I’ve got a stack of old 14.4 modems I’ll sell them if they’ll grift on that for a bit.

Same. Full Moon Productions, Asylum, Troma…I love them all.

Before 41, none of them. After? Everything.

I was in the Navy and I can corroborate this. I’ll add to it that a lot of our teachers at A school were O-1 to O-3 (Ensign to Lieutenant) and they were pretty cool. We used to mess with them from time to time when they left the building by lining up and making them salute all the way to the parking lot. They were good sports.

I thought it was just Peter Criss going through some shit.

I’m in Texas, so mine currently says “Free Porn Here”. In the past it was always some snarky bullshit. My buddy’s is “FBI Mobile Team” or something similar. I think he’s had one about the DEA in the past.

So nothing funny or clever about Wi-Fi or networking, but definitely not normal names.

I only comport myself with liquor.

I’m a white dude who has never been called Hitler. But I comport myself with empathy and dignity. Well, empathy anyway.

That’s actually a really good point. The flaws make the beauty more human the same way music recorded reel to reel back in the 70s was very human because of the limitations of the day. And it is beautiful.

Not that a flawless thing can’t be beautiful. I just have a bias towards the humanness (pencil strokes, tape flutter) of the older stuff because that’s what I grew up with.

Wouldn’t it just be advertising access to your self hosted drive full of feet pics on Lemmy or Mastodon?

Hey, that’s fair! Not everything speaks to everyone. World would be terribly boring if it did.

With the exception of the words “somewhat overrated”, I agree with this 100%. I have probably ~1000 hours in bg3 and just shy of 100 in expedition 33.

I wish I could play Expedition 33 for the first time again. It’s amazing. And it is very much a work of art.

With BG3 I can play it for the first time again by making different choices, adding mods, and choosing different classes. It’s a very fun video game with a lot of choices.

I’d highly recommend both. If someone is searching to fill between 40 and 100 hours (I like side quests, ok?) then Expedition 33 is absolutely amazing. If someone were looking to spend a couple of years before they have the money for another game then I can absolutely recommend BG3.

I didn’t even know these sorts of mini racks existed. now I’m going to have to get one for all my half sized preamps if they’ll fit. That would solve like half the problems with my studio room and may help bring back some of my spark for making music.

I have no recs. Just want to say I’m so excited to see this. I can probably build an audio patch panel.

Next quarter? Who gives a shit! This quarter is all there is!

One eight hundred, five five one, eight nine hundred. Diesel Driving Academy!

Oh bullshit. It’s one of the most used and most effective voter suppression tactics. Do you know how many people don’t vote because “Texas is red, so it doesn’t matter”?

It affects statewide races. Anyone telling you it doesn’t is either ignorant or a complete piece of shit trying to convince you of something.

Jokes on her. I have forgotten all the good information I had back when I held a clearance and I’m incredibly boring.

Nope. It’s you and me, buddy. They learned from a fancy talker and a drunk. That’s why they just make shit up.

My oldest son, Stetson, was picking on his youngest brother, Resistol, until the two middle children, Akubra and Master Hatters of Texas stepped in.
