So between cats when showing aggression they'll block other cats from approaching or passing. When you open the door for a cat and stand in front of the door they interrupt that as you don't want them to come in. Just step way to the side or walk into the room and they'll follow you in.

As an appliance repairman of 20 years this picture hits harder than you know.

Taylor is a very strange spelling of Napoleon.

But he is French... So...

mechoman444 ,

Every.

Single.

Time.

It's some kind of cosmic law.

All those anti gay asshats are as gay as everyone else.

I don't know why this exists but I'm happy it does.

He's your dude! You know exactly what he is!

I see Sony is going down the IBM route for AI. 40 years from now they'll be kicking themselves in the teeth.

I've used Twitter like twice in my life and only because Bungie absolutely insists on providing server updates when they're down solely and exclusively on Twitter only.

In the destiny community it's a point of contention. But then again if you're part of the destiny community literally everything is a point of contention.

I have a comment on my profile where I express some observations about the cyber truck that weren't expressly negative and it was down voted to hell.

Maybe not so many trolls, but there's a lot of pretentiousness.

mechoman444 ,

Yeah I generally agree with that.

I find that people really put a lot of stock into how much they like or dislike something subjectively rather than looking at it from an objective perspective.

mechoman444 ,

What rust? The dirt around the door jams?

Whipping the llamas music.

Man. I still use winamp to this day and I've been using them since they came out.

It's the only music player that organizes the music in a way that makes sense. I love the library interface.

mechoman444 ,

Apparently the newer version fixed that issue but it's not default. If you update it you can mess around with it in the settings.

There's someone in the comment here that explains it.

My boss just got this truck. Aside from it being severely over priced it's actually very well built and super practical and usable for light and medium light duty. Even some short distance towing.

Although for most people that can afford this thing I doubt there will be any kind of duty being performed by this truck at all.

mechoman444 ,

Lol. That's literally every single car ever made.

I once saw a video of a guy crucifying a Toyota Camry. Conversely Ford has the most number of recalls for 2023.

German luxury cars blow out their turbos at 40k miles and are so over engineered that most mechanics don't even want to work on them.

And Chrysler products are pure shit.

I'm pretty sure at this point people just like trashing Tesla just because it's popular.

It's a decent truck... If you just want to hate it because you feel superior juxtaposed to your inability to afford one then I suggest finding a job that will allow you to purchase extravagant things.

mechoman444 ,

It's very practical. It has quite a bit of function built into it. You just don't like it because you want to hate Tesla while it's still popular.

mechoman444 ,

I suppose you're an automotive engineer then?

mechoman444 ,

What?

mechoman444 ,

I like your use of the word objective.

I have sat in driven and looked at the Cyber truck. I actually have real world objective observation of this car and I can tell you from first-hand experience that it is practical, well made and well designed.

What you are experiencing is subjective emotional responses probably tainted by whatever media you lurk around in.

I'm not arguing with you. I'm not disagreeing with you. I am telling you my experience and interpretation of the car, you are disagreeing with those statements and that is perfectly fine. It's your right not to like it even if you are dead wrong.

I also really like your ad hominem attack on me for being a Musk Fanboy (which I am not). Really sets you apart from the bandwagon.

But do go on blindly pointlessly hating something you know nothing about.

mechoman444 ,

Excellent. Thank you for your capitulation. I'm happy that you agree with my assessment.

mechoman444 ,

It's amazing how many people don't know what time is and think it's something that's kept track of on a man made calendar.

Soldiers killed in war... You've got to be shitting me!

In other news fire is hot and water is wet.

Not a song per say. But vague over used band names.

I'm really into synthwave right now and there are two artists I want to listen to. 1. Victim 2. Anne.

