> No manual transmission car can be up/down shifted during track in / cornering / trackout without upsetting the car's balance; dual-clutch gearbox cars can be.

Speak for yourself, but I don't really have much of an issue shifting while going hot through a corner.

> And lastly, they can have more gears.

Why is this better? Fuel efficiency, sure, but are we going for a Fast and the Furious race scene shifting thing?

This kinda feels like a no true Scotsman, if it walks quacks and flies like a duck it doesn't matter.

Edit: I say this a cyclist myself. I see other people on bikes do some dumb shit, we can't say they aren't real cyclists because they do something that makes us look bad.

Which is not a stock macOS app. Which is what the point was. Stock macOS sucks with window and monitor management. I run three screens and it's aggravating sometimes.

Xfinity had a router that did not work with the Xbox One when it came out. Wired was fine but wireless just did not work. I believe a software update fixed it and I don't recall if it was the router or the Xbox that was ultimately the issue.

Fielded a lot of grumpy calls that Christmas morning.

Well what do you know, TIL. Thank you!

Since I cannot directly reply to you (ajconway) -- this is thoroughly untrue. Tesla does it at the very least and I'm aware that is becoming a "feature" offered in other vehicles now too.

It absolutely is not. I do not want my 2 ton moving vehicle updated on a whim. My 2019 has a screen I can never really turn off that is bright at night, my 2008 has a slow laggy UI that an update will never fix. The 2000 Miata sitting in my garage has the best interface of them all. Push buttons and dials for climate control, two window switches in the middle tombstone area and that's really it outside the typical steering wheel controls for signals, lights and windshield wipers. It's amazingly simple and should continue working even when my newer cars are dead and gone.

This frustrates me to no end in our family car. Even if I "turn it off", which turns off the radio, the screen still shows a clock over a globe and still glows. There is no escaping it.

That depends on where you are. We're in a Ting area, no signs of Google Fiber here. Ting is still a bit out since our development isn't completely sold yet, so we're stuck with Spectrum until then.

So overrun with bears and falling apart?

This is how I've always seen it as well, though I consider myself independent.

It's funny the issues you mention are commonly held by quite a few people I know, myself included. "Why can't the gay couple up the street get married, while smoking weed and shooting off some rifles?" is how I describe my views.

I've definitely noticed that the amount of people I meet with views like that have been a little rarer lately.

By what metric? This is a normal everyday thing in some countries. I was running to the corner store and grabbing milk, cheese or beer, among other groceries, when I was under 10. This was Spain in the 80s/90s and afaik is still a thing. Or walking clear across town to hang out with friends or go to school. In what way is teaching kids independence and giving them your trust not beneficial?

Yea the efforts of people like you pushing anti-nuclear views. Can't wait for the greenhouse gases to make warming even worse while we use NAT gas and coal to smooth over wind and solar.

You argue this a lot on HN but real world shows the opposite happening.

Tell that to my dad, who dealt with a vindictive ex-wife who cleaned him out and used my sister as a pawn against him. My sister still hates my dad to this day due to the lies she told her about him.

Justify it however you like. Violence just makes people go against you and is wrong, full stop.

I hate to "be that guy" but this ends up being a both sides issue. There was a notice sent around to some churches after the RvW appeal to be vigilant since they had received some info on people possibly acting violently towards churches since they blamed them for it. (Edit to add: Please see https://janesrevenge.noblogs.org/2022/06/26/janes-revenge-ni... -- these are pointedly anti-fascists, the opposite of the right. So this is a both sides issue.)

Americans just don't seem to want to get along and understand on any side of the aisle. I can't talk politics to my family since they're all charged on their views and if I differ we just argue.

"Update: An Activision Blizzard spokesperson says that the company will not willingly recognize GWA Albany."

Gonna go down kicking and screaming instead of just doing better.

Nah, I moved out to NC from SoCal last year. Harris Lake is the place I'm talking about, cools down Shearon Harris nuclear plant. Looks like thats up around Sacramento? My cousin recently moved to Modesto from PA so I'll recommend it to him.

With an exposure of 1.4mrem, as opposed to an X-ray which gives a 3.2mrem dose. So a nothing sandwich.

I discovered something like this nearby to me recently. Not salt water since we're about two hours from the ocean, but a lake with playgrounds, beaches and forested walking areas. The lake is man made to cool the nearby nuclear plant and I suspect these were built as a concession to the state, but they're very well maintained and nice. I take my three year old fishing and to the playground and he loves it.

"Hey mom stop using Facebook? No, well bye!" -- what an awful way to live.

The weight of the rim edge on the sidewall of the tire can damage it leading to early failure. So, yes, it does at least damage them.

If the weight of the car on the tire sidewall doesn't cause damage... then they need new tires or risk a blowout. And a bike pump? I'm not so sure.

I mean the aqueduct system already pumps water up 1900 feet over the Tehachapi mountains[0], so that might be hard but feasible.

Yes, absolutely. Full stop. Just because it's a cultural norm doesn't make it compatible with modern society.

SIE is technically a different part of Sony and is analogous with PlayStation at this point.

Jesus where do you live? I moved from San Diego to Raleigh, didn't get a pay adjustment and even that place wouldn't be anywhere near that cost here.

Hit the nail on the head. It's a bit more than that realistically.

I work for CrowdStrike just so any potential bias is out there in the open, but do not speak for them.

Yeah that's not why I trust Elon less than VW but go on. Tell me why I, me, have this opinion. Since you know me.
