Spastic Hamburger

Ooh, I like that. I may do some decorating next year, at least inside. Could be fun! 🙂

More election humor!

Will see if I can check it out 🙂

Been watching Classic Doctor Who and Xena: Warrior Princess lately. The latter is a really weird show with a ton of anachronisms. Of course, it’s right up my alley as it winds up being hilarious 😛

So powertop is what is used in Linux land but its report options are limited. Looking into it 🙂

There are some cool places on the US list, such as the Greenbrier 🙂

Most of our transportation and utility companies are set up as wholly owned or at least partially owned subsidies with the government being the primary party. There have also been a few occasions where we nationalized an organization not owned by the government, such as during…[Read more]

Homemade miso paste doesn’t look too difficult to make. Maybe it’ll be worth a try sometime?

The homemade sauerkraut was good when I made it s few years ago

I personally use Meld on the rare occasion I feel like using a graphical tool. Usually, I just use the terminal and, for more complex stuff, redirect the output to a file which I then load in my text-editor (also helps me share the changes more easily). Maybe it’ll work better?

Yeah, Logitech’s keyboards seem to have longevity issues. My dad’s old keyboards wound up with broken keycaps after just a few years. Not sure how he did that, honestly. 😛

Their mice seem to still be solid, though 🙂

Not familiar with that brand but the appearance is pretty sharp 🙂

I have a SteelSeries, which is quite nice. Heavy, too, so it…[Read more]

I wouldn’t worry about .NET 3.5 being installed: that’s required by several system packages. Microsoft has been slowly upgrading them to use the newer versions, though.

Yuck. I was hooking up a lamp the other day and found that one of the two sockets in an outlet was bad so I’ll need to get that fixed at some point. Annoying when that happens. Fortunately, it was just a lamp and nothing important but it does mean I’m down a plug! 😛

So is anyone doing anything with blockchain anymore outside of crypto-currency? There was a lot of activity surrounding the concept several years ago and then, after a couple of years, poof. Nothing.

Have no real experience with it myself but it looks like they were last online around 2024. It came out around the time that I had mostly lost interest in playing the games and I never was much of one to use community modifications. From what I understand, though, the big thing with it was shaders (at least initially). I never had stability issues…[Read more]

Here’s an interesting list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oldest_companies

Lots of Japanese companies and breweries on there

It sounds like there could have been an outage during a critical Windows process. Windows is much less forgiving about those situations than *nix. It’s possible you may need to reinstall the OS

If I remember correctly, CSM is mostly for older technologies such as IDE that pre-date SATA drives (as well as older add-in cards). Granted, it’s been a…[Read more]

More infrastructure should be designed as art forms. Civilization would look so much better if it weren’t covered in bland industrial displays. Just as an example, the Eiffel Tower and Statue of Liberty could have cellular aerials on top. Streetlights could have a whimsical appearance, like sunflowers. Just make things look better!

I miss easily…[Read more]

Oculus was pretty good. Of course, I generally like anything with Sackhoff 🙂

I actually don’t have a cat 😛

Those articles are some that came in a long time ago which I felt like checking up on again 🙂

What amazes me is that people actually need instructions to unwrap their candy bars 😛

And came across this tidbit the other day:…[Read more]

The original Candyman was excellent. Next up is the Mothman Prophecies. May go back to classic horror films soon. Those were always fun and I’ve been in the mood for Vincent Price

You could try reseating it. That sometimes helps

And Dark. Dark was good! Bad dubbing but the rest of it was amazing! Still mad over Dark Matter. I’ll always be mad that it got cancelled before they wrapped things up. 😛

Tubi has a good selection of older horror films (and even some newer stuff from the 80’s). 🙂

House was fun (very much a B-movie) but it was rather jarring since it was hard…[Read more]

It is now October. What does that mean? Time to start watching horror films again!
