Doesn’t matter what browser or what ad blockers are on or off. Just won’ t publish. Seems like a good way to grow the site.

also, where’s Rory? not seeing and real changes to the site yet.

Here is a picture I took of the books on my nightstand for a work related thing (team building or some such non sense)

The site's UI seems to ebb and flow with usability. Not that I could ever get ungrayed but oh well. I just comment on other people's comments.

I still can (Firefox with all blockers turned off).

I was having quite a bit of trouble a few weeks ago.

I haven’t been able to post there for a long time now. Also, anytime I click on a star, it removes a star from the tally. I’ve become less than a grey.

Uh, congratulations for graduating with the class of 2020.  This is future, this is today.

But they have shiny new sex toy ads in the sidebar, so that’s... something.

I broke code and published a test reply.  Worked fine here.

If anything it seems likes there's fewer posts than before. There have been many "this is the end", but I wonder this time

I just commented there. A fluke, perhaps?

I havent been able to sign in to jalopnik in over a year. Works for me as i find i dont have many nic e things to say on FP. And as the saying goes “if you dont have anything nice to say, dont say anything”.

Ben Rich’s book is good!

kinja is kinja, I’ve learned not to  expect too much but don't tell anyone I said that.

I just wanted to wish you the best moving forwards from something all of us are realizing we’ve matured beyond.

Sounds like David Tracy ’s on his way out.

Well now that David has been dealt a blow on his Jeep hording things continue to degrade. I can really only stand articles from him, Andrew, NPoCP, the weird Torch files and some Brad on moto (but absolutely nothing else from him ) .

I’m down to reading 1 or 2 articles a day and a handful of comments a week. Credit though, they did fix the comments not loading a month ago. Which was probably for worse considering what transpired the start of the month.

I can’t log in on mobile on any of the primary links sites. All the sub blogs work fine. I can’t even read the stories in mobile either. Look at this shit. This is me trying to read about David having to clean up his crappy cars. On my pc I can read and comment just fine.

I don’t even show up in the grey’s on Giz anymore. Earther has zero sense of humor.

I just tried to scroll through David’s latest tragedy and there were over 38 ads.

There was so much loading that Chrome almost crashed several times.

Samsung S10 and 1Gbps fiber optic.

I also came across our regular friend Ash__??__ from these sites on a gizmodo or splinter page lately. Apparently he can’t post to jalopnik or oppo off desktop right now (but weirdly can on those other sites, just like you I guess).

So weird, anyway he says hi to all lol.

I did a history report on the Skunk Works using that book as reference material back in high school. It was fantastic. It w as the largest, thickest book I’d ever read up to that point. Once I picked it up I couldn’t put it down. Finished it in a few days I think.

That book is probably largely responsible for why I got into the engineering field.

haha wait are those really advanced dildonics technologies? I scrolled past one the other day and noticed the name and thought “nah, can’t be” and just kept on scrollin’

RallyWrench > crown victor victoria 06/18/2020 at 20:30

Indeed. I thought nothing of it at first, thought it was a shower head or something. T hen I realized what the text said and did a sensible chuckle. Highly advanced field these days, dildonics.

Sadly that’s not muc h of a loss these days. I don't know anything about Rory, but the ship has seemed rudderless since PG left.

I’m not going to talk much about how silly I find it that someone can (or would even want to) force a neighbor to make significant sacrifices solely because that someone doesn’t like the aesthetics of the neighbor’s yard 

I cannot even.

And let's. It talk about the amount of oil, gas, transmission fluid, etc that's in that soil now
