My bad on misabbreviating Super Sport, thanks for the correction. You are getting my point though, how did folks who actually fought the SS not feel weird driving a car labelled SS? I know I sure couldn’t without having some mixed feelings.

Yep, it’s just baffling how this cat that we backed further and further into the corner started acting out. Who could’ve seen that coming?

Yeah, it’s the same response I have to seeing it in other places too. Like for example American cars using the “SS” badging for their SuperSpeed variants of popular muscle car models. This goes back to like the sixtees too. Did none of the WW2 vets see an issue with that back then?

That was the point he jumped the shark for me. His Twitter takeover, constant placating of the right and efforts to get Trump re-elected had already pushed him from “edgelord memer and shitposter” to “alt-right nutcase”, but the salute immediately jumped him to “irredeemably evil monster”.

Yeah, I’d like to know too. Don’t leave us hanging OP.

Are we actually sure Trump isn’t just an LLM these days? The amount of complete fabrication and nonsense being spewed with such confidence is eerily reminiscent of AI hallucination.

What the absolute fuck. This has got to be the most ass-backward way of designing and implementing an inventory tracking system I have ever seen. They put no effort into the thinking behind “How do we replace employees walking the aisles regularly to check?” and went straight to “We need a robot to walk the aisles regularly” instead of any sort of sensible system that uses known shelf locations and sensors, for example. This is just really lazy on both the product designers and the supermarket chains.

I thought this was just a meme. Stores use AI robots for inventory now? What?

That’s not wrong, that’s working as expected. You didn’t think those companies paid Google to not advertise their business did you?

That’s a stretch. I don’t need to hate someone (including myself) to deem them less attractive or just not my type.

And I honestly think that’s what’s at play here - straight guys are into women and will judge their appearance differently from how they judge the appearance of other men.

Perhaps we don’t collectively look like we dress poorly and barely take care of ourselves to women, as they likely look at other aspects of our physical appearance than we do

Glad I am not the only one who thought of him right away.

I mean, the chiropractor is technically correct. You’ll say goodbye to a lot of things, including IBS.

Or, get this, the poster is a guy who genuinely feels like this.

I can’t deny that I (as a guy) have often wondered what women see in us, because to me the vast majority of men are poorly dressed on top of looking like we don’t take care of ourselves.

The thing I really hate is how this shorthand dismissal of people’s opinions based on their gender identity or sexuality has become normalized on social media. Yes, the joke is funny, but it’s saddening that this has become acceptable behavior as it encourages discrimination in the real world too. It also makes me wonder how we can continue to function as a society without deprogramming individuals that have gotten radicalized by online hate.

Now there’s a peace negotiation tactic everyone can get behind.

It would certainly explain the absurdist hellworld we appear to exist in today, that’s for sure.

Man do I love me some backhanded compliments like this one.

Now that brings back memories, old barrens chat was such an early 2000s meme-fest.

This is the kind of emotional intelligence that the vast majority of the population lack. And I am not sure how we can get more folks to get to this point.

While you are not wrong, the enemy of “perfect” should not be “good”.

In this case, presuming folks get into a new vehicle ever 4-5 years on average (I know the number is skewing more toward 6-7 in the US, but the point stands) having them switch to a car that has a slightly higher production impact but makes up for it after the first 1.5 years of ownership still means we achieve net lower emissions. There are numerous studies showing that EVs, even when used on less clean electricity sources, drastically reduce total lifetime emissions compared to combustion engine vehicles.

And let’s not forget that we can power EVs using renewable sources (solar, wind, hydro) which is just an economically and environmentally more sustainable practice than the single-use burning of a bunch of hydrocarbons.
