    No joke that’s why I don’t like heated seats except on the very lowest setting (which is till sometimes too high). Feels like sitting in a puddle of warm piss.

    I just want vented seats for those days where the seat material gets so hot, because to get any decent features in most new cars you HAVE to get the “leather” instead of fabric.



  • The problem is that they are a cartel, so we get in a place where a group of private businesses can dictate who can make money.

    I think it’s a great idea in theory that as a payment processor you can have influence on social changes. I think businesses should have clear ethics so that I can support those that match my own. If there were 50 processors to choose from that all had niches and different ethics, fine. But we have in reality one processor with finger puppets on asking us which puppet we like best.







  • Humans work off of incentives and risk. If there’s essentially no consequences for pickpocketting and the incentive is quite high with expensive phones and cash potential, the balance is way out of proportion. A good chance of getting your shit rocked brings it a bit more in line.

    The possibility of getting shot or stabbed is way out of proportion the other way. That’s the problem with America. You can’t even give someone the bird when they nearly crash into you without fear of getting shot.

    What about a masters in engineering and a bachelor’s in chemistry makes him even double more qualified? Yeah, maybe if he had a doctorate you could make that argument, but you could easily learn and do as much science work in 6 years outside of a university than you would in a BS and MS program at a university.


  • Maybe we keep the good stuff in California, but in my wine drinking experience so far, French and Italian wines aren’t noticeably better. In fact, all the best wines I’ve had have been Californian, but that could be because I got it at the winery itself.

    Less demand for California wines means they’re cheaper for me, that’s not a bad thing in my book.

    Stick it to us Canada, we sure fucking deserve it.
