    I recently noticed the device type icon in iOS27 no longer shows a car despite the device type being set to “car stereo”, this was nice detail I appreciated. Does anyone know why they took this away? (old.reddit.com) [Support]

    One of my best friends got his hands on a premier event film strip and designed/built a lightbox for my 30th birthday… it literally had me in tears! (i.redd.it)

This isn’t car play, it’s just Bluetooth. I’ve got an old school single din head unit.

Where were you when I lived in Tampa for 1.5 years trying to find Sox friends

Bendzo

I know… I was so upset. And then the 4 on on my 12th shot too! One day I’ll have a clean game!

Bendzo

Dude my first game today was a fucking 86, I know the feeling. What’s helped me keep calm and slow it down is filming myself with a mic to post some social content. Way less likely to let my competitive temper flair which helps me bowl better!

If only the jerseys said Boston too. Still infuriating, it’s supposed to represent the scoreboard on the monster. The monster doesn’t say Red Sox anywhere on it, a massive oversight.

Bendzo

Same, yes, very similar.

You’re not adding enough water, or you’re adding too much. Every soap is different, it’s trial and error. B&M is one of the most popular artisan brands for a reason. The product doesn’t “suck”, your lather prep does and that’s ok. I had the same issues with noble otter when I first started wet shaving, but eventually got the hang of building a good lather.

It’s a sandwich shop. 99% of sandwiches that exist can be made cheaper and equivalent/better at home.

Henson aggressive, Summer Break Cannonball and Bic CP

Love my Nivea balm, found out they test on animals. I’ll be switching to something else.

EMT-B is 150 hours of classroom training and months of on the job practical training, Paramedic courses range from anywhere between 600-1200 hours and also require months of field training.

Their job is far more than “driving” regardless of skill or certification level. I’m not offended, but you seem to be extremely upset I’ve pointed something out that you weren’t aware of. Do you works in the field? Are you aware of the actual demands or requirements for the job?

Bendzo

Not everything has to be intentionally offensive, but the fact remains, EMS providers are highly skilled professionals and calling them "ambulance drivers" while innocent is insulting. Their primary function is to provide lifesaving medical care in the field, just like firefighters and law enforcement officers provide their specific functions/services and yet, no one refers to them as drivers of the apparatus they use to respond to calls. I'm sorry that pointing this out upset you so much.

Bendzo

It was more of a tongue in cheek comment re. “Ambulance driver”, it’s a relatively demeaning term. They’re paramedics/EMTs who also drive ambulances, just as firefighters and cops are as such and also drive their respective vehicles.

To to your point, fire engines are actually easier to maneuver, as they’re cab over/in front of the axel but yes, they do require additional training in the sense that you have to prove the same proficiency on the day of your EVOC(emergency vehicle operating course) test day in the engine/truck (class 3 or 4) as well as the ambulance(class 2).

Bendzo

Police car drivers and fire engine drivers are bad too.

PHM jokes aside: Highly recommend finding a local coffee shop that makes proper espresso drinks. You’ll get the same amount of caffeine in a single cappuccino or flat white that you’ll get in these giant sugary drinks!

Bendzo

I thought this work looked familiar and then realized you’re the one in RVA my finance follows on insta, this one is amazing!!!

Bendzo

Cocaine and also having children

Season 1 wasn’t even aired until 2005… I’m curious if you’ve even watched the show 😅

Bendzo

So, did you fat finger when entering the text or did the manufacturer screw up?

Bendzo

Because they want engagement

Presumably, the mechanics of the ship are within the section protected by astrophage within the lines and tanks.
