they did this to my two year old soundbar a year ago, which made the entire 5.1 setup useless since it's all driven by the soundbar

also don't buy LG, as they design devices that will brick themselves with no way to recover the firmware and will simply tell you you're shit out of luck

yeah I still can't believe these got banned in Ontario. so much more effective and safe in school zones than speed bumps or artificial lane narrowing

although fines should have been raised, like all vehicle fines, to a % of income/wealth

and I will admit that I don't know how you ensure that they don't become like Flock

excellent writeup

but nothing new. just lazy cops being lazy, seems like.

how many infractions before they get fired and blacklisted?

yeah I get that the standardization is great, but no cross seems like an odd choice to me

yes. dutch signs use red circles to indicate what is not allowed

nah, I think it's pretty fucking embarassing for every country that took part in it. including my own.

just bought a bike from an american dude up here in Canada and I don't think he owned a metric hex key set, judging by how every other bolt is stripped to fuck

that's the case for me and it seems like most of the people in my circle

yeah none of us care about the hourly updates. but our circle doesn't do that, we generally would only share things other people actually want to see. but it's been a long time since anyone did that. now the only sharing that happens is just Strava and in group chats

when instagram changed the algorithm a decade ago to no longer show your friends' recent posts, that's when they lost me. prior to that, it was actually useful for sharing trips and events with friends.

now it and Facebook are entirely ads / sponsored posts, and random shit fb thinks I'll hate

how has it helped you?

The only thing I can think of is that it detected you were sleepy when you knew that and had already chosen to continue driving

nah I was definitely waiting on CoD updates on PS3 in high school
