You wouldn't download a car!

Crohn's does that already, so who knows!

I still have the lanyard to my 128 MB PNY Attaché.

Why not just shut the door so the cat doesn't get in there? The toilet paper being hung correctly is more important than the cat for me.

A blood sacrifice to the Musk.

Plex Amp? Nah. Hauling 8 pounds of CD's to work everyday? Yeah.

I just did the zap element thing on that warning. So far so good, except you can't scroll down.

At my previous job, once a year they had a catalog of company merch. Nobody ever got it, because it was kind of over priced. Well, I had a good year and wanted a jacket and a zip up fleece. It was like, $160. My order comes, and I love it. I give the person in charge of said orders a check. Next day, she gives it back, saying they were having an issue cashing it internationally, or something. Because the company is headquartered in Canada. So, a week goes by and I ask if it was sorted out, or should I pay a different way. She said she'd let me know. Then, she quit. I was there another year, and nobody ever hunted me down for my $160. Then I quit. Free jacket and fleece.

I do have a small collection of parts that were manufactured or ordered incorrectly. They're useless, and too small to be of any scrap value. I like them because they are so drastically different from the prints, it's funny. Like, what were they thinking when they made these? I'll probably bring them back ans toss them in the scrap bin before I leave this job.

Hey, anybody know the best browser for Windows Mobile 6.5?

The guy worked for the robot manufacturer, according to the article! You'd think would have been much more aware of the robot's reach, and the safety procedures. Plus, I'm pretty sure you can step through the robot programming slowly. I've seen our programmers do it. Please don't tell me he was in the cell standing next to the crate or whatever, with that thing running full production speed.

My new COO invited a few of us out individually to get a grasp on why people are leaving and how we can retain people. He really did suggest a ping-pong table. I think all of us set him straight that we couldn't care less about that. I broke my personal record last month for hours worked in a week. It was over 75. If I leave, it will be because of that. Not because we don't go to baseball games as a team, or don't have a Foosball table.

It wasn't able to create puncture wounds, only pooper cuts.

I'm here after ten years with Baconreader. Really sad it's gone, but I'm super hopeful about my future here! If anyone knows of any communities that enjoy watches or fountain pens, let me know!

I work in automotive interiors tooling. We had a customer bring by a sample of this headliner material. But they brought an entire roll of it, four feet wide, no idea how long. Probably 75 feet. I cut a couple feet off of it, now my whole desk is a mousepad.

That reminds me of the art for Glitch Mob, We Can Make the World Stop.

Wait.. the Lemmy logo is a Lemming?? I've spent the last 6 days thinking it was a gerbil. And this whole thing was referencing the Lemmiwinks episode of South Park.

Oh shit, I like NIN. I didn't even realize I was an incel.. What do I tell my wife? "Horny misanthrope" is pretty fair though, I guess.

Nothing, I guess I just never needed any spiritual support. I grew up an atheist, my parents never took me to any church or prayed or told any religious stories of any kind. Then suddenly, in high school, I decided to tell them I was non religious they were surprised. They said we are Methodists. Well, that's news to me. Maybe you are, but I was never baptized or anything.

Funny thing, I also never got "the talk." I managed to figure things out for myself there, too.

Even more fun, he was 33 when this episode aired, he'd be 63 now. And if I'm right, Tommy would now be the age Didi was when she had him.

Fallout 4. What I seem to enjoy the most out of it is resource gathering to try and build impervious settlements. But Fallout 4 is not Subsistence, or The Forest, or Subnautica. I'm not playing it properly. I don't care about the story or the characters because they are bad.

Stick with Fallout NV or 3 for good (first person) Fallout.

This place is awesome. I like that I can recognize usernames in replies. It definitely feels closer than reddit.

Swapped the 300 MHz Pentium III for my 233 MHz Pentium II. The computer was very unhappy with this situation. Mine loved it, and I ran it all the way to 2006.

  • I bought a TI-86 graphing calculator for $10 new in 2004. That was two years before it was discontinued, so that was an awesome price. I absolutely love that calculator. It's so easy to program for, it has custom shortcut keys, fantastic battery life, and has a super convenient multi-unit converter. The Casio FX-9750 GIII has a similar conversion feature, but it requires like, two extra button presses per conversion. I still use this calculator all the time.

  • Programmable gaming mouse. I have so many key combos and macros on my mouse, I could do most of my job one handed now if I had to. It's been so helpful for things like holding the baby when I'm working and my wife is unavailable.

  • Steelcase Leap V2. I can put in a 70 hour work week with no back pain now.

  • A fountain pen. Doesn't even have to be an expensive one. Some of my best memories can be tied to cheap pens. Signing for my house with my Kaweco Sport. Or signing my marriage license with my Jinhao x250. I feel like I just appreciate what I'm writing more with a fountain pen.

  • My PS2. Well, it was a gift. But still, I've had it since launch and it's only gotten better with time. Free MCBoot, hard drive, Noctua fan mod, Brooks PS3 controller adapter.. It's basically the only console I play anymore.

Probably twice. Both relating to colonoscopy prepping.

How is babby formed?

I still haven't beaten FO4. I lost interest. But I started 3 over again! And it's still just as good as ever. And it's been so long since I've played it, I've forgotten a lot of it. It's pretty awesome.

Not my beloved bleach!! It's my favorite cleaner.

Did you know that it feels slippery due to saponification? It's using your own body oils!

It smells good, it tastes good, AND it makes its own soap. It really is a miracle product.

What if they made it?

I have a schnauzer + poodle = schnoodle named Ziti.

It was! I have hundreds of dollars in company apparel that my current company just gave us. Polos, fleeces, a Carhartt coat, a Weatherproof jacket, a 50 qt Coleman cooler. We'd get something every Christmas. So, paying for your own company merch seemed weird to me, but I still wanted some. I'm glad it worked out.

What did Red Lobster do?

I just had kidney stone removal surgery yesterday. The kind with a scope. That's my life right now, sleeping or awake.

I'm glad this has been preserved.

Yeah, thanks. Looking forward to not feeling like I'm peeing out razorblades.

Mine is 5mm. They told me I had a good chance of passing it. So for weeks, they had me on a double dose of Flomax with some big ibuprofen. Nothing. Follow up CT scan said it hardly moved. They're going in. They went in. He got far enough in to see it, but couldn't get to it. I guess in younger men, things are pretty narrow in that vicinity. So, they put a stent in to dilate it larger and I have to go back. But now, it really, really hurts to pee and I have crazy bladder urgency. So I'm in the bathroom frequently for like, a tablespoon or so of fluid. Them just going up there with a scope really did a number on me. It sucks so hard. I really, really hope you just pass yours normally. Good luck to you!

I'd like to see a miniseries based off TRON 2.0.

Yeah, three. One in the kitchen, one at the bottom of my basement stairs, and one in my laundry room.

Yeah, the only mouse I have that does this I'd my Logitech T-BB-18 when I take the ball out.

The Deacon of the Deez will never go for it. Consumption and expansion is pivotal to his beliefs.

If my 3rd party app is broken to the point theh can't bring it back, I would like to say I'd drop YouTube like a sack of moldy tangerines. But I really don't know what I'd do without it. I use it about 8hrs a day.
