Ngl, I use mine almost every day.
My car is old enough that I can replay with no desync, I use it to keep my car running and locked when it’s cold and I pop in for some food on break at work, or if my remote dies; it has every remote in my house in it, xbox one, my living room tv, my bedroom tv, my workshop CRT with the lost remote, my ceiling fan, and can be used on all other IR or (almost all) subghz devices I encounter; my local bar was real loose with the touchtunes remote one tuesday afternoon when I totally wasn’t in to copy specifically that (I gave the bartender rides home when she had a DUI, they’re cool with me) and I was able to copy it, now I can control the volume outside (among other things but I’m responsible with my powers, I only skip Rick Springfield and Don McClean); a couple of my friends no longer need to worry about giving me keys when I feed their cat because RFID, and I “have” a gym membership now (the gym allows sharing, probably not specifically cloning but they’ll never know); I can send myself Pokemon Silver mystery gifts on the GBC, and I have a GPIO board with a link cable to trade pokemon in too; marauder/evil portal is a little too malicious for me but it’s neat, and flipperHTTP is cool too; some of the GoodUSB stuff is cool; I have a 2gb flashdrive image on it I can use in a pinch; and tbh I’m sure there’s more I left out.
Though yeah “we don’t even have a baby dept in this location” and “since when are our CVS announcements in spanish?!” are priceless lmao.

PLA+ is too bendy, confirmed. It “works” but I needed to use a separate tool like a tension wrench to turn the lock.

My stepmom “paid her way through college bagging groceries.”
College tuition now: 30,000/yr
7.25 (min wage) x 30 (never give full time because laws) x 52 (weeks in a year): 11,310/yr before taxes.
Thanks for the advice Agnes.

I decided not to trade freedom for microtransactions years before I even switched to linux, personally. If a game can’t run without literal spyware, I probably haven’t played it.

Oh yeah thermite is fun! Definitely didn’t make any as a kid off of a “lifehacker . com” (dead site, don’t visit) video that claimed it could melt through an engine block or anything like that…
We didn’t have any spare engine blocks but it’ll fuck up a dumpster pretty good…I uhhh…suspect.

W10 wouldn’t get past the pin screen (type pin, then black screen forever, nothing else), so I used a live boot disk of fedora to rescue my files (turns out you can just bypass windows pins and mount the drive), then installed fedora on my old toshiba satellite and never looked back. Few years in I upgraded with linux in mind and now am cruising with a Framework 16. No regrets.
Join us! Cast off your shackles! Microsoft has no power over you beyond what you willingly give them!

- Comment on Low-Cost Drone Add-Ons From China Let Anyone With a Credit Card Turn Toys Into Weapons of War 1 week ago:
I want to make a drone and a dropper for meshtastic and totally-not-weed purposes, I wouldn’t be making bombs, but I gotta say, it really isn’t that hard to make bombs if you did want to.
Sure we can’t get the RPG heads to duct tape on em, but a primer positioned over a pin, some gunpowder and lead shot, a weight in the front of the shell to ensure it falls right, and a 3d printed shell will be pretty effective against soft targets. “Conveniently” for bombers here there isn’t much armor to contend with in the streets, nobody has tanks/BMPs or even pelvic plates on their carrier (hell not even many plate carriers day to day, even though people do have them.)
Hell, the Boston marathon bombing was done with a pressure cooker from Kohls and nails from Home Depot, sure those can’t be drone delivered, but explosives aren’t actually unobtanium, you just need to do a little more work.
And again for the FBI guy in the back, I’m not making bombs, I’m using it for radio, and I don’t even have one yet because I wanna try and find one I can program to follow me to extend my radio range (which I’m like 80% sure is possible.)
- Comment on Oh NOOOO 2 weeks ago:
No it isn’t and I’m old too. It’s either butt rock, dad rock, pop, rap that’s actually just pop now, or terrible country. Barely of each is even passable but there’s a few gems in each except for the country which would need to go older or play Charley Crockett and they won’t.

I can meet you halfway and pronounce Mexico correctly, but that is beyond my abilities and I’m not ashamed to admit it lol.
- Comment on The right person for me deserves better. 5 weeks ago:
I tried the library, but unfortunately my local is populated with people whom it would either be illegal and/or undesirable to date, it’s mostly kids, olds (like, grandma/grandpa old. I’m an old but not that old, I’m looking for something in a decade-size 30s), or unfortunately houseless people (and while that in and of itself isn’t necessarily a dealbreaker, it often comes with things that are in my experience, can’t be dating addicts anymore for my own health, it is what it is.)
Bookstores maybe, and I’ve seen people in the store that I totally would love to get to know (who knows how it’d go y’know but I’m down for some coffee or something to determine compatibility beyond attraction yadda yadda), however it is my understanding that it is never appropriate to approach a woman in public and talk to her while she’s just trying to go about her business shopping, or god forbid working, anywhere.

Point of order, an effigy by definition would be a dummy/representation of the thing that you then symbolically destroy.
As in, you make an effigy of Mussolini out of cloth and stuffing and burn it in a protest before lining him against a wall, killing him, and defiling his corpse. The corpse itself is not an effigy unless you then use that and make it look like Hitler, and then burn the Mussolini-Hitler corpse as an effigy of Hitler, which tbh would have some layers to it and seems like an innovation in effigy technology…
