random thought of the before bed time: someone should give the Voyager Golden disk to a bunch of college students. Then without reference to it or any reference an alien society would have (i.e. can't look up how a record works) see if any of them manage to decode the thing

@Soreth @Phorm @anthracite fwiw I went and it's all bees. Disappointed

@Veladynee non deflatable toys. much better!

Some are more altered than others but can still be used the same way with creativity

Like Power Word: Coke

D&D curse: the words in your spell book are slightly altered. for example:

Teleport is now Telepart

@Phorm When considering if you or a comment is full of shit consider which has an internet saying about them

"Don't read the comments"

Seriously though there are certainly some artists that get stuff they don't like because they haven't set a good list in their tos and think they can't. Most? I really doubt it.

One odd side effect of working from home is I can hear the work laptop from the bathroom.

Which has given me new appreciation for the way people manage to IM me *right* as I'm taking a dump.

Sorry guys! You're #3.

(please do reply if you claim these so I can delete the toot)

@ElectricKeet what flavor of cable? Monoprice is still decent, BHPhotoVideo is too. Newegg kinda went to crap.

Today's bored doephin moment: freaking out the woodpecker on the other side of my bedroom wall by knocking back when it pecks the wall

@Phorm Nah it matters. Even if you catch it less initial colonization is a Good Thing

I heard the same "it's inevitable" about Delta. And yeah this one's faster but it's not magic. Ultra fast spread yes but most people mask badly of at all..

Hell mom's nursing home had an outbreak and beat it back with just 3 cases.

@Phorm what they do instead here is throw your entire order in the freezer. this avoids what you got but is sub optimal for, say, any fresh food

It would be nice if delivery and pickup were actually functional :/

I suppose ordering the dry goods ahead then getting the rest in store at least minimizes exposure time

Stupid pet peeve of the moment: the speed of light on vacuum could be exactly 300,000 km/s. The meter is defined in terms of c and when doing that they could have made it slightly bigger and made c that.

this probably would have been a stupid idea but :D

@catgoat "weight loss surgery. .you mean like taking all this weight off my chest?"

It probably says something about how this game of Factorio is going that I just rebuilt my air filter factory to make landmines.

(I actually make reusable filters now so it was obsolete, but the mental image is funny)

It's not often I'm making fun of things in dreams let alone the soundtrack but tonight managed

(trying to map "You've got the beat" to in dream events in a way that DID NOT MAKE SENSE)

@kistaro foia (freedom of information act) probably
