I remember watching that P4A a few years ago. The bean thing was hilarious. And then Lemmy did a version of it… talk about meme synchronicity. Pretty great.

Nebula is pretty great.

There’s a place in Vancouver (BC) sells these. Fully amazing stuff.

Emilee’s Sweet Shop on Hastings.

Sure. How much weight does that have when Sacramento decides to run a water pipeline from Capilano to eastern Washington or whatever?

God we have trouble enough with Toronto thinking it’s the centre of the world and ignoring BC. We’d have zero influence in Cascadia.

“what in your country is totally normal”

Japan: “We have a Canada theme park”

I’ve heard that! Anne of Green Gables is big there too for a weird reason. There’s an anime airing right now, even.

So what if it was?

I have syphilis on my shaft. The shaft of my torchiere lamp.

Also covid-19 hanging out on our projector screen. ^_

I quite like both Impossible and Beyond burgers. Honestly, better than a lot of the shitty fast food Styrofoam “meat” they try to pass off.

It’s a better bet than the “beef” at a cheap restaurant. The worst they can do is cook it badly.

Chookity!

I can’t dive into tvtropes right now, but I’ve got dollar on someone having coined a term already.

No visible mold. I’d pour off the hooch, put it through a couple feeding cycles, and see how it smells.

Consider, though, the value you received in non-monetary terms. How much would you have had to pay?

How about, if we must have military drones, they should be open source.

I only just heard this the first time recently and it’s got some stickiness to it! Definitely a song people will recognize a couple decades from now. Centuries, maybe not.

The Long Dark. Nothing will change. Death is only a matter of time.

A raid6 array across a collection of separate disks might do it.

Not difficult, or even expensive, to find a working 20 year old machine with a 3.5" FDD. Also I work at a library and we keep a couple of well bagged USB floppy drives around for profs who occasionally need data retrieval. Hasn’t happened in a couple years though. We also have an old Dell for 5.25".
