If something is worth doing, it’s worth doing well.

Said by a friend who, in the late 90s, copied a dozen albums to minidisk for me. He named all the albums and track names using a remote to select each letter one by one. It must have taken him many hours to do it. But he wanted to do a good job. Up up up up A right, up up up up up f, etc etc. Utterly tedious but he wanted to do a good job.

Edited to add:

One Punch Man first season is hilarious.

The trifecta of 2010s animation: Regular Show, Steven Universe, and Adventure Time. There’s jokes and themes in these that are pretty adult, but the darker stuff is generally avoided.

1980s: Dogtanian and the 3 Muskehounds. Mysterious Cities of Gold. Best theme tunes ever, and very easy watching.

What VPN do you use and why?

If you are a pirate VPN is an essential tool. I am trying to ascertain the popularity of various VPNs in piracy community. In this excerise, I will list several Popular VPNs in the comment if you use one of them just upvote that comment and reply the reason. If you don’t find your VPN listed add a comment with just their name....

Mullvad because they don’t need your name, and you can pay by cash anonymously.

Not our cleaning robot, but our wifi enabled air fryer is called PHILIP J AIRFRY.

Getting a notification that my food is ready makes me smile every time.

If I had a wifi enabled toilet or toilet cleaner, I’d name it Lucy Liubot.

Have you read Project Hail Mary?

Yeah, you’re right. They’re trolling.

They’re more persistent than the usual low effort stuff, and they’re providing so much down vote bait.

I’m sure they’re having fun, but I wish people wouldn’t take these threads at face value like the discussion is real.

Because the rich have spent 2 centuries entrenching themselves in power, and literally everyone else won’t do a thing about it.

We’re all so apathetic that the impending collapse of our ecosystem is viewed with a shrug. When it should be met with torches and pitchforks in the street, and Madame Guillotine for the rich and powerful.

Nobody gives a shit because they’re all waiting for someone else to do something.

I mean in the context of the USA. But yeah you are absolutely right.

The more sensors the better. I want a motherfucking tricorder.

I stopped talking to mine when he went batshit because I wouldn’t help him get onto Tor/darkweb. He wouldn’t say why he wanted to access it, and he got angry when I said I didn’t want to get involved.

Then he accused me of being a “tony blair lover” which is kinda bizarre to me because I don’t live in the UK anymore.

It was a very strange interaction!

Fellow Extreme Weather Lemmings, what are your Buy it for Life winter boot suggestions?

We got my husband some Helly Hansen boots the year before last and we noticed a hole in them last year. I am right pissed. If I’m dropping hundreds of dollars on boots, I expect to get my money’s worth. What are your awesome boot suggestions to help me do just that?

I really like my Keen winter boots. They’re warm enough for the worst Michigan can throw at me.

AKA my zombie apocalypse truck. You could stick a fair sized RV in the bucket and live there.

This isn’t quite what you asked, but The Mist has a black and white version that is apparently very good.

What do you feel from watching it? What exactly about it appeals to you?

With the issues that Lemmy clients have blurring content, and the problems some people have marking things NSFW or NSFL, I think that gore should be kept to its own instance.

That was a really good read! Eye opening, too.

As a partially disabled man, unable to run and too weak to fight, I’m on guard a lot. It’s fucking exhausting. Yet it’s still a tiny fraction of what women experience. The entirety of unwanted attention and actions against women is too much to really comprehend for men.

What change can we make as men that will be a rising tide, lifting both men and women?

Apart from death and taxes, I think maybe drama is the 3rd universal constant.
