Oh no!

Anyway, how’s your weekend been going?

I’ll see myself out

2 years later, somewhere in their sales and marketing departments:

“Hey, you know what would make us even more money?”

“No, but do tell”

“Advertising”

“Genius - how is it nobody has ever thought of this before?”

Roku somehow thinking that the Ferengi rules of acquisition was a how-to guide book.

Jeff Geerling discusses having done the same, in one of his videos.

Ditto the keys per keyboard.

And the keys look like lightly toasted marshmallows.

What sort of cabling, do you suppose?

Strong Cable Support Infrastructure?

Wild. It was only just yesterday that I’d learned of the phrase “caused me to stumble” within a religious context, courtesy of the “in my super-fundamentalist church back in the nineties” guy on IG.

“This here’s the Lockpocking Lawyer, and today we’re going to take a closer look at the Flipper Zero….”

What the autotldr bot didn’t capture is this:

In 2016, the officer who shot him, then-Const. James Forcillo, was found not guilty of second-degree murder in connection with the first volley of bullets, which court heard was fatal. He was convicted of attempted murder for the second volley, which was fired when Yatim was already on the ground.

Forcillo was sentenced to six and a half years behind bars and was granted full parole in 2020.

I’m not entirely clear on where “homicide” falls on the “second-degree murder” / “attempted murder” scale, though. To me, homicide has always meant the murdery type of murder. What does it mean for Forcillo?

As a somewhat recent arrival to NZ, I found it interesting — starting with our rental car — that the speed limit is displayed on your dashboard. It changes colour as soon as you go 1 km over the limit.

All very cool. The most notable issue with this is there are sections of roads where this doesn’t work at all.

That said, there is a LOT of traffic calming here.

There’s still the occasional assclown that goes way over the limit. Unsurprisingly, that usually happens on long, straight roads without traffic calming.

Completely random, and nothing to do with anything:

Mice, which stands for “money”, “ideology”, “coercion/compromise” and “ego”.

Yes, but you have to have a moustache and act like you speak Italian

Back in the Before Times of Reddit, there was a guy who knew quite a bit about vacuums. Did an AMA at least a few times.

Long story short, powders such as baking soda or any of the common ‘freshness’ options damage vacuums. Avoid using them.
