What exactly is the point of these unit conversions Wolfram Alpha gave me?

Is this even legal? I think this isn't actually from who it claims to be from, though it's a convincing fake if so.

Turns out they make heatsinks for TO-92 packages. Felthry was cracking up when it saw this one the other day; it looks ridiculous.

You don't generally use anything in a TO-92 package if it's going to be dissipating any significant amount of heat, so I'm really not sure what the point of this heatsink is, but it certainly does look ridiculous.

PMD Sky is a great game, but why would you subject yourself to this?

I'm not exaggerating either, it really is just those two words.

I thought we wouldn't be able to find @Felthry in this game, since it doesn't have Johto pokemon, but no, it was just hiding!

Having a vulpix and a growlithe was the closest I could get to having me. That said, it is giving me some multi-body feels...

vaguely pol-adjacent 

I just searched on duckduckgo to see if there was any news from the Opportunity rover (which has been inactive since June due to a dust storm putting it in low-power mode), and... Seriously? Fox News is being that negative about it? The Opportunity rover has already lasted far, far longer than it was ever planned to! I know it's Fox News but come on. Typical for them to focus on the money, too.

Apparently you can't post an image without text, so here's some text.

Everyone look at this amazing sketchpage @catterfly did of me! (with bonus @Felthry in the colored one!) I am very excited to have this! ^.^ ^.^

I think we're in the mood to complain about mastodon annoyances tonight, because we're also annoyed at how it seems to auto-convert gifs to video files, leading to Felthry and I seeing this awoo.space/media/1yntKgf1LOZeN which we then click on to see this awoo.space/media/l5WWYqbfzTH7Y and then the entire page reloads when we click OK and that makes the columns all scroll back to the top.
