Oh. Add it as a weight on the arm, probably.

… Tell me more about this penny trick.

I feel like I missed something in my childhood!

Not a wizard, but I’m finding my docker configuration of paperless-ngx to meet my minimal needs.

The estimate I’ve seen is that cards won’t be coming until 2026, otherwise yeah, this would be an easy choice.

(East) Berlin would dispute the example for Deutschland. Ampelmann is an icon.

My partner has one - and still loves it while on the fourth of a few models (over seven years). I can barely use it – my fingers are too large. The camera isn’t great and the white balance is just incorrect.

The battery life is understandably atrocious. But – it is TINY.

This is a good summary of my experience of both Speed Racer and Jupiter Ascending (although the latter has Eddie Redmayne chewing scenery like it was going out of style).

Not that bright, but REALLY cute.

The bill has a poison pill – it allows Trump to shift funding. So yes, judges on vacation bad, but the bill effectively authorizes the behavior of the meme department.

I had thought this was a photoshop. WTH.

I thankfully walked out of the room, but overheard part of a press conference where Trump was ladeling the blame on the FAA’s DEI policies; how the FAA was hiring disabled people and that lead to this crash.

I need to find an alternate radio station for my dog to listen to. No one should have to hear that bullshit.

I still think about the episode where John walked into his stock trader and randomly bought rights to some kind of seafood (shrimp, I think), explains why, then sells it – at a huge profit. It was this little moment that explained why John could just “do stuff” and didn’t need a job.

Also, it made my hate working forever, but I don’t know enough to not have to. Yet.

… Bourbon??

My universe has just expanded.

Small correction, only discovered when I moved across the country: there are two factories producing Girl Scout Cookies – and the recipes have overlap, but each production company has a few unique ones. So sometimes I have to order from my niece rather than my neighbor.

Some of them are the same everywhere, though.

Monster of the Week? Anything Powered by the Apocalypse is going to be much stronger in Game Master support and explanations than D&D. If you want something friendlier there are also games like Yazeba’s Bed and Breakfast that has no focus on combat. Wanderhome, as well – albeit that one isn’t modern. You’ve got a lot of options, don’t be fooled by Hasbro!

Hate the idea of the former in a private setting, would like in a business setting. Absolutely adore the idea of directions (drove a car with a “heads up” display but it only integrated with the dreadful in-car navigation system and yet it was still awesome)… But player stats dangling over people’s heads? That maybe my kid without AR glasses wouldn’t be able to see and I could be the cool parent again? Awesome.

Ed Shearing

Nepotism. There’s some story I heard about how he coach surfed in California until he got a contract, and I figured he must have SOME talent, then found out he was staying on Jamie Foxx’s couch, so clearly some he knew someone…

Except unfortunately my 30 second Wikipedia fact check shows he didn’t. He met Foxx because he was invited to be a guess on Foxx’s show and must have made a good impression. He did make seemingly the hardway; he started out as a working musician working with other musicians and worked his way up. Didn’t hurt that he got a positive review from Elton John early on, but the guy apparently has something.

Damn. I thought I figured it out…

This is what I get for not defining my acronyms.

Original NES Metroid was the second game I ever beat, after Super Mario Bros. 3.

Oh, did you mean Brock “The Rapist” Turner? I heard he raped an unconscious woman because he’s a terrible human being and also a rapist.
