WBD's stock price has tanked ~78% since David Zaslav was announced as CEO— $32.68 on 05/19/21 to $7.32, today— to say nothing of the brand loyalty, goodwill, & creative talent he's destroyed. It is amazing & genuinely horrifying that anyone could fail this badly, & remain in a position of authority

Me, at age seven, bored in the back seat during a long road trip, accidentally almost inventing the derivative: “dad, if the speedometer says we’re going seventy miles an hour, but we don’t drive an hour, how does it know that?” My dad: “uh… magic.” *turns up AC/DC’s Powerage*

in some ways the problem with google maps is a preview of how shitty increasing driving automation is going to make things. You can read what I wrote about it, if you want.

Ahem, acclimatizing bears to the presence of humans and incentivizing them with human food increases the odds of hostile bear-human interactions in the form of someone getting their ass ripped apart by a big frickin bear, thank you

But yeah! It’s crazy! You can watch traffic patterns that used to take months or years to develop as people spread word of shortcuts rise and fall in a single afternoon! What we’re doing to the traffic network is just wild

I’m lucky that I used to obsess over traffic patterns as a kid and didn’t realize until college that what I was doing was obsessing over bonkers complicated calculus, so at least I get some intellectual entertainment out of this piss hell future

been with family driving across LA and watched as Google would recommend a side route as faster then, in real time, I could watch it clog up with traffic (cause everybody is using GPS) until the way we were going already became the fastest way again. It’s kind of a fascinating network effect.

Lmao same. I’m all for meters and kilometers! Inches are stupid, 5,100 how many ever feet per mile is ridiculous, having to do “7 and 5/8ths inches” when I’m doing carpentry is dumb as shit. But you can pry my temperate scale based on human habitability from my cold dead hands!

I’ll say that having my iPod or phone swinging around in my pocket while I’m running sucks ass no matter how much it weighs, and the shuffle had a little clip that let me put it on my sleeve so I didn’t even need exercise pants with pockets.

Is it fancy French toast? Like with brioche bread and fruit or like rolled in oats and cornflakes before grilling? Then that. Otherwise it’s real hard to fuck up a waffle

It also let you flip a switch and it sorted the playlist by however you sorted it when you loaded it, so you could flip through them alphabetically or by artist. Wasn’t much different than flipping through tracks on a CD at that point.

I loved the shuffle for jogging and the gym. It was just a playlist of 200 or so of my exercise tracks and it weighed nothing so I could bring it with me and it was never bulky

I’ve read a hypothesis that the Theia impact that is supposed to have created the moon is partly why earth has such a robust magnetic field, because Earth basically absorbed the metallic core of a Mars-sized planet so it’s a bit bigger than it should be by how big earth is.

You don’t have to be fast on your feet, you just have to not debate them like they’re saying points worth refuting. There’s a reason all anybody remembers from the 2020 debates was “would you shut up, man”

My girlfriend also used to live on a farm so she brought a giant freezer for the garage you could easily stack like four corpses in. Y’know, the kind they find in a storage unit in CSI with a body in it? Otherwise yeah it would never have worked, lmao.
