the Hearth @Felthry@awoo.space

turns out a problem we've had at work for several days is because philips's semiconductor division (long since divested) decided that pin 1 on a TO-92 ought to be the rightmost pin

why would you *do* that

@Hayling@weirder.earth everything morningsong said is about what we were going to say. if you haven't seen them, techmoan on youtube might be a good resource; he knows his stuff with audio equipment of that era

also generally you want to avoid new record players, go for a used one from sony or technics or one of the other good brands

@gardevoir The kind of storytelling that dark souls became famous for
-F

@gardevoir also we thought they were pretty neat
-F

@gardevoir i guess it feels less obscure to us since it's tied up in our last memories of being really into pokemon cards, we stopped being into them shortly after it was a thing and that's the state pokemon cards are frozen in in our mind
-F

@socks @gardevoir i guess they've kinda brought it back though, with the regional variants in the last couple games
-F

@socks @gardevoir it was new around when we stopped paying much attention to pokemon cards, i guess we didn't realize it didn't keep on as a mechanic
-F

@gardevoir is delta species that obscure a thing? huh

@tabitha@chitter.xyz good for heatshrink

@P1L0T @monsterblue i'm not going to look at that, sorry; i trust fragment et al to know when something is going to be a thing we don't want to know the details about, and particularly right before bed that would be bad
-F

@squirrellilly@queer.party there's one particularly egregious one because it's completely risk free (the enemy is nowhere near you, you just shoot it with one arrow and it runs straight towards you off a cliff), gives like 11k runes, and respawns whenever you rest at the grace that's literally, no exaggeration, like six feet from where you can shoot from
-F

@P1L0T @monsterblue okay i will proceed to not know then
-F

@squirrellilly@queer.party wait until you find the spot where you can farm one enemy right next to a grace by baiting it off a cliff repeatedly
-F

@monsterblue sorry about the whole what thing
-F

@kat oh that would require a lot more explanation for us then
-F

@kat i want to hear the joke and its explanation
-F

!!attention!!

Cute spider! they want uppies!!

@VoxSomniator it's not as good as we remember--the flavors are nice, but don't last very long
-F

@VoxSomniator we recently got a box of canel's gum because we realized you can just order that online and we hadn't had it in like, a decade

fond memories of getting a pack of that for a quarter at a mexican restaurant where we grew up
-F

@VoxSomniator canel's! i don't think there's a blue flavor of those, though there is a violet one (it's literally violet flavor, like the flower)
