I don’t think this is all that unpopular of an opinion. It was one of the biggest complaints I saw when the design was first shown. There’s actually a number of trucks I’ve seen out there that aren’t trucks in my opinion, as they can’t just backup and get loaded with whatever to haul off. I use my SUV more as a truck by just dropping the seats than some of these designer minibed raised chassis monstrosities could.
Every vote is important.

So a game of Hangman is the next level to compare AI to humans, above the Turing test.
Why didn’t they just make one Clear and make another Backspace? The concept of erasing the last character had been in typewriters for a while by then, and this is far more obvious. Maybe erasing a single digit in earlier software/hardware was much harder than just clearing it all?
Even in context this is disturbing.
Reminded me of the line: “What do we call alternative medicine that works? Medicine.”
It’s not hiding when it’s supposed to be a secret. A woman voting her own beliefs should be the first step out of that kind of controlling relationship.
Pretty useless without the DHD. Must be meant as a one way dumping gate to send people to Ohio.
One missing period created a wonderful visual.
Nvidia Riva TNT, because the onboard graphics were only going to play EverQuest (beta) and Rogue Squadron like a painful slideshow, if at all.
If you’re doing more than just voting and forgetting, then the message wasn’t about you. I won’t stop asking people what else they’ve done, because how else is awareness of the need of democracy and public involvement supposed to be spread?
If I ever run across an arcade I will first search out for a Galaga to play. Usually is one, which says something. No, I’m not as good as I used to be, but it’s okay. I can lose even a few levels in of brief play and still feel I had fun.
Vote anyway if anyone hasn’t yet. Because no matter if it’s close, a few points, or a sweep Trump is already planning on calling it rigged (he already has) and rallying his supporters to do who knows what. It’s going to be a long few months, maybe more.
Also, don’t forget that voting just gets a preferred candidate into office, you still have to remind and pressure them on topics you feel important, regularly. I think this is really where America fails as a representative democracy, most people don’t follow up on what they were all hyped up about during an election.
There’s always been a polarity even at the start. Smaller one issue groups would end up merging with one of the major ones. It has gotten far worse though, ironically in the age of information where people should be able to discuss and learn about topics better. I think we broke something.
If someone tells me they voted third party, I just tell them that’s great and ask what they’re going to do now. Never get much of an answer.
Wow, Greta uses her recognition to point out the whole thing is a mess and there’s no great choices, and more importantly it’s up to people to not quit after their vote and actively and continuously push for change…
And already there’s posters making fun of her. Maybe they just read the headline and not the full text…as per internet tradition.
Handwaving tech and physics is easy. I’m not touching linguistics, other than to say I don’t think you can explain it away. Languages are hard, even if by some magic all species everywhere have some common base, which I doubt.
It’s unAmerican to not want everyone to have their chance to vote. Another example of how the Republican party hates people in general. It gets in their way of power.
Because that’s the punchline. Only when he says it, he has a straight face. He should do standup.
My default now is to assume it’s real. Haven’t been wrong lately.
