Loving my @frameworkcomputer laptop, and eagerly awaiting their support for the next @ubuntu LTS. Everything is great for the most part, but I feel like the update, especially to the kernel will smooth over a couple rough edges.

I’ve never seen ‘The Rise of Skywalker’ and I don’t think I ever will.

Tooting to you live from my new @frameworkcomputer AMD laptop!

People who have successfully made a purchase by entering the numbers when the barcode sticker is messed up… what’s it like?

Pro-tip: don’t use a weight on an automatic turntable, or at least not on the Audio Technica AT-LP60X. It pushes the platter down into the auto-return mechanism and triggers it. Going to give my weight to a friend with a manual turntable.

ateriath,

@Dylan I haven’t noticed any benefit to be honest. I bought it purely because I thought it looked cool. I suppose it could help with some warped discs, but the benefit is minimal.

If I ever find myself in a room with the developer who works on Word’s tables and numbered list functions, I will be going to jail.

When I call someone for the first time, whether or not they have bothered to set a greeting for their voicemail, rather than leaving it as a robot voice saying their number, has a profound effect on how competent I judge that person to be.

I won’t be watching tonight’s GOP debate. If I wanted to watch a bunch of invertebrates gathered together, I could visit the Aquarium.

ateriath,

@georgetakei George, most fish have backbones. Let’s not degrade them by comparing them to Republicans.

    ateriath,

    @jcrabapple @bazkie I took a month of coffee some years ago and found it just made me sad not to have coffee. Didn’t sleep any better, didn’t feel less anxious, didn’t feel less alert, just felt like I’d like a cup of coffee.

    Arghh.. again my mom got scammed online because she bought something from a store that’s known for scamming :nkoFacepalm2:

    Seriously 1 search result down is all the info she needs..

    I give up. No matter how many times I try to explain in all forms, or let her ask me first to be sure she just keep falling for it😟

    This is the 3rd or 4th time this year alone

    ateriath,

    @stux Maybe she doesn’t get to buy stuff online anymore. She can go to the shops and spend cash or go through you to get it first.

    Since orange juice gets shortened to OJ, shouldn't apple juice be AJ?
    :blobcatthink:

    ateriath,

    @SrRochardBunson Wait, is this why I keep getting odd looks when i ask for blueberry juice?

    ateriath,

    @SrRochardBunson I’m just curling my hand into a C-shape and moving it back and forth toward my pursed lips. What could that possibly pantomime other than sipping from a glass?

    I haven't posted as often and I am not sure why

    ateriath,

    @joel Because there’s no addictive algorithm to draw you back here. It’s a feature, not a bug. Post and interact when it serves you.

    PSA: Don't store your stacked flat to the attic roof.

    I should clarify, I took the picture and a coworker found it at an estate sale.

    I did NOT store it that way! 😅

    When are we going to get a Wolfenstein game about Trump?

    ateriath,

    @BlackAzizAnansi Do I just Venmo you the preorder money? Is there a kickstarter? What do you need, man?

    Quite the storm happening here right now. Very loud thunder and tons of rain. Anakin is not happy!

    ateriath,

    @jcrabapple oh no… it’s heading my way… and the grill coals have been lit!

    ateriath,

    @jcrabapple luckily it was fish so it was quick

    jcrabapple, (edited ) to random

    Do you drink coffee only in the morning, or throughout the day?

    ateriath,

    @jcrabapple If I don’t keep drinking coffee, I start to get blood in my caffeine stream.

    Quick.

    Which part of this headline will outrage republicans?

    ateriath,

    @flexghost “Bridge”. Republicans hate infrastructure spending.

    I have so many people to thank for this

    ateriath,

    @ernie I get the reminders that I still have like $13 in ‘Bucks bucks left, even though it doesn’t expire. At this point, I think I’m happier being a red number on their balance sheet than I would be getting their coffee.

    “rife with child-abuse material.” https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/07/24/twitter-rival-mastodon-rife-with-child-abuse-material-study-finds/

    ateriath,

    @w7voa
    This is like saying web browsers are rife with child abuse material. Yea. If you use it for that.

    Boost if you remember coming with free tractor feed paper with hearts and stars!

    ateriath,

    @paulrickards My folks actually used to print these cards, AND SELL THEM.

    Ease us out of the weekend, Mr. Twin…




    ateriath, to music

    How have I been sleeping on LCD Soundsystem for all these years…?

    ateriath,

    @Jaycee I know! I had heard of them, but only got into them recently when my brother said he was going to see them in concert. Now I’m hooked.

    They got big right when I was finishing college/starting grad school so I think I just was too buried by school to notice new music at the time.
