  • What do you call your significant other in your phone?

    Jump

  • When we were not-quite engaged and doing long-distance, my wife ganked my dumbphone and quickly edited my contact from {her name} to {her name}-mywife, no spaces, no capital letters. So now, twenty+ years later, that's what it still says, and that's how I address greeting card envelopes to her.

  • And both are fucking delicious (and honestly pretty similar, mostly with the tomato being less "in your face" with the murgh makhani).

  • Brazil shocked to find that 13,000 students about to graduate from medical school lack basic knowledge to practice medicine

    Jump

  • This is almost exactly what happened in the US a hundred-plus years ago. The fallout vastly improved medical education overall, but also ossified the field into a modern fortress of protectionism that hurts the public by ignoring the supply part of supply and demand, but also hurts the clever (and typically already privileged in most ways) young people who manage to get med school, by saddling them with huge amounts of debt and grinding them into powder for the first decade of their career. I also subscribe to the theory that the hypercompetitive selection process results in too many doctors who are not well-rounded or particularly good at processing information outside their fields, but are told over and over again that they're too smart to have any blind spots. If you have the right credential and especially if you've made enough money with it, society does the Dunning-Krugering for you.

  • I had to sit on the floor to invite cuddles, but he finally came in and is now resting on his stinky blanket. To be completely honest, he was only out like that for a few minutes, but bless his heart he was trying so hard. The fosters called him "Sergeant" because he was bossy and protective of his siblings.

  • These charts show how Trump is isolating the US on the world stage

    Jump

  • At this point dealing with the predictable and polite asshole is easier than the unpredictable and rude one. Trump is making a diplomacy mess that will take decades to clean up, if ever.

  • If nothing else, and back in the Bush days it's pretty much all we had, they accept the possibility that they can lose elections. The bar is literally laying on the ground, yet MAGA still can't clear it.

  • How Radioactive Oil and Gas Waste Could Lie Beneath a North Texas Elementary School

    Jump

  • drive through Lubbock

    Well, yes. Lubbock is as Lubbock was. It is known.

    Texas is a mess.

    This is also true.

  • Super Bowl Ad for Ring Cameras Touted AI Surveillance Network

    Jump

  • This is pretty much what I said to my wife while scritching my dogs. First it'll just be expanded to missing kids and olds, because of course everyone wants to reunite families, but eventually it'll be something that "law enforcement" can request for whatever the hell they want, because after all they're the good guys keeping us safe!

  • Favorite movie continuation of a TV series?

    Jump

  • Certainly NOT Dead Like Me. Still salty about that one.

    Serenity and Star Trek as others have said are proabbly my actual favorites. The original Naked Gun movies were based on the short-lived Police Squad show and are as close to maintaining continuity as anything ZAZ could be. Then, the original Transformers animated movie gets more credit than it deserves due to nostalgia and not being a Michael Bay mess, but it had no business being even as good as it was.

  • Rechargeable electric arc lighters kinda suck for the average person, and will typically end up as e-waste.

    Jump

  • But, and hear me out here, it's also wicked cool.

    Ours is more stick-shaped though, and really only good for candle wicks. If we smoked, you might be able to get a cigarette into the arc. It'd probably also work well if your grill's or gas stove's spark igniter was broken.

  • Happy 40th

    Jump

  • All with full 40s sets?

    Oh, God no. Sorry! Mostly they're on more normie boards, but the Mitospeed being R3 and full of nonsense legends would go well on a 40 or 40-adjacent.

    I've reluctantly come to realize that I just don't like the feel of Cherry all that much. I prefer DCS if I'm going to go cylindrical. The sharp edges on Cherry are just all wrong for my poor typing technique.

  • Happy 40th

    Jump

  • I got Tatooine, Oblivion (Hagoromo), Laser, and Mitospeed for some pretty steep discounts, as well as the DSS Honeywell from PrimeKB. My options for cheap but unused SP are quickly drying up though, lol.

    Funny enough, the board I come back to most often is the first one I did on the no-stabs PCB (minimum order quanity is a burden to us all!), which has semi-sculpted Akko SA on it. When avoiding stabs, good 40s kitting is essential even if I also need a numpad.

  • Happy 40th

    Jump

  • SA Teletype is such a pretty set, and I really like SA R3, and the designer seems like a good guy. It was the one time I was seriously tempted to pay full price for "name brand" keycaps. I don't even use 40s, but I had a layout rigged to adapt an existing no-stabs FRL 1800 PCB I designed a while back.

  • She's a security risk

  • Why do you think Starfleet had to set that up in the first place? You think they WANT a huge network of oversized saltwater-flooded Jeffries tubes running alongside the constantly infiltrated and poorly electrically insulated normal ones?

  • Would the tart blueberries taste as good if you didn't have to randomly power through 3 to 5 bland ones between each good one?

    Jump

  • Interesting. These say they're from Mexico. It would be pretty underwhelming if there's a blander variety.

  • But the tart ones are the good ones.

  • Raspberry for me, though I'm not sure if it's fully artificial or "just" ultra-processed. It's also partly because I like that flavor but I'm mildly allergic and about 25% of the time I eat it, my lip swells a bit, so I try to minimize how often I have it.
