  1. @adiwan Can you get guitar pedals in there so you can mod your voice like Frampton?

  2. @adiwan I am seriously contemplating just accepting that the Unihertz line is a couple OS versions old, it's still newer than I've got ATM

  3. Oh man I had such a good image of Saturn in my telescope tonight that I was at first convinced that I was forcing myself to see what I wanted, took like ten minutes and reliably locating it a few times before I believed my eyes

  4. @adiwan A lot of character sheets seem unpleasant IMO, I ended up reaching a point where I just use blank paper and an almost NPC-like simple stat block.

  5. I loved children's mystery books when I was a child. Probably more than I read adult mysteries as an adult, actually.

  7. Poor ol' BlackBerry battery is on its last legs, sometimes shuts down in the 70% range if it's warm or I try running any media. Works well plugged in, though! So now the question is, burner phone or USB battery pack?!? :D

  15. Anyone claiming a smartphone or tablet can replace a regular computer is a delusional fool who has not tasted the power and freedom that a computer offers. I tried catching up on my tablet and it made me realize once again how limiting and cumbersome touchscreens are and how android is not making it easy navigating anything and its ecology is not geared to power users. Autocorrect and predictive text blocks are mere crutches and poor imitations of the feats one can do when mastering touch typing on a physical keyboard. I coould learn doing that on a screen keyboard but doing so blindly is verging on the impossible.

  18. @adiwan My high school girlfriend's dad did exactly that for their family's computer chairs, it can actually work out *incredibly* well, totally a good project idea. I've even been thinking about it as my desk chair starts wearing out....

  19. @adiwan Huh. Well, it helped me calculate giant crops in Stardew Valley better than it helped me with the odds in a 52-card deck, at least. So there's still more room to grow.

  23. @adiwan And kilometers are 1.6 to the mile, but celcius is 9/5+32 and centimeters are 2.54 per inch, why can't there just be one conversion rate?! lol

  27. So I ask Perplexity AI if I could use my guitar to chase away gophers, and it said probably not. Then I asked if it would work any better with my bass guitar and it gets hung up. I'm sure it was a connection error but I like to think it's sitting there going, "What's it matter if the guitar is shaped like a fish?!"

  28. @zeldatra Only when I'm supposed to meet a man with white shoes and two cigarettes. His name is Thomas, and he will be expecting the codephrase. If Thomas is not present within 2 minutes of the arranged meeting time, I am to board the return train and . . . Uhh, wait....
