I just wish my car knew when I need the AC compressor on. How hard is it to use the outside thermometer to decide?

Fair enough; even though I haven't experienced that, I've noticed that video playback has been stuttery tonight, so it's either something else coincidentally or just more Chrome issues.

Not with my experience. It boots me to the start of a video, subreddit, .etc .etc and reloads it far more often than not.

I don't get it... I set my car to 68 auto the day I got it and it's never been anything different

Firefox?

> *Base pay caps did apply to current employees, and base pay is now increasing above old caps, but there were no significant overall pay scale increases for current employees, only the usual incremental ones

This is pretty interesting to me. So you're saying when they lifted the cap, existing employees' comp was not changed, but I'm guessing new hires are being brought in within the new range (meaning way larger base salaries than their incumbent peers)? Are they given smaller new hire stock packages to balance out total comp? I can't imagine trying to measure internal pay equity between two people in the same role/grade/location and are on two entirely different comp strategies. And then keeping those two distinct strategies up-to-date against current market data. Sounds like a nightmare.

They should have moved everyone over at the same time and incurred a one-time expense, while simultaneously dropping their stock refresh budgets.

The CO2 in the atmosphere is minuscule compared to the total CO2 in the oceans. So if you are taking CO2 from the oceans and believe that removing a tiny time percentage will some how magically lower atmospheric levels of CO2, I think you are wrong. Please keep in mind man’s scientific understanding of the total CO2 cycle is surprisingly poor. 95% of total CO2 released into the atmosphere is done naturally with the CO2 cycle. Please tell me who can accurately measure the natural sources of CO2 with a greater degree of certainty of +- 5%?

There are plenty of OEMs not forcing screens on people. Vote with your wallet.

That new Nissan that uses CAPACITIVE buttons I saw today gave me cancer.

Imagine, not even a touch screen. Fucking tactileless buttons embedded into your dash. Fucking kill me now.

The new Chrome settings do not preclude you from starting where you left off, it just takes a second to reload the page with the video at the spot you left it (give or take a few seconds).

When you realize what’s eating up RAM is Google sending out your data to third parties for profit.

>Unused RAM is wasted RAM. I want the machine to use 90% of the available RAM. Kinda why I bought extra.

i will be forever impressed by people who can contradict themselves in one single paragraph.

There is such a thing as being too efficient delegating tasks to automated systems to the point of just being cheap and lazy. We’ve been publicly beta testing these cost cutting measures but there’s no profit motive to make free services anything more than barely usable.

You can also make single layer PCBs at home using etching solution and a Sharpie to draw the circuit. Or a laser printer to print onto a transparency sheet, and using an iron to transfer the toner onto the copper side or PCB.

hehe we monetized it as a prank

It has been fixed. Buttons are on the main screen now.

I think this is yet another case for unions

I don't know if it's been improved with the latest models, but the CPU in the 2020 is dog slow which makes using the map painful.

Otherwise? Great car

> The alternative is…

Sure. It’s either the current system or your absurd plan. There are no other possible options whatsoever.

> If it doesn’t bother you that…

I never said it didn’t. I just think your solution is childish and unworkable.

That's a shame. I loved the feeling like I was standing in a wind tunnel everytime I opened Chrome.

May not be for me but it’s cute and has the snark appeal for the increasingly niche, self-cultivating culture the site has built for itself. You can stack the verification badges, make them into a rainbow gradient, etc. Some users have spent hundreds of dollars just buying an inordinate amount of badges just to make their posts a little more irritating to look at. It’s all kind of funny and charming.
