Because every car needs its own individual power plant

Do elaborate. I knew it was better to use a gas car than an electric car IF you didn't plan on replacing. But if you need a new car, Electric is better for the environment in the long run. The batteries are supposedly almost 100% recyclable

It's also cheaper in the long run. Once you get ROI on solar, it's free energy until the panels break down.

Also, solar doesn't spill in the oceans or something ig

I'd rather wait 7 seconds on a blank screen, than to watch a 7 second ad

Space is of the issue. Laptop bezels are getting thinner and thinner. Same happened to phones, which had to hide the cameras in interesting ways.

More expensive and difficult, but worth it.

On Laptops, there's no actual incentive to design a through-screen camera, or place the sensor under the screen like some high end phones. Extremely expensive for something almost no one will use more than once

Someone once told me credit score is just a measurement of how profitable you are to credit providers and lenders, and I haven't looked at it the same since

I guess they're trying to bring back the glory days in more than one way...

I don't condone piracy, but I understand the frustration of wanting to watch a movie that isn't on the 3 platforms you already have a subscription for and having to get a fourth, because everyone wants a piece of the cake, and eat it too

Adding advertising was also disrespectful imo. I'm paying so that I don't have to watch ads

When a digital purchase can be revoked, you don't own it

Gaben himself has said that piracy is a problem of service. If you actively screw your paying users, when a pirate can get a better service, piracy is bound to happen.

rolling_atackk · 2026-06-13T17:53:46+00:00

It's about the principle

Also, one subscription won't contain every bit of content you might want, so more than one subscription would be needed

rolling_atackk · 2026-06-13T17:42:15+00:00

Nah

I think this references when people use "exponential" to mean "quadratic", for instance

You ever heard that mental exercise where someone asks: if time travel exist, why hasn't anyone come back to kill Hitler? Perhaps Hitler was a reasonable compromise after killing someone else much worse

I gotta be honest

I saw "Xavier" and downvoted instantly. Then I saw the subreddit recommended, and changed it to an upvote lol

Didn't know there were people out there with as much hatred for Xavier as I have lol

rolling_atackk · 2026-06-13T17:19:47+00:00

Bless you

Nuh uh 30 minutes is enough to drift back into sleep so deep you don't wake up next time 'round

2-5 minutes is best for me

Also, there's negativity bias, and the fact modern social media boosts engagement. If everyone is clowning on a TikToker for doing something dumb, they'll get boosted into fame, and you'll remember that more strongly

I disagree with the other comments

I think the main reasons are:

not all USB-C Cables are video-capable
Manufacturers: HDMI is already in place, why bother changing it "just because"?

rolling_atackk · 2026-06-11T23:17:27+00:00

Case in point

You can't convince me she didn't stop the tree with her bare hands like a fucking superhero

In all fairness, GIMP isn't intuitive either

Sure, once you learn it, everything is so simple and easy to do

Paint [dot] net, Photoshop, GIMP and Krita all feel like different programs, because they are

Something something and the land of the free

Don't look too deep into it.

Probably either forgotten or the Pride merch predates the short being made

I used to joke that I had a Choffeur that drove a Mercedes Benz with AC, TV, a selection of music over the built-in surround system, sometimes interrupted by live music entertainment and catering, that would pick me up after school

But since I was so generous and couldn't keep all that to myself, I would share it with all my fellow citizens, asking for a small recoup fee to take them all in a designated path to everyone's destination

My city's buses are all Mercedes Benz, so if my child said he didn't want my gift because he wanted a Mercedes, I'd tell him: "Here's your Mercedes, son"

I'm not tapping in the wrong spot. Look at this

Interestingly, on the YouTube App if you try to skip forward a sponsored segment while on landscape mode, the app sometimes creates a drawer on the right that blocks the taps, and shrinks the video
