  • Whats a good hobby to get into, as someones whos home alot with a laptop?

    Jump

  • "The gimp's asleep."

    "Well wake him up!"

  • So when you were a kid and didn't like to eat something, you'd give it to your parents. But what do you do with food you dislike as an adult?

    Jump

  • As an adult? I paid for it, I'll eat it. Then I won't order it again.

  • Ive thought about many of things but im unsure if i should try them?

    You should definitely try them. What have you got to lose?

    Since you're a creative sort, why not make zines? Scribus is a free layout tool you could use to build them and there are plenty of free templates available.

  • TIL about Casu martzu, a Sardinian sheep milk cheese that contains live fly maggots

    Jump

  • Well, no. They say if the maggots are dead, the cheese isn't safe to eat.

  • Thank you Sisko!

  • Why would Jesus want a touchdown? Donate half your income to charity if you want to impress him.

  • Andrew Tate is ’too smart to read’ and says books are for ‘slow brains’

    Jump

  • How many times has Andrew Tate been kicked in the head during his career? More than he can count to, I'm guessing.

  • OpenAI Representatives Are Going to Critics' Houses With Threats and Demands

    Jump

  • You are weirdly committed to defending the the giant evil corporation.

  • A handful of blueberries is always good, during the season.

  • When someone's telling you something in great detail that you already know about, do you: A) patiently listen and let them finish?

    Jump

  • Depends who it is. I have neurodivergent friends who can't drop a topic before they've spoken their final thought on it. I'll listen to the end unless they're venting thoughts that should remain private in public, in which case I'll shush them.

    Other people - the first time it happens, I'll be polite. If it keeps happening, no.

  • If the eight planets of the Solar System were renamed, what do you think the new names should be?

    Jump

  • Do we get a veto? Because I want to veto.

  • "So I kept imitating, trying to improve myself. "How can I express it more poetically?

  • Old? 36? When I was 36 I could still stand up without my joints making a noise like glass shattering.

  • TIL there's a whole genre of movies called Mockbusters, movies that bootleg the expensive originals.

    Jump

  • Huh. Never seen one of those in the flesh. I guess they don't travel outside the US much.

    I'm aware of Sharknado, but I though it was original.

  • Why are programmers so rude to beginners?

    Jump

  • I run into people like that at work and what I've discovered is they have no idea they're being rude. Some people in technology are genuinely that out of touch.

  • What's the worst game you've ever had the misfortune of playing?

    Jump

  • Master of Orion III, a 4X game from around the turn of the century. The two previous instalments were fun strategy games. This one was like playing the world's prettiest spreadsheet.

  • What do computer scientists actually do?

    Jump

  • I have a friend with a doctorate in computer science. He writes accountancy software for a living.

    🤷‍♂️

    Although his thesis was on designing hardware to function under a different set of physical laws.

  • TIL you can fry food in a microwave

    Jump

  • How do you heat water for pasta? Do you just fill a saucepan and wait?

  • TIL you can fry food in a microwave

    Jump

  • Most people never learn how to use the power setting to more evenly heat food when needed. Or to add some moisture to keep things from drying out.

    Teach me? I need this skill.
