Just a comment to say I'm sorry hearing about this struggle, and you're doing the right thing. Unfortunately, loving somebody and being in a relationship with them are two separate things, and one is simply not enough to make the other work.

But Americans love traffic congestion, lord knows why. Let them have more of it! /s

Whatever farm animals of war...

On the command line, virsh lets you destroy VMs.

Also, being on fire. The way they pushed, "stop, drop, and roll" so hard, I presumed that being on fire was a routine part of life.

Based on the track record, I hope that Iran can do a better job with the reflecting pool.

Here's a tip: If you don't tell anybody that you have no friends, they won't know. Perhaps it's not the part about not wanting to have friends that makes people suspicious, but rather the need to constantly tell other people about it?

On the contrary, everybody hates cars. I've never met a driver who doesn't hate cars. Fuckcars is just the concentrated form.

The CityNerd video about Disneyland is pretty on-point about Autopia: In an otherwise compact, walkable park, that attraction takes up an inordinate amount of space, and often has long queues, because it's so space-inefficient. Only a handful of people can get in at a time.

It's, like, the perfect demonstration of driving, in miniature.

Tried that. Didn't get the job. 😔

It's kinda lucky that she was also into humans, and not exclusively furry.

Indeed, but the theory of advertising is not to get you to buy a product that you weren't otherwise going to. The point is that, if at some point in the future you needed to buy tampons, and were standing in the store, wondering which ones to get, well, the advertised brand would stand out as familiar and safe, even if you've long forgot the ad. Across a huge population, every day a few people are buying hygiene products for the first time, and the company wants their product to be the one those people choose.

Yeah, but at least it has the OG Zealand.

Uhm, ackshually, the motherboard is fiberglass, a.k.a. GRP, with copper traces imprinted on it.

Oh! Too cheeky for me. 😜

UNLIMITED POWER!

No.

George W. Bush stood alongside Obama at the opening of the latter's Presidential library instead of swinging from the gallows back in '08, which is what needed to happen if we were to save America.

Instead, we're fucked. The Dems ain't listening.

Good. Fuck 'em.

Based on the number of men I've encountered who say, I was circumcised and I'm fine so you're lying about it not being fine for you, there are indeed a lot of fuckwits in the world.

Yes, among the quiter vehicles that go by are the city buses. I think they must have run-quiet tires. It's an almost-pleasant whoosh they make, even at 3AM. The other quiet vehicles are owned by drivers who follow the speed limit, and even ICE vehicles make almost no noise at 20-25MPH.

EVs might be quiet intrinsically, but so many of them make that obnoxious UFO noise when accelerating.
