Isn't air resistance friction?

I wish it was hypothetical. Two slightly awkward conversations prompted this.

Touché...is also the name of a fetish community.

Anytime I mention it to people IRL they look uncomfortable before I explain it's the federated universe of distributed social platforms.

That moment of 😬 is due to the name Fediverse sounding like 'Fetiverse.' These people aren't sex obsessed. Most are tech professionals who were on Fark, SA, Digg...etc.

How do y'all navigate this homonymous quirk?

Blueiris and some hikvision cameras. It's not fancy, but it's pretty straightforward to get running. I'm not super concerned with alerting and just run continuous recording looping after a few days.

That's actually just the first part of the phrase. The whole thing is "je ne suis pas français, chappeau"

edit: Ok this was supposed to be a joke about mansplaining something you know nothing about, but we fell into Poe's law.

Nope. In the US we have a system enshrined in state laws that cemented a layer of middlemen between auto manufacturers and consumers. These middlemen are called dealerships. They typically run showrooms, sales, and service for one manufacturer and hold a stock of vehicles on site.

These guys made so much money fucking consumers over they're universally distrusted. "Car salesman" is a dirty profession in the US. Because they don't really add value to the process and had a ton of money, they lobbied aggressively to protect their fiefdoms to state governments and successfully made it illegal in many states for a manufacturer to sell directly to consumers.

Awful system. I hate buying a car because of it and go to extraordinary lengths to lie and cheat their system when engaging with them, as they're doing the same by default.
