The real scathing insult was just “uninstall”

I literally can’t believe it took us 50 years of ttrgs existing in basically their modern form for us to find the 3 action system. Its so intuitive and liberating compared to every other game system I’ve experienced.

Exactly

Wolf Creek Pass / Pagosa Springs, CO.

My old man was a fan of C.W. McCall, so grew up with his song about it. Randomly had a friend’s family invite me with them to a ski trip there in college. Slopes were solid (my ski experience is very limited, but my amateur ass liked them), and the hot springs were great. First time I ever saw a couple unabashedly and openly smoking a joint in public (this was before state said pot was legal).

There are also well-known entrepreneurs who have lost their lives due to such extortion.

I’d be interested to read more, but I’m not sure I’ve heard about “distant sea fishing” before. Can you pass the articles/links to the stories you’re referencing?

I was thinking like a bear. Big, menacing, kings of the forest. And then they go nap like half the year.

Sounds like the life.

Maybe they’re just paralyzed? I like the lore implications of that. Could be a run plot device to kick off a “why Dracula’s been gone for the last 200 years and suddenly popped up again”

I could just see a division of a larger vampire hunting organization calling themselves “The Campers” who’s whole mission is to find vampires and set up a tent over their resting places.

Well by that logic, if you found a vampire’s lair /tomb while they slept, and then three a tent over it, wouldn’t that cause them to die?

I’m def of the opinion its all about entering a building (not necessarily about being in one).

In this same vein, if a vamp-cop’s partner entered the home, then invited the vamp-cop in, would the vamp-cop be able to enter then?

I need this in green text format

Oh, so that’s what cats are up to when we’re not looking.

The cat is just good at covert operations.

That seems like a particularly poignant concern. Lol, so I’m hearing “possible, but but difficult and undesirable”

Assuming by “jutting pieces” you mean the pins, yeah, I could see that being difficult ultimately to manufacture into the 3.5mm jack configuration.

But translating each pin to a “band” (sorry I’m not very technical myself) on a jack with the form factor of a 3.5mm pin should be doable. You’d probably need 5 or 10 bands since (as I understand it) USBs use a 5 pin connection (again, as I understand it, most devices mirror the 5 pins on each side, but some more advanced/specialized USBs utilized the USB-C connector as 10 pins, hence the possible desire for a 10 band jack).

Again, I could see that being difficult to manufacture, but not impossible, and especially if it became a standard package. Might need a bigger jack than 3.5mm though.

That’s interesting. So there’s no major signal degradation or limit between the two cable sizes? I always assumed it was something like that that would make the larger jack preferable.

Seems serious to me. Is there an obvious reason it’d be a joke / is not to be taken seriously?

I expect theres some technical limitation that wouldn’t be obvious to a layman, but I’d love to learn if you can point to resources.

So I make cold brew in large batches (week supply at a time). I’ve struggled to find a burr grinder that can get me a consistent coarse grind in large enough quantity.

Do y’all have a recommendation for one that can help with this?

I feel the same way. I find it near miraculous I didn’t fall into the trap that’s being sold to young men these days.

I’m hesitant to share too much of my own story, but it makes me feel real sympathy for the guys being ridiculed for following Tate and such. I know the leaders are garbage, but its hard to not feel attacked when I hear the general internet lashing out at the followers for being ensnared.

I know what its like to be young and dumb, to be told you have so much potential, but then to also feel direction-less and like a loser.

I know the leaders are charlatans that are selling snake oil…but I don’t know what to tell these guys to get them unhooked from that crowd.

Yeah, I’m glad most stopped.

I like to share excerpts from Lemmy with my incredibly right-wing family (hopefully to chip away at their staunch beliefs) and its SOOO much easier to share articles/comments when I don’t need to re-write them to exclude all Drumpf mentions. (Those mentions of course cause the person I’m trying to influence to immediately shut down and not read the rest of what I said)
