If we're being pedantic, the average man has most of two testicles, and the average woman most of two breasts. The average human will have almost one of each :p

Depends on the charity.

Also, surely there's volunteer organizations where you can spend time doing that?

I'm not so sure him not researching or even checking with experts speaks to his lack of interest. He destroyed key components of one of Twitter's data centers a few years back - literally went in himself over a weekend and yanked out a bunch of cables before cancelling the lease, as I recall the story. Then a bunch of Twitter admins had to spend a good deal of time rebuilding crucial infrastructure with the systems they had left.

He's shot his own foot this way before.

(Edit) It was worse than I thought - he hired people off the street to help load rented trucks with the servers after he just yanked them out. When someone mentioned that millions of people's sensitive data was stored on them, they picked up some padlocks and set up a spreadsheet with the lock combinations... All so he could ship them to one of their other data centers, where it had already been explained to him that they couldn't hook them back up!

Might consider how you're storing it, too - I used to keep my phone upside-down in my pocket (so the charging port was pointing up), because that angled it so it would be upright when I pulled it out. That also let all the gunk fall in and stay in - seems like it takes a lot longer before this happens now that I pocket it with the port facing down!

“The AirCar fulfills a lifelong dream to bring the freedom of flight into the hands of everyday people.”

The price? Between $800,000 and $1 million, depending on specs.

We also now have "COVID kids" who are struggling to socialize, because they were quarantined from their peers during crucial stages of their social development.

Cut 1/3 up from the top or bottom?

(the apples! Cut the apples!)

Or I don't actually get to update the version my company is using, is there a workaround?

But why is that cupholder there?!

This is what I've been calling it. Not as a pejorative term, just descriptive. It has no concept of truth or not-truth, it just tells good-sounding stories. It's just bullshitting. It's a bullshit engine.

Nah. The current crop of US pickups is, I'll agree; but there's plenty of older pickups that are much more reasonably scaled. Not to mention non-American models.

Or improving living conditions so people are comfortable having kids

You’d maybe be able to cover the hospital bill from having the kid with that sum.

If there's no complications.

Eyelashes!

This was Amos's preferred (planetside) ride for a while in The Expanse!

Get it home and you've got the start of a pretty good generator!

Sure, and such regulations should be reformed. We should not just start turning stuff off and seeing who breaks!

Yeah, I'm all for proper attribution, but I think making it just a little smaller, or two lines so it doesn't line up with the main message, could have made it more clear that it wasn't part of the message.
