Albo kiedy jesteś wybitnym polskim katolickim patryjotą i w ramach małego sabotażu chcesz na Ministerstwie Klimatu i Środowiska (po chuj akurat tam?) namalować symbol Polski Walczącej, ale nazywasz się Robert Bąkiewicz i jesteś też kompletnym debilem, więc z przyzwyczajenia wychodzi ci taki raczej schematyczny kutas z dziwną moszną...

@sohan While we're declaring our vehicular desires, I would be interested in an EV which was not "smart".

Battery, motor, and just the ('90s-era) typical doo-dads, if you please.

@christa a cargo e-bike could fit the bill! Also, I occasionally daydream of bidding on one of these keitora and importing from japan. they're so cute! (and probably have more usable bed space than a Ford F-150 Supercrew)

@sohan give me tiny electric truck plz. I just want to haul some dirt or wood and not burn 50 gallons of gas and risk running over a child because I don’t see them

Americans: please give us an affordable, practical, small EV with decent range

American car companies: here’s a $70,000 EV truck that weighs 6 tons lol

<zero EV trucks are sold>

American car companies: wow americans aren’t ready for EVs

I saw this online somewhere and I just had to recreate it. This is my coding happy place.

When I was a smartass computer nerd in the 80s and 90s, an eternal theme was people asking me for tech support help and me having to slowly, patiently explain to them that computers aren't scary, they're actually predictable, they won't explode or erase your data (unless you really make an effort), and they operate by simple (if somewhat arcane) rules. Edit > Cut, then click, then Edit > Paste. Save As. Use tabs, not spaces. Stuff like that. Maybe not easy, but simple, or at least consistent and learnable.

But that's not true anymore.

User interfaces lag. Text lies. Buttons don't click. Buttons don't even look like buttons! Panels pop up and obscure your workspace and you can't move or remove them -- a tiny floating x and a few horizontal lines is all you get. Mobile and web apps lose your draft text, refresh at whim, silently swallow errors, mysteriously move shit around when you're not looking, hide menus, bury options, don't respect or don't remember your chosen settings. Doing the same thing gives different results. The carefully researched PARC principles of human-computer interaction -- feedback, discoverabilty, affordances, consistency, personalization -- all that fundamental Don Norman shit -- have been completely discarded.

My tech support calls now are about me sadly explaining there's nothing I can do. Computers suck now. They run on superstition, not science. It's a real tragedy for humanity and I have no idea how to fix it.

How did I know the Polish book for children is actually an adaptation of an American book? They compare whales to football stadiums.

79 years ago today over 7,000 prisoners of the German Nazi camp #Auschwitz, including some 700 children, were liberated by the soldiers of the Soviet Army. 1,689 days of murder, pain, suffering, and humiliation were over. Today we all remember. We must keep remembering.
