waz, to lemmyshitpost in Okay, okay, you talked me into coffee.

Isn’t a raptor a bird?

waz, to memes in They are quite different.

Can I just be anti-using-guns-to-dispute-opinions?

waz, to lemmyshitpost in His true endgame

Am I the only person who was confused because I read penises instead of pennies the first time?

I wonder what Freud would say about this.

waz, to asklemmy in Folks in North America, where do you like to get PC parts online these days?

I built a computer last year. Parts were sourced from Newegg, microcenter, and Amazon.

waz, to asklemmy in What's the funniest mishearing of song lyrics you've had?

Baking Carrot Biscuits != Taking Care of Business

waz, to asklemmy in Good “Buy for Life” Brands

JanSport backpacks. My wife had the zipper wear out on the backpack she has had for ~20 years. She contacted the manufacturer. They don’t make that particular bag anymore so they just sent her a comparable equivalent with almost no questions asked.

waz, to asklemmy in What gifts that you received for Christmas this year are already in the trash?

The one I got has metal gears. They are the main point of frustration. They don’t really make a full rotation without getting bound/jammed up. Slow, fast, or somewhere in-between, it always felt like I was fighting to get the only moving parts to move.

I’ve no problem with simple. I like simple. For me, this thing isn’t simple, it’s frustrating.

Maybe I just got a bad one. A lot of people seem to have an appreciation for it that matches yours. I’d be inclined to exchange it for a different one. Sadly, Amazon refuses to accept it as a returnable item.

waz, to asklemmy in The transition from the holiday season back to the normal drudgery is so depressing. Is there any way to make Jan / Feb less depressing?

Have you tried No Undies Mondays?

waz, to asklemmy in What gifts that you received for Christmas this year are already in the trash?

Whirley-Pop.

Opend it up, realized it was a cheap piece of garbage. Went to return it to Amazon, and apparently it can’t be returnd.

I love some homemade stovetop popcorn, but it is way easier to make and clean up using a regular stainless pot than that POS.

waz, to asklemmy in What hobby do you have that no one else in your family shares?

She’s willing to go camping and will ask me to 3d print stuff for her, but doesn’t really have much interest in being more involved in that.

Generally speaking, she is supportive of all me doing all of these hobbies, just not interested herself.

waz, (edited ) to programmer_humor in 4 billion if statements

…you mean IF you’ve got infinite time to wait?

waz, to asklemmy in What hobby do you have that no one else in your family shares?

RC cars, amateur radio, sailing, 3d printing, cooking/baking, sewing, camping…probably more.

I’d say my kid has a mild interest in some of these, but probably wouldn’t if I wasn’t also doing it. My wife and I mostly just watch tv together.

waz, to linux in Do you mount an embedded Linux file system to the workstation and use your host scripts or do you SSH/SCP and deal with the limited shell commands?

Vim has it’s own way to edit/brows remote files. Checkout netrw:

waz, to asklemmy in What word do you always forget?

Empathy and sympathy. I know they are different, and I know how they are different, but I always forget which is which.

waz, to asklemmy in Honestly - How much will you sacrifice for a better world?

Damn, I feel this comment so much.
