Americans tend to buy the most car they think they can afford.

Hell, Americans buy the most car they can finagle a loan for, independent of if they can or can't actually afford it.

It wouldn't be surprising to find that a good portion of Tesla buyers are stuck in the trap where they owe so much on it that there's no way they could afford the hit to replace it, because they can barely make their payments now.

For real: I'm using a 38" ultra wide, and if you had told child me that a 38" monitor would be the smallest display in the house I'd have told you that you're full of shit.

She works at Google, not Yandex.

Though I'm sure Google could manage something equally mysterious.

If the past few years have taught me ANYTHING, it's that at least half the "gamers" are cheering the deportations on, so uh, yeah, anyway...

Yeah it's more hilarious: he's not hooking up with anyone, this is pure turkey baster going on.

Not that I disagree, but putting it in the hands of a foundation that's beholden to corporate money isn't exactly going to be the solution to "eventually messing up stuff".

Even if he did, how could you tell the difference between the holes dementia has made and the holes a worm would make?

You hope, anyways. Given how shit's going, I'd be entirely unsurprised if someone said that and actually meant it.

While that's true, "I'm sorry that you got upset at what I did" is in no way actually an apology or an admission that they might have been wrong, so.....

At least: I'm probably at 5x what the guns cost in training, ammo, gear, range fees, gas to and from the range (live in a city, so most local ranges don't exactly let you shoot 5.56) and so on.

Not the cheapest hobby if you're planning on actually serious about being able to use your guns if something makes that necessary.

Misskey is basically fine, but it's very oriented to it's creator's home country.

If you can use it cool, but if you can't they're not going to fix it for you.

Perfectly sane response, IMO.

The other forks you mention are because Firefish's devleoper decided to destroy his project, and vanish. And, of course, since that's not enough, he then dumped maintenance on someone who didn't really want maintenance responsibilities, and they completely killed the project.

So, those two are the "western" forks of Misskey, basically.
