So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.

"He's a *businessman.* It's in his *best interest* to run this business safely."
Are you implying that some bozo might slap something rickety and unsafe together in his garage so he could leverage it into getting 6 people to give him a quarter million dollars each?
What would his motive be?
A big thank you again to everyone helping me celebrate the release of #IAMAI today ππ€ As requested, here are some pictures of Phantom and Owl endorsing the smol thing π₯Ήπ«ΆπΌ

bravo. Our rescue sees more than necessary number of dogs returned like your little guy.
I maintain "many owners suck, but not all. Rescue people make it right where ever possible."
My sister saw this on the wall at her Red Robin.
Props to the Robin! Now I want to take my son there.
So he's not quite as "alpha" as he claimed, then?
Wow, I find that so surprising. Really.
@ratcatcher @ScottSoCal @AlisonW @veroalgoz @kacey @actuallyautistic OK, so I had to look that up...
Same difference as "rubber", and the Dutch/Flemish version of "poepen".
@ScottSoCal In terms of resources needed, PHEVs are better than BEVs. We should have pushed them much harder a decade ago. Now we're out of time.
Anyone who can say "both parties are the same" is lying or willfully not seeing what's in front of their face.
If you are a white leftist and you talk βboth parties are the same they are both capitalistβ you will loose most of your black audience. I think it ought to be obvious that this isnβt because blackfolks love Democrats (in most cases, there is always someone being simple in any group) βno. itβs because the difference between the parties is material and obvious and these are unstable times.
When I hear such talk I wonder if the speaker is working on voter suppression.

The push for massive battery capacity is also to blame, when it really isn't necessary. I did a lot of my own, personal hand-wringing, and had almost talked myself into a plug-in hybrid, instead. Then I sat down and actually did the math. Any car with a range of 220 miles per charge will let me get back and forth to work for a week, and keep within the 80%-40% range recommended for battery health. I don't need any more than that.
I reminded her that *all* cars are getting bigger and heavier. So many people drive an SUV or a full-size truck, both of which just keep getting bigger and heavier every year. If people are concerned about cars being to heavy and dangerous, then let's make some regulations about *all cars* instead of just hand wringing about them new fangled EVs.

I prefer in-ear, because they're better at blocking noise, but I'm one of those people "gifted" with a lot of ear wax, so they can be a problem, and I have to clean the silicone tips every time I use them.
I heard from a few people on the spectrum that they hate everything in-ear, so now I wanna know from you, #ActuallyAutistic community, do you like or dislike in-ear headphones / ear plugs? Why?

Haven't watched it, but might since you brought it up. I'll have to wait for a time I think I have the energy.

re: complaining (in caps) about this fucking weather
And here I am, in SoCal, rejoicing in the 2nd sunny day of June, so far. It still won't break 70F, though.
complaining (in caps) about this fucking weather
I AM TIRED AND TOO WARM, I WAS PROMISED THUNDER STORMS, WHERE IS MY RAIN?????
The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) uncovered a Kyiv-based IT company that attempted to illegally transfer confidential information from the electronic systems of the frontline OVA to representatives of the Donetsk People's Republic (DNR) terrorist organization. The investigation revealed that the company had granted access to the databases to its colleagues from the temporarily occupied part of the region, who were posing as employees of the company's Donetsk branch. If successful, the offenders would have been able to regularly leak information from the OVA. The perpetrators of this crime face up to 15 years in prison with confiscation of property.
