Need something uncomfortably sticky in a hurry? Try the stickinator.

The plan is to replace the disinfectant with Kool Aid and the UV light with an Easy Bake Oven bulb. With people being less cautious of COVID 19 these devices are probably getting cheaper and what modern consumer doesn't love brand crossovers?

I originally posted this to !shitty_million_dollar_ideas@lemmy.dbzer0.com but I feel like it would be a better fit for a writing prompt. I feel like there's plenty of chances for humorous situations like Jesus wearing a noticeably fake beard and production staff getting people to sign NDAs.

Some people at work were kicking up toilet seat lids and angering the people doing work on the other side of the wall. It made me think about the Lunk Alarm but then I realised it would probably go off if someone took a loud shit.

I've attached a link to what the Lunk Alarm sounds like for those that don't know. It's pretty close to an air raid siren that's triggered by noise.

I found the image on Reddit while looking for demon core memes but because of Reddit's VPN block I can't give proper credit.

Wikipedia pages for those that don't know:


Bonus Plainly Difficult video for those who want to learn more about the Demon Core incident. It's about 10 minutes long.

Both seem in vogue with boomers. So why not get the best of both and be the talk of the BBQ?

Maybe the text could be altered to include reference to wearing the shirt versus copying and pasting text.

You need to have sound on. She's getting cussed at for what she's doing

The I ♥ NY shirt is so incredibly popular you don't even need to travel to New York to get it and it's been ripped off around the world.

But what about people that don't ♥ New York?

It's an untapped market. The attached image is an early draft. What does it mean to tolerate New York? I don't know.

Another version could say I Am Indifferent Towards New York.

Setting off a detector might give you a time bonus while they investigate.

I was watching the Simpsons episode where Homer is a firefighter and that gave me the idea.

What are gamers known for? Racism and urinating in bottles.

We take advantage of the untapped market of the latter and add RGB to milk jugs and charge 40x the price.

Why fight for the last slice of pizza when you can fight for the first?

Imagine one slice of pizza with 50% of the chicken. Could be a fun way to spice up office birthday parties.

The man in the photo reminds me a bit of Brutal Moose.

Maybe it's just the facial hair. I feel like there's a video of him in a similar stance/outfit

I know there's ways to reset the entire layout but I keep accidentally doing it. The attached images shows what I am talking about on the left.

I own Stardew Valley but I am avoiding using the Google Play store when possible. While I could just sign into Aurora Store with my Google account I think I'd need to install Google Play Services so I am wondering if I could crack the game myself. I think in the past people used Lucky Patcher but I have tried it with other games that I own with no luck.

I've looked through the megathread and it seems like there are versions of Stardew Valley uploaded to Mobilism but a majority of them are modded for things like infinite stamina and money. The version without mods on Mobilism also appears to be re-uploaded from Apk Vision which isn't in the megathread.

Wonder if they forgot their Steam login

Honestly USB C adapters. If you EDC a portable power bank it's worth looking into a USB C to micro and thunderbolt adapter. It's a lot easier than carrying around multiple cords and an easy way to help out friends and coworkers.

I think I got mine for a few dollars on Ali Express

Similar to the classic joke:

Why did the sperm cross the road?

Because I put on the wrong socks this morning.

  1. Lemmy is now a real alternative. When reddit imploded Lemmy wasn't fully set up to take advantage of the exodus, so a lot of users came over to the fediverse and gave up right away. There were no phone apps, the user interface was rudimentary, and communities weren't yet alive. Next time reddit screws up in a high profile way, and they will screw up, the fediverse will be ready.

I definitely think having mobile apps is an essential step. I was looking at alternative platforms such as Raddle.me but using a mobile browser was an extra hurdle (similar to using the official Reddit app) that kept me from regularly checking in.

  1. Lemmy has way more potential than reddit. Reddit's leadership has always been incompetent and slow at fixing problems. The fediverse has been very responsive to user feedback in comparison.

I could see this causing issues later. We've already seen issues arise with some instances using the .ml domain or not being updated immediately.

Defederation is another beast all together. Most of an instance might be fine but a few problematic communities could create problems leading to arguments and, as much as I hate the term, drama.

By pirating an NFT you mean saving the image? Because the owner of an NFT doesn't always own the copyright or license.

I'd recommend Kiwi. You can use it combined with Wikipedia's ZIM files to have access to just about all of Wikipedia offline.

I would recommend installing all of Libre Office's programs for work purposes. It's free and open source so you won't have to deal with licenses and unwanted updates.

Calibre would be a good tool to have for reading ebooks and converting files.

There's also apps like RedditOffline so if you have an intermittent connection you can browse threads offline. I imagine similar services exist for other platforms.

It uses a ranking algorithm. You can read more about it here but I don't think it's done at an individual level like Reddit.

SpotiFlyer. It matches songs in a Spotify playlist to songs on YouTube and downloads them. Great if you like Spotify's curated and niche playlists but don't like their app or restrictions on playback.

Antenna Pod is great for podcasts but that's not really piracy.
