They know to fall in-line because a strong Republican Party helps all of them, from the president, all the way down the line to locally elected candidates.

Why can’t Democrats see this?

Oh god. Please aim higher than that. Not saying that Blender ain’t powerful, because it clearly is, but it’s UI is just plain shit. (Unless there have been some massive improvements over the last few years.)

Do they even know that??

Being good for a group of people is not the same as them knowing that you’ve been good for them. This is eternally where Democrats fall flat on their faces.

Home ownership in the US has hovered between low 60% and high 60% for around 6 decades now, but sure, let’s pretend that it ain’t possible no more because some people only want to post doom-and-gloom bullshit because they have ulterior motives.

This should be a wake up call to the DNC brass and to people on social media who have been blindly claiming that Republican voters are only rich white old men.

Not only is that stereotype simply not accurate, but this endless and insufferable focus from the Left of only chasing social issues is turning off a whole bunch of regular folks out there. Instead of championing causes that can help literally millions of people out there, time and time again the Left is worrying about bullshit like pronouns and drag queens. Dems are constantly assuming that just because someone is br9wn or black that they will agree with core Democratic party policies. The reality is that there are many folks from minority ethnic groups who are conservative or moderate and they see the Dems wasting all their time and effort on these fringe groups.

I always think of it like Pokemon. I want to collect them all.

But it’s hard to say goodbye!

The CEO said collecting vintage cars.

I know people aren’t going to believe this, but honestly, you don’t need to be a bazillionaire to collect vintage cars. It sure helps (a lot!!), but depending upon what he was collecting, you can buy certain classics for (relatively speaking) cheap.

The director at my old company was into classic cars too and we would shoot-the-shit all the time about his cars and mine.

I heard this years later by my former boss. He used to work for a company that just announced some lay-offs because work was slow. Right as the lay-offs were being announced the head of the company pulled into the lot with his new Porsche lease. It was terrible timing, but the corporate lease was up and the car was ordered months prior. Just made the owner look especially tone-deaf since the car came the same say as the lay-off announcement.

If 1 person has a question, then chances are good most people have that same question but are too afraid to ask it in front of everyone.

Amazing what Elon Musk single-handedly was able to accomplish.

Yup! That right there. You give a technical person a job that requires some level of “soft skills” and that is what you get.

You didn’t talk about how coffins are sold for many thousands of dollars when they are just cheap plywood boxes that shouldn’t cost more than a hundred bucks and that serve no purpose other than to decay as quickly as possible.

A lot of the same things you mention about game development are also apparent in open source software which is why it is usually so terrible. Someone that can program some complicated visuals for a 3D modeling program does not mean that same person actually does 3D modeling, which is why the interface for so many open source programs are abysmal.

Literally ANY hobby can seem boring to most people, but it wouldn’t be a hobby if people that got into it didn’t find it interesting as all hell.

give up

No. That’s not what companies do.

BMW and Mercedes were the “leaders” in milking their customers and thus they got the most bad press. All BMW is doing is waiting until more companies start doing this and the whole idea of subscriptions in the car business becomes normalized to the public.

Unless consumers continue to shun this concept and the press blasts these companies for trying to push this nonsense, it will make a comeback in the years to come. Unfortunately, I simply do not think consumers will look at their long-term interests. Its like telling gamers not to pre-order the hottest upcoming releases because it encourages companies to release buggy software… all the pleading in the world ends up falling on deaf ears. Same too, I believe, will happen in the car market.

Should have drawn a string of yawn in it’s mouth as it tries to trip the human.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Fuck Haley, but she is right about the nursing home part. But there is a fix that Americans don’t want to admit - their voting - or LACK OF voting - is what is keeping these elderly Senators in office. Of course she is an opportunist twat that is only saying this to try to hit at Biden indirectly by bringing up the age issue.

perfect

No way would that kid be frowning. If this was legitimately in the late 70s or early 80s that kid would be ecstatic with the graphics.
