Damn… I still snowboard in my gear that is over 20 years old. Has it really changed that much? I only go a few times a year so I never wanted to spend the money on new stuff. Lift tickets already cost an arm and a leg.

Oh my fucking god. Thank you!
No no no. White cows make milk. Brown cows make chocolate milk.
Sipping on some whiskey while playing Stray on my Steam Deck and watching the Copa America.
Stray
Binding of Isaac Rebirth
Disco Elysium
Dark Souls Remastered (don’t think it was even on sale, but I have never played a souls game and was told this was a good place to start)
Basically a bunch of big hits that I never got around to. I’m starting with Stray, it’s relaxing and fun. I played a little Dark Souls, but I need to come back to that when I have more time to focus.
I was also looking at Death must Die. I played the shit out of Vampire Survivors, and I’ve heard DMD is more of the same.
Last big StamDeck game for me was Hades 2. Loved the original and 2 was just as fun. I know it’s not fully complete, but I unlocked everything available and upgraded most of the gear all the way. I can’t wait for the full release.
I’m on Lemmy.world because it’s the only instance I could make a account on the day Reddit shut down the API. All of the other popular instances had account creation stopped because of the flood of people.
I could probably make an account on another instance, but I’m pretty lazy. I honestly don’t know what the benefit of using another instance would be.
Oh man, that just reminded me that PB Crisps existed. Fuckin loved those things.
For android it’s power+volume up to bring up the power options menu (shutdown, restart, etc) and there is a “lock down” option that disables biometric unlock.
Wish I could do it with one hand, but good to know it’s there.
Linus was ahead of the game on this one. Nvidia should start building data centers next to public pools. Cool the systems and warm the pools.
I don’t understand why anything anti capitalism these days is automatically communism. It’s such a large swing from one side to the other. I just want my taxes to pay for healthcare, infrastructure, and education instead of wars and prisons. I want to stop getting fucked by corporations that have infinitely more money than I can ever imagine. I don’t think that makes me a communist. I’m just anti-fucking-the-people. Capitalism can fuck people. Communism can fuck people too. I support Corpo-Politico-Celibacism. Stop the fucking.
Edit: Okay, fuck the people. You guys must have this figured out.
Kicks down door
“I’m here to kick gum and chew… Wait…”
BLAM BLAM BLAM
Oh man, that reminds me of the time that I was trying to record a demo for my friends band. They had a PA system, and apparently the 1/4 cable that went from the main speaker to the other carried power. I didn’t know this. I plugged it into the sound card on my PC. I’m super lucky that all it did was fry my sound card. It died so fast.
Sigh…
When I was in the 3rd grade, our class had to do reports on countries around the world and we were all assigned a country. I got Egypt. Coincidentally, some friends of my parents had recently gotten back from a trip to Egypt. My parents asked their friends if there was anything I could bring in to use for my presentation. They let me borrow this little statue they got. It was an eagle with a hat, I think it was a depiction of Horus. It was carved out of some really nice white stone, maybe marble or something? I brought it into school, put it on my desk, and waited patiently to stand up and do my report. When I stood up, I bumped my desk, and the statue fell to the ground and broke in half.
Now monetarily this may not have been the most “expensive” thing, but it was the souvineer that this family brought back from Egypt that they had on their mantle to always remember the trip. It was priceless.
Why the fuck would you let a 7 year old bring your breakable souvineer to school for a class project?
Anyway, those people stopped being friends with my parents after that, so I have a feeling it was either expensive or meant a lot.
This hurts me to think about. Why did you have to ask this question?
I plucked these in my brother in laws backyard yesterday, and this post is now giving me doubts…
Edit: the picture of the morels I found is not uploading for some reason… But yeah, I’m like 99.99% sure they are morels.
“helps me want to eat breakfast”
So my brother used to wake up and slam down like 20oz of water in the morning. He noticed it gave him a huge appetite for breakfast and all throughout the day. Ends up that this is an exersize that competitive eaters do. From my understanding, It stretches your stomach out, and the water drains out pretty quickly leaving it empty and ready for a big meal.
Yup. Just how cable TV started as “you pay extra for it, but you don’t get any ads!” and then when they realized they had everybody hooked, they started showing ads.
Same thing with streaming services. Pay money for a service with no Ads. Oh what’s that? Now that they realize they are your primary source of content, they are going to turn ads on unless you pay extra? Boom, gottem.
I put “Chaotic Neutral Technomancer” as my title at work and HR said I had to change it.
Could you point me in the direction of these sketchy websites? My wife watches a lot of sports and I am looking for a way to stop paying for cable. Most things I have found are very unreliable though.
Damn… Now I want new gear.
Also “I ride almost exclusively in the midwest US, so hard, rough, icy conditions that most people wouldn’t consider snowboarding in are the every day” - I’m in the northeast, so I am very familiar with ice boarding, so I’m sold.
