The problem is that store bought croutons have normalized being dry, hard bullets. It's not like that when they're made fresh. They're beautiful little pieces of buttered texture in your salad.

It's okay to plagiarize books if they're in a library.

Thanks for the lecture, professor.

Let's not forget you can edit your html and fake things like this.

This one is hard to believe.

Steam has to be worth a lot more than 12 billion.

Years ago at work we had a office type coffee machine with the filter carrier you pull out and dump.

The water flow to the filter got slower and slower until it was taking forever to make a pot. I finally broke down and took it apart to clean the calcium deposits out of it.

Turned out there was a dead cockroach blocking the hole from the reservoir to the filter.

I'll take this opportunity to plug a tiny podcast that I stumbled onto called "Some Dare Call it Conspiracy". It's hosted by two English guys that were hard-core conspiracy theorists for 15 years.

They now discuss, debunk and interview people around the conspiracy life. It's really fascinating to learn about Pizzagate, Chemtrails, Hunter Biden's Laptop and Jeffery Epstein from very knowledgeable people but in an environment of debunking.

Their latest episode is an interview with Rob Jacobson, a former staffer for Alex Jones that worked for him for 12 years. Jacobson ended up testifying against Jones in the Sandy Hook trial. The episode is on their Patreon at the moment but will roll out to the general public in a few days. Fascinating stuff and Jones is every bit as shady as one expects.

Or as we Americans call it, "brunch".

A few years ago when Trump was still in office my wife and I went to see Roger Waters in Tulsa, Oklahoma. We had 7th row seats that cost a few hundred apiece, but we had looked at getting seats in rows 1-3 but passed because they were $1,600.00 each.

Well come the night and Roger is putting on a fabulous show, but Jesus Christ he is laying into Trump hard the whole time with anti-trump videos running and pig drones flying around the room. It was awesome, you can find most of the show on YouTube if you're interested.

Well six or eight cowboys in the first row walked out of the show, flipping off Roger Waters as they did so, yelling MAGA shit and screaming about what a dumbass Waters is and how he should keep politics out of his music...

Everyone is laughing their asses off because God DAMN, have you never read the lyrics to Pink Floyd songs? I mean, what the holy fuck.

Here's an interview with Waters talking about the show

140 decibels. I'm sure some applications exist but it won't be a 3D TV soon.

Not surprising. Sync has made Lemmy a near-seamless change for me.
