I walked past a woman in Costco the other day who said to her phone, exasperated - “I don’t want the AI, i want my grocery list!”

Amazing, truly amazing times we live in.

Wait, what? I’m legit not familiar with immutable distros, is it like you’re only allowed to modify certain directories?

Search “switch hacking is easy” - there’s an ancient site that got dcma’d (or something) that is defunct but someone rehosted it under “switch hacking is still easy” on github.

That’ll help you tell whether you’re able to use the joycon jumper method or not. If not, it’s a very fiddly modchip install that I wouldn’t recommend unless you’re experienced in soldering.

Be sure you understand the difference between launching directly and installing a parallel OS (sysmmc vs emummc, I think?)

Someone might need to check me but if you do sysmmc then boot into it without the hacks and Nintendo domain blocking, it’ll connect up to Nintendos servers and report the hack and ban your console

Long ago I sorted my bin into two bins - obsolete and not obsolete. Now it’s been so long some of the not obsolete box is becoming obsolete.

It’s still great for games, it’s just not turning into the metaverse from snow crash like some people thought it would

Get beat saber and learn to download custom songs, highly recommend

ah hell, I’m getting shot by a drunk hillbilly aren’t I?

Unexpected xkcd

Use the box & heated bed method, there’s videos on it

Sometimes I go into my router’s logs and look at the firewall messages where it blocks all the traffic my printer tries to send to the internet with a smug look on my face

Roommates

Honestly I just assume that those two are where people dump cars, I would never buy a car from either of those without an independent checkup or a warranty.

Also, the initial screening is not the only inspection that carmax does, if the issue is as pronounced as OP implies it’ll probably get caught and sent to an as-is dealer auction where people know that crap cars are sent.

See if Carmax will make you an offer. If it’s not bad enough to be blowing blue smoke and the coolant is clean, you may by able to sneak it by an underpaid intake tech.

If you do use CL or FB marketplace, don’t offload it without a word of warning please. People are struggling right now and the ones buying $400 cars are doing so because they can’t afford anything else. Carvana and Carmax are giant corporations so no moral issues with offloading on them.

I remember fighting with gas weed whackers endlessly as a teen trying to do chores… having to dick with the choke for a cold start, having to pump prime them (and it being possible to over prime and lock them out), then you had to carry them around and use them with the exhaust at steak searing temperature… and if you didn’t know how to tune an idle they’d just die in your hands if you didn’t goose the throttle occasionally

This is a great one - don’t miss small gas engines even a little bit lol

Something something steam link…

Idk i think that scene still fucked kid me up a little lol

Get a Kagi sub. 5 bux a month (10 for unlimited searches) and you get a company that wants to help you find stuff instead of trying to sell you whatever their advertisers paid them to stuff in your face, and LLM slop that they push because they’re afraid they’ll get left behind by the latest trend.

It’s refreshing, a search company that works for me. I’m the customer, so they put development hours towards making the experience better for us - not their advertisers.

Oof, man the number of people willing to take advantage of the trust people put in medicine is terrifying

Good on ya for smelling the bullshit before ya stepped in it
