  • I used to live in Phoenix, Arizona and I don’t blame her for driving. They NEED better public transit there. On the occasion my wife and I couldn’t drive, it was often faster to walk for literal hours than take the bus. Phoenix is the definition of sprawl. It upset me so much when people were complaining about the city extending the light rail.

    All that said, this article is pure cope. She bought a truck that makes a political statement and is upset that people don’t like that it makes a political statement.




  • Windows 2000 sold as both a server OS and a workstation OS, but there was no home edition of 2000. There was also no professional version of Me. It would probably be more accurate to say there were two separate paths of evolution that converged with XP.

    NT -> 2000 -> XP
    98 -> ME -> XP

    Though, XP is built off of the NT kernel, so you could also argue that the 9X line ended with ME.


  • It’s also the way they make cheap LED headlights. The reflectors that direct the beam of light in your headlights expects the filament of the bulb to be in a very specific spot, but LED headlights often have a much wider area where the light emits from than the little filament that traditional headlights do. So when installed in cars that aren’t designed for LEDs, the beam pattern can be off and make the light shine at people instead of down toward the road.
