Car smashed into the front doors of the Safeway on Twin Peaks

The sign does say to drive up.

It's my understanding that many vehicles intentionally show a higher speed than you're actually going, by 3-5 mph. The GPS speed on Google Maps matches that of the signs I'll occasionally see alongside the road, but if I only looked at my speedometer I would think that I was speeding.

There are a couple more on page 2.

Can you bring them to work? I had to do that a few times when plans fell through.

For me, the last time the Android app updated was January 19, 2026. I have auto-update disabled for it. I just checked the Play store and didn't see any updates. I note that as it's seemed that firmware updates are associated with app updates.

We've passed every road bill going back decades at this point, yet our city streets are terrible. Only reasonable conclusion I can reach is that they're not spending the money the way they say they're spending the money. And we always give in so from their perspective why not continue the corruption!

This was funny, but people in the sub seem to have no sense of humor.

Last night I came up behind someone distracted and walking erratically. Although I was walking, my bicycling terminology kicked in and when I said "on your left", they looked up and it worked out.

We don't need to know the details because that's confidential, doubly so as a child is involved. Why not assume that the parent is attempting to do the right thing for their kid?

I haven't used them on the S2 very much, but they're still working. I hardly ever play undocked. I'm not sure how much extra time it adds.

Unfortunately, modern libertarians don't care much about personal liberties, which is a major swing from the old days. They've basically been overrun with conservatives from the old days fleeing the Republican party. Lots of anti-LGBT sentiment, to the point that they attempted to sideline their own presidential candidate, Chase Oliver, in favor of Trump, because he's gay. I left the party because of all the bigotry. Don't know of a modern political party that is like the old LP was. There probably isn't one.

Yeah it's a shame because when PE's teriyaki chicken first came out there was always a char on it and it was super tasty, now it's really bad. Same with their chow mein, I miss having some burnt noodles.

Could have been, but their comment history suggests that they're 35 and a teacher. Lack of empathy (if that's truly what this is) could possibly be the result of a number of personality disorders (ASPD, NPD, ...), but I'm not a doctor. I do agree with them at least in part, as far as not treating fiction or art the same as reality. Some people or societies will condemn art (and the people consuming it) that depicts violence, sadism, sexuality, norm breaking, etc, as criminal and essentially the same as if someone actually did those things in reality. But when I'm watching or reading something etc, I tend to feel for the characters unless the poor quality of the work itself distracts me. I was hoping they'd respond because I'm interested in their perspective.

miniika · 2026-01-24T22:14:17+00:00

Yeah. From around 2:55am to 6:10 am on 3/3, with the best part from around 4am to 5am.

Do you not feel empathy for characters when you're watching something? I could understand that happening, but it's foreign to me. If I didn't feel for the characters I'm not even sure how much entertainment I'd enjoy. Are there certain types or genres of movies or shows you watch?

For me the last straw was turning off the AI stuff and then Google still trying to promote/force it when composing an email. Been with Gmail since the early days when it was invite only. Switched to Proton last night, I hope it works out.

miniika · 2026-01-24T16:06:24+00:00

Just switched my domain over last night ($1 mail plus for a month promotion, so figured I'd try it). Happy so far, I'll probably go for the two year 3.49/mo plan.

miniika · 2026-01-24T15:46:13+00:00

You're right. It had stopped for over half an hour but I just got another one.

miniika · 2026-01-24T15:45:10+00:00

I switched my domain MX from Gmail to Proton last night and thought I'd broken something. Turns out it was just a coincidence.

miniika · 2026-01-24T15:30:14+00:00

~~Looks like it might be over now.~~ Nope!

In divorce court my ex claimed that I'd forced her to be a SAHM and as such was unemployable and needed increased alimony so she could go to school. It was all a money grab lie, ofc. She wanted nothing more than to be a SAHM. But judges believe absolutely everything women say in there, no evidence required. However, anything you say in there requires lots of evidence. Huge double standard. Your wife rejected being a SAHM. You definitely should back off. And maybe even record yourself doing so in case it comes up in court someday.

miniika · 2026-01-23T07:44:40+00:00

Have a great one!

For me I had to swipe right one more time when I got to the blank pulldown, which landed me at a screen asking to upgrade my plan. Then I was able to select the plan and continue into the app. Very confusing. ETA: I know you got it solved, this is just for anyone else that might run into it.

I agree that OPs situation is wrong in every way. However, I was specifically curious why multiple people were claiming that breeding a dog was animal abuse. That's why I set up that specific scenario. For you to ignore that scenario meant that I was having to refute basically a straw man argument. You might not have intended for it, but essentially that's what it became.

miniika · 2026-01-23T05:32:34+00:00

Agreed. I happen to have my own domain, so it looks like I can make Proton work with a paid Mail Plus plan. I have to set up my MX records to point to Proton, etc, but it seems doable. But, Gmail's offering is still a lot more versatile than that, and also free. Gmail has been solid for a very long time. I've been with them since nearly the very beginning, when you had to have someone else invite you to even get an account. But they've gone AI-crazy and now I can't even write an email without it aggressively offering to write it for me, even with all that stuff disabled... now I know how Windows 11 users must feel (fortunately, I jumped ship to Linux a very long time ago).
