I’d be surprised if they had net positive income on Tribes 3. A lot of veteran gamers of the series saw who was really running development and decided to stay away. Once bitten, twice shy. The writing was on the wall that it was a dead game back in June.

The requirements shaped the design. They wanted mail carriers to be able to stand up in the cargo area without having to bend over → tall cargo area and tall doors. High visibility → a large windshield. Along with the options of a BEV or ICE powertrain → duckbill front.

Personally, I think it’s iconic and obviously less of a deathtrap vs the current vehicles.

Yeah, I would mostly agree. The poll peaks in 2020 when there was COVID, a virus that was putting people in the hospital on ventilators and had a mortality rate we hadn’t experienced for over a century. Along with a healthcare system barely holding on, lockdowns, masking, social distancing, a major recession, people losing their jobs, kids going back to school with all that chaos, and in the middle of one of the most chaotic and stressful presidential elections in history. BUT 55% of people were better off in 2020. Hmm…

Yeah, I remember this one too. Going back and reading one of the articles from when it happened, and I just don’t have words for it.

Also a sovereign citizen.

OP said die and I’m going to take him at his word 😉

So you want to die in a burning boat‽ While some countries in Europe allow for assisted suicide, I don’t think any allow for self immolation while at sea.

Now if you’re looking for a viking funeral procession after your death, I would think environmental regulations would be the biggest hurdle.

Must have been all that red meat

At one point, an officer walked into an MRI room, past a sign warning that metal was prohibited inside, with his rifle “dangling… in his right hand, with an unsecured strap,” the lawsuit said.

Apple has a long history of working against right to repair and third party repair shops. This includes making it difficult for third parties to source the parts needed and changing the designs to requiring part pairing in the name of security. It got to the point where repair shops were buying broken Apple products so they could hopefully source the parts needed.

Looking through what they provided now, it’s basic stuff any third party repair shop could do if they could source the parts. It’s useful. However good electronic technicians can go beyond that and do board level repairs. But that requires schematics and diagrams. A lot of times they would have to get those through other parties who in turn got them through less than official means or violated NDAs.

Guess what Apple isn’t providing? Board level information. This is just doing the minimum the law requires them to do.

It’s a quirk in Georgia’s law where cruelty to children and their death gets those charges upgraded to murder 2.

Sounds like an annoyatron or a clone. A tiny device that randomly beeps with a time interval just long enough to be hard to find and annoying. They’ve been around for a couple decades.

Yep, this is the judge that owns Tesla stocks and refused to recuse himself.

And just like Taco Bell when something goes bad you get to deal with all the diarrhea.

But seriously, shouldn’t this be in !programminghumor@lemmy.world and not technology?

I disagree with that. I’ve taken the cheap chinese noodles with the nasty sauce packet and have turned that into good food by adding fresh veggies and a little bit of meat. Any food can be good food, but it takes time, creativity, and effort.

Turkey is a bit of a problem because the birds have been bred to have giant breasts and can’t even reproduce on their own. You pretty much have to dry brine them to get decent flavor. To always get a moist bird, use a meat thermometer. Also, go for the dark meat. It’s always better than the light meat.

Fresh cranberry sauce is awesome. Keyword being fresh. It’s just cranberries, sugar, and little bit of water that you cook down for about 10-20 minutes. Make it the night before then spread that on some fresh cornbread.

Stuffing depends on the aromatics. Add some sauted onion and celery then some mushrooms or cooked italian sausage. And one more thing: cook the bread in a lot of butter.

Pumpkin pie tends to be on the dense side and pumpkin by itself doesn’t have much flavor. Most of what we think of as pumpkin pie flavor comes from the spices: cinnamon, nutmeg, and a tiny bit of ground ginger. Homemade is better, but a lot of work. It requires roasting pumpkin, making the pie crust from scratch, and then essentially making a pumpkin custard for the filling. Worth doing at least once. It comes out nice and light instead of dense like the canned and premade stuff.

Casserole is always hit or miss. Aunt Caroline’s recipe is either good or a nightmare.

Mash potatoes, it depends on how you dress them up. You can rice them with some cream and butter to make them nice and smooth. Or use red potatoes for something more rustic along with some cheddar cheese or bacon.

I’ve never heard of mac and cheese for thanksgiving. There are so many better dishes that can be made. Who’s cooking your thanksgiving dinner? Do they even know how to cook? And where’s the gravy? You can make a nice rich gravy from the turkey drippings.

Always is. Accuse your enemies of that which you are guilty of.
