Last Notes npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog The low standards of the apple watch amuse me. If I walk more than 3 blocks to get from one place to another, it assumes I'm "working out". npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Drive a mile in my tires. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Would it be cursed to brew a peppermint "tea" in hot chocolate? npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog seagulls need more weapon pylons in general npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I wish birds had vertical stabilizers. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I believe it's if you land on an opposing player's piece while they aren't in the safe zone. There are also slides and multiple play pieces. It's got a little randomness to it, but also some light strategy. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Not familiar with ludo, but the boards look similar. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I always liked Sorry. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog He's got like, 20 varieties. I just don't get it. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Watching Seinfeld clips. I've heard things about the apartment size being unrealistic, but the real question is, why does he have so much fucking cereal? https://frogdrool.net/system/media_attachments/files/116/661/656/083/589/645/original/8601a38960e3dae2.png npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I feel like I should add another monitor and just have it play TNG episodes in a loop. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog It's that low center of gravity. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I did dinner this year https://frogdrool.net/system/media_attachments/files/115/782/820/203/533/303/original/8f709c618ab39e02.jpeg npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I never really liked Smash Mouth, but "Walking on the Sun" was groovy as fuck. It jams. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Anyone know of an open source or really moddable "space" game engine? I have a concept, but developing it from scratch seems daunting. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Like fuck, I pay a guy a few bucks and I get my very own ip address and entry in some kind of global database that points it it that every computer in the world agrees with? A little overkill. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I am also hosting a personal mastodon instance, so I guess that's on brand. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Comfort buying expensive and completely overkill networking equipment. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog The company they used to contract for the animation also had some pretty good local pest control commercials on their youtube channel. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I want a copy of Shirer's "Rise and Fall of the Third Reich", but I don't know if I'd be comfortable reading it in public given the massive fucking swastika on the cover. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I’m not paying for the hotel room I’m staying at, but I’d be livid when I learned about the $25 a day mandatory hospitality fee, $15 of which is can be used at their restaurant that has entrees starting at $22 and $12 pints. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog We won’t pandar to you. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog At least if he's sleeping he's not plowing into "low value" pedestrians. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Don't really have a solid read on him yet as I've only seen a few of his videos, but he is entertaining. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog There is certain software I use for my job that only has a gui, but if there were text based equivalents, I could probably survive. I'm assuming TUIs count. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I would have thought "food" and "gore" were redundant in your case. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Wolf Road Prairie is one of the vanishingly few unmolested patches of prairie in the United States. Originally, it was destined to be a housing development. They built a few sidewalks, but the development fell through before they began clearing the land. As I understand it, It’s surrounded by stripmalls now. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Leaving Chicago. I wanted to visit the Wolf Road Prairie, but unfortunately it would’ve been 2 hours to get out there and 2 hours back. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Their bacon mac and cheese is pretty good, as is their ravioli with sausage specks. Above average for frozen stuff. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog 2nding. I spent 4 days in LA leaving Sunday. I hadn't really been reading news at all and didn't even know about the protests until my friend asked me about it. Ended up walking right through it on the way to Union Station to catch my train. It was about a 3 square block area. Street vendors were selling hot dogs and fresh fruit. Lots of kids. With the exception of one metro line shutting down, Union station was operating as normal blocks away. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog As an admin, I wish I had a "suspend and report" option so I could forward to the instance of the offending post. It's kind of awkward to report posts to myself, then suspend them, especially for low effort spammers. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog My standard for consent is to pretend the thing I'm consenting to is being physically done by a person. It'd be super weird if I bought a used car from some one and they asked me if they could follow me around. It'd also be super weird for a stranger to ask to follow me around writing down the things I put into my cart at the grocery store. If I called a taxi, it'd be super weird if the driver asked me if he could look through my phone contacts and copy them down. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I want to get to the point where contacting me requires a boat and a local that knows the area. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Behold, the A-5 Vigilante. A nuclear bomber that poops bombs on you. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_A-5_Vigilante npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog True npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog If it's what I think it is, you're likely to be disappointed. I've seen a lot of these under several brand names and they're all borderline unusable. Unable to focus, super dim etc etc. Good luck though. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog HAHAHAHA I'M DECOMPILING SOFTWARE IN BLATANT VIOLATION OF THE EULA AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO STOP ME. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I get shit for Mangione, but I don't care, this slaps so hard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDSBV0vTfTo npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I think it's cheating if you're not wearing them. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Trinity is neat, but the bomb site itself was pretty underwhelming to me. It basically looks like a gravel parking lot with a chain link fence around it. Most of the trinitite has been cleaned up and buried. The ranch house where they assembled the bomb and the drive in were the most interesting to me. They have lots of weird antennas and giant mirrors for missile testing. Be sure and take advantage of this photo op at the ranch. https://frogdrool.net/system/media_attachments/files/113/540/019/401/311/642/original/9e8b070b6fbe24bb.jpg npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Thinkpads don’t even have a handle. I’m willing to be frugal, but what good is a laptop without a handle and hot swappable dvd drive? https://frogdrool.net/system/media_attachments/files/113/489/999/959/659/118/original/1590b3d54298f70c.jpg npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog 10/10 porch. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Starting a side hustle https://frogdrool.net/system/media_attachments/files/113/330/505/249/276/295/original/99f18cc38cc1c402.jpeg npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog no ideas for the pipes, but I just realized that's *your* mouse cursor after several seconds of confusion. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog The ARRL license manuals are fantastic. I reference mine all the time. They're written very well and offer a really good introduction to amateur radio. I also appreciate the binding lets you fold the book flat and keep it open to a specific page. https://home.arrl.org/action/Store/Product-Details/productId/2003373064 npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I'll take Journey instead of the 4 different Train songs I had to hear today at work. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog That logo has always made me smile. npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog I was immediately eaten by crocodiles. Fuck around and find out I guess. https://frogdrool.net/system/media_attachments/files/112/947/306/200/615/831/original/8c031ff04944ec85.jpg npub13ffwgs0l9fevn8dh2mwyt8tu5hgc7cgf4d0epldm02vu6sxnxgjqnlr3y3 frog Ok, I'm in. https://frogdrool.net/system/media_attachments/files/112/947/226/636/782/056/original/ef99d508c3c796b6.png
