Meanwhile, in diesels it should be called the diesel pedal because it directly results in the delivery of additional diesel

Honestly so glad the side of righteousness gets to keep pancakes

It's worse, they added... *shudders* cloud features. -__-

My image processing code is mysteriously failing with JPGs but perfectly happy with PNGs, and it's throwing an exception without any explanation of the error. BAH

Honestly it's a shame I can't turn "golf-themed chaos gremlin" into a career

Your Personal Automobile Does Not Exist In A Vacuum 4,000 word editorial coming to a non-existent car website near you

anyway I've abandoned all the Meta apps for now because i'd go in to view my friend's random postings and end up doomscrolling through genuinely distressing stuff and feeling awful and like fuck that for a tuesday i will miss my casual friends and acquaintences

i kinda miss when social media was whatever random cute stuff you and your friends were posting i still wanna see my friends random meals and adventures! i don't wanna see an endless stream of ragebait and traumatizing content!

me, discovering that you, a tiny person, have been sleeping in the warm spot behind my portable 5TB hard drive

Now this just makes me want to embroider scenes from Sim City

I pretty much assume anyone listening to modern Kanye is a Nazi at this point

There's an instructive episode of Adventure Time on this very topic. Jake spends piles of money making others do increasingly grotesque acts. Nothing particularly dangerous, but he pays them to do things they don't want to do. He comes to realize this behavior rots his soul.

Part of the problem is that there is very little money in simple, honest reporting anymore. Every article has to be a banger viral hit to keep some of these places open.

For whatever reason, I can't write fast anymore, and some days I can't even write without screaming and wanting to break things.

remember when people used to post cool stuff and their art on social media and now it's like the best performing content is "WEDDING GUEST PISSED ON MY DJ GEAR WHAT WOULD YOU DO?" forget anything cool it's just dopamine bullshit around the clock

"Uh, a weekday?"

This is now the second attempted terrorist attack on the LGBTQ community in a week as "revenge" for Charlie Kirk. This follows an attempted mass shooting of a gay bar in Arizona. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

I kind of want to find some silly country town that's very far away and execute a nonsense road trip there while purchasing many delicious sprinkle donuts and pies along the way

I wanna be as successful as Lou Wilson because I'd love to own a 2021 Honda Civic with a ridiculous wrap on it

This only happens to you once

I always thought when it was time for a mid career change of profession there would be professions left.

I know it seems like sitcoms never take risks, but it can be really disconcerting when they do. There's an entire episode of King of Queens where Doug's cheapskate behaviour ends up literally blinding Carrie. It's dark.

What are the best modern racing games with a satisfying career mode?

Anyone done the maths on how much literature the A-10 Warthog can deliver from the GAU-8/A at a firing rate of 3,900 rounds per minute?

how to explain to small child in landlocked city that a career in open water hydrofoil sailboat racing is unlikely

On my way to buy tomato chutney and a can of Mother.

Now that this has been said, nutjobs will be talking about this for the next 30 years, minimum

Pissing straight up in the air sometimes Saying ey oh Galileo

my Xbox 360 won't play Midnight Club 3 and the AI in Forza 4 sucks. i need a new dumb racing game to pass the hours

I dont even know what they're trying to achieve with this

If you run a cinem I am begging you to just have a page that shows me what movies you're playing TONIGHT

This was fun to write. Particularly because there isn't a lot out there that properly explains the mechanism at play.

I have this aching pain that I fumbled my greatest ideas and executed poorly years ago and now I will be destined to labor in misery for the next 20 years instead of doing cool shit and I'm hating it

I so desperately want to be that person with the perfect hair and it just isn't happening for me right now

playing video games like a 90s sitcom character tonight Sprawled sideways on the couch in an implausible position, barely paying attention to what's happening on screen, with no interest in the causality therein

just roasted the best potatoes of my life

AHHHHH! Melbourne, we're doing this tonight! Can you unlock the unlockable?

From Wired a few weeks ago. A lot of the people who I was told for years were the adults in the room are being asked how they want to be remembered, and that answer is very clearly "cowards." www.wired.com/story/uncann...

Question for published authors: Who decided how big your book was going to be? I'm talking page size, not length of prose—there are little books and big books and I wondered who gets to choose. Are there standard sizes? Was it your publisher's call? Or did you go "GIMME BIG BRAWNY BOOKO"

remember when that rock joined sesame street and it fucking ruined elmo’s life

INJECTING them?!

They keep on saying that the shooter is not cooperating with them but also that he was motivated by leftist ideologies. Sure sounds like he wont tell them what they want him to say.

creatives jobs that demand adobe compatibility but don't pay for Creative Cloud: thumbs down

Malcolm Tucker would not have let this happen

this is, hands down, the best video I've seen on men's influencer content and it's not close either

This is why I meet so many normies who are friends with obviously abusive, racist, or homophobic men "But they're nice! They're not bad!"
