Oh hey I just finished part 2 of the BtB episodes about them

EDIT: lol that’s part 1 you linked to, I assumed it was Strange Aeons

41.5 C is 106.7 Freedom units. That’s too hot. Yikes.

I bought a beer fridge a few years ago that was a Peltier device and it came with a wall plug and a car adaptor, they’re still around. It worked but if you left it running for a week or so it would freeze the cans. It was lightweight and did the job and I knew the downsides when I bought it.

Modern Pixels are pushing it on portability but maybe I’m just an old man yelling at clouds. My LG G8 is too big for me to fully use one handed and the Pixel 9a that should be delivered later this week is even bigger and I can’t help but wonder if I just spent a lot of money on a downgrade. I don’t want something bigger in my pocket but that’s what I just bought. D:

Graphene on my Pixel tablet has been petty great though, I’m still a bit worried because the phone needs to be able to actually do phone things.

Gadgetbridge actually does some stuff for at least some of the Anker Soundcore headphones. Maybe it covers your use case?

I regret spending so much time playing sports. I didn’t have enough time to figure out what I like and what I’m good at and where those things intersect so now I’m just kinda adrift as an adult. My parents forced me to play though because they were shitheads that thought my not terribly athletic self would get a full ride college scholarship through hard work so I had zero financial support for college as well, I was just glad to escape their manipulative bullshit. The lesson I should have learned was that natural talent beats hard work every time, it sucks.

I was sitting outside of an anime con rave with some friends when people started streaming out of the rave in a hurry. Someone had set off pepper spray in the middle of the crowd. Never fully found out why but the two stories I heard were either that a guy got way too handsy with a girl or someone just did it for the lulz. (Either way it was a bad time for a lot of people and the paramedics had to be called for a few folks.)

Or if you’re born into wealth, CEO is also an option!

I bought a cheap Pixel tablet and flashed Graphene to it a couple days ago. It was easier than modding my 3ds and everyone memes about how easy that is. It’s a bit mind-blowing (and maybe a bit concerning) that a web browser is capable of doing that though.

I think as it is now leftism is an intellectual position, but historically I don’t think that’s always been true, when leftist movements saw more broad popular appeal like during labor organizing there were definitely dumb leftists.

The reason it’s in Republicans best interest to keep people stupid is that stupid people are much easier to propagandize to. Analyzing the information you’re receiving helps make you less likely to fall for blatant lies. (Leftists know we need better propaganda, but it’s also deeply cynical to think we need it.)

There’s an extended version posted on YouTube last month that absolutely slaps.

Still doesn’t explain how they get a beaver from some berries and water.

I saw the one in the 2000s in the theater. I thought it was fun and the subterranean dinos were neat, but apart from that it wasn’t very memorable. But I’ve read the novel and… I’d say the exact same thing about the novel. So it’s a great adaptation. Verne is fun, but Wells had something to say.

Not illogical. I was talking with a friend one night under a tree and had one fall on my face. Super gross.

Hey OP, lemvotes is a thing. And you’re the one downvoter on completely valid criticism here.

I liked seeing a comic grow out of the fediverse, and your comedy was hit or miss but I figured you’d get better with practice and feedback. Your response here shows you’re not going to grow with feedback and you’re always gonna suck.

Yikes. Getting roofied is not something to joke about, the drugs are dangerous and have killed victims. Even if you’re a wild freak into consensual non-consent this wildly misses the mark. Rethink this one.

Yeah but they’re more likely to have their Achilles tendons so there’s that.

A friend of mine had one, I volunteered to ferret sit when they went on vacation. The ferret was adorable but also hyperactive enough that I never want one for a pet.

Yes, but sadly it isn’t going to be very good.

For context, the NES library was actively curated by Nintendo, that’s what their “seal of quality” was about. There were a few bootlegs, but unless you had a niche for that bootleg (see that Bible game) I suspect the complexity and cost of developing for the NES heavily discouraged bootlegs.

I think we gain more than we lose by the lower barrier to game development and publishing, quality indie games can get much more traction (unfortunately many do get buried in the slop) and games with niche marginalized audiences are more able to exist and find that audience now. YouTubers have been a big source of finding indie games for me, and sometimes recommendations from people on social media. I guess I have the opposite problem - I’ve got so much stuff on my wishlist and owned game backlog that I want to play that I’d probably have to spend the next decade of my life just playing games to get through them all.
