My partner went to a convention in another city. He was caught off guard by the number of dudes in leather and fetishwear that he saw around the hotel when he first arrived but just thought the city must have a diverse and adventurous night life.

The next morning on his way out he spotted a poster, it was “The Bear Ball” weekend, some disco themed big gay guy event, and the hotel he was in was the headquarters, which explains why most of the other attendants of his conference were being housed in a different hotel.

He said he had some great people watching for the next couple days.

Yep I do the email thing. And yeah, I know they all share everything, but at least I make them work for it.

I don’t know how much my privacy is actually being respected but I do go for the “use as many different services as possible so no company knows absolutely everything about me.” Approach.

I have a Garmin watch. I press a button on it twice, and within a minute or so a group of people I selected recieve an email with a live link, that shows my path and current location. Once I press the button again my live location ends but the list of people can still see my whole “activity”. I think that expires on 24 hours but I’m not sure on that.

It’s use is supposedly to show off exercising? I use it when I’m out hunting public land and might be wandering away from my truck or driving to several nearby trailheads in a day and don’t want to have to remember to tell my other half “I know I said I was going to Fish Lake but so got distracted and stopped at Deer mountain and then drove to Owlfield but I parked on the south side of the trailhead but ended up walking north 3 miles…”

So I paid for nebula, but it seems totally vacant. I’m not mad, I’m happy to spend the money supporting small creators/any independent endeavour, but am I missing something??

Thanks for the correction.

I think he is a naked mole rat and the coconut reference is from something Harris said shortly after Biden stepped down.

That’s already very common and should be shut down, but usually it applies to the particular service you are using… Not whatever this bullshit is…

Where’s Cats Eyes!!!???

Simple example from yesterday: My stupid pixel 8 phone has a green line on the screen. I look up how to get warrantee and think “wow, at least Google knowing everything about me will be helpful in this case” and after a few misdirects to garbage online user forum to try and get me to solve this problem myself I get prompted with “which device is the problem?”

Google pixel 8

Some camera I had but was stolen, and google knows this because they refused to replace it even though I went through the bother to report it stolen to police because they claim they will send a new one

So I click the phone next page says “this phone?” -serial number

Click

That you bought on this date from us?

Click

Good news it’s under warranty! Would you like to start the process?

Thought I’d already started it but… Click

Please enter the serial number or IMwhatever code. Click here for instructions on where to find this on your phone.

… Click back 2 pages, copy and paste the # they told me

WRONG CODE

take the space that was at the front for some reason

Great! Here are the next steps…

Me: wtf is this garbage…

Answering honestly: so that shitty people can like shitty things without the consequences. They can broadcast their views without having to answer for them, and down the line it’s easier to manipulate likes so Elon can sell likes or remove likes from anything he pleases, which allows twitter to create “public opinion” that won’t be in line with actual public opinion.

Great content isn’t necessarily everyone’s prefered content. Having it all in one place helps people who want to see it see it and people who don’t don’t have to. Win win.

Black and Decker owns DeWalt.

Currently playing Fear and Hunger after watching SEWs video on it, multiple times.

I did think this was one of his weaker videos, but it was still a good watch.

Extirpated.

Tool assisted speed run. People write programs to run the game over and over, and by doing that they can prove or disprove potential strats, routes and such and then humans can try them.

What op should do is tap/slide the boards all to one end so the gaps all come together as one big gap at the less important side of the room. Maybe there’s a bookcase or tv against that wall so they don’t step there.

That was comedy gold and everybody missed it.

That image is decades old, I recall it from my middle school years (right around 2000). When I saw it I recognised it immediately and another user also noted they recognise it so I don’t think we’re mistaken.

“Passage” is a very short one. But the choices matter.

Raccoon Saloon on YouTube is a live camera for racoons if anyone else needs more of this.
