It's not actually wrong, but it certainly didn't answer the actual question.

The Samsung monitors we get at the office still appear to be just dumb screens. No remote or anything like that. But that's from their business lineup of monitors. Wouldn't surprise me too much if their consumer/gamer lineup would be different.

I have to say, they really should come up with a different name. Searching and finding the website for a company named "Why!" is pretty much impossible with today's search engines.

Around here, people pay a lot of money to make their cars/trucks/bikes sound loud and shitty. Yeah, you do occasionally see a clapped out beater being loud too, but they are the rare exception now.

Pan Am no longer exists?

I was always a bit impressed by those shuttles. They are warp capable and apparently capable of maintaining warp speed for at least several weeks making them more of a starship themselves than just a shuttle. Not bad for something the size of a large van.

Maybe the bumpers on some of the Ram trucks?

Any of the decorative chrome bits have been cheap plasti-chrome for something like 30 years now.

Junk also tend to accumulate in rivers and lakes. Once it's in there it's out of sight, out of mind - and even if you know it's there it is often difficult to remove.

When it finally gets cleaned up by bringing in the magnet or a barge to dredge it up or whatever, you're seeing years if not decades of stuff that's getting pulled out all at once.

The old Podcast app was simple, it did one thing, and it did it well. YouTube Music seems to be trying to do a dozen different things, and it does a shit job of all of them.

It's not the nitrogen that kills you, it's the lack of oxygen.

This method of suffocating someone would work just as well with a gas like helium or argon. It's just that nitrogen is cheap and plentiful for reasons even someone as dimwitted as you can probably figure out.

Next year should be 100% Linux for me. Steam is dropping support for Windows 7 at the end of this year, and I don't have any other newer Windows PC to run Steam on.

It'll probably end up worse than that. Turn off secure boot and Windows may still run, but it will no longer verify and all these sites will now refuse to work on your computer. So if you like to run Linux, even dual booting or running Windows in a VM for those things that absolutely require Windows won't be good enough anymore.
