Grab a Camaro while you can! It fits the bill all for under $30k.

I'd say it entirely depends on what stuff you're looking for. I'd pass on something like a Denali because the electronics and added trim pieces seem to be the most unreliable parts. The powertrain will be fine.

If anything my personal preference would be a mid-trimmed spec that skips things like a HUD, self driving, and leather trimmed door panels. Forward collision detection, a great sound system, and a platform that's mechanically dependable is my go-to.

Yeah this is the big one for me. I'm pretty convinced Secure Boot with a bring-your-own-key setup is the way. I understand Pop_OS doesn't want to invest the resources for this relatively niche market, but I'd love to switch if it allowed me to.

I'll counter this - the majority of the people in the US want to live somewhere and get around in the least difficult method. Due to decades of policymaking, that happens to be houses and cars.

It's very nearsighted to think our model is the penultimate in structuring society. Plenty of people are happy, fulfilled, and productive living in apartments & townhouses while taking trains to work.

That's okay - you're not the topic of this article. If you want to trim up and tone because it makes you happy, that's fantastic!

The criticism of "lose weight at any cost necessary" is that people who have been fat their entire lives will get yelled at to lose a significant percentage of their body weight, with very little care given to their actual health.

It's incredibly naive and destructive to assume all extremely fat people got that way because "they eat pizza all the time" and they should simply stop eating so much pizza to fix all of life's problems. If they can't lose the weight it's clearly because they're not trying hard enough.

That's why the discussion around this isn't changing the needle on America's weight gain (or most populations across the Earth). We focus on the thinness of the person before we focus on the health.

The key here is to encourage and promote healthy behaviors no matter what size you are, and to treat human beings like humans. I don't know why it became socially acceptable to treat others like absolute garbage in public, but it sure isn't going to help society become healthier.

How do we know it isn't going to help? Because we've been trying it for decades. Thin people yelling at fat people to lose weight in public does nothing. Time to focus on the systemic unhealthy issues our culture has and stop treating someone's fatness as their own, individual failure.

Nobody knows. Which is why it's colossally reckless to propose anything around this as a guaranteed solution, instead of a proposal that needs more research.

Tailscale and the people building it continue to blow me away. The ingenuity, reliability, polish, and speed of feature delivery are unparalleled in software.

I'm eager to get rid of needing DDNS and open ports just for web hooks. And I can "flatten" my stack by cutting out a reverse proxy / weird port forwarding stuff.

I think about this problem during my longer runs.

The HR stuff can be solved with a Bluetooth compatible chest strap, so I just need GPS and cellular (for emergencies).

I always have my phone in a little band around my arm or in a bag, so the watch itself just needs to display telemetry and manage inputs like start/stop, laps.

Thank you for bringing this up. The medical community's intense obsession with people's size and shape over their health causes a lot of misleading conclusions and misguided efforts.

If you walk into the doctor's office underweight and concerned about an issue you're having, the doctor doesn't put you on a strict fettuccine Alfredo and hamburger diet before treating you.

If you're overweight and concerned about an issue, you're far more likely to be told to lose weight and ignored.

Yeah, I feel like a lot of the outrage here is from the title, not the contents of the bill itself. I'm fully in favor of this effort.

The implication here is that Heroku is a standalone company with its full efforts being put toward the product.

The article should, in my opinion, focus on why Salesforce allowed Heroku to stagnate and grow uncompetitive.

Isn't Twitter already doing most of this? Why does he think he can do so much better?

+1 to the Framework as well. My only issue is the aforementioned sleep power draw, but they're a pretty smart group of folks. I'm pretty sure they'll figure this out in time.

I'm using Beeper! The app is solid, feature set meets my needs, and overall works quite well. It's still rough around the edges in a few spots. I'm waiting for the e2e protocol to have a self hosted bridge option, but once that's rolled out I'm a happy camper.

Some smart people are running this, that's for sure.

Given how soldiers then (and still, largely, now) were young men in their late teens and early 20s... this doesn't sound unreasonable at all. I could sit on the couch and burn that off. Add in setting up camp, digging trenches, hauling heavy equipment through mud and snow? Totally realistic.

I think about this more often than I probably should, and I've come to the same conclusion. We stand on mighty tall shoulders.

In my opinion, the real solution to this isn't to stuff as much driver assistance safety tech into all cars. It's to shift our society to not need cars for basic life necessities.

There are plenty of people who absolutely are not skilled at driving. They never will be. But they have to own a car to live in our society - thus, here we are.

Well, I'd say the existence of phh's ability to do this despite being in an environment that's unsupportive (or even hostile) is proof the model works. It would flourish with a regulatory bump keeping the manufacturers in check and unable to continue this poor support lifecycle.

This is about their profits. It's not about security, environmental responsibility, or the users. Regulatory authority exists to promote the interests of the people when the interests of the corporation's profits conflict with them.

Rational comes to mind

I have no issues with mine, except for the deep sleep one. The current prevailing theory on the forums suggests it's got something to do with PCIe Gen4 SSD firmware. The issue is widespread enough that I'm hopeful we'll see a fix soon enough.

Otherwise I'm extremely happy with mine!

There are literal quotes from governors, senators, and Congressional representatives talking about herd via infection. Suggesting seniors should do their part and die in order to save the economy.

Depending on where you live and who your political alignment is, the government is absolutely compelling you to get COVID.

I'm a huge fan of Tailscale, and in an effort to understand better everything they've done under the hood to make it work, I decided to redo my network with native WireGuard.

A) WireGuard works great when it's all set up! Config is a bear but it's a great protocol. Works well on lots of different devices in different usages - Android, laptops, desktops, headless servers, IoT.

B) I have even more respect for Tailscale for doing all of this in such a polished, seamless way.

Yeah, it's throwing 500s for me when I try to preorder.

I'm very excited for this laptop! It's not even the fact that they essentially moved the dongles inside the frame, it's that it feels like a laptop for people who want to open it up and replace stuff.

If you can figure out how to successfully market and sell "Eat less, eat quality" to American consumers while maintaining food supplier revenue growth, you'll solve a lot of problems.

My personal opinion is that we're so growth and value oriented - and that's fundamentally incompatible with a healthy diet.

Look at CostCo! They have an amazing amount of fresh, healthy meats and vegetables. But you're still walking out of that store with a twelve-pack of fish and the barrel of cheese puffs you saw on the way out. The majority of Americans simply lack the self control. The food production companies know this and take full advantage of it.

The 6700K has the same "most powerful CPU for its socket" situation going on. When I was looking to upgrade my 6600K, it was absurd how little extra it was to get a brand new Ryzen and motherboard compared to the 6700K.

Discord has since taken the stance of helping the mods, instead of permaban. I liked hearing that news earlier today.

They didn't start that way though. It wasn't until they were forced to play nice under regulatory action.

I'm not sure if this project will go any further, nor if iMessage works inside here, but this is an easier way forward:

Sure, that's fine. But Earth with humans living on it, providing a hospitable climate for us, has been cooler.

Just because something happened in Earth's past doesn't mean it's a good thing for us, nor is it a good idea for us to slingshot our way very quickly toward that balmy future.
