August is a little tricky (floral shirt?), but there are plenty of good options after that.

I’d fight that. Surely there’s a fourth amendment argument there (e.g. I need it to be high enough that police looking over it would constitute an illegal search.

We have one with a giant rooster. Still debating it, but I’m worried my SO would kill me if I brought it home.

What’s the citation for? What business is it of theirs how you decorate your property?

I’d understand if if was an HOA or you had something pornographic on display, but a Valentine skeleton seems absolutely harmless.

I hope you find it.

I’ll drink to that.

Yup, “drive through” is an instruction, “drive-thru” is a noun. So you’ll drive through the drive-thru.

Yup, esp since it’s often written on the pavement.

Yup, doughnut if you’re being fancy, donut if it’s some trash from the grocery store.

Rather, less stupid cars.

Well, it could cause you to die, but that’s more of an affiliation thing.

Gotta bump up that “$/sub” metric!

We pay for an ad-free tier and our downloads “expired” when we were in the middle of nowhere. They still existed on our device and on the service, we just couldn’t play them.

That got my wife annoyed enough that I think I can convince her to just buy DVDs again. $15/month is 1-2 DVDs/month, and that’s about what we watch anyway. We won’t get Netflix originals, but that’s fine with me. If we ever need any of those, we can just binge for a month.

Yup, and that’s when I stopped buying DVDs and pirating. But with standard without ads being ~$15 with less selection, guess what I’ve gone back to doing?

Fair. I just generally don’t want to goof off in a game, I want a bit of substance. When I wanted a GTA-like game and Rockstar hadn’t made one for a while, I played through the Saints Row series. Yeah, it’s kind of fun to go cause mayhem, but I get tired of that after ~15 min or so.

If that’s what you’re looking for, GTA V is pretty decent.

Them’s rookie numbers.

At the same time?

You absolutely can!

This hits me right in the DIY NAS.

That depends on how easy it is to deal with the explosion when it happens. The issue with lithium-ion is that they can’t just be smothered like an ICE fire, so there’s really nothing you can do once it starts. Also, ICEs don’t spontaneously catch fire when parked in your garage, they tend to catch fire when you’re driving, which means you’re immediately aware when it starts to happen.

An EV catching fire while it charges at night is extra scary because I’m likely to be asleep, and therefore I’ll have a smaller chance to react properly (especially if I need to run up/down stairs to round up small children). So even if it’s less likely, it’s potentially worse because I’m less likely to be able to get away from it safely.

I don’t know much about what a practical hydrogen failure looks like, but my understanding is that it’s quite violent. But maybe they have controls around that now, idk.
