fmstrat,

The article says the messages will go to the cloud but supplies no references. Half of the article is also answers from Bard. What is this garbage?

fmstrat,

Just because you do something so crazy fast in your head it seems obvious, doesn’t mean you didn’t do the thing you did with the thing.

fmstrat, (edited )

Beer. It’s… soft?

Note: Not what acutually happened, but how did they know?

Greenland startup begins shipping glacier ice to cocktail bars in the UAE (www.theguardian.com)

Arctic Ice harvests ice from the fjords of Greenland, and then ships them to the United Arab Emirates to sell to exclusive bars. Using glacial ice in drinks is a common practice in Greenland, and, over the years, several entrepreneurs have unsuccessfully attempted to export it....

fmstrat,

I put this in the cross post, bit figure it belongs here, too:

While ridiculous, there’s interesting context here.

  • Greenland has little to no economy
  • The ice is mined from ice that has already broken away from the glacier, thus not reducing any more than nature has already
  • Cargo ships bringing frozen food used to leave empty, now that same fuel is used to transport ice back instead of going to waste
  • The founder has always dreamed of a sustainable economy for Greenland
  • He is conflicted about how his work to do this in a sustainable way is being taken

Lots of gray here.

fmstrat,

Where is the red spot on the toilet?

fmstrat,

Funny, but mostly true due to timing. You have a lot more sunsets and sunrises outside of work and home than you do on holiday or with the time you are able to take out in nature.

fmstrat,

Cherry picking probably won’t work on Lemmy:

Obama overcame the sunset provisions and made the tax cuts permanent for single people earning less than $400,000 per year and couples making less than $450,000 per year, but did not stop the sunset provisions from applying to higher incomes, under the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012.

fmstrat,

What was this from? As ridiculous as it is, that’s decent effects work.

I might move again. (Or not) (lemy.lol)

I moved from Lemmy.ml because I liked the name of Lemmy.world and it ran a newer Lemmy version which meant I could make communities. I moved from Lemmy.world because they defederated from piracy communities they didn’t even host (but for some reason still kept the small piracy community they DID host) From thelemmy.club...

fmstrat,

Moderation and politics. Many in Lemmy don’t like ML’s stance on issues, including banning and moderating dissenting opinions. World won’t defederate from Threads. Etc. Despite no major user difference, Lemmy is a much more “active” vs passive community in reinforcing their beliefs in what’s right. It’s why many migrated here to begin with.

fmstrat,

While I’m not on world, I also hold off on upgrades. Lemmy is still Alpha, after all.

fmstrat,

Haha, NP, glad I was able to rekindle a fun Christmas memory for you guys. Have fun! And tell them you found it on Lemmy. Get’em on the Fediverse 😉

Found it! New Friends 1981

After a few attempts, the successful Google string was:

“howard” “duck” “frog” -comic “new york”

Edit: By few, I mean my whole morning. Fun puzzle 😉

Edit 2: My work here is done. youtu.be/06kfHOvZdbs

Edit 3: Donate the money to charity, or use it to buy gifts for kids for the holidays!

I use linux for the same reason I wear fuzzy socks and sweaters

My understanding of the history of fashion is that back in the 1950s America it was expected that you wore a suit/dress at work unless you had a different uniform. There were a bunch of very boring people who thought that we should be wearing office job garb all the time, because they wore suits so much it was their default...

fmstrat,

Out of curiosity, why do you feel this way? And what are you passionate about?

fmstrat,

Let me dig up that Ubuntu ISO link right quick…

fmstrat,

Rocket League. And then I’m not chilled.

fmstrat,

For some reason I would love to see this get hundreds of upvotes and just this one comment.

Not a mastodon user, so my comment is useless anyway 😉

fmstrat,

I guess you’ll have to change your username to .sh now.

fmstrat,

While probably a valid enough test, keep in mind Google’s fingerprinting goes well beyond IP and what incognito applies. There’s a reason Tor Browser changes things like browser window dimensions every time you open it.

fmstrat,

Nope. 3 legs and how many slices? It’s for pizza box sag. Former pizza guy.

fmstrat,

I wouldn’t necessarily put that on Amazon coming in. That’s been the trend in all cities over the past 10 years. Even suburban areas are feeling it. Hopefully remote work pushes up populations in smaller towns so other non-remote growth can occur in more affordable areas.

fmstrat,

Joining in because why not. The comment OP never mentioned groceries. They mentioned how it’s impossible to avoid Nestle when eating out/getting take out, which you agreed with.

How do I interpret USB PD2.0 vs PD3.0 PPS (max wattage)?

So I’m doing some testing of USB-C cables using a tester and a constant load (I’ll have another post soon with some questions on this). But before running each test, I’m checking the E-mark chip and then enumerating the charge capabilities of each to see what they report being capable of....
