On the other side of this, you have company’s that are in tangential fields looking to grab up a piece of that pie. Electricians, low voltage companies, fucking furniture companies (oh, we totally do audiovisual, that’s similar enough), the C-suite is trying to force their way into this new golden goose and expecting their staff to be able to handle this without training, time, or real hands on experience. And, no, a 2 day workshop from a manufacturer isn’t really “training”, at least not the only training needed…

I tried to get a job at LCBO, but apparently “taste tester” isn’t an actual job there, but they were incredibly apologetic that it didn’t exist, and said they would call me if anything changed.

I can sing all the lyrics to Dicke Titten. Does that count?

Well, but you have an international airport close by, a major mall, rent’s in the mail, and you can always find a parking space. Women out number the men two to one and there’s parks and zoos and… Shhh.

Yeah Famous Dave seems to have lost a step since he sold his namesake…

I mean… Dave Anderson’s Old Southern BBQ is called southern… Won some awards.

To be fair, I have only had BBQ in Texas and Memphis, so grain of salt.

Else you have black market st. Paul - wouldn’t call it “southern” when it’s -10 degrees and they are smoking up some pork, but damn good smoked BBQ.

Minnesota State fair. Boiled peanuts were added in 2022.

Next?

Yeah. Not a word. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/tenbillionaire

There’s also a billionaire commune in South Dakota…

So if I turn the car battery upside down, a 12v DC battery should run a 120v AC appliance?? Brilliant! I have an idea for how we can use this with two fans to create infinite energy!

Do all of them, the. Put 10 in the fridge for when you’re hungry later.

Omg this is amazing.

Not only is this awesome, but their list of books stores to support has expanded my bookstore list by like 20 places…

Also a dishrag that belongs in a kitchen: 28th Virginia Battle Flag

In the past, rainbow flags were used as a sign to students that you as a teacher were available for anyone to come talk if they needed support, and that your classroom was a safe space. This was especially important for some of the most stigmatized and marginalized groups in the US.

So there is a bit of history behind it.

This may only be anecdotal, and I can’t quote statistics on how effective or important pride flags are to that type of support now, but a close friend of mine who came out in high school first came out to a trusted teacher. They ONLY did this because the pride flag to them meant someone who might understand. It was a year or so later when this person came out to our friend group, and only because of the guidance of that individual who help them through some serious shit, and got them the support infrastructure they needed.

Do you know what BSOD is?

And then donate to the devs directly?

It isn’t. It would most likely be windows IoT. it’s an embedded windows OS that allows for a single app instance to be running.

You’d be surprised how many things run windows IoT right now…

It would first have to pass the “dangerous and unusual weapons” test before even getting to the bearable test… At least according to ScaliaLaw.

So… Literally the same voice input, but now with more time overhead waiting for responses so that it can be a bit more human sounding?
