Worse, setting DNT makes your browser more unique for fingerprinting.

TSA is disgustingly ineffective at stopping contraband.

Tests regularly show they miss 90% of prohibited items. WHILE consistently misconfiscating things that are allowed.

Literally the movie theater security guard checking for people smuggling in outside food is more effective than the TSA.

Like, I don't even know how you'd be that comically incompetent, at a certain point, I think malice is the only reasonable explanation.

Hot take: If a partner rejects you because you didn't give them an expensive enough engagement gift, they're not worth marrying.

If they truly love you, they wouldn't care. If they had the slightest concern for your future together, they would prefer that money go into a savings account or the down payment for a house or literally anything more useful than a ring.

Stealing this ShowerThoughts post from Reddit:

It's interesting how we are often told how law enforcements budgets aren't big enough for them to deal with issues like Medicare fraud, corporate collusion, and illegal claim denials. But when a CEO dies there are enough resources for a multi-state manhunt.

Trump, your child couldn't put a lego car together.

Also I'm pretty sure there's drug testing at automotive plants. How's your cokehead of a child going to even get in the door?

More expensive than the building itself below a certain size

"It's not like the government is forcing you to buy a car!"

If you live in a city with parking minimums, yes they fucking are.

To paraphrase Alan Fisher, electric cars fail to solve the biggest problem with cars: The fact that they're still cars.

Does anyone remember an article/interview a while back where Mark Fuckerberg shamelessly admitted that he chose not to hash passwords in the original Facebook codebase specifically because he wanted to be able to log into his users' other accounts that use the same password? I swear I remember reading something like this but now I can't find it.

You're walking home late at night from the bar because you've had 11 shots of tequila but you still made the conscious decision not to drive for the safety of others.

You're crossing a stroad.

Someone "in a hurry" decide to run the red light and hits you at 70 km/h (because of course they were speeding, why wouldn't they?), doesn't see you because you're hunched over while you're walking and it's really dark and the person is driving a giant SUV with shit visibility.

Cars are one of the largest source of fatal pedestrian accidents in a major city. How much more likely are you to get into an accident if you're drunk and is less able to pay attention to cars breaking the rules and putting you in danger? Walking safely in most cities is a task you need to be sober for because you have to walk super defensively.
