No, my point is explicitly that, gas car or BEV, if I'm driving from St. Catharines to North Bay, I'm stopping an on route just south of Barrie to eat. With a gas car, I'm fueling up, then eating. With a BEV, I'm plugging in, then eating.

The fact that *you* wouldn't do it the way *I* do it doesn't negate the fact that for my process, which includes a half-hour break *either way,* it's more efficient to charge while taking that break than it is to fuel up, then take that break.

Yup I have basically the same settings as you and my OS and Firefox are up to date. I have to check all my addons to see which one causes trouble... Waste of time.

I use Firefox on Linux with various ad and javascript blockers. Any site that uses cloudflare lets me load only ONE page before blocking me. I need to change my user agent to anything else to load ONE more page. And repeat. It's fucking annoying. The message is always the same:

One, microbes adapted to Mars would stand zero chance against the very many adapted to Earth and constantly fighting against each others.
Two, there are rocks small and large falling constantly from the sky, with remnants from comets with organic materials (not AFAWK microbes) on them, and no they don't all fry in the atmosphere on the way down, and no, they don't cause any contamination on Earth. Something from Mars wouldn't be much different; don't watch too much bad sci-fi.

I'm in Canada too! The 'On' part of 'On Route' is a reference to Ontario.

And yeah, the only reason I'm stopping to eat at Innisfil on my way from, say, St. Catharines to North Bay is because insidious corporate advertising is luring me in. Ok, bro.

Yeah, yeah, yeah... My question for those is "will you still be listening to it one year from now? 20 years from now?". I'm sure I'll still be listening to Ministry or In Flames 20 years from now. But that cuss-word filled rap with no music, no rhythm, no voice, no talent and nothing else... I'm sure you won't.

Currently reading Classical Antiquity Heavy Metal Music, and that's a heavy read.

If you are an extrovert and interacting with people is painful... maybe you should take a good look in a mirror... ?

It's really an acquired taste. Or something you put on when you want to annoy a metalhead with something less TURN IT THE FUCK OFF than rap...

Well, your comment is instantly dismissible for taking 'I need to hit the bathroom, stretch, and eat' as 'you piss for half an hour,' but an On Route is a rest stop that happens to have a gas station. You go into the On Route itself which has bathrooms, multiple restaurants, some convenience stores, lots of seating, a picnic area....

that Jimmy Neutron film for ideas on how to launch differently from Mars surface.

A Star Is Born has been remade four times [after original 1937 film]:

- 1951 (a television adaptation) with Kathleen Crowley and Conrad Nagel
- 1954 with Judy Garland and James Mason
- 1976 with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson
- 2018 with Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper.

I don't really expect Hollywood to change any time soon.

Ernie name has been taken for years - it's the Electronic Random Number Indicator Equipment that has powered the UK's Premium Bonds prize drawing for 68 years.

Even stranger is learning english, when suddenly you understand lyrics of songs you've heard since you were a kid...

That was 12 years ago. A 12 year out of date critique of a web technology that has had ongoing language updates and two entire rewrites in that interval should be viewed with some suspicion. Also, are you really just citing the title of the article and none of the content?

I'm not even defending PHP here, just questioning lazy kneejerk, "but it sucked once, so now I hate it forever" thinking.
