Don't forget to tip them!

A video which puts all the arguments better than I ever could: https://youtu.be/jN7mSXMruEo

But the notion you can only have high clearance by making your hood so massive to the point you can't see your child as you run them over in your own driveway, doesn't make sense.

I'd strongly encourage you to give the video a go.

These trucks are now infesting my streets to (Australia) to a lesser degree. It's an arms race that really needs to be stopped. I hope you consider some of the points made in the video.

You're right. Literally unplayable

Honestly, good on you so much for sharing. The fact you're not ashamed and willing to share could save someone from the same attack, and as others have pointed out, even the most security minded of us can have lapses in judgement.

I'm really glad you weren't screwed in the end.

Power to you, don't let the food snobs stop you!

Hey American modern pick up truck heads. Notice how normal the bonnet is? Notice how you can SEE enough to not run people over? This is a true utility vehicle. Look how massive this bad boy is without being a death machine 👍

Yikes 😬

Bloody English spelling... There's a reason spelling bees don't exist in some other languages.

We have a competition for spelling because English spelling is so bad at its job.

What fucking year is it in these people's minds? 1600?

Chiming in with barely any knowledge on the topic.

Universities are massive institutions, with serious cash behind them. What the hell is stopping, say, all the public Australian universities just setting up their own journal, running it at cost for all the universities in Australia?

Make it make sense.

I am always neutral on this sort of thing (i.e. I believe in democracy, and despite what people will have you believe, Taiwan is not a monolith of opinion of the one China / reunification / independence question)

But this is fucking hilarious

Well, you must have a great palette haha.

If you randomly give me one of the two: no idea.

Back to back, sure I could tell, else, it's cola.

Imagine how boss a culture would be being able to count up to 31 on a single hand, and 1023 with two hands.

At risk of being stuck-up: What, and Coca-Cola is not too sweet? Cola is sugar water with a bit of flavour.

I would say they only become distinguishable if you actually like cola, and drink I enough to be able to distinguis. Like all things taste, if you aren't exposed to it often, you can't tell the difference.

I'd bet you GF just rarely drank either coke or Pepsi.

I so badly wish this was publishable. It would be SO useful.

We want the legend, rather than the man, it would seem

As a vegan who spends no time associating with other vegans, because it's not a large part of my identity (other than watching cooking videos), these people are idiots who are getting high on being righteous.

So much so they overdosed and became animal abusers.

Quite ironic. Funny, if it weren't causing harm.

I actually think these are fine. If I can quickly recognise each on my homescreen (I don't use labels) then it's fine, and I've never had a problem with any of these.

I like it because each company each has its own set of apps, and they have somewhat unified app icons.

Proton is the same, which similar icons as google but with their own unified branding.

I like it, personally.

(Pressure) * (volume) = (# moles) * (gas constant) * (temperature)

The ideal gas law.

In another thread I admit I didn't explain my position here well enough. I would only not explain this equation given sufficient context (e.g. I've shown all those variables in a table, and my intended audience is people familiar with basic chemistry, which I'd expect would be everyone reading the report for this particular example, since this is high school chemistry, and the topic of all reports I work on is chemical engineering.)

People can read the conclusions if they're not familiar with chemistry, and for the detail, they're not my intended audience anyway.

Generally I still hold the position that you should define variables as much as possible, unless it's overly cumbersome, given your intended audience would clearly understand anyway.

In context this simple equation is obvious even if you change the symbols, as long as there is sufficient context to draw from.
