My parents are still very Mormon, which means being openly bigoted is bad manners. That said, I don’t think I ever visit without my dad saying something about climate change being a hoax, illegals voting in California, wildfires being part of some AntiFa conspiracy, etc. Can’t tell whether he sincerely believes this nonsense or is just trying to get a reaction. I try not to engage other than asking where he learned about it and how he’s tried to fact check it. These discussions are not productive, and I don’t visit unless it’s a major holiday or someone’s birthday.

I bought an $800 half stack guitar amplifier in 2009 and rarely play with the volume above 1, let alone play shows with it. But it looks neat.

Weird that I see this while listening to a podcast about wild pigs on the Auckland Islands. Googling made me realize NZ isn’t north of Australia like I’d remembered

When I stare and blink my eyes I see Joe Pesci, maybe from how I was raised.

The AI lied to me, as I booted a Fedora/Gnome VM and couldn’t find that option. My only other guess would be maybe an extension like this was installed and forgotten about because I tend to do that

Anyone who has read a single NTSB accident report will understand what an insane idea this is.

After using some grandfathered T-Mobile family plan for over a decade I moved us to Tello. Still the same towers, but with our usage it’s half the price.

And then convert that to hexadecimal, making it 1DA06

Bragging about how bad their gas mileage seems like the redneck’s version of inserting vacation and cruise stories into conversations

In OP’s case it sounds like the VPN service is the whole reason they’re using it. Not that I would recommend it, as their corporate IT likely has a policy against exactly this sort of thing

Maybe I will

Really liked how you worded that. It reminded me of this video about afterlife I rewatch when I’m having an existential crisis. One quote from the video,

“Ironically enough the only part of me that is immortal, for all intents and purposes, is my material body. Because after I die, and after our Sun dies, and after the planetary nebula it leaves behind fades away, every atom of me will be recycled back into the universe. Ultimately becoming part of other planets and stars. We are originally star dust literally, and we will be star dust again.”

Is there a source for this quote? My googling failed me
