It's been hilarious to me that now that I have a full time job and can afford the expensive hobby tools and gear I've always wanted.... And now it's all way more expensive, in some cases nearly double the price.
Don't even get me started on the fucking llm bubble and my plans to upgrade my computer and media storage....
And also everything is way more expensive, my neighbors would gladly murder me if they thought I had an "illegal" inside, and everything around me is on fire.
This is fine.
Don't forget the secret fourth one, "Transporter malfunctions"
Don't bother looking for them, they're ~~in the pattern buffer~~ busy.
Ah, then no forced air through ventilation ducts to move air around.
My current house doesn't have vents either, but I have fans that move air around the important bits that get occupied the most. With my dogs needing to go out, and work, the doors are open enough, and there's enough leakage to not worry about co2 levels. Except my wife sometimes trips the sensor in the hallway when she takes a long bath while burning multiple candles...
I once went to a K-mart at around 2am because I wanted to buy a friend a copy of a video game we were staying up most of the night to play. We had been passing the controller back and forth every time we died or finished a mission, and he decided he wanted to buy the game but it would need to wait until payday. Nah, we gonna get you that copy NOW. Hooked his Xbox up to the spare TV and started the game with fresh characters.
No ragrets
That said, I only chose Kmart because they were the only place that sold video games that was open and under 30 minutes away...
That solar panel looks useful.
Since I have never gone out in nondescript black clothing at night to destroy these things, I can't say from firsthand knowledge....
But yes, yes they are. They make great trickle chargers for large batteries that only get used intermittently. Or string several together and enjoy an ebike battery charger. I have a similarly sized and shaped panel I found somewhere that I use to charge my 18650 bank.
I feel very bad for whoever considers me a villain in their story.
Like not to belittle them or their struggles, but uh.... gestures to self just look at me...
We’re going to have to find language that more effectively conveys what we should be saying.
"ICE don't deserve to live and should all be executed for domestic terrorism, murder, and treason"
When they're finally convinced it's hurting The Brand™
Per this comment: https://lemmy.today/comment/22440575
The aircraft tail in the background indicates that specific plane was manufactured in '47, and crashed in 1950, so the picture had to be taken in the summer of 48, 49, or 50.
In fairness to you, small aircraft general designs haven't changed much over the decades, and I was also surprised to see that style of top before the 1960s.
A couple flock cameras near my town keep getting taken out and put back up.
The latest blurry security camera footage to catch the culprit has led to sweet FA since they ride a nondescript dark color mountain bike, wear all black clothing without logos or text, and seem to avoid riding their bike unmasked near businesses with cameras and houses that might have door cameras.
I don't even think they know gender/skin/hair color. Anything other than "average human height" really.
Anyway, shout out to everyone who destroys one of these things. It's illegal, but it's the morally correct thing to do.
The white brick at the bottom is for detecting large objects (cars) and is either controlling a traffic signal, or is being used to count traffic going through that spot.
An intersection near me uses them to switch the lights at an intersection where traffic almost never comes from, so a timed light is unnecessary, but important traffic still comes from that direction.
Which iconic sound is your favorite?
Personally I like the ambient sound of the daedalus in hyperspace.
The sound of a Zat is a close second.
No wrong answers. (there IS a right answer though)
They aren't around anymore as of this morning, but they liked the hoodie and hat and I thought someone might like to see two doggos.
They were both good girls and I miss them.
That would make me less irritated at work.
Small company owners are too cheap to order replacement wheels, but some chucklefuck speared a tire on my lift with their fork and took a chunk out. So now I get a ka-thunk and spine-jarring jolt every rotation, and I have to be extra careful when my forks are up or I'm turning. "It still works" so no getting a replacement any time soon.
I mean, I'm sure they'd be too cheap to order spare segments, so it wouldn't matter either way, but I can dream...
