I dunno, Wii seemed to manage it just fine.

… and if they were hanging around a polling place that might be a problem.

BioForge was particularly impressive for the time, with mixed pre-rendered graphics.

No, he’s right. The power glove was garbage from the get-go. Really cool cyberpunk thing on paper but … hell, we still aren’t there today!

The Thing is the same for me.

I could also start to throw in most of the ridiculous 8-foot-tall American brodozer pickups, but while they’re ugly they’re mostly just bland rather than atrocious-looking. And my aversion to them is not necessarily based entirely on their appearance.

Yeah, YMMV.

You could also throw in the VW Thing and the Yugo or AMC Pacer. I looked at a couple of lists of ugly cars just to see if I was missing some, but most were just boring and not particularly ugly.

I stand by the Aztek being worse than the PT cruiser though. The PT cruiser is one of those that falls on the side of “boring” for me, not egregiously ugly. I understand it’s also a pile of garbage from a quality perspective, so definitely a bad car.

Pontiac Aztek, Tesla Cybertruck, Nissan Cube.

“On accident” is not right. “By mistake”, “by accident”, opposite of “on purpose”

Gazelle. Sold by my local bike shop which I trust.

Little pricy and all in all I’d prefer something more open than Bosch. But… so far so good.

Several things:

1. Bidet. ‘Nuff said.
2. automatic litter box. Took a lot of training for our one dumb cat but since then … life changing.
3. ebike. So many times I used to drive because I was feeling lazy or woke up just a smidge late… now I can just dial up the assist a notch and it’s no problem.

Cast iron is fine with induction.

No worries, I don’t know all the details and looking more deeply, it looks to be more complicated than I was remembering too.

Oranges don’t exist naturally, was the point I was making. Theyre a hybrid, derived at least partly from pomelo.

Oranges do not naturally have that much sugar.

That’s completely untrue.

Evolution applies to the entire lifespan — if we could “reproduce” but died in childbirth every time, our species would have gone extinct long ago.

Parents and grandparents also contribute greatly to the success of a child long long after they’re born, helping to ensure it also survives to reproductive age.

Oh, totally. Afghanistan had multiple generations tied up in it, which is horrendous.

However, the US also didn’t take nearly the losses that Russia is throwing “into the grinder” as the parent post puts it.

I think if they drag the war out so long that kids not even conceived today are potential soldiers, then soldiers will be the least of their problems.

You did fine, but man is the headline underselling the problem. They got Al Capone for tax evasion, too, so here’s hoping history repeats.

I mean shit, if corruption were the worst of him we’d be in a lot better shape than we are now.

It’s vector.

Raster is a grid of dots, vector is lines from point to point.
