  • Fediverse memes can be posted anywhere, including in existing memes communities. That's where all the beans and jeans memes are.

  • Alternately: CEOs with interest in short term profits tend to exploit underpaid workers.

  • I wash my hands afterwards.

  • Some us don't poop in the woods every day.

  • Poop drill.

  • MAGA folks claim to have lots of things and never deliver because their stupid cult following doesn't actually care about whether something they want to believe is factual.

    They just want to be angry.

  • Not for a clutch kick, for conditions where steering without acceleration OR deceleration is safer. The best I can think of is gradual turns in icy conditions where it felt a lot more grippy in neutral at slow speeds.

    Pretty rare, just a curiosity thing and without a pedal to gradually get back in gear it wouldn't be the same anyway.

  • Can they be put in neutral at high speed and switched back to a gear at speed?

  • What a manual transmission offers is the feeling of being in full control.

    Being able to maintain a gear selection and being able to directly control the clutch are huge advantages in specific conditions like extreme weather or some off road terrain. A surprise shift during a curve in icy conditions makes me nervous every time for example.

    If an automatic system allowed for direct control of gears and the ability to disengage and reingage the clutch on demand it would cover those scenarios.

  • Those are the only two options. It is not possible that it just provides some benefits to a small subset of techology and industry like prior innovations.

    Nope, it must be feast or famine.

  • Even worse, you don't need CSAM to start with. If a learning model has regular porn and nude reference model photography of people under 18 that are used for drawing anatomy, then they have enough information to combine the two. Hell, it probably doesn't even need the people under 18 to actually be nude.

    Hell, society tends to assume any nudity inder 18 to be CSAM anyway, because someone could see it that way.

  • Maybe the rest of your family is just so used to it they ignore it.

  • Not enough exercise can make enjoyment of chewing into a destructive habit. Yeah, a dog that gets exercise might still love to chew things up, but lack of exercise will make it worse.

  • We have a Boston Terrier that loves to 'kill' anything with a squeaker in it within minutes, including the Kong toys although they were the absolute longest lasting ones.

    What took some time was playing with the dog with the toy and convincing them not to kill all their toys. It took about 15 kong tennis balls before he caught on to the 'no kill' idea means even when we aren't around. Then we moved on to regular toys where he will still take out the squeaker, but then doesn't shred the rest.

    My steps were just getting his attention when he started to gnaw on it and say 'no kill' calmly and make eye contact. If he stopped chewing, or did it less aggressivly he got praise until he caught onto the idea. Then just repetition and eventually saying it about the ball when we are done playing and then about other toys too. Took a few months because he really loves to shred stuff apart.

  • Calm your tits bro.

    Explaining something looks like a racist stereotype doesn't mean someone is riled up.

  • Since the racist caricature is based on equating east Asian people to rats, it was a reasonable assumption.

    I regret nothing.

  • Russia and China still have ruling parties even if their head has almost complete control. If Putin or Xi were removed, it would be through the party selecting someone else. North Korea is basically a monarchy.

  • My thumbs must have had a seizure!
