I replaced most of the lights in the basement, rewired stuff so it wasn't switched on the neutral leg anymore too (seriously, who does that?). Pretty sure I had to deal with some sort of FNG today, I was getting all sorts of weird questions. (Note: These are all standards, if someone at the level this dude is supposed to be at is asking these kinds of questions...um....yeah.)
"Hey, what the hell kind of security screw is this?"
"Um.....it's a Phillips #2, although if you push hard enough a Phillips #1 might also work."
Somehow, that wasn't the mist bizarre question out of someone who really should not have been asking questions like that today.
I did get my full wellness reward at work, so my wife and I used part of it to get new heart rate chest straps so that's kind of exciting.
It's 0°F outside, feels like -18°F, but the dew point is -14°F so my Garmin watch is describing it as "pleasant."
I feel like there's some joke I'm missing.
Man, I needed a reminder on what SodaStream even was, I assumed they went bankrupt years ago. Thanks for the context.
Not buying a SodaStream: Antisemetic
I think I need context for this.
I remember being taught this kind of shit, but like 3/4 of the class just didn't give a shit.
It's like my classmates who sometimes say they wish they were taught how to do taxes. We were, it was literally part of high school economics, it was a required class, we literally filled out the exact federal and state tax forms they now say they don't know how to handle. It was a required exercise in a required class to fucking graduate.
Ugh, I'm getting a bunch right now that are like "we can help with SEO" and "let us fix your codebase" and "we can help with payroll."
I'm a design engineer for plastic injection molded parts, exactly none of those are anywhere near what I handle, I wouldn't even know who to direct them to if I had any interest in directing them anywhere, stop fucking emailing me.
I was going to say 2112, but that's honestly scifi.
You will have to admit that concentration camps …
texas has started construction on such a facility and it will be the first in this nation; so give it time
It's at least a century too late to be the first in the nation.
My wife and I hosted Christmas this year. Least drama Christmas ever due to excluding a certain someone. Also, wife wanted to do a prime rib, first prime rib she tried and she absolutely knocked it out of the park. Perfectly seasoned, and so perfectly cooked that most people were cutting it with the side of their forks. Also, she did a couple amazing raspberry cheesecakes.
Mmmm....oooh........sorry, your tax bracket doesn't cover that I'm afraid.
Edit: Better wording of basically the same joke.
Gummy Shai-Xylitol
I thought I'd be sticking with Subaru after how awesome my Impreza has been. Unfortunately the Soltera/BZ4X is a complete joke.
Instead I'm hoping that I can hold out long enough to actually get this thing.
I can't check because I'm at work, but is that the Tom Scott video?
At least, I think I remember him doing a video on that thing, maybe it was just someone kind of like him.
Isnt train+bus just a streetcar?
I think this is about as likely as other conspiracy theories: not at all.
Yeah, I know, but hoping is more fun than not.
Conspiracy time:
What if it's a duo / group and they intentionally got someone caught who will have a rock solid alibi after letting investigators waste days on him, but also getting other bits and pieces of message out the entire time?
