Why does Dairy Queen sell food? in c/[email protected]

I didn't know that they used to not sell food. All I know is that I didn't expect them to sell food.

This is a Berenstain Bears moment for me...

What's your advice for someone driving their first manual transmission car? in c/[email protected]

That makes sense. I didn't imagine a manual vehicle not having a hand brake.

They aren't ice cream stores though...

I disagree with your premise.

Why?

It didn't used to be, but that's how it is now.

I see what you mean though.

Why can just mean explain something that is unexpected. Which you did with the history lesson. It doesn't have to answer causality.

I would never do that to a French Fry.

At least the other fast food places don't have names like "Ben &Jerry" or "Baskin Robbins"

Not necessarily. It could be "Why does Dairy Queen sell food (unsaid part: when I expect it to only sell ice cream?")

A: because it used to only sell ice cream in the past.

It's the fast way of saying emergency brake, aka hand brake.

Isn't it supposed to be ice creams and milkshakes and stuff?

Advice Requested: 2006 pc upgrade (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

My first PC ever built is sort of unusable in its current state, and there are a few things I could do:

  • Update necessary parts and keep it as a retro-media-compatible PC/nas/server. I love how it has a floppy drive!
  • Get rid of it and save money

If I wanted to replace it, I would need to get at minimum:

  • motherboard
  • ram
  • CPU

I'm hoping I can keep using the following parts, some of which have been updated over the years:

  • pcie 2.0 graphics card
  • 500 W power supply
  • monitor / peripherals
  • optical / floppy drives
  • SSD / HDD
  • ATX case (the original case and motherboard PCI slots never lined up quite correctly...) Cooler Master centurion (?)

I've never done anything like this, and last time I built a PC was in 2006. I lack a lot of knowledge...

  1. Is my case likely to be compatible with a modern motherboard?
  2. Can I buy a modern motherboard/CPU that will be compatible with this other stuff?
  3. Would it be less expensive to buy another used PC and use its motherboard/CPU ?

What happened to JuiceSSH? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I really liked this SSH client, but I can't find it on the play store and I can't find any recent news. Does anyone know why it was taken down?

Edit: it's back up now, sorry for not checking. But it was down earlier this week when I was trying to install it. Would still like to know what happened, if it wasn't a random Google problem.

Sometimes there is a sign saying "front in parking only" and I get it for angled parking spots but why would a sign like this ever exist for normal spots? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

Inspired by that other thread about backing in to parking spaces.

Why did we stop using Firefox? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)
 

Can someone remind me why we stopped using Firefox a while back? There was some piece of news that broke everyone's trust, but I can't remember what Mozilla did. Was it a change in their user agreement?
