Late response now that I have some more money to work with but thanks! Tbh most of my tools are harbor freight and I don't think I need anything else for my usecase. Grandpa bought a dewalt set as he's tearing his deck down to build a pavilion. He told me to stop buying stuff and handed me a 70s craftsman tool box filled with most stuff I need and said to just use his power tools

I just had to use my job's OEM device to connect to our new contactor's site since it doesn't work with my machines for some reason (standard deb stable and a popos machine). When I boot into it the lock screen was so overwhelming with weather info, news and other junk I just had to laugh. Its crazy how much junk you need to disable to have a usable device. I haven't really seen vanilla windows for awhile, but it seemed like Vegas slot machine with how many notifications I was getting.

Everyone is 1 of the 10000. Even the people who have to look up what being 1 of the 10000 means

I know I'm not the standard pokemon fan, but showdown still exists if you just like to battle. The in-game gameplay of pokemon has always been a little lackluster to me and I don't like VGC/doubles.

ROM hacks can be fun, and I have done some self imposed challenge runs. I can't see myself finishing any of the Prof oak challenges I did without emu speedup.

Yesterday I type "what" into my search engine and within the top 5 was "what is a tariff". Import tax would make too much sense and people wouldn't stand behind it if it was referred to as such.

I get that tariff is the correct word and I understand what they are, but I am sure people like my dipshit cousins had no clue until a few days ago.

Damn I remember that one now!

I find family guy clips with a slime squishing video underneath to be better for readability

Depends on where they are printed

Thank you for reminding me of the poet laureate of the west. Now I'll have "Vampire, vampire with teeth as sharp as barbed wire" stuck in my head again after a few years free from it.

We can say whatever the hell we want

OK who gave Luigi a flower?

Of course not. Nothing kills them

US workers had the day off to do other stuff than scroll Lemmy at work

I would say you are kinda right, but working help desk for a few years taught me there are still a ton of dumb ass millennial users.

I watched a documentary (Dear Kelly) this weekend and he showed up in it for a few minutes. The whole time I was saying his face looked too big after years of mainly seeing edits

Ive been using redlib to browse hobby and TV show subs for awhile now and I like it better than old on mobile for readability. Theres a list of public instances on their github if anyone doesnt want to selfhost or test it before spinning it up themself.

But yes old.reddit redirector and ublock origin always get installed on Firefox right away.

Edit: I installed https://libredirect.github.io/ on my devices and life is good. You might want to shop around for default instances for all the sites you have active, or host your own to avoid throttling
