They all got bought by acer and turned into the shittiest brand-name PCs on the planet.


My favorite feature of IPv6 is that there are so many addresses available. Every single IPv4 address right now could have its own entire IPv4 range of addresses in IPv6. It’s mind-boggling huge.
Even plus even equals even.
Odd plus odd equals even.
Only odd plus even makes an odd.
Are there twice as many even numbers as there are odd numbers?


User is very upset. It was a broken bulb last time, so it must be a broken bulb this time. Why can’t the help desk make bulbs that don’t break? Bulb was fine, user was locking and unlocking the door instead of flipping the light switch.


Support would be like
User reports lightbulb is broken. Tries to talk user through troubleshooting. Problem resolved by turning on light.


Yep. My '99 Crown Vic did the same thing… around the 250,000 mile mark. Had it flatbedded to My local mechanic 400 bucks later I was back on the road.
Good thing this is a truck with similar body-on-frame construction, otherwise that would be really expens…oh wait…
Yeah, but we don’t do shit about it, so as a society, it’s okay.
We should be doing things like…
Have adequate public transport so that bad drivers have an alternative means of transportation.
Impose harsher penalties for dangerous behavior on the road.
Require a higher degree of driver training in order to obtain a license.


Try to keep the mouse centered in your mousing area. The aiming motions for the mouse are shorter, snappier throws rather than the long and slow arcs of an analog stick.
So move the mouse to your aimpoint, then pick up and recenter. I find that a full “flick” for me should go about 360 degrees. You can also check for mouse acceleration settings, this increases the rotation of your view based on how fast you move the mouse. Good for games where action is coming in from all sides, but it can cause some problems with precision and consistency.

Well, the guy who made the trucks gutted the CFPB a few months back…


Like most trucks.


All I want is a LHD Kei truck with a CIWS on the back. Is that too much to ask?
Honestly, best thing you can do is highlight the number of progressive/non-conservative voters you have. Oh, and make sure to mention that all your oil is halaal or something. Maybe also provide a financial incentive for the Canadians who love the new American fash so much to move here. USA is already fucked, but you might be able to toss some of your trash in the dumpster fire. It’s a win-win really.
I was so sure that was going to be a South Park clip.
Canada is great. Consider anti-Canada posters a quick and easy “red flag” to block someone.
Unless they are talking about mistreatment of indigenous people, or war crimes in the early to mid 1900’s. Those are probably legitimate complaints.


Every car has an ECU
The point.


Not that common, I think most places try to flash the ECU and if that doesn’t work they chuck it. I would not be surprised if a lot of software bugs get resolved as a bad ECU.


Let’s see here.
ECU - that has a bug and your dead in the water
Push to start - bug in that system, and you’re stuck.
Hill Hold - have a software glitch there and your brake is jammed on.
Sorry bub, there are multiple system on your car where a software glitch will stop it from driving.
Supposedly, that is the whole deal with the Chilean Sea Bass that he gloats about. Spared no expense. Apparently that fish sounds fancy, but is actually super cheap. The whole park needed to have the shine of a top-of-the-line facility, but in the end, Ingen and Hammond had no idea what they were really cooking up.
The raptors for instance, I always got the feeling that paddock was kind of small and rapidly constructed. Those things had killed multiple people in the past, and the park’s response was cram them into a jail cell. You’d think an intelligent, dangerous animal, that was not part of the tour or experience would be euthanized, rather than risk the whole park…but here is Ingen not dealing with the problem, and instead, actively making more raptors.
