Sure it’s whatever works out cheapest for them :-\

Up at the firehouse it’s just streaming off the TV’s built in apk. Not worth it enough for me to like hook up a laptop and screen share for just a subtitle offset.

Yeah. I know vlc and a lot of video players have the option. But that’s not gonna be a thing when I’m up at work. Normally I don’t have subs on when I’m at home unless it’s a foreign language.

That’s a great idea. Is there an option to do that on Netflix?

I just can’t have it on for comedies. It ruins the timing of jokes and I can’t keep myself from not subconsciously reading them. Years of watching fan made anime subs back 20+ years ago coerced me into reading subs really damned quickly.

Design is pretty far off from the orecks.

But the vacuum was clearly a clone of a late 70’s Kirby or Royal vacuum cleaner.

The kids are still dumb?

Even if you’re being PC as can be; it was PRE transition dress. She’ll be the 2nd girl to wear it. The first one’s… dead.

Does it not? I never get dm’d. Lol

Haven’t tried summit. Thunder is pretty close to a clone of what I was using on reddit before the api fiasco they had and I bailed. Relay for reddit.

I’ve been using “Thunder” and so far it’s done a pretty wonderful job of things. Very easy to view and scroll on a phone. A lot of options you can set and customize.

In 1900 there were more electric vehicles in the US than gas vehicles.

Big oil won out back then, and again when it eliminated trolleys around the 1930’s, and it’s keeping its grip even now.

US options under $35,000 pretty much suck in the US for EVs. They aren’t all that great under $50k.

I wouldn’t have bought one yet regardless. They’re only just now putting batteries into production that I believe will last 20 years without needing replaced. I’m keeping my old hybrid until those batteries ramp up in production and make it to the US if they ever become affordable here.

I’m not anti solar, dude. I HAVE solar. Solar is a great thing. I just don’t believe it is the end all be all of power creation. I think fusion should be better. Smaller footprint. Safe, short term radioactive waste left, no battery storage needed, creates power 24 hours a day instead of 10 hours if it’s sunny. Honestly, it’s kind of a no brainer. Especially for urban areas\densely packed cities.

Stay off trying to debate ev vs ice over this. When all the vehicles are ev, you’re going to need a LOT more solar panels and batteries to keep up. A whole lot more.

As for the creation of nuclear waste from fusion; it doesn’t make radioactive waste like fission, it makes less and what it makes has a much, much, shorter half life.

Plus, imagine re-blanketing the planet in all those solar panels in a 30 year loop as they age out. Solar is great for local stuff and your house. Fusion will be the ultimate energy source, so long as it can be perfected.

First, that’s funny, cause fusion is the energy of the sun.

But secondly: Solar takes a LOT of real estate and materials up. Along with the batteries for storage. Then to completely be able to rely on solar, you’d have to have many more panels and battery storage than just enough for a couple days worth of power. Clouds and storms and snow and whatnot.

It would take around 15,000 acres worth of solar panels to create the same amount of power as a fusion reactor plant on 50 acres.

And the plant can do it 24\7

There are two 😻 😻 in this picture.

If they get fusion accomplished, solar will be a joke.

Pretty much be safe and unlimited energy with a much, much smaller footprint than solar and no need to rely on battery storage.

Solar will be ok at a personal level, but fusion would be all encompassing.

I use the the apk called “Thunder” and it does a fantastic job. Much better than just using the website of here or reddit.

Oh, man. That blurry thumbnail on my phone screen looked like a naked woman from the waist up, wearing pasties or something.

I felt I was being pretty specific about “the most popular”. If the most popular instance is dead, we got problems.
