They could halve their prices and still make bank.

Markups at retail stores are insane, places like Walmart are the worst.

I want a small European style truck that's hybrid. Like give me 200 miles of electric charge, and a small generator I can use to charge up. I don't even care if I can't drive while it's using the generator for a charge, I just want the ability to charge out in the field without filling my bed up with solar panels.

Rarely do I need the full size of my 90s/2000s era truck. And it's tiny compared to modern trucks. That said, I am hauling small things that won't fit in a car or SUV nearly daily.

Most of the guys I know that drive the large trucks go on about how they NEED them for "safety" or for "when I'm hauling a bunch of stuff" while the cover on their bed hasn't been lifted off since they bought it and there isn't a single scratch on the hitch.

I didn't even know the Lighting existed until I read an article about how someone used one to power their home during a power outage.

I make an attempt not to subject myself to marketing, but it seems like marketing for that thing was straight nonexistent for a long time.

Nothing says "I do not care, this is beneath my ability to even think about and in no way affects my decision-making" like painting on your clothing in response to a comment.

It really sells how little she thinks about it.

Just like when someone comments/messages/texts several huge long paragraphs in an argument while constantly saying "I don't care", you can feel the apathy.

Also sometimes I use a photo editor on my phone.

The crayon scribbles of my 3 year old nephew on the back of a soggy napkin holds more value than a mountain of AI slop.

C&Ds make great firestarters.

Two hundred thousand times already, with a million more well on the way.

I had exactly 0 intention of ever buying anything from Adobe.

Inkscape gave me an alternative to the high seas. And it happens to do everything I need it to, although it's way more powerful than the simple vector graphics conversions I use it for.

10/10, Adobe never lost money from me getting Inkscape. They lost the game before they knew I was a player.

I wish we still lived in a country where legal arguments are still relevant.

When half the social networks, such as they were, have been decimated via illegal orders and people who don't have legal authority are allowed to do as they please, fire who they please, and confiscate funding as they please, laws mean nothing unless you're poor or in the "out" group.

She said I have to make a copy of my genitals with one of those silicone mold kits before I can get bottom surgery "then we can both enjoy it"

I was just trying to say it a bit more politely, my bad.
