Memes don’t have to be jokes

I already tried that, thus my frustration. Only so many times you can have them respond in an annoyed manner with that “of course we won’t fuck it up” attitude only for it to be messed up in the same way again

My willingness to creat things for other people.

Less depressingly: the local pizza shop fucked up my order 1 too many times. Faith in them has been destroyed, which sucks cuz they’re a decently priced mom and pop kind of place, but I can only accept a wrong/missing item if I get a refund if it’s not literally half or more of the time I go to your place of business!

We started a business together and after landing our first client together (not one we brought in as a pre existing relationship) we went out drinking to celebrate. We both drank the same stuff, same amounts (and I’ve had far more before), yet I was more fucked than ever, to the point I’m convinced the dude drugged me. I have 0 memory of leaving the bar, going 5 blocks away after calling our ride, gashing my head open (twice), or how I was “so limp I could barely stand let alone walk” none of which sounds like me when I’m drunk at ALL

He also spent that whole time shit talking me to my wife, something he’s previously done to other “friends” he felt were leaving him for significant others

Because OSM doesn’t already do that for them? Every edit is saved under your account, as has been said, they don’t need to do any of that

Paranoia that someone doing something that you’re explicitly allowing them to do makes you look silly, you know

It was cool for a while but my area is mostly done, even with expanded quests it was basically “what is the road surface here” and “what kind of power pole is this” exclusively

I also very much hate the incredibly limited areas you’re allowed to download, a 2x2 city block area size limit made me babe to download like 8 map sections desperately for the rural area I live in, and that’s JUST for the housing part. If I want to include the nearby lake and part it’ll be like 3pl0 more

French press is basically the same work as a drip machine, but a different shape. You just heat the water seperately and then pour it and the coffee into the French press, let it sit, press the plunger down, and pour. Actually takes slightly less time than any cheap dropper I’ve used and runs 0 risk of burning the coffee (drip machines like to put heating elements into their bases to keep the pot hot, this can burn the coffee and ruin the flavor, French presses cannot burn coffee because they cannot add heat)

Espresso is finely ground coffee that uses steam pressure to brew (thus why espresso machines are fucking expensive, my mr coffee unit was 80 buck), it’s an involved process (worth learning gif you’ve got 20m to make a cup of coffee every time) but very good if you use beans you like AND you like your coffee flavor strong

smashing printers with baseball bats

I have years of IT experience, offer Linux support, and am visibly the kind of guy you just know can fix your computer problem (or, if I take my glasses off, I look like I sell weed apparently), and when asked to help with printers I have one answer:

They’re sentient and they hate you. I was trained in IT, not exorcisms. Send it as a PDF, PNG, or smoke signal before you try troubleshooting.

Like, I broke my big office one the other day so bad the tech had to come out. What had I done to brick it so badly? Tap a menu option, tap back, then tap a different menu option. If you don’t wait 3s between the second and third tap it errors and freezes and they have to send a tech out to do some sort of 2 hour long ritual where he rubs it and whispers how sorry he is.

What the fuck is wrong with printers

This remains my #1 complaint every time they send me a “how are we doing” survey

I check, then reply:

Your email app still doesn’t support basic functionality like creating and editing filters, something I had to code for a phone app back in high school

Like, holy shit, the feature exists on desktop why the fuck can’t I have it in the app rreeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Because they found it interesting and wanted to discuss it with people?

Just because it’s low priority doesn’t mean it lacks any interest, we can exist between extremes

Most people would roll their eyes and move on

Quite famously 1% of the community are posters, after all. Who the fuck cares what a normal person would post? OP wanted to

and yet it’s being upvoted because “hooray tribalism” over something as asinine as OS (really kernel) choice.

Lol, it’s being upvoted because most of us recognize the sub and it’s pathetic mod and are laughing at being reminded of them, if the comments are anything to go by

this is a website for posting things

Deep, complex reasons

Giving your vote to an independent or worse not voting at all, just gives more of a chance for Trump to win the election

If you don’t live in one of the 7 states that matter in an election then you can vote your morality, safe in the knowledge that the EC will ignore your input, anyway

Inb4 some dipshit mentions down ballots when we’re talking about the fucking presidential election

I love the arrogance of telling somebody what they mean

You used words that mean something. If your half baked mind has invented new meanings for the word that’s on you, not me

You’ve descended into “I just need to be right” now

I never wasn’t

No point discussing anything.

You’d have to be coherent for that first

I said “like it’s rape or something” - I didn’t say you’re saying it’s “tantamount to rape”

ESL or just pretending like you don’t know those are the same thing?

I’m just talking about the language people use like they’re being personally violated by snaps.

Theyre literally just using the words to describe what is happening, why are you being weird about it?

Getting hardcore incel vibes from your attitude, might wanna work on that

I forget the type of mic but there are mics specifically designed for picking up vibrations from surfaces (I googled it, they’re called surface mics ffs, could probably use a cheap normal mic without a pop filter tho)

If those use USB or 3.5mm, or can be made to, then plug them in and on windows check the “listen to this device” checkbox and boom, you’ll hear what’s coming through that mic. Adjust the sensitivity to your needs, done

On other OSs you can do it too just as easily but I don’t remember what my Linux distro calls it and if you’ve installed Linux you have enough info from my comment to figure it out methinks

Direwolves or similar sentient beasts that otherwise exist in our world (owls and foxes are common tropes for this too)

The idea of something that is basically what we know from our world but with increased stats and communication is really cool

The immediate one that comes to mind because it was a big deal back then is FNAF2

It’s originally used by the game company to denote “this is one of those weird things HE’s making, not our usual games” as a sort of sign of distrust from the marketing department

Meyer was just so good at what he did that it quite quickly turned into a badge of quality instead and the convention stuck

Sequel: a published, broadcast, or recorded work that continues the story or develops the theme of an earlier one.

Just because it tells the story from before the first piece of work does not mean it is not a sequel. Prequel sequels are everywhere and basically always have been
