Star Trek TNG literally started with space jellyfish, too

The lady on the right might be a Sith!

Well, I went and looked it up and apparently since the iPhone 4 onwards Apple actually started to get their shit together and started supporting their hardware for more than 3 years … I do find it funny though that an unsupported iPhone can’t connect to the app store at all while even the evil Google’s old apps can still get live data without problems.

Yes, it’s a 3G. In black if minutiae matter to you.

It doesn’t have maps, and most websites are unsupported even though it’s far newer than the old Android phone.

I can’t use the iPhone 3 I have in a drawer, even though there’s nothing wrong with it. Meanwhile my HTC that runs Android 1.2 still works with Google maps just fine.

I was also pissed off when all the OSX software dropped support for single-core Intel processors which rendered some very expensive 2 year old machines at work useless for anything Mac-specific.

For context, my Dad is still using a PC I built out of parts recovered from a skip in 2008, and it works just fine.

Do they last longer? I have an IPhone 3 somewhere that just decided to stop working, yet my HTC with Android 1.2 still works fine.

Most of what’s held me back from Apple products has been their planned obsolescence, where the OS was no longer supported, which I’ve never had with a PC. I’ve had my cheap second hand laptop for 7 years now and that still works fine with the latest software

Just what we need, libertarian ogres …

Has anything that starts with an X been poisoned now? If I were xstore’s marketing department I’d feel a little on edge right now.

In other news this headline made me feel old, it took ,e a while to understand what it was trying to say

Kai trucks are made to fit within a size limit for vehicles in inner cities in Japan, as a result there’s a whole load of odd tiny vehicles still available today.

The closest we get in Europe now are the “heavy quadricycles”, but again they’re made for a specific legal niche (or for specific jobs, like the Aixam Mega Truck for things like park maintenance).

Either way, small vehicles are unfortunately unsafe because there’s no crumple zones, so outside of slow-burning town centers they’re a bad idea (and in town centers it’s better to not have cars at all) so we’re unlikely to see more cute tiny vans in the future … except for things like the electric truck you saw, which can cover commercial needs in zero emissions areas, but again specialised use.

They used to be (see: Bedford Rascal) but then people started thinking they’d like to keep their legs in the event of an accident

My Garmin Montana GPS uses 3 AA batteries and it’s really handy if you’re in an area without mains electricity since carrying a an extra set (or even buying alcalines in a pinch) will get you going again!

No worries, it makes sense now!

What does this have to do with Spain?

This!

Some intimate time with a consenting partner of your preferred gender, or cheesecake.

Thus we can witness the sound of a million Scottish fingers tapping numbers into phones at the same time

In Spain some people play an uno-reverse and live in industrial zones. There’s also restaurants in industrial parks.

These posts about people needing pickup trucks are so funny to me, I live on the side of a mountain and my village has one paved road and 5 unpaved roads leading away from it.

The most popular vehicle used by tradespeople and farmers here is the Citroen Berlingo. Before that, Citroen C15, and before that the Renault 4 (still see quite a few of those around).

My Renault Clio has zero problems on unpaved mountain roads.

I have no idea why Americans need or want such big trucks.

The layout is a little confusing, but the message is the important part and is correct.
