Nomination by Mattias Adolfsson
  • Kermit the frog, space invaders, ereader, a heart, liver, democracy, an atari style joystick, and a traffic light. There is so much packed in here.

  • Where there's smork...
  • Feye'a, fagidaboudit!

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • To expand on this Have you considered Matrix? It's like IRC but encrypted AND includes a bridge to IRC so you can have the best of both worlds. https://matrix.org/ The most popular client here https://element.io/ though there are many others.

  • NTFS turns 30 years old today! I hear it's still in use by some crufty old legacy operating systems 😁
  • I think they mean the full path length. As in you can't nest folders too deep or the total path length hits a limit. Not individual folder name limits.

  • LG's New Instant Coffee Machine Mixes Two Pods, Generates Twice the Trash, and its Nasa-inspired design looks like the Apollo lunar lander is relieving itself in your coffee cup.
  • I hate typing this because it gives Nestle the slightest shred of credit. Their pods are aluminum and recyclable. Keurig k-cups started off as non-recyclable plastic but have now switched to some kind of, apparently, recyclable plastic...supposedly. Doesn't make the use of pods much better but it's not nothing.

  • First cellphone
  • Not sure this is exactly what you meant but...available right now. https://store.planetcom.co.uk/products/astro-slide

  • Ubisoft thinks it's okay to delete your games library now apparently
  • Valve, is a platform. They have little reason to remove games themselves. But they do work with, and comply with, video game corpos doing this horse crap (not to be confused with horse armor which is also still crap). So they're at least complicit. See OP.

    The core issue is that "buying" on any of the platforms (except GOG) is not buying but leasing for a one time payment. While Gaben is pretty altruistic it's only a matter of time until someone less so is in charge and decides X isn't wanted anymore and then poof because the EULA (also subject to change at any moment) allows it.

  • yes
  • Me running around Walmart

  • Elon Musk says Twitter logo to change, birds to be gradually abandoned
  • Bets on this happening because he's bought into "birds aren't real"?

  • Pilots get distracted on a plane and leave it flying unattended for over an hour, overshooting the destination airport.
  • Suspiciously during the same hour there was no drink service either. The mile high club is alive and well.

  • He'll be back with the milk someday but till then:
  • This seems to apply to most of the upper midwest. Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Indiana, Ohio etc.

    From Iowa, can confirm.

  • New NATO bioweapon just dropped
  • Where do I get this COD DLC?

  • Reuters: It's official— VanMoof, high-end bicycle manufacturer, has declared bankruptcy
  • Standardized doesn't mean open source. But you know maybe you're right let's throw out the SAE and CENELEC and the standards for all the other stuff we use and see how that goes.

  • Bone Apple Tea
  • I use messaging apps exclusively with my Android using friends and family. Can't get my Apple using friends and family to use them. iMessage or the highway. Can't take away the one wee thing that feeds their ego. Fuck everybody else right!? Maddening.

  • Besides speed, what would actually suck about surfing the internet back in the day compared to now?
  • Siblings or parents picking up the phone causing a disconnect.

  • When you don't possess the ability to get a room
  • Whaaaat kind of parks were you going to!?

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • Cool quote. The problem is the people who claim to have faith use faith as an excuse to cling to a belief even after facts have proven otherwise. "But I still have faith X is true." despite the facts proving otherwise. There in lies the problem.
