I've never been rear ended but then I bought my G37 and it was suddenly happening on a yearly basis. In the span of one year, I had a truck back into it when it was parked in our parking lot, got rear ended in traffic, then had a car reverse into me at a stop sign (driver pulled forward to make a turn but decided they couldn't make it so threw it in reverse and gunned it). I may have been rear ended a second time that year but it's hard to keep track of how many people drove into this car. After a while I quit making claims because that was a pain in the ass, bumpers look like I use it to nudge cars around a junkyard.

Edit: and the thing that makes the frequency really wild is that I used it mainly to commute ~2 miles to work, so I was in that thing less than 30 minutes a day

Advisors in meeting: "We have a clear path to 270 as long as they focus on single issue voters who care most ab-"

Trump interrupts everyone to talk about how boring this meeting is, invites everyone to order McDonald's with him.

JD rubs chin pensively, thinking about a single issue to focus on, something easy which does not involve walking into a donut shop

JD has a really weird fixation on cats. Cat ladies, grilling cats, cats cats cats. Has JD ever bummed a cat? We'll never know but it makes me wonder

The day of a new patch in WoW I said in general chat "wow, they finally put a confirmation when you type /gquit , crazy how long it took" and sit in town and watch peoples guild names disappear

Be me, have a circadian rhythm disorder, pop some gummies and trazodone and play Switch in bed until brain shuts off, spend 10 nights wandering around Gnoll Stronghold in Baldur's Gate 1 trying to help Minsc find Dynaheir before I crash. Wander around everywhere multiple times, wtf, did she die of boredom? Finally decide to turn screen brightness up. She right there. Gnolls quit spawning, placed on endangered species list

Elon Musk's mind: "I'm so busy and devoted to my goals that I fall asleep on factory floors and office couches"

Everyone else: No, you have acquired narcolepsy from spending 16 hours a day shitposting

You'd have to determine when the camera turns on in order to determine when it shuts off. If it's 30 on 10 off, you stay still for >40 seconds to ensure the camera is idle and ready to record, and then you spin, you can ensure camera turns on at your spinning, and then you know it'll shut off on your 30 seconds, and you're totally synced to the 40s cycle

Looks awesome!

The problem isn't scarcity in resources or lack of available work, the problem is that everything is zero sum and resources wind up locked out because there are a couple hundred assholes that look at numbers on a screen like it's the only thing that validates their existence.

People are starving and can't buy houses because people like Bezos or whoever have 20,000 million dollars they'll never use sitting in some bank account they forgot about, but they need more, so they disenfranchise the class that brings them wealth.

Less jobs = better margins, but that all rests on the assumption that people absolutely must work full time and for the lowest bid

We all may as well grab shovels and bury the wealth of the Earth in a big hole in the ground because that's what happens when we inflate the worth of the wealthy. Resources just vanish into the ether

Hold up, so I can just stand still in a room for >30 seconds to sync the timing, then spin in a circle for 32 seconds, then sprint right up to the camera and rip it off the wall?

The guides, basically a quick and dirty walkthrough on setting it up, hopefully a few explanations about things, and a handful of common troubleshooting tips. Also pointers to a handful of communities that have helpful info in case something obscure pops up.

Basically, teach a man how to fish, as opposed to giving him a couple.

I think a lot of people who would otherwise dabble with a DIY home server never try because it's pretty technical (beyond typical 'build a pc' stuff) so I think the education that would come with the hardware would be appreciated by many. Help them get their foot in the door by making the dive a little less scary. Nothing too over the top but point them to the places where people hang out discussing the more technical crap for when that day comes

when my wife, mom and dad ask about what I want for a party

Tell them what you want for your birthday, even if it's 'something quiet and small' or anything along those lines, give them time to respect your wishes. I went on a nature walk with my wife for my 40th, blew the minds of my super-extroverted in-laws, but hey, that's me, who I am.

When people start assuming you'd want something even though you don't, might make you feel obligated to do that something, might make you feel weird for not wanting to, but you're you and they might be having a hard time wrapping their head around it (might ask you 'really' multiple times), but do you and they'll respect it

It's wild to think that drones are so wildly effective that fear and terror can be inflicted by blasting a youtube video of someone flying a drone through car speakers

The cops would have got this guy tho. He had a warrant for failing to register, probably after a move. It's not like they weren't looking for him but trying to find someone in any decently-sized town without knowing their residence is a total needle in haystack. Sit around and wait until some license plate lands a hit or until someone calls it in. If she tipped off the police instead of extrajudicially dismembering him it'd have been a better outcome for everyone

Edit: yall can downvote me all you want, but he committed a crime 25 years ago, went through the criminal justice system, did not reoffend for 25 years. Think long and hard about what kind of human being would cheer for something like this.

I'm probably an ideal candidate for something like this but I'd much rather have someone walk me through setting my own thing up, rather than them handing me a bunch of preconfigured stuff that leaves me just as clueless.

If it came bundled around a bunch of DIY guides explaining the hows and the whys, it'd be far more appealling

If you're gonna get shot by something that can penetrate your armor you'd rather not want armor because it'll probably ricochet than exit out the back and when you take it off all your guts fall out. FMJ winds up mushrooming out like a hollow point. You're ever so slightly more fucked. 416 Barrett is like your ring finger, now clench it into a ball and imagine that thing making a 2nd or 3rd pass inside you

The same people who would recommend this are the same exact people who are clutching pearls at other people coming in and taking their jobs, and also the same exact people who are least likely to have immigrants take their jobs. What do they actually want? Nobody fucking knows, not even them

Better yet do some low speed low elevation bullshit in their airspace in desolate bumfuck nowheresville and let the locals relay it. Who did that? Nobody really knows

I went foot only for a year in Minneapolis, and before that I went bike-only for a year, and if I were in your shoes and had a bike and could use a bike I would get a Burley in a heartbeat. You could haul 2 cat carriers behind you and possibly a third on a rear rack if you were so inclined, and groceries would be no issue. It's half a car trunk and doesn't really affect the balance of the bike

Such a boring unremarkable PCB. May as well be a TP-Link 2.4GHz PCI network adapter from 2006

Edit: if you look at the teeth it's offcenter from the resin, if I was blowing that money I'd expect it to be parallel. Shoddy workmanship

Double edit: I mean, it's pretty cool for a 200 dollar Etsy thing but for a luxury priced item whoever made this is delusional
