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.
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…
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,…
Voice phishers are looking for people to say "yes" and read numbers. Just say no!
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.…
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.
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.
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,…
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.
Almost makes me long for the days of Earl Scheib's "I'll paint any car any color, no ups and no extras".
Personally, I despise cutesy error messages that try to make the program sound more human. "Oops, we're sorry this happened! Would you like a nice cup of hot cocoa while we try and figure out what happened? Or should I…
