I stalked this lil guy for a while. I found his black toupé quite charming.

@BenRiceM if a different Tesla collided with it because of the paint :chefkiss:

I keep wondering "why doesn't somebody else just build a good search engine?"

Seems like there's more and more opportunity for such a thing every day:

Suppose it's time for me to give duckduckgo another look (it's never amazed me before, but google results keep getting less and less useful, so who knows).

brunoph,

@swetland in my personal experience, at least when it comes to technical/programming stuff, duckduckgo almost always finds what I need. And when it doesn't, it's very rare Google has better results.

In a few years, when many of Microsoft's successful franchises will be found unprofitable, they'll be closed with a "heartfelt note to our (fans|users|consumers)" with zero consideration of the fact these were all killed by intentional decisions.

Within two years Tesla will be composed entirely of a single lawyer tasked with fielding investor lawsuits and Elon Musk – who at this point will have installed a brain chip so he can tweet every single thought he has straight to the internet (they'll be mostly fart jokes).

The ultra-rich keep using their money and influence to skirt any kind of accountability in their life, when they shouldn't even exist.

@shadowfacts I could see how their etymology might be related, but I wonder if it's a coincidence

@shadowfacts a-ha, that word is till present in modern Portuguese, and it means "to pray". Can't escape Latin.

Oh, hey, I can make lists too. But please, read it and listen to the music before yelling at me:

If that list of 100 albums includes a certain artist, it will piss off a lot of people. And if it doesn't, it will piss off a lot of people. Yay!

Is it possible to change the theme display on mastodon.social? I'd like to change the mastodon image to something else.

I think I may have fixed my iPod video with some white tack lol

brunoph,
@brunoph@breakpoint.cafe avatar

It would disconnect while syncing, corrupting the drive. Sometimes it would also disconnect when I picked it up. I have replaced the HDD with a flash drive adapter, and so my suspicion is that it was too loose in there. So I placed just a tiny bit of white tack between the flash adapter and the metal frame, and… that seems to have fixed it! It's synced over 300 songs with no issue.
