Reminds me of someone else promising "full self driving" any day now.

I had one of the affected models. I filled out the recall form yesterday, and they emailed me this morning to let me know the replacement has been sent. They are pretty good about standing behind their products

Make that three! I'd vote for a modern equivalent, too.

It's not hard copy, but you might like The Autopian (ex-Jalopniks David Tracy and Jason Torchinsky are among the editors/writers/founders).

I would love to see the Chicago Symphony Orchestra play the classical music in "What's Opera, Doc?" and other Looney Tunes classics. Saw them do that with The Godfather and a couple other full-length films which was great.

This reminds me of the old FedEx Zapmail service they had in the 80s. They didn't get much traction and the service was shut down after 2 years at great expense.

Worked for Whittman-Hart, which merged with USWeb. Heard Firmage wasn't part of it because of his belief in space aliens. Good to finally get the whole story.

Take a look at Scorpion Capital.

I'm Polish-Irish-Czech, and my dad used to make poppyseed coffee cake. When I lived in Chicago, I'd often get poppyseed rolls made by local Polish bakeries. I miss those, that kind of food is hard to find around here, but at least I can get locally-made pierogi.

STIR/SHAKEN isn't helping much either. The carriers are all about that sweet, sweet revenue...

Voice phishers are looking for people to say "yes" and read numbers. Just say no!

Any time you get a message purporting to be from the USPS saying there's a delivery problem and you need to pay a small fee to fix it, it's a scam. Block and report.

At the time, I was a punk working in a great record store in the Western suburbs of Chicago (shout out to Johnny B Goode Records & Stuff!). I sent a number of promo disco records we'd received to Disco Demolition Night. I still laugh about how it turned out... Those were the days.

Elecom makes a nice left handed trackball. Employers don't often provide ThinkPads, so I usually use a standard mouse on the left side without swapping the buttons.

They use it for tonsillectomies. It was the second entry on the itemized bill.

This is not the AT&T Judge Harry Greene broke up. This AT&T is a roll up of most of the RBOCs the breakup created.

JR Central is partnering with the people that want to build a bullet train from Dallas to Houston. We'll see if it ever happens. I'm hoping so!

You can get the powdered Pocari Sweat mix (2 x 10L bags) from Amazon.

I wonder what Bezos's rationale was behind hiring all these British right wingers. Does anyone believe taking the Post in that direction is really going to steer that crowd away from Fox "News"?

Same here.

I would like to volunteer as well, but it would have to be outside of home and school since I live in Texas. I would like to help young people learn to cope with being LGBTQ+, ADD, and other things, but I don't think parents would appreciate it.

Learned helplessness can also afflict adults, especially those who are not accustomed to dealing with computers. I get that quite a bit, and it's not just older people. Young people who have only used tablets, phones, and Chromebooks also are affected. YMMV

Maybe in school. I was bullied by a supervisor at a previous job. Didn't want to get fired for insubordination.

Airlines like Spirit and Frontier are just the "bus fare". Want anything extra, like a carry on bag? You'll have to pay for it. Learned my lesson, will just book Southwest or similar next time.

Driving in Texas is hellish at best.

Daiso is great in the US, although they've raised prices from $1.25 to $1.75. Still a far better value than Dollar Tree and the like.

Even further than that. In 1978, we used a TI Silent 700 terminal connected to a PDP-11 so we could learn BASIC.

That building was the old Brach's Candy factory. I used to pass it on the Metra daily.

In Chicago, it's always good to rinse the salt off your car to prevent rust. I recall doing this several times during many winters there. Never had a problem with rust on any car I owned.

^This. A lot of people, myself included, got very upset with T-Mobile's decision to take away the autopay discount of $5 per line unless you gave them your credit card or bank account number. I changed carriers after they decided they wanted to take away grandfathered rate plans and reasssign customers to the latest, high-priced plans with all kinds of unnecessary stuff added.
