A bowl of coconut curry soup

A march snowstorm calls for a hot bowl of soup.

It... does? One of its marketing claims is that it'll have an optional hardtop and optional rear seats.

It's gotta make up for that freakishly warm and dry period in February.

Funnily enough, the aesthetic itself is impractical on this particular truck, though. It's all just wrapped vinyl over plastic, so it's got maybe a year or two of life if the truck gets regularly used for small truck tasks.

I think you can make fun of this pandering aesthetic without having to pretend a small, cheap, electric pickup truck would not be insanely practical to a large segment of people.

Never get tired of the snow and evergreen combo

one promise the cyberpunk future failed to deliver on is me being a courier for 512MB of highly sensitive corporate data contained in my brain zip drive while i wear a nice suit instead of being a courier for burritos in a 2012 hyundai

can't believe they're having donald glover lay eggs for the mocap for his role as yoshi in the new mario movie, i love an actor dedicated to his craft

Where on earth are you getting that from? Even at peak growing season it's more like 5 million.

It's entirely possible to implement something like that deterministically and not do it with fuzzy LLM commands, I just don't trust the people implementing most LLM tools to have done it correctly. Way too much vibe security going on right now.

As a general rule, you can't assume anything involving an LLM is truly a hard switch. Way too often it's actually implemented by prompting the LLM to do/not do a thing, which opens the door to all kinds of non-deterministic idiocy.

Every time this video shows up on my feed, I'm compelled to watch the entire thing. It belongs in a museum.

After months of teasing, winter has finally arrived in Seattle.

I hate to admit, but Trump still has a little juice left in him. Maggot Haberman is pretty funny.

The "real" trucks died all the time and required loads of maintenance. It's silly to pretend modern vehicles don't have half a century of technological improvements put into them, or that the industry hasn't massively improved their manufacturing reliability.

I imagine they can also generate their own market segment of weirdo enthusiasts, if they manage to sufficiently woo the Car Guy demographic.

(Not that the latter is saying much, the rear seats of most coupes are borderline inaccessible to anyone larger than a skinny teenager)

They don't fold all the way forward usually, they just slide forward and fold down enough for you to squeeze past.

I imagine this truck's layout would be more of a pain in the ass than getting into a jeep, but probably way less of a pain than getting into the back seat of a 4 seater coupe.

You probably can with enough practice and enough people to lift the damn thing.

99% of people don't actually want to spend several hours doing hard manual labor on their truck, though. I bet enough people think they do to make removable hardtops a viable marketing tool, though.

I assume it'll work like every other 2 door with 4 seats, where the front seats can fold out of the way to allow for entry. It's how the 2 door jeeps work when you add rear seats.

Like, I'm sorry, but every poll I've seen coming out of Israel shows pretty clearly that the majority Israeli opinion right now is that "the Jewish right to self determination" includes Israel taking that right away from most of its neighbors. It's like the post-9/11 US over there.

What independent journalism? I'd really like to see an actual poll with clear methodology, not just "my liberal Israeli friend group opposes this so the polls must be lying".

Seattle in the snow

It's SNOWING!

Arrived about a month late lol.

It CAN be...

Literally the same thing happened in the US, but we still don't see wildly fraudulent polls being reported by mainstream news outlets.

I don't know why you feel the need to lie about this, but it isn't helping your argument.
