@klaus said in Richter: sitting on a Bösie If he were a real pianist, he'd be shitting on a Bösie! (I said that just to piss off @jon-nyc )

@mik said in Cadillac XT5 LIMP mode: And this is why I don't want a self-driving car. D4's Jeep Liberty (2015) went into LIMP mode about a year ago. I forget what the issue was, but she had just dropped SIL off at Midway, and she had G2 with her...at 8 AM.

@mik said in No Respect: Not sure I understand. Not apparent from the video that's embedded here. Go you youtube, and you'll see the explanation. In the description: "Shoutout to these utility workers in Louisiana who turned their back on Joe Biden."

@axtremus said in It's a problem.: Didn't the the CIA and the US military verified that the Afghans don't have a child bride before enlisting their help with the promise of relocating them and their families to the US? Maybe you want the US government to add a rule to never enlist intelligence help from those who do not conform to US family and US interpersonal relationship norms? Not that hard to deal with in the US either, just let social services and the family court system take care of the underaged "brides" according to state laws once in the US and be done with it. They're married. It ain't that simple.

@bachophile Given the past few years, that might not be a bad thing.

I was surprised to read that only 2,000 were built.

Might be problematic this time of year.

As much as I dislike abortion, I am opposed to the Texas law. It's a horrible precedent and akin to 'Nice little career you have there. Shame if something should happen to it'. It's not the business of a state legislature to set up civil suits to enforce a societal goal.

@mik said in Data Breach: So many docs don't look at the chart patient they have in front of them. And this too.

Do not like. It may be more effective, but at what cost? There’s no real end to how technology can be used to enforce and detect human behavior. I have long feared a world where choices are dictated by the surety of detection.

Yes, really...

@89th said in 75,000 vehicles: @doctor-phibes said in 75,000 vehicles: They're probably trying to fix them with tools left behind by the Soviets, which would have completely incompatible thread-types. Do you think instead of Allen wrenches and Phillips head screwdrivers? They have Vlad wrenches and Sergey head screwdrivers? Yes. Yes, I think that.
