It's a quirk of how Lemmy works that each instance has its own cached copies of every community that any user on that instance has subscribed to. So you can keep viewing old posts, even if the other instance hosting the community is temporarily down, or even doesn't exist anymore. It looks like the community was getting posted to almost daily until 18 days ago.

Apps exist that have you place the phone next to you on the mattress so the accelerometer can track your movement, while the mic tracks snoring and such.

I want this on a Trapper Keeper.

I think that's pretty close to the original comment that got downvoted. "Look at these ugly people..." is the common denominator, while they didn't call out the "...who are hypocrites" part.

Still feels like crude moral judgment on ugly people, which pops up in The Far Side too often. Another recent example, specifically how Larson draws the imbeciles' physical characteristics.

For sure, adherence to design language doesn't stop these things from being ridiculous.

This is what they took from us.

What's the joke, then?

Including, but not limited to, putting them in his mouth?

I don't know what's standard in sports communities, but are we cool with putting the score in the title? Someone might not want to know the outcome if they're still planning on watching it.

You're right, shape is also part of design language too, but I don't think being an EV prevented this from looking like a Ferrari. Body styling cues could make the connection, like the way a Cayenne is a SUV but still looks like what you think of as a Porche. It just seems like Ferrari didn't want to here, for one reason or another.

This wasn't designed to appeal to their current customers. Apparently some people like bland EVs and Ferrari want some of that money.

You're misunderstanding the term. Design language is subtle aesthetic cues, usually not functional, that remind you of other things they've made in the past. To suggest that the batteries dictate stuff like the shape of headlights doesn't make sense.

Eagle --> Eagles

 

Cover of the previous song, pretty much transforms it into something else.

 

Connection: a different kind of south

 

Sample source of previous Del track!

 

Connection: it's from the 1993 album Spilt Milk.

 

(Because: Weakerthans)

 

Connection: blowin'!

 

Connection: titles that plainly describe the contents of the song

Songs where the singer tells you exactly two things they have... no more, no less.

 

Something about days and whether or not they come, and if so, when they come.

("Animals" is the plural form of "Animal," while ghosts and spirits are kind of the same thing, I guess?)
