Their suggestion is to carry a separate external 12v power pack to open the back doors in case of accident lol, and dude posted it as a gotcha to the guy saying they won't open without power

if i'm ever in an accident, i want my escape from the burning wreckage to be as much of an indiana jones race against time as possible

did elon's girlfriend name herself after a lovely character from the simpsons

supposedly she named herself after grime music, which is basically a british version of trap

her actual music is mostly generic edm. not real interesting imo, but i guess it would serve its purpose in a dance club

A bit late to the party but I'm glad this shithead is getting sued by the cave diver guy. Libel law in the UK isn't something to be hosed with, so best of luck to him.

gently caress that. worst of luck to him

i hope he loses half his fortune to some rando brit expat for being an rear end in a top hat

wtf does "they said I couldn't buy twitter" mean, twitter accepted his offer probably faster than any offer has ever been accepted before and is desperate to make it happen as fast as possible

i assume he's referring to the poison pill that tricked him into ramping up his offer beyond any modicum of reason or common sense

he won the pissing contest but lost the pissing war

endless Wife and I were sitting on the front porch yesterday morning drinking coffee and we hear a couple walk by and the lady says something like "he really seems like he wants to improve the world!" and wife is like "sounds insufferable" to me and then the lady says "But maybe the Twitter thing isn't so good" to which I say to wife "yes, insufferable is a good description of Elon"

that sounds almost too perfect to have actually happened but it also tracks as truthful

The only product that anyone gave a poo poo about was a machine the size of a toaster that would perform hundreds of tests on a tiny amount of blood, which was 100% a sham. The things that actually worked weren’t any different than what a labcorp or quest could already do (and they were doing the tests for Theranos in a lot of cases!) and were entirely irrelevant to the insane valuation.

i quick goat thinking put some gold plated 3.5mm adapters in the tubes of the thumper and after realizing what i did wrote it off

that thing was great for getting the neighbor lady pissed when i went full auto on half-life 2

:corsair:

mine's an ada104. i guess it's not strictly for computers but its only inputs are 3.55mm

getting complaints from the neighbors was easy when i lived in an apartment and still possible now that i live in a house

i lost the remote a long time ago, but the bar just sits on my desktop anyway, so v:shobon:v

I had said "... that isn't Tarkovsky" because I'm already a huge fan of Andrei Rublev, Stalker and The Mirror. (I actually really enjoy The Steamroller and the Violin too, even though it is his student film.)

I've actually already seen Kin-dza-dza, and it's great.

I have the soundtrack of Siberiade, but haven't seen the actual film. (Eduard Artemyev is one of my favorite Soviet composers.)

I'll have to check all of these out! Thanks for the recommendations!
