[Slaps the newly exposed dirt] "It's free real estate!"
Brilliant lighting - changes the mood entirely from the typical day pic.
It’s like rain on your wedding day.
I married my wife because she was the first person to teach me to laugh at myself.
I thought they already announced they would be targeting their infotainment as a subscription based service.

Given what we now know about some of the justices…
Given what we know about the justices, I predict a couple of fabulous vacations in their near future.
My issue is that it's an inefficient use of human resources because it clutters the interface. If you're looking for the answer to a question, you have to post in multiple places and/or search/review multiple communities to see if the question has already been answered. For low-traffic communities the replies get split, suppressing topic participation. For high traffic communities, stories/links that get posted to the "same" community on multiple instances clog up personal home pages and - in the case of large participation - clog up the top feed.
Again, imho, there should be a way for communities to aggregate or sync across instances and be shown as a single feed, like a symlink to multiple folders that is treated as a single location for end users. I realize this causes moderation concerns. I still think its better for the participants.
Oh no, a new discussion board is neither as robust nor as polished as one with over a decade of use and revision.
Most of the complaints are just whining that Lemmy isn't a perfect drop-in replacement for his love of endless, constant time wasting on Reddit. OTOH, the issue of multiple, nominally identical communities on Lemmy is a true weakness of the platform (imho, of course).
Many years ago I switched from iOS to Android specifically because android allowed you to circumvent carrier restrictions on hotspot functionality (at least unofficially). I guess Ajit Pai has bent the knee to telecoms now.
- you can’t drive the stock market to work
- don’t buy an average car, by the one someone bought ten years ago for $5500.
By your logic we should value her time at her billable rate. At a reasonable (downright inexpensive) hourly rate of $50/hr and 11.000 miles at an average of 10mph vs 30mph in a car (including stoplights), she’s lost 700 hours or $35,000 just in lost time. Were she a consultant selling her time in the open market she could have bought your average car, invested the $7k at 8% and simply used the growth/earnings to pay for gasoline and maintenance on the vehicle. And she’s still have $7k in the bank and a car worth $5.5k in ten years.
Of course that’s a silly way to look at it. But so is assuming we all have $28k just lying around to invest in the stock market. Things would be better if we all biked most places, but trying to justify it with MBA logic is a fools errand.
I like my vehicles like I like my software - buy once for the features that exist now; upgrade when there is a compelling reason to do so. This rent-seeking subscription bullshit is crap.
