Walks like pig, oinks like a pig...

I used to buy a road atlas every few years, and for a while took advantage of my dad's AAA membership (they'd give you free maps)- at one time I had a map of every state (except Alaska and Hawaii) plus a number of cities...

Which is a good thing, at least for how my mind works- leaving it up to the internet to fill in the details frees up space in my head to retain a greater breadth of vague knowledge...

Note for future - even with an automatic transmission, you can shift into a lower gear (2 or even L) on a downhill to have the engine slow you down and save your brakes.

Haha, I power my Roku from the TV's USB port, so I can just turn off the TV to kill the Roku.

It's not half a century ago, more like 10-15 years. Basically the old style with 3-4 speeds and a torque converter wasted power, and I still had one of those (brand new) from '06 to '09. Most automatics now have mostly the same innards as a manual, often a 6 speed, but with automatic actuators.

Us (Arizona) yes I can, though I haven't in some years because my wife won't, and we don't need 2 cars... But I ride a motorcycle so I do get to handle a clutch still.

I guess we'll have to give Texas back to Mexico as reparations... We sure won't miss it.

Pizza?

Dead link.

Not saying the question shouldn't be asked, but replacing the fuse should be the first thing. If it blows again, you have a problem. If it's fine, you probably had a bad fuse. It's more if you bypass the fuse that you are asking for trouble.

Fwiw, any statement like this is worth less than what you'd have to pay a lawyer...

I feel this. Fuck it's dark.

On Android - it just kept resetting back to the left again...

As if France would have him...

But those things you're excluding are the most important parts of the source code...

Depends on the language, really... C maps pretty closely to assembly language, it's not as simple as one mnemonic to one machine code byte, more like tokens get mapped to sequences of machine code, a function call translates to some code that sets up a stack frame, a return tears it down...

I know you are but what am I?

I'm with you. I recently asked my boss about part time options, and she laughed at me.

It wouldn't be so bad if we'd actually take away the privilege when people fuck up... But it makes more money to just ticket people and let them keep on fucking up.
