Using LYNX on a monochrome terminal in the university computer lab. Yes, I’m old.

We might not have enough helium for medical equipment, much less a fleet of airships. https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/helium-shortage-doctors-are-worried-running-element-threaten-mris-rcna52978

They got their name because they’re the kind of casserole you bring to family gatherings. They got popular because of crispy cheesy awesomeness.

Do I have to pick one? Shoestring fries, waffle fries, tater tots, home fries, steak fries, garlic mashed potatoes, potato pancakes made from leftover garlic mashed potatoes, curly fries, funeral potatoes, and Greek potatoes are all awesome. I’d also like to try to make patatas bravas sometime. I’m guessing they will also be awesome.

HDMI cables. . The cheap ones and the expensive ones have the same specifications

That sounds like the premise for a new Tim & Eric series.

Refurbs FTW! I scored a lot of good (but not cutting edge) electronics back in the heyday of TigerDirect.

I just read about this! The bowl of petunias was an incarnation of Agrajag. “Not again” referred to being killed by Arthur. Again.

So we got covid, Canada and Hawaii burning, a hurricane in southern California, a right wing insurrection in the US, and microplastics in everything. What’s next? Brainworms, of course!

I haven’t messed with an open source game since early Sauerbraten. I gave up because of the crazy learning curve to git gud.

I was a definite “no” until you made me consider it as an alternative to flying Delta.

I’m no hobbit, but they seem impractical to me. Drafty in cold weather and sweaty in cool weather. I’ll stick with modern breathable Gor-Tex!

That’s an awesome tip! I wish I knew that seven years ago after my last build.

This might be more of a setup thing, but one of the first websites you visit should be ninite.com in order to download browsers, media players, cloud storage, .zip file decompressors, etc, all in one go.

Meta is not a brand new, fresh-faced corporation that maybe needs a chance to prove it’s good intentions in the fediverse. It is an established entity that has a history of killing competition and often being on the wrong side of social issues. It should be rejected from federation outright because of its track record, if nothing else.

They’re already calling his plea agreement a “sweetheart deal” and “a slap on the wrist”.

I hope the best for them as well, but even if they make it to the surface, they can still suffocate because they’re bolted in from the outside.

I feel like I’m just about done since Reddit is pretty much irredeemable to me at this point. However, I think we’ve got at least another month of it to go before everybody’s done.

I think a lot is riding on Reddit’s promised rollout of new mod tools. If the new mod tools aren’t available before the 1st, or if they’re woefully inadequate compared to those of third party apps, a lot of mods are going to be upset. Particularly those moderating large subs.

I deleted all of the posts and comments on my 10 year-old account. After seeing what established Reddit accounts are going for on eBay, I’m considering selling.
