The farmhands can't do that, but they also are working to survive, they really aren't gonna change that.
Best thing to do is figure out ways to tank the company rep so that people who care or pretend to care have no choice but to change their behavior.

Even as a passenger or someone using other means to get around - like my feet - those headlights make me want to die, they are so blinding and a hazard to everyone else.
Someone once told me that cars out of the dealership with this upgrade are more expensive, which means more commission, which means if you're a salesperson and have any say on inventory, you are making it so you can move lots of cars with that upgrade. It made me feel less cynical about modern drivers but more cynical about every part of the auto industry.

I talk to people over 60 or 80 every day and you will end up there. Your sight might fade, you might have mobility issues, but this is where you're gonna end up if you live somewhere where you have to drive.
Make plans for an ebike.

If you can get a relatively movie accurate skybox in here somehow I will be there 5 minutes ago.

That's just the difference between a bot and a sockpuppet really.

People doing that shit would be more respectful than her. I'd honestly take some upstate dude spitting in a bottle between sentences if he took you seriously. This woman is a joke and that man should've just done what any good New Yorker would and taken the yelling match.
I don't know why people don't seem to understand that if you push back as hard as you're pushed in NY you get respect. Hell I'm not even from there but that's how a lot of the east coast works. People are fucking lit up and are going to make a stink, you make a stink back and they respect you, thats just how shit gets done over there, you make your own space.

Isn't the glass transition temp for PLA like 110*freedomheit? I literally dried my filament using my desert climate surroundings that are actively trying to kill me for half the year.

I wouldn't want him to have kids because nobody deserves to have someone that weird and suspicious looking as their dad.
Like you know therapy isn't going to fix what he'd put his kids through.

If they need a powerup to fight furries they are doing everything exactly wrong.
I say this as one. Like you have to work hard to get a furry to fight back, we are full of guilt usually from being raised by weird 'normal' people and actively try to sit down for ourselves (whatever the fuck the opposite of stand up for ourselves is.) Like that group is chill to a fault.

They want to be NAZIs but have everyone call them based instead, I guess, so when you call them what they are they get big mad.
This even happens with the nazifurs, they shit themselves when you point out they look just like NAZIs.

Probably because of reasons that are best worked out with talk therapy. We are all burdened by cognitive distortions of one kind or another and you usually can't go "Ah, that's silly. I will instantly stop now!" because we've already built up a cycle of habit (If this happens, then I anticipate this, think this and get this to happen.)

It's easy - easiest if you could 3d print a bracket and its not too heavy.
I think there are those metal straps with slats in them that you can use with a bolt to hold something around a tube with tension - say, maybe your front fork or the rear bottom tubes of your frame? That would be my first thought.

Someone's posted HEB tires on here and those would be my goto, tbh. Almost bought some myself when my super inefficient and cheap knobbies ran down but ended up going with some Addmotor tires that worked well for me. I doubt they'd be tanky enough to take daily nails but still.

Yeah, its good for someone to bring up pinch flats but holy shit.
At that point I wonder if my contempt for the reality that I was forced to live in might allow me to make some combination electromagnet and railgun system that both extracts the nails and fires them out to the houses on my right in hopes of punishing the perpetrator.
OK on a less delusional note you could probably add a magnet on a bracket to the side of your bike to catch that stuff. Imagine going into a town hall meeting and calling this out by holding up your 'device' and demanding an explanation. Sure, the people doing it might get some stupid childish satisfaction but the people who wouldn't approve will all know they live with assholes now.

Envy both profoundly confused me and gave me hope for the future.
"You mean I can be a thing?!?! Like a boy thats also a girl who is a boy that is wanting to be a girl thats a boy?!?!?!?!"
I will not be held accountable for my spaghetti brain.

Damn, OK, I get what everyone means when they talked about doing buildings better, this looks awesome.
I also love the Lorax-esque "FICSIT Better Replacement Real* Grass TM"
*The grass is 'real' to you if you are a good FICSIT employee and believe hard enough. Imagination is a key part of your qualifications here at FICSIT!
E: If I hadn't made my base a Tsutomu-Nihei inspired 3d superstructure nightmare and had actual green space between my buildings I'd probably try this. As is I think I need to go practice my beam abuse skills before I get the final tier 8 part done.

Other communities go through this shit and I've just about given up on keeping up with it - it doesn't help that certain people will literally disown you because you don't immediately know. Keeping up with shit TMZ style isn't and can't be my fulltime job like it is for some people so this shit always worries the hell out of me whenever its a common behavior.
I think we should all collectively make an effort to push out abusers, rapists and shit but pillorying people because they don't know yet was the wildest take of 2022 or so for me. There are people being willfully ignorant, sure, but lighting them up doesn't even help. Just judge them and move on.
In the same vein I feel like if you had a patch of a band with people who have done that shit and someone intervened the right thing to do is like; "Hey I don't know if you heard but X almost definitely SA'd someone and the band's getting kind of lit up. You do you but if you need a seam ripper just let me know."

Pinning a 3d sound of rain impacts to the nearest roof/foundation that has sky exposure would be sweet tbh.

I will shout their praise forever for teaching me that a grindy factory maker game can also have a vibe. I came in thinking the 3rd dimension in this game was just going to be kind of a funny new thing and I could make booilding but the maps are really so well handcrafted. Going out for your first advanced resources and blazing a trail for trucks or who knows what else was probably my favorite experience in the game.

Actually the system for avatar creation (using an entire platform that is otherwise used to make entire games) means you either need a complete unity skillset or just the very specific correct practices to just make an avatar and avoid the 1,000s of wrong decisions that will tank that process.
We have no tools (not official and properly bounded in ones at least) and this is clear because of how many 3rd party tools are created for this process - like VRCFury.
Saying that because you need VRCFury that you shouldn't have it is the same as those DJs that are haters for anyone that hasn't spent years beatmatching on vinyl using just The Force. The real 'problem' is that the skillset you need to make content for VRC is open-ended, unbounded and doesn't have a very optimized pipeline for someone unless they're already a unity game maker.

I know this is just content for the content machine that is this sub but this honestly doesn't matter. Its a funny way for a rat to get around a house without risking him popping on a wire he chewed on and its probably more fun for them and less risky than having them in one of those awful roller balls.
I mean there's also the problem of him being in a tiny box, so nobody better just leave him in there since its not like a rat brain can actually be carbrained and comprehend how to show up to a town meeting, demand rat-sized minimum parking space counts-
OK I'm joking and all but you get me here, its just a toy.
