cake for dinner still feels great
looking at myself in the mirror after (and also the heartburn) feels bad - Comment on Good luck! 1 week ago:
no idea if this toilet has one, but building a sink into the top of the tank is popular in parts of Asia for space- and water-saving (the graywater from washing hands fills the tank)
also if you ever encounter one, it’s common for the tap to run automatically after flushing, which I did not realize and was unpleasantly startled by as a teenage exchange student lol

- Comment on Is there no good inexpensive CAD software? 1 week ago:
I would also highly recommend Destructive Extrude for Blender, a plugin that enables the push-pull modeling that made SketchUp an entry level CAD learner’s dream (before Google sold it to Trimble who promptly ate it and shat it back out)

- Comment on Huawei unveils new trifold smartphone before Apple’s iPhone 17 reveal 1 week ago:
I had the perfect phone. Sony XZ2 Compact. released in 2018 so not even that old
5" screen. No headphone jack, but I was honestly just glad to have a screen that small. Ran LineageOS like a dream.
Then came the 3G tower shutdown. Now, the XZ2c is capable of 4G LTE calling. Lineage even had the settings option for it unlocked (as opposed to stock). So I call up my carrier and ask them to please enable 4G LTE calling for my phone so that it’ll receive calls again.
Turns out, the major carriers in the US decided not to support 4G LTE calling for the XZ2c. There’s a line of code sitting somewhere that could be flipped to “true” and my perfect phone would work again. But no, fuck me for wanting to resist CONSOOM NOO FONE EVERY SIX MONTH.
Fuck capitalism I’ll never forget what they took from me

- Comment on AOL announces September shutdown for dial-up Internet access 2 weeks ago:
In the U.S., according to Census Bureau data, an estimated 163,401 households were using dial-up alone to get online in 2023, representing just over 0.13% of all homes with internet subscriptions nationwide.
(AP News)As far as US households, looks like not many. Most likely very remote locations. I had also read that some businesses maintain a dial up connection as a backup for broadband outages

a lead suit would have done fuckall in that situation
the amount of lead you can feasibly wear on your body can protect you from, say, dental X-rays, but not from research FAFO-grade gamma radiationyou need several inches of lead and/or tungsten for that kind of shielding. you might also need several feet of concrete if neutron radiation is involved
