  • Yeah, I saw some assuming he was drunk but it is just as likely that this guy made a split second decision and jumped on it thinking what could go wrong I’ve done it before and poof.

    People don’t like to view vehicles as murder machines but they very much are. If raising the front end 40% increases the chance of death by 40% to pedestrians and the only benefis were “I like the way it looks” or in this case the car being designed to accelerate at speeds that arent comfortable or safe because “I think it can be fun sometimes” at the detriment of others is just poorly planned.

    Sure the guy is at fault, but so is the company that manufactured it, and the government bodies that allowed it on public roads.

    If someone wants to have a hobby playing with and racing cars, that’s fine; but they don’t belong in public areas.


  • I hadn’t played since it came out really and played some for the first time again last month. My dedecution has been if it’s metal, you can plow through it, if it’s wood it’ll plow through you.

    And then all the sudden a few objects will defy these assumptions and you wind up driving through a fence and find a metal rod turning you into a pretzel.



  • I mean if we are being real they voted to not pay to renew the contract, and people checked to see if they were still there when the the contract ended.

    No where was it mentioned the date the cameras were required to be removed by, nor what would happen with them.

    A good comparative we have seen in the U.S. would be direct tv. If you cancel the service and the contract ended on June 29th, Direct Tv doesn’t come out and remove the dish from your roof that day, they leave it there and it’s your problem.

    Cleveland likely needs to start a lawsuit against the company for leaving their products on their property and if they aren’t removed by a set “reasonable” date schedule someone from the city to remove them.

    Really I’m sure flock is just hoping to get them to pass a separate contract so they don’t have to move them to another city




  • I still use jerboa quite often but have been considering moving. It worked well for a couple years but the last month or two there are stupid things like, not being able to scroll back up through the comments where it’ll get stuck, or if I collapse a comment, and try to reopen it the content is blank so I have to exit the comment section and reopen to be able to the top of the comment section and start over. If it is a long comment thread you then have to scroll slow because if you miss the comment you collapsed by accident you can’t scroll back up to find it because the first problem. At that point I just give up on that and move on.

    I made a post about it in the jerboa thread a month ago, it appears to be happening to more than just me, and across multiple devices, even someone on graphene said it was happening to them.




  • Yeah my first thought was that those aren’t memes, they are the “guidance” I guess. The words are the message, the background sets the tone. Bad luck Brian isn’t the meme, he’s what sets the stage that lets you know the tone for the hook.

    If someone says: "Toenail needs cutting

    Kick a brick wall"

    Youd be like okay that’s excessive … but you put chaos wolf behind it and your like, I shouldve expected that


  • Believe it’s the point of the post. Voting for someone who supports pulling money from the impoverished and giving it to the ultra-rich… While being impoverished.

    The fact that 90% of the population isn’t voting against corporate Democrats and Republicans who support the current taxation and distribution of wealth that supports just 10% of the population to thrive and the rest to struggle is terrible. But they spend millions on advertising and billions on other media venues to push the agenda to protect the status quo.


  • You are regurgitatating what the government wanted you to say without even reading what I said. I don’t want it to be crypto. I want it to not be owned by local governments. You’ve been taught to say all of that, and none of it is required. If a currency is accepted by people because they know they can use it, a local government has no say. If 340 million Americans started accepting penguin print as currency tomorrow, the government would try to ban it, call it only used for buying drugs, not actually backed by anything, doesn’t really exist, and everything you have heard about crypto… Because it takes power away from the government. But in reality they couldn’t do anything but accept that penguin print is a currency, because you can trade it for goods and services. And if 200 nations across the world do it… Then if a local government fails, the amount a chicken costs on penguin print, doesn’t fluctuate much
