antagonist, perplexed, tries to do the same thing and just plummets to the bottom at normal speed and gets the huge bump on his head with the tweeting birds encircling him and he’s sopping wet.
