<p>PREFACE:  I am politically neutral.  You can all fight it out for yourselves, it's fun to watch.<p>> I think TikTok is filling a void for Democrat messaging that Republicans/Conservatives have ie: Fox, conservative youtubers, breitbart, etc. The left is doesn't have this<p>Fox/Breitbart -> The left has plenty of media outlets that pitch their side, like CNN.<p>Conservative Youtubers -> There's not a single liberal/democrat Youtuber?  weird...<p>Not to mention that, up until it started imploding, Twitter (and Facebook to an extent) were both considered heavily left-leaning if not outright liberal.  Saying that "the left doesn't have a way to get their message out" just feels outright dishonest to say.<p>*EDIT:*  I had a long conversation with a good friend of mine about the distinctions between "liberal" and "left" here.  I acknowledge that I was make an incorrect (and commonly dangerous) equivalence between the two of them, which makes the claim of "left" not having as much media outlet more true (though I would still argue that it's certainly not to the extreme extent suggested by the parent).</p>

<p>I fully agree with this advice as to a way to communicate your actual feelings in a sentence.   Emojis don't work here, but the difference between<p>"I have no idea what I'm doing... :D"<p>and<p>"I have no idea what I'm doing... :("<p>is a large one, and having that to communicate it is quite handy.<p>THAT SAID, to @ccakes -- while I agree with your statement, it unfortunately doesn't help the OP.  They specifically said that they have a problem with INTERPRETING comments in the worst possible light.  The solution for that will not be to use more emojis themselves -- they would need their coworkers to do so.</p>

<p>I mean this as a genuine question (not an indictment), and as a complete blockchain/crypto noob who has just been a spectator:<p>Why is this the case?  Isn't this like one of the best use cases of the blockchain in crypto?  Why would they not utilize the technology to prevent this exact thing from happening?  Are there tradeoffs I'm not aware of?</p>

<p>> this is why Elon told Twitter engineers to print their code - he's a boomer programmer who grew up in this era when that really was how you read and reviewed code<p>Just to clear up a misconception:  Elon Musk isn't and never was a programmer.  He never went to school for it, never had a job in it, and his wikipedia mentions nothing about even having the ability to code.  He at one point needed some of his devs' help running a Python program.  His reasons for having them print out the code at Twitter are almost certainly not due to "that's how it used to be".<p>TO BE CLEAR:  This comment isn't a dig at Elon.  I personally dislike him, but this fact about him doesn't make him a worse person.  Just clearing up an obvious misconception that @yodon has about him.</p>

<p>The problem here I think is that you miss the original point of the top-level parent.  They weren't claiming that EVs emit more CO2 from driving, but from _manufacturing_.<p>Whether or not this claim is true I can't say for sure, because nobody on either side of this discussion in this thread has provided links/proof to back up/refute these claims, so it's just a bunch of people throwing numbers at each other with no context.</p>

<p>> The feedback the agency is seeking is limited to safety considerations.
Matters "such as how the dimensions of passenger seats might relate to passenger comfort or convenience" are not part of its request for comments, the FAA said in its Federal Register notice.<p>This title feels like some real clickbait to get people to think they can rant about how small/bad the seats are now.  Suggest changing title to be more clear @dang</p>

<p>A bit simplified on both parts -- a fish CAN leave too, and many do, by just ripping their mouth open to remove the hook by wriggling enough.<p>For people on Gitlab, your point about "downloading the code and moving on" really only applies to the simplest point of use on Gitlab.  Anybody using Gitlab's CI/CD pipelines has everything in their repo(s) fully setup only for that, and not for other CI/CD offerings.  Moving their stuff is often much much much more work than "just download your code", and sometimes with time/money constraints, completely infeasible in the short term.</p>

<p>Seems like you're outside the US, so I can share some fun little garage facts:<p>(context:  I live in the american quintessential "suburbs", cul-de-sac and all.)<p>Around my parts, garages are ironically barely, if EVER, used for the cars!  Something that surprised us when we moved here.  Many houses around here are good examples of american excess;  I've seen a couple houses with like between 4-6 cars(!) and all of them are just parked in the driveway (remember with all that space we also have room for like 6-8 cars in a driveway parked 2-by-2 behind each other).  People just park all ("all" lol) their cars in the driveway, and then the garage is used for any number of things:
- "shops" for wood/metalworking, or crafts
- table/chairs for those "garage startups"
- giant freezers for meats/breads/etc for larger families
- massive amounts of STUFF -- I've seen way too many garages here that are just filled with hoarder-levels of STUFF.  It's disturbing.<p>Personally, our garage is a 2-car garage, and we put our 1 car in there, and I use the rest for my little hobbyist carpentry area.  Not enough space for a full workshop, but when I need more room I pull the car out to the driveway for a bit, then put things away and pull the car back in when I'm finished.  That works well enough for me for now.<p>American suburbs are a bizarre place for sure.  Hope that clears some stuff up!</p>

<p>In the video, they call out that it's "about 5 or 6 hundred square feet".  An average 2 car garage is ~360 square feet, so it'd definitely closer to a 3-4 car garage.</p>

<p>Oh haha I assumed windows since you said you used to be on linux, and Mac doesn't have an Alt key!  My mistake.  Well at the very least it seems there are FF plugins that allow you to modify shortcuts, so you could probably rebind Option+D to the same control as Cmd+L/F6 and that might work.</p>