Good luck searching for these artists.

mechoman444 ,

Yes. I believe it is. I really don't like Spotify but it's better than nothing. Thank you.

mechoman444 ,

Ya... I just sang most Hurt in my inner voice with our moving my lips or tongue. 🤷

mechoman444 ,

No. Trump just made it ok for them to come out of the woodwork. They were always there.

mechoman444 ,

Haven't used facebook in any meaningful way since 2012. Much less anxiety ever since.

mechoman444 ,

I can't even begin to tell you how much I love my VW ID4. I. Never getting internal combustion again!

mechoman444 ,

O thank God. Softcore gamers are in the clear.

It's funny how he mentions specifically hardcore gamers probably because his hypocritical ass likes to play video games.

mechoman444 ,

Okay, you can't just put the word enthusiast after things.

What the hell is a raw milk enthusiast!!!

mechoman444 ,

One would hope.

mechoman444 ,

Eagle: yo. This is some serious bullshit.

mechoman444 ,

I dream all the time it's just that I'm so rational and apathetic that even when I have nightmares I don't feel like waking up.

Just got root access.

This might be the only election I'll actually vote in.

mechoman444 ,

I don't like either candidate. I couldn't morally vote for either of them.

Americans are choking on surging fast-food prices. "I can't justify the expense," one customer says ( www.cbsnews.com )

Kevin Roberts remembers when he could get a bacon cheeseburger, fries and a drink from Five Guys for $10. But that was years ago. When the Virginia high school teacher recently visited the fast-food chain, the food alone without a beverage cost double that amount....

mechoman444 ,

A big Mac is like 11 bucks right now. The fuk.

mechoman444 ,

That contract has absolutely no legal bearing in any way shape or form.

Let them go to court over this, get thrown out and counter sued.

mechoman444 ,

They literally can't do that. Satire is a protected right under the first amendment. Anyone can make public satirical remarks regardless of signing that contract.

mechoman444 ,

The point of the contract is that if one is in breach the company can sue for damages and potentially remove the offending media.

The suing process would be through a legal body such as a court system, in this case federal court since the media is on the Internet, therefore the contract doesn't hold any legal binding. No federal court would uphold a contract that violates the first amendment.

Contracts adhere to laws and rules just like any other legal document. You can't just put whatever you want into a contract and have it be binding.

mechoman444 ,

That's not how that works. The contract is in and of itself a violation of the first amendment. Therefore it has no legal binding. They wouldn't be able to remove the offending media from any platform or sue for damages if someone breached the contract.

If there are internal ramifications due to a breach of contract that's something that could be handled internally, such as the content creator not being offered any review materials in the future. But a contract wouldn't be necessary for that either way.

Moreover, specifically for satire, there are whole acts in the law advocating for it. There is absolutely nothing, no clause or agreement that would ever prohibit someone from publicly satiring any given entity. Regardless of any contract.

mechoman444 ,

What's the opposite of a hipster?

mechoman444 ,

Well, to be fair from an outside perspective everything is technically outdoors.

mechoman444 ,

The thing is ev's are as affordable as how much you're paying for your current car PLUS GAS.

I drive 30 to 40k a year due to work. My previous car was a regular gas powered 2021 Kia Sportage. It got 26 to 28 mpg. I paid 500 a month for it plus around 800 for gas a month. That's 1300 dollars a month for my gas which doesn't include maintenance, tires, repairs and insurance.

I bought a 2023 VW ID4 and pay 800 a month for it and don't pay for gas. It's about an additional 100 for charging exclusively at home aside from an occasional charge at the fast charger here and there.

I'm saving 400 a month because I don't have to buy gas. So even though my payment is way more and the car is double the cost of my previous car I'm still saving money.

I would suspect this could be an option for many people. We have to stop looking at EVs as just cars in and of themselves and start taking into account that we don't have to put gas in them.

mechoman444 ,

Dude. I'm sorry man. 1600 bucks a month in my opinion is working for free. I don't know what country you live in but disability pays better than that in America.

Also, did spend. I no longer buy gas and it's a kind of freedom I can't even begin to describe.

I'm currently taking a dump in the state of Georgia USA. (My home state)

I wish I was taking a dump in a mansion on the French Riviera.
