I used to love Erector Sets. And blending them with LEGO and junk parts to make shit that did “something.” Now, I just work on diesels, drink whiskey and fish.

There’s a podcast called Fish Nerds that began long ago, more than ten years, now. It all started with a couple guys that decided to catch and eat every legal fish in New Hampshire. About 48 species, if I remember correctly. The host, Clay Groves, did catch and eat a sturgeon, although I’m not sure if it was in the original 48 fish or something he did later on, it’s been a lot of years. But, the guy is absolutely helpful to the point of obsession, I believe. I think if you reached out to him, pretty sure it’s fishnerds@gmail but, check that before writing, I could be wrong on the address, he’d be overjoyed to give you the best opinion I think you could get on this question. And it’s a damn good podcast, too.

I do a lot of fishing for food, myself, so I’m really interested in what a sturgeon stroganoff would be like! Sounds fuckin wonderful to me!

Shoot the guy an email, or email it as a question to the pod, I think it would be a great mailbag question on a really interesting subject. And you’d be asking a guy that’s okay as to eating fish. And the most notable fish eater and sustainability freak I can think of.

Kid I used to work with said:

“Hand me that torch. Can’t be seized-up if it’s dripping out in the floor.”

Pressurized airline fitting was just straight whoopin his fuckin ass…

I think he wore sunglasses in the shop so he could never see the lightyear-wide greenhorn shitstain he left in his wake. Been three years and I still find one of his fuckups every now and again. His tech manual for every vehicle was the top two or three hits on SploogeToob…

He’d definitely have that lid, the container it’s in and everything else in the lab turned to pure watery shit by now… “What do ya mean it’s contaminated? I used a thousand dollar MATCO grinder!!!”

Oddly enough, I miss that little motherfucker every now and again. He was definitely entertaining.

Yeah, you know he drove a fuckin Miata. Convertible…

Sweet bastard. Fuckin love the guy. The Hobbit was required reading in third/ fourth grade. I ended up reading the rest because it was fuckin good shit.

Quit raping trees, motherfuckers. Shit ain’t cool at all.

Good shit. Thanks

Coolest thing I’ve seen in a while! Jack Black and the Junior Freedom Fighting Army!!

I’d fuckin love to be able to see that. Would’ve had to put The Writ in there, though… That damn song had literally everything in it.

Joan Jett. Orioles, though… She’s to cool to be a Cubs fan.

Check out Clickspring on YouTube. He’s literally rebuilding the Antikythera Machine. Hell, reach out to him, he may be interested in helping you out. If nothing else check out the many videos he’s done detailing the clockwork of the thing. All his videos are pretty good. It’s interesting as fuck, anyways. Good luck, I dig the idea.

Hell yeah. I run Debian, too…

Don’t know if it exists in lemmy, but on the old platform there was a thread called r/DebianInTheWild (or something similar) that would’ve loved this.

Debian is a GNU/Linux operating system and the Debian logo is very similar to this. I do know that there’s a lemmy for Debian, though. They’d probably dig it anyways.

Very groovy.

Being a fuckin combat vet… I’d say we’re doing alright. And,… John Brown was a hell of a man.

But, if you need a club to stand for what’s right… Then you’ve still got a ways to go. You’re still those we’re fighting for; rather than those fighting with us…

But I’m damn glad to see ya getting a little bit closer all the time.

Ever onwards, ladies and gentlemen. Ever onwards.

Fuck… I hope not…

#!.. That’s the right symbols! Knew it was something similar. One of my first, as well. Ran Fedora for a short while, then moved to Ubuntu for ~a year, then onto trying my own flavor of stock Debian. #! did such a better job than I could, and then at (or near) the end of#! I found BunsenLabs, which is my overall favorite. Even gave Arch and Gentoo a real effort for a while. Always came back to BunsenLabs. Learned a huge portion of my Linux knowledge from those old #! forums. A true wealth of information there. Really looking forward to giving the new BunsenLabs a tryout when I catch the time.

Anything changed since '03/'04?

I was just reading up on that very thing. I may have a chance to try it one evening this week.

Thank you.

You’re my damn hero of the day! I haven’t checked their site in years! Maybe should’ve gave it a search before asking… Thank You! I’m definitely gonna try it out! And I’ll definitely let the Linux thread know how it’s going Again, thank you!

Yeah! I remember Crunch#. It’s how I found BunsenLabs. Always had really great documentation forums, too. Tried the ++, just liked BunsenLabs better.

Looks like a fine alien to take on a bass fishing trip…
