i swear that trees were invented by clamp companies to sell more clamps

man i was staring so hard at the community name and the source and hoping they would both change to “The Onion”

This is just incredibly sad

basically how the BLJ in Mario 64 works

adding on to Noise, if you do end up in a situation where you’re considering buying refurbished enterprise hard disks, know that they are louder than normal consumer drives, esp if you have 4 of them running at once in a NAS

ah yes when you get to the station and the announcements say “the next train to so-and-so has been cancelled, sorry for the inconvenience” Always a fun day

Thats pretty cool. Using steam pistons to help compress the fuel enough for fusion, from which that heat gets used to make different steam to then make electricity.

Stop & Shop in the US does this (or at least it did? I never used it so I barely pay attention to it lol). There’s like a wall of handheld scanners you can pick up when you enter and a little place on the cart for them to go in. You can scan and bag your stuff as you go and then pay at a special register.

if there’s one thing I know, its a large pepperoni with extra cheese will fix me

I swear some companies design engines to just be put together once and that’s it. Absolute nightmare to service.

could also be an Audi owner doing timing work on one of those engines with the timing chain at the back of the engine

Thats so cute!!! Become one with the tree

That is a pretty great picture!

I just noticed this on Newegg but when you load the page, it puts a search suggestion of something popular people are searching (today its MH Wilds) in the search bar. I guess the idea is that you can click on it to instantly search for that thing. The problem is, that it takes a beat to load in so by the time you click on the search bar to enter what you wanted, you’ve accidentally clicked the search suggestion and then are taken to those results, instead of being able to enter the thing you wanted to search for int he first place.

It takes over the right side of the search bar, but depending on the size of the browser window, that could end up taking the majority of the search bar’s free space to click on.

man when you’re too terrible for Florida conservatives to want you there, you know you’re a terrible person

aw, i did like Jo-ann’s. So much nice fabric.

8BitDo makes some good controllers, and at least I’ve never had any issues with my SN30 Pro+ first gen. Some of the older controllers needed special Windows/Mac software to update their firmware and stuff, but I think newer controllers let you put them in flashing mode, mount them as a USB device, and then just drag and drop firmware into them.

I also have a Gulikit KK2 that’s been fine. Not a cheap controller, but I’d assume that anything they offer would work too. The Gulikit i’ve used in bluetooth mode on my laptop and it was fine, tho the 8bitdo i pretty much only use in wired mode. The 8BitDo is cool because it has a removable battery, but you also have the option of using AA batteries too, if you wish.

that 1990 vintage smell
