I also got white text even after turning dark mode off and refreshing the page. I had to "select all" to read it.

Can neuralink give you cravings for specific foods and beverages (Coke) without even bothering with any media?

Later on though, that dollar won't buy you anywhere close to enough attorney time to keep you out of prison.

There were some really toxic ones used in early supercomputer days.

Mineral oil is nonconductive. Some people even do aquarium builds with the whole mobo and gpu immersed in mineral oil. I don't think mineral oil is used in loop coolers though.

These accident rates are normalized to billion miles driven. So long roadtrip highway miles vs city commute is going to be a major bias in these numbers. My take is that Tesla is fairly unique in that their models are heavily concentrated as a commuter car in dense urban areas, whereas other brands have more general use.

The biggest correlation will be to use case. These figures are normalized to billion miles driven. That means that any models that are commonly used for long relatively safe road trips on the highway are going to have lower numbers. So any vehicle that is largely selected to being a commuter car in heavy city traffic is going to have a higher fatality number than models that are used more generally.

Tesla does seem to have higher fatality rates than other bev's in general. So I do think there's still something to be said about if their "full self driving" leads to overconfidence or if their acceleration is too agressive for the commutes they frequent. This study won't elucidate causes though and anyone stating a cause is speculating.

Getting hit on at the polls is a great way to make voting even more uncomfortable.

Best to stick to polite chit chat, and otherwise avoid bothering people when they're voting.

Step 1: clean out the lint from the charging port

Step 2: make sure you actually got all the lint out and there isn't any hiding to the side.

~~The sim ejector pin that used to come with phones can sometimes just barely fit between the center blade and connector housing. Otherwise a paperclip with a slight hook bent into the end can work well.~~ Flosspicks work well to dig out the lint.

Also consider getting a wireless charger for nightly charging if your phone supports it.

The crack in the drawer front is really the icing on the cake here.

In case anyone seriously considers doing something like this, you should know that vandalizing or removing political yardsigns is a misdemeanor in every state and can carry fines of $1000 and up to 90 days in jail per sign.

Sharing the meme is pefectly legal though.
