Rivian R1S review: king of the mountain - The R1S is one of the most comprehensively well-designed a... - theverge.com/23688504/rivian-r

Mid-size truck appreciation toot. This is about to those smaller trucks that fit on almost any road and parking space. Whilst big full size trucks do have their plus points in terms of capacity and comfort this is about the little ones that are common all round the globe.

Here are 4 mid size, totally stock factory trucks I think are super neat!

PS: yeah I know both the Artic Truck and the Mazda are technically the same Isuzu truck. I’m biased 😄

@lowqualityfacts
The local DVLA officer didn’t know what type of car it was and the FW standard was created for the new type of vehicle. FW stands for Funky Wagon! This terminology was created by Nigel Miller who upon seeing the vehicle commented “it’s a funky wagon init brov” and it thus ever since then every SUV in Britain has a number plate that starts with FW.

@lowqualityfacts if you want to know a more interesting fact then look at the Land Rover SUV in the background and you will notice that the number plate starts with FW.

The FW standard goes back to 1950 when an imported Willys-Overland Jeepster was registered Bedfordshire, England.

Some people post the weirdest, most nonsensical bullshit on here.

I would like to sincerely thank those people.

The only thing standing in the way of you being a bestselling author is your writing a bestselling book.

I'm sorry but this is just the funniest shit ever.

These losers were mad that celebs had checkmarks and they didn't. Now they can buy the same checkmark and they're mad that the celebs won't.

@lowqualityfacts did you know that in the United Kingdom all motorhome number plates start with the letters RV? Took a photo as proof. If you look closely you can see the owner looking at me wondering why I’m photographing him.

Battlechess works as well! Maybe it's time to settle it once and for all at which computer is better. 😁

Twitter 

I don't post on Twitter but I still have my account there locked, and I wondered if there was something that autoblocks blue checks post API death and this works sort of well: github.com/kheina-com/Blue-Blo

You can configure it to not block blue checks that you follow already too.

Lately, I've not been having a good time with GFN. Luna is silky smooth but GFN is skipping frames and has some latency that it didn't use to have.

Every once in a blue moon, I still open Twitter to see what my dev peeps are doing. Many people are gone from Twitter, and engagement for those still active has gone off a cliff. Mastodon feels smaller than Twitter back in the day, but engagement seems on par now.

What's worrying is that engagement seems to have gone down for all #Scala channels, like #Reddit. My last blog post got the most visits from #LinkedIn.

Is this only a personal impression?
