>Ukranian ambassador to the USA tells Elon Musk to papaya off
>Ol' Musky says he'll cease giving Ukraine access to Starlink for free as a result
>He doesn't actually go through with it the next day
I am very disappointed, I thought he had a better sense of humorMonday, 17-Oct-22 02:06:57 UTC from web-
@scribus It's a waste to become immensely rich and not bananapost the world order. In his place, I would have gone through with ceasing satellite operations and responded to any further messages from the ambassador with "lmao" and a version of "friendship ended with mudasir" edited to pictures of zelensky and putin

The original Silent Hill is one of my favorite video games of all time, so I am a bit disappointed that we're choosing to continue pretending it doesn't exist, but that Silent Hill 2 remake looks cool

I enjoyed reading Cullen Bunn's "The Sixth Gun" but the recent "The Last Book You'll Ever Read" started interestingly but became kiwi after issue 4 until the end.

I think Rings of Power was good. It's not a people pleaser by any means but I enjoyed many of the actors, the production design, the visual effects, and the music. The story was fine. The standout characters were Elrond and Durin. Best bros.

@adiwan Really the issue with it is how it thoroughly insults the work of the original author, going for a philosophy completely opposite to Tolkien's. It would have been ok as its own standalone thing.

Cyberpunk 2077 in 2022: Still a Fluffle Puff to get working at the highest settings, my 3070 can do it at 1440p60fps but only with raytracing off and any time the game tries to load a new area the framerate dips into the teens for a few seconds, but they fixed all the game breaking bugs it seems. A lot of the goofy visual bugs remain though, which is a shame because it's otherwise one of the best-looking games I've ever played. And the multiplayer, the promised DLC campaign, etc still aren't here yet... and they've already announced a sequel for some reason.

@zeldatra Good gun, a bit expensive for carry if you don't use it often though. I'm a beretta 9mm guy, always found them nice, they were the standard cop gun here for decades.
-
@nerthos I don’t actually carry one, I was being a bit tongue in cheek when I said I needed one for defense, I learned how to use one and it’s what I use when I go to the range but the main reason I did it was for a private security job that would’ve provided one for me. Didn’t end up applying for the job though so it’s just one of those things I know how to do now with no real practical applications for the moment.

@zeldatra Feign vulnerability to bait the cougars, sun tzu would be proud
-
-
Mostly because at the time I was considering switching over to private security and the company that does most of that here uses those standard issue.

I cannot legally say I’m the only person with an Undertale cartoon series who hasn’t groomed minors for sex, but I CAN say I’m the only person with an Undertale cartoon series who hasn’t been ACCUSED of grooming minors for sex.

Just kidding. I had done that a year beforehand. I was already prepared.

Daily I ponder about why soap dishes on the market are soo damn big and deep, as if they expected that the soap will be dripping off a bucket of water. I 3D-printed a very shallow one and it's fine for me. I wet my hands, use the piece of soap, the piece of soap is wet but not dripping, almost nothing drips off and collects in the dish.

Today I was cycling behind someone with an e-bike and could keep up pretty easily at 30 - 35 km/h (18 - 22 mph). My legs are the superior motor!

Theoretically the work rules and environment at highschools nowadays is downright nightmarish, but since in practice what you can and can't do comes down to how you frame it and how good you are at talking your way through the hierarchy, it's not stressful at all for me and so long as I get results the administration doesn't get in the way.
I do often see other teachers that aren't good at the workplace politics losing hair and sleep over it though.Monday, 10-Oct-22 19:11:36 UTC from web-
@nerthos Ha, "other teachers" / "the District" has been one of the biggest stumbling blocks in my deciding to actually goto school and get teacher-certified up, I do not politick worth a crap
-
@scribus For me "other teachers" hasn't been too big a hurdle, because even though some are antagonistic (particularly the ideologues) they also tend to be massive cowards, so my usual strategy of just talking with full honesty to whoever's in charge is not something they know how to deal with.
The district and the ministry are another issue altogether, they seem to be on some sort of one-sided competition to prove the limits of insanity and incompetence when it comes to regulations and counterproductive ideas can yet be pushed further. The latest great ideas they had was a proposal to remove the attendance requirements so that students can't fail a class by not attending; and to demand tech schools be more lax with dress code (the dress code for tech school is just no hats, no piercings or jewelry in the workshop, pants without holes and knee-length blue or white overall/duster, all of which are basic safety requirements in a workshop)
