  • Are there any USB cables that last a reasonable length of time?

  • That legit blows my mind. I'm not sure I've had a phone charging cable be effective for more than a year before I started having to jiggle it while standing on one leg facing East.

  • I think I'll try some of these braided cables with the magnetic bit someone was talking about. Thanks!

  • Ooooooh, this seems like a game changer. Apparently I am a middle aged child when it comes to cord removal.

  • Ha, yeah I just figured phonea came with a shitty usb does that starts getting trickier to charge over months etc.

  • I will try to keep them looser in future! I just find over time, I have to get increasingly careful with plugging them into the phone just right or it won't charge etc.

  • What piece(s) of pop media have you not consumed that people would think you weird for not having consumed yet?

    Jump

  • Agreed.

  • Tesla’s 2024 financial results are out—and they’re terrible

  • That but also removing green subsidies helps Tesla as it's further ahead than other electric car rivals. Also, less safety regulations likely brings it closer to fully autonomous driving.

  • Two sides of the same shit coin

  • Not having tik tok or instagram seems to count? I dunno if wildly popular social media counts though.

  • Why are there so few female taxi drivers?

    Jump

  • Jesus! At first I thought that was a bit of an oexaggeration (and I think it is a little bit, as how much of his additional weight is muscle etc) but I'm decently muscled and am slightly less than 30% his weight without much body fat.

    Wow. That would be terrifying. I absolutely would not hang out in a lot of the sketchy areas I love.

    Edit: Checked, our height difference and the average height difference for North American men n women is also pretty similar. That's a wildly, and increasingly appropriate image!

  • Fair. Admittedly, teenagers I think are some of the most dangerous drivers around (at least, God knows I was) so I suppose any job that disproportionately hired them...

    Jump

  • Really? That seems odd just because there are so mamy jobs that involve driving under time constrains...

  • One of those lines that really stuck with me for awhile was True Detective Season 2.

    "The fundamental difference between the sexes is that one of them can kill the other with their bare hands."

    Never had it laid so bare for me before but on average, that's probably true which must be fucking terrifying. As a guy I've been in a handful of scraps but if I'd weighed 30% less and had a lot less muscle, those would have been really dangerous. (Except for that one kid who punched my jaw so weakly and drunkenly off target that all I could do was howl with laughter.)

  • I wonder... I remember reading a scientific article (or looking at a headline in the grocery checkout line, donn't remember which - Norm Macdonald) that noted that pizza delivery was one of the most dangerous jobs in America.

    Presumably Uber mitigates some of that risk by having more info about their customers?

  • Why are there so few female taxi drivers?

    Jump

  • I'm equally confused. Maybe it's the confined bit? But it's not like having to flee your vehicle is ideal or even always possible. And as far as I know, taxis don't have ejector seats for the driver OR passengers (thanks Obama.)

    Jump

  • I don't know a lot of women clamoring to be in a confined space with however many random guys by themselves...
