Have you ever looked closely at a car windshield?

The edge of the glass is painted where it is glued to the car but it has these small dots between the clear and painted glass.

These are there for a reason. When the sun hits the glass the painted areas and the clear areas will absorb heat at different rates. This causes the glass to expand and contract differently putting stress on the glass.

These dots help the glass to warm up more evenly over a larger area so the glass does not suffer stress that could cause it to spontaneously explode.

Fun fact: the Tesla cybertruck doesnโ€™t have these.

Yes, the glass will spontaneously crack or explode in the sun.

Adding that to yet another reason that local Tesla repair center is so slammed all the time. There's protests in front of it every so often.

three hours of reading legislation later and i have completed my tasks, consumed a bag of takis, and my eyes hurt, and WHY DOES VIRGINIA WRITE THEIR LAWS LIKE THAT. long ass complicated sentences unclear subjects and objects. virginia you're not cool or special. talk like normal people

I think my karma for telling people that beef is the worst meat is having to hear someone tell me "plants hate us and want to kill us" like... my response was "You're a type O blood type aren't you?" She was like "Yeahhh how'd you?..."

heheh but that's how blood types work, I'm not type O myself so plants vibe better with me but beef doesn't; reverse that for type O blood types and maybe someday...we can stop projecting our blood type on the world at large regarding the best diet (lmao)
