Anecdotal, but I just replaced my favorite pair of Pumas, which were at least 12 years old. Granted I didn't wear them every single day, but at least 2 or 3 days a week for 12 years is pretty good in my book. I've had to replace Adidas sooner than that with less wear, but they still last pretty long and I'll confidently buy both brands. I'd never buy Nike (and wouldn't wear most Nikes either honestly, just not my personal taste in style)
For some reference, here's a picture of maybe 2/3 of my shoes, many of which are Pumas. There's also a couple pairs of Keds in there, but they're more recent and I don't know yet how they hold up long term comparatively
Super fair, I'm neurodivergent (though generally mask very well) and tend to notice small details like that (while forgetting that my perspective is often in the minority in that regard)
It's more of a spectrum with hyper- and a- phantasia being the extremes on each end
(Prophantasia is considered the ability to project imagined images into your physical field of view)
If you really want to blow your mind (heh), you should check out SDAM (Severely Deficient Autobiographical Memory), which is thought to be linked to aphantasia
The current people of the ruling class can't do anything about it
They absolutely could do something about it as proven by how the current (US) administration has made things markedly worse than the previous admin. (If they can make it worse then they can also make it better)
The car’s exterior eliminated the traditional hood, removing the need for drivers to open it for routine maintenance. Instead, a service center would handle all checks and adjustments, and the car’s onboard system would notify owners when servicing was due.
Honestly surprised some auto manufacturer hasn't tried this in a production vehicle

Reminds me of Sneakers, it was a great movie
This but it's not just tech companies, it's all companies and a feature of our lovely system 🙃
If I purchased it it's mine, especially the hardware
If you're gonna be a dick, at least get it right
The phrase is "Assume makes an ass out of you and me"
I've interacted with way too many developers that would struggle with this, you're giving them too much credit as a whole
I'd like to change timelines please and thank you
Forcing someone to disclose information about themselves (age or age bracket) is compelled speech
Still a 1st Amendment violation, no? Compelling speach

You're right, though games are also "media" 😋

A computer hooked up to a TV is considered a media center PC, or an HTPC, not a console

I know, I just take (very very slight) issue with your choice of "can't" rather than "won't"
