lol welp. Time for this embarrassment to start.

Indeed! It would help a lot.

I think they’re missing the point of noisy cars / motorcycles.

Sure, there are the minority who have noisy vehicles.

But the real culprit are the tires.

Tell me, when you walk by a highway or a road, what do you hear? That sound that is vaguely like an ocean lapping against the shores, just louder and artificial and annoying right?

You never really hear the engine, even at a short distance away.

The tires make a LOT more noise than the engines and exhaust do! And it carries farther than an engine does.

Tired need more regulation, and roads need to be built with quieter materials.

This is something I wish could come back. Ultima was a great series, and I even liked the trash heaps that were Ultima 8 and 9.

Unfortunately, EA still holds the rights. The new mmo-ish game that Garriet made is one I have not really dived into yet

I mean, kinda?

The comment about remote workers is nothing new; think of the effects this has had in the past 20 years alone.

Businesses are just now starting to understand that hiring people from overseas is not necessarily the best move. Better to hire in your time zone where it’s easy to communicate, than it is to rely on a constant stream of email messages.

And yet, this still tends to be a problem. One of my jobs has that issue of communication, and it’s basically made me shift from programming to managing the boss and the project.

So… no easy answers to any of this.

Far Cry Six anyone?

I mean, then you’re gonna have dunces who try to run electricity through salt water. Which created a very bad gas that humans cannot breathe.

The issue is you’re going to need distilled water in order to create hydrogen particles.

Shit I would be on that in a heartbeat. But it can’t be free in todays world. Pay to play, so to speak, and I would happily pay a hundred a year to do so

I’d be depressed too if I had to work there

"AI" now is the machine learning of yesterday, and everyone was talkign about that for years. It's been solving problems for years. It's just that now we have ChatGPT, which makes it easier for execs to understand. Unfortunately this also brings up unrealistic expectations.

I don’t get the point of this article other than “buy cheap phones”.

I’ve bought cheap phones before. My first was a Samsung galaxy. I think it cost about 400usd at the time. Can’t remember. It was ok.

Lasted me for about 2 years before I got an htc phone for about 200usd. The Samsung shattered, so I needed a new one. Decided to go cheap because, why spend the money on glass?

Turns out that HTC is as sooooo bad. Could barely type a sentence. Reception was bad, and it was slow just to use Line app.

Ended up getting a iPhone 6s.

I’m typing this comment now on that very same 6s. My wife is using my iPhone 12 since hers broke.

Conclusion? Buy an expensive phone (within reason) and use it for five years. Or longer.

Too bad androids don’t receive security updates past two or three years.

lol what? Seriously? Where is all that gold gonna come from? How are they going to back it?

When 1 TexanGoldUnit eventualy devalues to 1000 TGU, does that mean my gold becomes dust too?

I'm a mostly frontend dev with 6 YOE that also has a bit of backend experience. I'm trying to make a move into more data heavy stuff, so that I can do some more data visualization.

Love cycling and all things related to cycling. THrowing my CV in the mix, why not?

FYI, there aren't any openings on your website. Personally, I'll shoot you an email

When you make an expansion called "Plane Wash simulator" where you're cleaning all the little nooks and crannies in -10 degree weather, call me.

I'll be happy to relive my nightmares in the military XD

Temple University is one of the worst universities to go to. They have one in Japan, and the locals _know_ its a terrible university, yet people still got o it for some reason.

No idea how they're still around. Good marketing I guess?

By the way, I tried to make a login for trunk.io, but I'm stuck at the "Create an organization" screen. No matter what I type, it says it is unable to create it.

Looks challenging. I'm gonna try and apply :)

Your company looks like it has an excellent mission.

For those wondering, I applied and got a reply from Mike, so they are receiving them.

This looks like a good opportunity actually. I'm applying.

I think it's great you're developing an open-source chat-hub. Maybe it'll replace Slack someday ;) Good luck!

You must be young.

I would much rather own the software, books, and music I buy in a hard copy form than a "digital" form that can be removed without my consent.

I've _very_ tired of it. If I do develop an app, it'll be a one-item purchase.

Hell, subscription model is making its way into CARS. It's so stupid. Mercedes is doing that... 1200 USD a year to "unlock" power. I mean, for fuck sake. You're spending a hundred grand on a luxury car and you still need to pay?

Honestly, I feel like the forum alone is enough social media for me.

It was literally two pipes strapped to what looks like a block of wood.

I'm curious if the vehicles also use an INS system ties to an IGS.

Eh. Somehow I doubt that eating charred food or fast-cooked pepperoni is going to kill me faster

Thanks. I'll take a look!
