[When being asked if she would be riding one of the new rides at her park ~10 yrs ago] “Oh goodness no, if I got on there parts of me would start flyin’ off!”
She’s plenty light natured about it.
CAFE, safety, larger wheels, more gadgets. These mega corps do their research. Turns out the “real small truck lovers” are a vocal minority, or the things you say you want didn’t include all the things you take for granted in every new car because they just…are.
Ford and Hyundai have tried to bring service to that market with the Maverick and Santa Cruz, respectively. My folks have one and love it, but I’ve found most people still complain because they “don’t need that big if a truck” but then you mention towing/hauling capacity and they say “well why can’t it just tow something small like an F150 does? I’m not trying to get a dually but if I didn’t want to do X then I’d just get a car!” I suspect most people’s “truck needs” would be accommodated but fomo and marketing leads buyers astray even when they already know what they want. Or they’re fickle and just need something to complain about.
And yet in the same breath we often point out that prison time doesn’t rehabilitate (think petty crime). I think realistic fines to individuals AND companies that are more than “cost of doing business,” as well as blacklisting the (undoubtedly several) individals responsible from being able to hold that level of power in an industry, not just the company, then there may be a reasonable deterrent, and it won’t be a languishing burden on tax payers to put these guys up in dressed up 4 star hotels.
Not even gonna name drop… 😥
They are usually responsible for planning, generating, and running regular project team meetings. So they get people together but sometimes have done no work since the last meeting they held, so when someone has a reasonable issue that doesn’t meet with the pre done schedule 5 years ago when the project was first instigated, they have super Pikachu face and get mad at the actual doers because they don’t get to just report “on schedule” to their bosses. They could be called the landlords ofthe project based on the sentiment of the greater Lemmy community.
Watering down the remaining 7-in-1 shower product because they can’t afford to replenish supplies because the price of everything is too damn high.
Definitely Dewey Decimal System
Also, we had a box that would let you use channels 3 OR 4, but 4 either didn’t work as well or had a more useful content on it (i.e, the local FOX network).
Clock app, make a 30 minute timer, reset when it goes off. Why do you need a whole app for that?
Yo where can I get that split keyboard and is it QMK?
As a Titans fan I can say with all authority this is totally accurate game footage.
Ah, thanks for the explanation. I too misunderstood the inflection.
Mate is literally a cultural equivalent to “dude”
You could argue “adultery” in a more general sense (or maybe in the original context outside of English, I’m not sure) could contain the modern definition as well as the general idea of “being with someone who is not your spouse”.
