Ctrl+f code has to be some of the most efficient automation ever written. Time spent was probably about day and the time saved in work hours is probably in the trillions at this point.

Actual meaning if you’re curious are Lemon Laws.

One day I’ll remember English isn’t gendered. Thanks for pointing it out!

Trust me they’re known for that outside of Germany as well.

Bonus you also get to kick the back of the seat in front of you for the entire flight.

When I was a kid I wanted to grow up to be uncle Buck. Unfortunately my brother took that position (down to driving a shit car that randomly backfires) and I’m just a normal dude 😕

Me and the other Brave Little Toaster kids ended up a bit weird.

Friendly reminder that Ted Nugent shit his pants and didn’t bathe in order to dodge the draft.

Addicting maybe but they literally are not drugs. More akin to gambling addiction then any sort of drug dependency. There’s a gigantic difference between the two. Sort of bothers me when people throw them in the same pile as they are so much different when it comes to how to deal with those types of addiction.

Well it has something to do with election cycles cause Republicans will block this every way they can. So the only way for it to even have a shot is for Democrats to take both the House and Senate with a 2/3 majority to be able to make a constitutional amendments. I sincerely doubt that would happen. After that it would take a very long political slog to ratification. Which again, I don’t have high hopes for it to get through the States.

Election cycles are how people get elected, so it has a lot to do with election cycle leaning very heavily towards the Democrats for it to not be DOA. Then it has a long uphill battle to get it ratified by the states. To say that it has a slim chance of going anywhere is really overstating the chances of it happening.

Huh I’ve been saying this for years. Even commented it a while back on lemmy. hope they can get it through but don’t have super high hopes unless the next couple of election cycles lean heavily towards the Democrats.

Yep I kind of figured that’d be the case hence why I haven’t watched it. The book really was pretty good but I’m not sure how that nuance could translate to a movie. Also it’s been several years since I read the book and I’m sure my takeaway would be a bit different now seeing what he has done politically since then.

I liked his book. It was really good and could relate to a lot of it. I absolutely do not agree with his politics and think he took a hard right turn during the Trump administration. Before that he was more a centrist and could even agree with several of his non-social political stances. Since then he’s become an absolute wingnut and I would struggle to find a single thing we had any common ground on.

Has anyone else has read Hillbilly Elegy and/or watched the movie (I haven’t yet), are you as baffled as I am about his changes in political stances? It just seemed so odd seeing where he came from and turning into what amounts to a proponent of facism.

Where I worked we had a bigass map broken out into a grid. If you didn’t know where an address was you could pull out a huge book that had the grid sectioned by street/block address (at least where I worked). So for example if someone had 12013 Lemmy Ln. You could look up in the book Lemmy Ln. Block 12000 and find it was on A4. You learned the entire service area pretty damn quick so like 99% of the time you knew where it was off the top of your head.

It was fun as fuck. Like the most fun job I ever had. I wish money wasn’t as important cause I would’ve done that job for the rest of my life.

That would’ve changed Bullet Tooth Tony’s speech a bit I guess. “And the fact that you’ve got Replica written down the side of your guns… Oh and mine does too because this is a movie and we all need to be safe.”

You mean Linksys, not Cisco. Cisco sold Linksys to Belkin, now Foxconn, like over a decade ago. I think it’s a pretty important distinction considering Cisco is enterprise focused and linksys is more home/consumer focused.
