  • It a Polaris Ranger ATV. ATVs like that are super popular as car alternatives in rural areas of the US (one part fun and one part way more fuel efficient than driving your F150 to the local bar) and many places have been quickly legalizing these costs-as-much-as-a-car-but-is-five-times-as-deadly-to-occupants vehicles on public roads. Hilariously this one looks just as plastic and cheap as the ones I see driving around where I live, but we all know this one has been heavily upgraded and armored. Seriously just look how low its squatting from the weight!

  • I've seen the stop request signals in a lot of city buses where there's a stop every block or so. The bus will stop at bus stops where people are waiting, driving past empty bus stops, and if someone on the bus requests to stop it will stop at the next stop to let them off

  • Another idea I forgot to share is potentially just creating a worksheet that you can send to a printing company for paper forms. There's tons of printing companies which you can just provide a PDF or even just a logo and some info and get a custom pad of paper printed with that, so it'll have your logo and the fields you need then just rip off each sheet after it's written out.

    Otherwise if you really need this info digital, a spreadsheet or something in saltcorn is probably your best bet, but really you want to keep it simple at the scale you described (hence the custom printed pads of paper idea)

  • you know you’re dying but you’re hanging on to finish something and once that’s done you let go and die finally

    My wife worked in an assisted living facility for a while and this very much is a thing. Who knows what the mechanism is, but dying folks might hold on for as much as multiple days while at the brink of death until a specific relative can get there. I could absolutely see if he just let go after getting his affairs in order following the tour

  • My daughter has become obsessed with watching videos about the game Wobbly Life. There's one YouTuber who seems to post extremely frequently and advertises in every video for a subscription mod platform. She is now always asking about that mod platform, and the best way we can explain it to her (because she's 5 and simply too young to understand what mods even are, has zero room for any nuance on her world views etc.) is we just give her a hard-line "we do not pay for mods"

  • Web Monetization is a proposed standard in W3C, so an open standard

  • With Google fingerprint tracking, advertisers are selling hyper-targeted ads so a company buys only ads to show to the right 10,000 people over and over. It’s a literal dream for advertisers. But it’s a fucking dystopian nightmare for us.

    The hilarious thing is if you turn off your adblocker (or use a service/device that doesn't support it) and pay attention to what is being advertised to you, a lot of it is wildly irrelevant. They'd probably have better targeting by following the old TV Ad model than whatever the heck is happening with targeted web ads nowadays. My wife watches a lot of livestreams on twitch and any ads that aren't for a game just consistently seem to be wildly irrelevant despite being "targeted" or it's even worse when she's listening to Spotify and the ads are so consistently for products or services we would never have a desire to use

  • Or just a protocol like Web Monetization where you put an amount of money you choose into a pot on your browser and it's handed out to sites you visit based on how much time you spend on a given site, with options to denylist sites from payment as needed

  • Yeah at that rate if you actually should be involving a computer you're best off in a spreadsheet or maaaaybe a database frontend like saltcorn.
