IT Nerd of 30yrs and avid hobbiest of genealogy, geology and science in general.

  • Like many of us slaves to the keyboard, I wanna be as far away as possible from electronics come bedtime to let my brain rest. Even in bouts of insomnia, I refuse to let that tether latch on; It's not healthy.

  • Oh hell no, that fucker is on a docking station as far away from me as possible come bedtime.

  • Welcome to Utah ...

  • Oh come on, at least post a picture of a good one. 1989 Swatch Phone:

  • I immediately thought of 15th century hand cannons and had a 'hmmm' moment myself. Not even sure those were the first.

  • Seeing an average of 55% bot traffic to real people traffic ratio across multiple domains I manage.

    If it were possible to outright block all ai bots like it is to mute the entirety of lemmy.ml, I would sincerely do it.

  • Wait, you're telling me we don't have a return plan EITHER?

    Head exploding...

  • You're holding it wrong.

  • Fair. I had a used '83 Cimarron 1.8T in 1994. It was an absolute slug, basically chewed through alternators and water pumps on a quarterly basis, but honestly wasn't horrible for a first car.

    Aztec was fugly as hell though.

  • I think the Pontiac Aztec was worse tbh.

    The Cimarron was basically a Chevy Cavalier and it worked. I know, it was literally my first car.

  • Same. I have a 2016 Subaru Outback that I wouldn't mind giving to my daughter, but like hell am I buying anything connected to the Internet and tracking my every drive (for profit). Slate and to a lesser degree: Rivian are my only EV choices right now.

  • Sooo BMW drivers are gonna drive like bigger assholes now?

  • Sorry, was in a hurry to GTFO of work when I posted, but yes, it was a limited run on etsy. I'd reach out to the maker and ask for them to do another run though.

    Have an awesome weekend!

  • FORD is just an acronym for: Found On Road Ditch

    Rightfully so too.

  • At least they got a water bottle...

    It could have originated from the St Petersburg Wildberries Warehouse and never arrived at all.

  • Why wait until she's not paying attention?

  • Potato Chips and Corn Nuts are fantastic snacks everyone should eat during the movie...

    Especially if you wash them down with a nearly empty drink using a straw.

    I'll see my way out.

  • I had to look that one up lol:

    In traditional Southern moonshining culture, a raccoon penis bone (scientifically called a baculum, and colloquially known as a "coon pecker" or "Alabama toothpick") is inserted directly into the copper output spout of a still.
