  • Also, one-offs aren't really allowed outside of r&d. Everything has to have at least one piece in a batch go through testing, including destructive.

  • If you hit refresh right after the ad starts, you can start the actual video without watching the ad.

    This works really well when you get the bad luck of an unskippable one.

  • Working around a few of them, the biggest factor I can tell is that they've been sheltered and groomed their whole life to think that way. Anything else would just seem foreign. (Like trying to convince a Christian that Jesus wasn't white, if he was ever real)

    Since a lot of these beliefs are so ingrained into their psyche, an existential crisis, like what he may be experiencing, is likely one of the few things that can work.

  • I'm on the side that the feud was all just for theatre

  • Uhh, whoosh?

    It's not AI (It's actually older) and this actual comic series has been the newspapers for years.

    This is just the humor of the series, where the point of this joke is that the customer is so bad at math that he grabs two math books instead of just the one then gets overcharged without noticing.

  • I can see closing up non-serviceable components like an airbag module or ECU, like in place of rivets or potting, as it can make forensics easier in a failure. But, people swap out car seats all the time, and even sometimes the steering wheel too.

    Also, for the first 5 or 10 years. No. You may not normally need to touch those parts, but as the car ages and wears, those parts may need to get swapped or removed to get at the failing part. (Similar to how you need to pull the entire engine just to change the water pump on some Toyotas)

    Just because the parts aren't on the roster of regular maintenance, doesn't mean that an experienced DIYer wouldn't want to swap the part themselves for whatever reason somewhere down the road.

  • And it'll just be different size spanner-type heads, more durable ones likely using the bi-metal ones (like in the second pic)

  • My first thought.

    I really wanna know how many times the fire brigade was called to remove a drunk person from that

  • Oh yes

  • We're all just different breeds. And just like dogs and cats, keeping a heritage unnaturally pure tends to bring a host of bad health issues and vulnerabilities.

  • Same with anything sold/licensed by Hersheys (includes Cadbury in the US) or Mars.

  • Because she wants to feel like one of those movie stars.

    (Her vanity knows no end)

  • Yeah, people have been getting a bit touchy and on occasion misinterpret an innocuous comment as an attack.

  • I think a sizeable factor for the disdain is that EDC-bro that everyone knows who use their knife for everything even when the proper tool is right next to them. Or even the ones who carry an assault-type knife (like a karambit) holstered on their belt just for showing it off.

    Those specific people sorta remind me of those fedora-bros where they think of it as an status symbol.

  • Uhh... They mentioned a toddler to enforce the argument that a knife, regardless of size, still carries an inherent risk of cutting oneself.
