And then they completely bork the file system with separate storage for every app. Nobody needs a dozen different folders for storing pictures, with no way to combine them.

Olhonestjim,

Clickspring makes some of the most beautiful, soothing, detail obsessed machining videos imaginable. Dude builds complex gear works from scratch, including a replica of the Antikythera mechanism which is still in progress after many years, though nearly finished now.

Let’s go relive that childhood trauma! It sure would be interesting trying to raise my parents into functional adults at that age. I wonder if they’d give me an exorcism?

Nah, I don’t have to wonder.

Olhonestjim,

I would kill for their bidets everywhere.

I had to work on Thanksgiving and Xmas, multiple states away from everyone I care about, out in the middle of nowhere. Again.

Olhonestjim,

Waste does not have to leave residue behind and stink. We ought to be able to extract more nutrients from digestion, and we could probably make an implant to carbonize waste, compress it into pellets, and even wrap it in a biodegradable capsule before disposal. I do like your point of dealing with hazardous materials.

Olhonestjim,

I’d like to make bodily functions a bit less gross.

Olhonestjim,

How about a system which fully harvests nutrients, then compresses waste into smooth, solid, compact, sterile pellets which leave no residue and don’t smell bad?

Olhonestjim,

It’s the sound of the A-10 Warthog’s main gun. It became a meme over a couple decades of war. “If brute force isn’t working, you’re not using enough of it,” kind of captures the gleeful power and arrogance.

Is there an artist so horrible that no matter how hard you try that you cannot separate their art from them?

Similar to the recent question about artists where you can successfully separate them from their art. Are there any artists who did something so horrible, so despicable, that it has instantly invalidated all art that they have had any part in?

Olhonestjim,

As a vinyl collector, it really feels impossible to completely avoid problematic older bands. So many of them pulled heinous shit, and often the bigger they were, the more opportunities they had to indulge their worst impulses. But how can we study history without acknowledging our ancestors accomplishments and failures?

I figure if they are dead, they can’t hurt anybody anymore, and neither can they benefit. Same goes for buying used.

Olhonestjim,

Hasn’t it been like 30 seconds since we checked that fig tree?

Olhonestjim,

Fuck that. 4 day weekends.

Olhonestjim,

We all live in outer space, out in the middle of nowhere. Everyone ever has, and will. And not a single one of us got a warning of the risks before they roped us all into this. Kinda messed up when you think about it.

Olhonestjim,

Thank you, that clears it up. I saw the movie several times as a kid, and haven’t watched it in a long time. I never made the connection as to why she left the next morning.

Olhonestjim,

If I could buy an implant that compressed my shit into diamonds, I would be so happy.

Olhonestjim,

So did the slaver’s daughters’ dresses.

Flintknapping is extremely prone to finger and hand injuries, and nobody understood infection back then. Probably everyone was making and using stone tools constantly. Might explain things.

Olhonestjim,

I am pretty sure Ben Franklin would be totally into that shit.
