Does the Rolex do the chief function of a watch (keep time) better than a $30 Time ?

So you’re saying what it really does is communicate that you’re a superficial asshole and/or sucker.

Press X to doubt…they didn’t have Ikea until well after the medieval period.

You wanna know something sweet and innocent?

When my oldest was like…3 or 4 (he’s nine now) the kid would hear that line and then say “What’s ‘soapin’?”.

So glad that was the part of “horse open” that he asked about.

He also (still) thinks the Eric Clapton song “Cocaine” is saying “Cooking”. Sometimes I sing it to him at bedtime with that lyric.

She don’t like
She don’t like
She don’t like… Cooking.

Haven’t we solved that? How does offshore oil work?

I asked ChatGPT if it would ever maliciously give me a wrong answer and it said no, so I believe it.

Ahh…I see the problem.

Sometimes I rubber duck with ChatGPT.

Honestly I’ve learned more in a few months of fixing its mistakes than I had in years of being on the job.

Ime Google AI is much worse about making up wrong answers to sound right.

If I’d ask ChatGPT and Google AI to help me craft a set of Ansible tasks to do something rather simple but also something I don’t do very often, like converting PEM certs + key to PKCS12…they’d both write a playbook that’s close, but ChatGPT would be much closer.

But they both say crazy shit sometimes. The other day ChatGPT told me Fedora 40 is the latest release and 43 is still in testing.

Meanwhile I can’t buy flavored snus in my state…I can drive 20 minutes to the next state and buy shitty flavored snus, or I can import much better stuff from Sweden for half the price. Which of course needs an adult to sign for it. And of course it’s been stuck in Customs since Friday and I’m down to my last few cans.

But I can order hemp-derived THC seltzers, sometimes 25mg/can, online, no ID needed, and have it delivered to my house by the same driver. Hell there’s a fair number of brands that’ll send you a 4-pack for S/H only.

But if I buy THC Seltzer from the dispensary, it’s limited to 5mg per can, there’s a limit on how many cans I can buy, I need to present ID and cannot use a credit card.

So weird, to me, that I can buy Rocket-Pop flavored THC Seltzer more easily than I can buy Coffee flavored nicotine snus.

Ohmy god…ops kid is probably fine, VRI responsible.

If he starts hanging out with a kid named Eli tho, be careful. I hear he’s selling crystal meth now. Idk anything about him except that they call him the “ICE man”.

Trumpcorn.

Yes! Thank you! Separating conversation from ambient noise. That’s a part I struggle with.

And my wife wonders why I can never hear her over the air conditioner/sink/etc.

Ditto, I would like to know more.

Whoa whoa I never heard of apd before and it sounds like something I might have.

I hear things just fine…hearing test was good. But I tend to not “hear” things, if that makes sense.

Like sometimes people sound like they’re talking jibberish/mumbled, or it takes a long time to register and I say “what” but I’m just buying time to respond.

There are hearing aids for that?

Why does it say “Trump” in that onions asscrack?

Man the “How to Train Your Dragon” live action sucked (compared to the original…I guess it’d be alright if the animated one was never made).

Now they want to ruin Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs?

I’ll do you one better… https://lemmy.zip/post/55427007

The Who’s didn’t want to enter the conflict, but they had no choice. The hunters were threatening Thidwick, and by proxy, their entire supply of moose juice. King Yertle got what he deserved.

Never forget the battle of the Zax Bypass. I could see it all the way from Mulberry St.

Tough titty.

This looks like a corded model though.

With a corded portable bandsaw, you’ve got to be very careful not to mistakenly cut through the cord. That makes a lot of sparks, and then you have to repair the cord.

You get a lot more power out of corded models but I’d be surprised if there aren’t some quality cordless tools out there.

You’d want to make sure that you’ve got enough battery for the job, but you could do it anywhere, even in the middle of the woods.

Of course, the main reason to maime/dismember the corpse is for ease of transport. It’d be pretty silly to drag the whole body to the woods and then cut it to pieces.

Still, you never know where you’re going to wake up standing over a dead body, so you gotta be prepared.
