For some people it kind of seems like just shouting at an empty room. I recently found a (now ex)friend’s Bluesky, which opened a whole can of worms.

But his whole thing was basically complaining about whatever he could with no one listening. Then complaining that no one was interacting.

It was like the equivalent of him having a stage in an empty room and just yelling about random shit. Then yelling that there’s no one else in the room. I don’t get it

My household has a shared calendar we use to plan events. I’ve thought about a project before just to put a big view version of that up somewhere for people to reference, but I’ve been hesitant because it’s a large household and having to play tech support every time it goes wrong isn’t something i can do.

If i could get a reliable screen on the fridge that could display that, along with maybe a Reminders List and your sticky note idea, that would be perfect. With ads though that’s a big nope from me.

Even excluding my stance on not wanting ads, that’s how you find out the 5 year old accidentally bought something, or that something was leaked in a big data leak. That’s just something i don’t want in my home

Same. I’m sitting in my college’s library right now trying to work and the outage threw a wrench in all of my plans. I’m thankful I downloaded the files to my hard drive though so I can do most of the work on Pen and Paper

Knowing her? I wouldn’t be surprised. I actually ended up moving it straight after though lol

40-70 GBs is the sweet spot for me. My Wi-Fi can download it within a day usually and I can fit a bunch of them onto my 1 TB SSD

I’d say I was? I got along with most everyone and it wasn’t uncommon for me to walk around during lunch break and most people to recognize me

That’s how I was when my childhood dog passed. So many things I’d do that reminded me of her. At one point, as absurd as it was, I couldn’t play something as basic as Minecraft without having to shut it down because it reminded me of her. Just recently we lost a kitten that wasn’t going to make it, and the space heater we had keeping him warm made me cry whenever I saw it.

Your cat is very lucky to have been loved like that. I’m sure he knew that

It would seem Woodie Flowers is who i’m thinking of. I’m glad the other two are alive though. It’s a shame about the owner, but i also i feel like that death was easily avoidable

More Link to love I say

I could have sworn I remember hearing the founder died of Covid back when I was in FIRST myself, it’s possible I’m confusing him for someone else though.

Luckily the robotics team covers all the parts for their robot so he’s getting a bit of the experience

I think I’d lose my face if I tried. I’m lucky I bought two

He has a ton of ideas. Right now he’s gotten really into Robotics and specifically joined his local FIRST team. This gave him the idea to build a robot of his own. I’ve tried to support him but damn can those things get expensive fast

I try to encourage him since all my tinkering was self taught. I know I’d appreciate having a guide or even just a friend to talk to about those ideas. And he definitely comes up with some ideas that help my own tinkering.

Right now he’s really into engineering and has this box that comes monthly that I paid for him that teaches him Engineering principles. I think it’s done by Mark Rober? Not really tinkering but He also likes making models for 3D printing and he’s been trying to get into Programming, unfortunately I think that curiosity keeps distracting him though.

lmao. I have a brother who’s a lot like me and loves to tinker (not too young that this is irresponsible though), so when i need to throw something on to keep him occupied while i work, i know Technology Connections is a safe bet.

Man, I fucking love watching this guy. He’ll talk about the most niche things and I love learning about it. He inspired a presentation I gave on how rice cookers work

It’s how i have all the free time i do lol

fair enough. I completely forgot he’s attached himself to that until you brought it up

Is this going to turn into our version of that dogelore or whatever it is that Reddit had?

I got curious and searched a little bit to find you an answer. All I can find online is people saying it’s a meme tracing of some porn
