I don’t think I’d call them assholes… more just shortsighted about the realities of selling an album, specifically in how you refer to the album both in speech and in writing.

Understood, but OP mentioned that he wanted something without a backup camera, so that’s why I was asking for clarification.

My favorite is plain old wordle.

This game is not fun. It’s not at all clear how the words relate, to the point where I got a top 10 word in the first 10 guesses, and it still took over 100 guesses to find the keyword.

I found it to be an unrewarding waste of time.

Can you clarify exactly what you mean by a “dumb car”? Do you just mean that it doesn’t have a screen in the cockpit? Or something else?

I think it depends on the airline. On my recent trip I noticed that American Airlines was charging to pick ANY seat. You could avoid the charge by letting it auto-assign the seat. Your idea to check in physically and request a certain seat MIGHT work, but you have to consider the timing. Most other passengers will have checked in online earlier and already have a seat assigned… If you wait until you arrive at the airport the seat selection might be limited. I like to check in online as early as possible so I can decide if I want to pay for a specific seat.

Good luck!

I’ve been a best man twice and both times I quoted from “The Prophet” by Kahlil Gibran, specifically the “On Love” section. “On Marriage” and “On Children” also have appropriate words for a wedding.

I think Seven falls in that category.

Your lack of outrage is outrageous. Is this a game to you?

I’ve had the same stainless steel Parker jotter for over 20 years. I love it.

I don’t think I understand… Is the contest which instance picks the best song? What are the criteria for judging “best”?

FYI, Lemmy apparently drops any text that looks like an html tag, even in an inline code block. grrr…

YES, this drives me nuts. It’s not like it’s hard to put autofocus="autofocus" into your input element.

I recommend checking out https://www.sleeplikethedead.com/ to help choose a mattress. It’s independent and free of advertisements.

It doesn’t bother me much. I think the only slightly annoying part is waiting for them to retrieve your car when you want to leave.

I’m not sure why the origin of the question should matter… if it’s getting engagement here, then it’s all good!

When it comes to work, I “Reply All” by default for this exact reason. The only time I modify recipients is if I’m starting a side conversation that not everybody needs to be involved in.

Broadcast emails, or emails asking for individual responses are the only time I would use “Reply”. However, I think in those circumstances the sender should be using “BCC” rather than “To” or “CC” in order to prevent annoying “Reply All” messages.

I don’t think that’s harmless…

Front door of your place to desk in the office seems like a good measurement, right?

If everything prior to you exiting your front door is identical between WFH and commuting, then yes. But if you spend more time getting ready to go into the office than you do for WFH, then I think you have to count that getting ready time as well.
