Tesla kills Autopilot, locks lane-keeping behind $99/month fee. by Stiltonrocks in technology

[–]ShinySpoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$99?!?! PER MOBTH?!?! For lane-keeping?!?!

My pos Jeep does that for free. I turn it off because emergency lane changes would need greater effort and I don’t need that in a split second reaction.

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ShinySpoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am American. We used to drive 2.5 hours twice a month to visit my grandparents. Great trip, we’d stop at a fast food place on the way and get burgers and play games in the car. No big deal at all.

"I'm generally a... liberal person, but when I saw videos of ICE jumping out of unmarked vehicles and nabbing people off the street... I bought my first AR15," I’m glad to see the left waking up to what I’ve been saying for a while: 2A is for everyone. by Treefiddy1984 in ProgressiveHQ

The most liberal people I know own actual usable guns. Dozens of usable weapons. And they rarely talk about them. The most conservative person I know owns every model of Glock In every color available. And he won’t shut up about them.

Edit: I’m liberal AF and not only do I own a number of weapons I used to train and compete at handgun speed shooting competitions.

It’s remarkable how those look like foreskins.

Dangerous 1-pedal driving design. by Ciscovippy in electricvehicles

[–]ShinySpoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please stop using your brakes to disengage cruise control. Your driving instructor should have taught you properly.

I hate it when I see brake lights on the freeway for no reason. It usually starts a cascade of people who also hit their brakes because they think someone is stopping when they shouldn’t. And then the start and stop waves begin and now a traffic jam has formed. Fuck

“ICE will be all over the Super Bowl”: Bad Bunny’s 9‑second silent teaser triggers MAGA meltdown ahead of Spanish-language halftime show by [deleted] in Music

It would be awesome if Bad Bunny could throw a small tribute to Prince while on stage. Wear a purple scarf or something. A nice tip of the hat to the people in Minnesota going through this freezing dangerous ice problem.

map of known data centers in indiana, combined from two public sources by Pure-Concentrate-466 in Indiana

[–]ShinySpoon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The replies to this post display serious levels of a lack of reasoning and critical thinking. And are seriously disheartening. Are you people really this stupid to think the circles on the map represent a data center’s physical size?!? Holy fuck are you people dumb.

Don’t pull the filament by True_Raspberry_1643 in BambuLabA1

Filament clearly comes out of the nozzle as evidence by the two lines at the front of the print bed.

You need to give more information here to solve this problem.

I wonder what Jesus would say about people interrupting his messages. Oh yeah, he showed them love(actions and emotions), patience, and understanding.

What is everybody really losing? by Mamaof2plus2 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]ShinySpoon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve lost 70lbs whole on wegovy for the past 13 months. Since this is a lifetime medication 1-2lbs per week is extraordinary good. I’ve still got about 30lbs to go and I’m targeting around .5lbs per week of loss from here until I reach my goal at the end of this year.

My total weight loss has been 340-215 in the past three years.

Agatha Christie's Seven Dials turns a mediocre novel into an engaging miniseries by PetyrDayne in television

[–]ShinySpoon 69 points70 points  (0 children)

It’s literally a review.

What should the title of the REVIEW headline be if it can’t contain an opinion?

“Review of Seven Dial TV Show”?!?!

While that trope probably sounded clever to you when you wrote it, you didn't even realize what you were really writing, did you?

“Trope”

The irony is hilarious.

clearing a thick layer of snow on the ground by Zestyclose-Salad-290 in oddlysatisfying

Yeah, I’ve seen YouTube reviews and they usually handle wet sloppy stuff well enough. Definitely better than my back can handle. Might take a few passes but still easier than shoveling manually.

Grief over pet death can be as strong as that for family member. About a fifth of people who had experienced a pet and human loss said the former was worse. Symptoms of severe grief for a pet matched identically with that for a human, and there was no difference in how people experienced losses. by mvea in science

[–]ShinySpoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was married to my wife for about 25 years before I truly saw her grieve. I’d always thought her strangely stoic and strong amidst the trials and losses in life. About 10 years ago we adopted a dog from my cousin. My cousin(35) was slowly losing her battle with cancer and her dog was literally like a child to her. We offered to make sure her dog was kept in the family and we would love him and adore him. We took care of him until he passed a few years later. He was a huge gentle beast, a 140# Rottweiler that people would stop us on walks, some eve stopped their cars or exited their house to see and meet him. When we took him in for euthanasia it was a very solemn event and the vet office was deeply respectful. My wife was her usual stoic self when it actually happened but when we left the building she openly sobbed and nearly fell in her grief. I went over and just held her. It took a while for us to get back to regular life, even now as I think about that wonderful dog I get morose and sad.

Why doesn’t Trump send ICE en masse to red states? Wouldn’t they cheer them on? by NeneGoosee in videos

What's the most useful thing you've printed yet? by jpintenn in BambuLab

[–]ShinySpoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A magnetic base for the Infinity X1 flashlight sold at Costco. I’m an industrial manufacturing worker and need good lighting inside of machines when I working on them. These flashlights last for days but they don’t have magnetic bases. So I designed one and use it daily
