I removed the fish from my bladder, obviously, he’s typing these comments.

Sooo… Hurricane Katrina was both a warm weather blizzard and avalanche. Gotcha 👍
- Comment on A flood is a warm-weather blizzard. 5 days ago:
Only if the water comes from the sky.
If the water mostly comes in from the shores, it’s more like a warm weather avalanche.

And then a week later we have idiots playing with loud and colorful explosives, in an apparent effort to scare all the animals and start forest fires…

Just wait until they find out about the Easter Bunny. That poor rabbit has to lay millions of eggs just for one silly day…
- Comment on Why isn't it considered vegan to harvest animals who die naturally? 1 week ago:
I’ve wondered about this myself since like age 7, when our otherwise perfectly healthy horse Sissy got struck by lightning while standing under a pine tree out in the field in a storm. 😢
Living out in deer hunting country, they could have given the neighbors a shout and basically be like hey the meat’s fresh, y’all come help cut it up and stock like 10-20 freezers for free…

Honestly it is a bit busy, like feature creep.
The lower stock and left bow are unfortunately now broken, but I want to do my best to restore it eventually.
I’ve already collected feathers and a new rifle scope, I just need an antique Volkswagen spring leaf…
Yeah you think this is a witch stew, but it isn’t. These are the parts I need to properly fix my dad’s invention.
- Comment on Screw it, I’m installing Linux 1 week ago:
LOL, I’ve actually tried Ubuntu, Fedora, Puppy Linux, DSL, Tiny Core, and even the true outlier (not quite Linux or Unix though) Microsoft Xenix before. I’ve probably even tried a couple other distros before but only very briefly.
I settled on Linux Mint as my daily runner, but one of these days I might have to give TempleOS a spin in a virtual machine…
- Comment on Screw it, I’m installing Linux 1 week ago:
You act like the everyday user knows how to boot from alternate sources.
BIOS/UEFI/Secure Boot anyone?
- Comment on Screw it, I’m installing Linux 1 week ago:
BREAKING: Man breaks Linux, installs another distro, and lives happily ever after.

Oh good, apparently my late father’s Folding Crossbow isn’t a restricted patent…

I still posess the prototype, albeit a bit damaged now.
- Comment on Do you think there would eventually be technology to delete/replace memories (like the *Men In Black* device). How much do you fear such technology? (like misuse by governments/criminals) 1 week ago:
There have been a very rare few survivors of it. Very rare indeed, but yeah the survivors ended up losing all their memory.
- Comment on Do you think there would eventually be technology to delete/replace memories (like the *Men In Black* device). How much do you fear such technology? (like misuse by governments/criminals) 1 week ago:
A medical lab controlled case of Rabies, where they make sure it doesn’t actually kill you, would erase all your memories.
No selective memories to erase though, more like just wiping the slate clean, and you’d have to learn to walk, talk, and wipe your ass again.
Highly not recommended, but I bet that’s been secretly tried more than once…

You’re welcome.
- Comment on Testing the CPU and RAM boards from the badly damaged Apple Lisa 1 week ago:
Damn, that’s hella corrosion!
That wouldn’t stop me though, I already have half an arsenal of techniques stemming from salvaging flood damaged and house fire damaged boards. I’d probably try to tackle such boards something like this…
- Ultrasonic cleaner with vinegar
- Rinse thoroughly and empty the vinegar
- Ultrasonic cleaner with baking soda and water
- Rinse thoroughly and empty the soda water mix
- Spray the boards thoroughly with WD-40
- Pressure wash the boards
- Air compressor to mostly dry
- Heat the boards with a hair dryer to finish drying
Then it’s obviously a matter of good luck, inspection, testing and tackling any particular issues that the above process didn’t quite clean up. I like dude’s use of phosphoric acid, but I’d rather keep away from the extra strong chemicals until the end stages as spot cleaning only.
It would be cool to see if he ever manages to actually get all the boards running again. Obviously they’ll need new capacitors and some soldering touchups and whatnot, but still these are rare relics of the past…
