@japan_nobunaga Except for Shibuya in Tokyo where you definitely can’t drink alcohol out in the open in the evening.

@japan_nobunaga Except for that one random dude who will talk to you and show you his YouTube channel until you get off at your stop. Then everybody is looking at you, but very politely.

@ConceptualJames As best I can. Focusing on my immediate world and my family helps best. I appreciate the work you do James, and the thoughtfulness by which you do it.

@4nt1p4tt3rn I overheard a dad talking to his son the other day who said “fireworks should be enjoyed but not dangerous” and I grimaced.

@4nt1p4tt3rn @defrockedSpock @GeorgeThurmon @TheBaconFather I also hate that they moved the drive shift from a physical control to the screen. It’s much slower to use.

@4nt1p4tt3rn @defrockedSpock @GeorgeThurmon @TheBaconFather I’ve had this happen. Very annoying. They switched to lithium 12v in later models but that seems like a stop gap, along with “easier” controls to manually get into things. I don’t think I should ever be prevented from using the vehicle unless the high voltage battery is dead.

@ConceptualJames This makes me wonder how people think about laws that shield individuals from liability if they don’t choose to render assistance during emergencies. There seems to be some common parallels/themes.

@buraunko I’ve never had it served warm. Maybe room temperature if it was freshly prepared, but almost always it is chilled.

@RobProvince Best timeline.

[Ian Oberst @ian_oberst]

@sakegorilla Sake is amazing. I’m only just starting to try more and more of it. Long time fan of Japanese whiskey!

My timeline now is almost entirely people posting from Japan and I’m here for it. BBQ unites the world!

[Ian Oberst @ian_oberst]

@4nt1p4tt3rn Legitimately this would be amazing. How do we invest?

[Ian Oberst @ian_oberst]

@4nt1p4tt3rn If AI can produce better code than you then you are the dead weight.

[Ian Oberst @ian_oberst]

@4nt1p4tt3rn I dislike that people don’t talk about this very much. I dislike it even more when people try to sell me on AI and tell me it writes code better than they can.

@AdamRackis I feel like you are one of the first people I’ve seen on social media call this out and it is a breath of fresh air. Struggle helps us gain and retain experience, but having a magic button shows how much we lack discipline in making sure this isn’t lost.

@nightstar2197 @Helldivers2HQ Even better: You finally reinforce them after dealing with the jammer and they start to PK you endlessly.
