Thought today was the perfect weather to take my ebike out and enjoy nature. After two hours of drama servicing it, started it up and there’s a power distribution error code. An hour into trying to fix it myself, I gave up and spent 45 minutes jamming it into my tiny car. Called around and all the repair joints are booking out to July.
April 25th is bullshit.
That was the exact moment I gave up on streaming services, as well.
I heard a theory that the reason it persists is because there are people out there who get practically no fiber in their diets, and eating some beans at Taco Bell is enough to shock their systems.
I was playing an old version of Trivial Pursuit, and it asked “Which of these actors never played Batman?” with the answer of “Ben Affleck”. That’s no longer true, though, so it was a whole thing.
I was a little sad when I saw the second one that you didn’t have a whole series of these.

News@lemmy.world•Trump says he will 'remember' companies that don't seek tariff refunds
5·5 days agoMy company made me separately log every tariff charge on my credit card recently, and I wasn’t sure why until I saw this post.

11·6 days agoI miss the “but never zero” memes. Maybe I’ll start flooding lemmy with them personally.
I had to go through the Atlanta airport shortly after the “4 hour wait” stories started hitting. I showed up 3 hours earlier than normal to be safe, and when I got there they had every station manned and ICE was basically just waiving everyone through. Took me about 2 minutes to get through security.
Kind of illustrates how pointless TSA is in the first place, but I’d rather have had that four hour wait than have to be within 50 ft of ICE.

Centurii chan@sh.itjust.works•I love them asian burgers.English
6·8 days agoSo there several restaurants near me with those xiaolong bao dumpling that are filled with pork and soup. At each place they’re the star dish, and the waiters love to tell you all about how you are supposed to put the dumpling on one of those terrible spoons and puncture it, so the soup will leak out and you can have two discrete bites, one of soup and one of dumpling.
But, like, they’re big savory gushers. If you let them cool a bit and eat them whole in one bite, it’s like a big flavor explosion. I don’t understand why it’s so popular to downgrade that experience, to the point where the waiters tell you it’s the “right” way. Maybe my mouth is bigger than average or something.

Batman TAS is unbelievably good. Gets a little better every time I rewatch it.

Games@lemmy.world•Playnix: Boutique Linux PC released with better gaming performance than Valve Steam MachineEnglish
4·8 days agoAlso, I am pretty sure the steam machine is smaller than I was able to achieve in my efforts to make a tiny gaming PC for the living room. That kind of thing can only be done at great effort.
Yeah, the razor definitely matters. My rockwell razor has different bottom plates to slightly alter the angle so you can hone in on a better shave. Some experimentation helps a lot.

5·9 days agoLike you, I am almost completely unaware of anything said or done by the Kardashians, and I love that for both of us.
Also hanging out usually costs money. I keep inviting people I’m work friends with to stuff, and they always have to check their budgets.
Once I was in the bathroom of this upscale theater following a Shakespeare play, when a very sharply dressed older man who exuded an aura of intelligence came in and approached a urinal. He dropped his pants and underwear all the way to the floor, raised his shirts with both of his hands and held them above his exposed nipples, then pushed his hips as far as he could into the urinal to piss hands-free. The incongruity of what I was seeing left me stunned, and made me forget to pee until he had completely left the bathroom.
Infosec seems like a depressing job to be in atm.





I went with Mint recently as an initial attempt at linux. It’s clearly not the right distro for me, even a little bit of effort and I would surely find a better option. Still, my bar for success was just “better than windows”. I hit that easily, so I’m very happy and probably going to coast on Mint for quite a while.
It’s so nice not having forced updates, or “Yes/Remind Me Later” popups, or stupid AI features I constantly have to turn off like I’m playing whack-a-mole. My OS is just the same every time I log in. You hear that?… Silence…
