Those never work for me anyway (probably ad/tracker blocking, but good luck with that 🙄) Thankfully archive links (and sometimes just reader mode/disabling Javascript) still work. Hostility to readers is a terrible way to encourage a paid subscription.

I mean, they're often not putting the good ones on pizza so they don't taste as mild as the ones you get as an appetizer at a nice Italian place. The pizza ones are basically little salt umami bombs, so consider that before you order em.

Yeah, I dig pineapple and pepperoni (sweet/salty/spicy combo), but it's cool if other people don't dig it. Honestly, I'm OK with basically any toppings typically on offer from pizza places. Always heard anchovies were nasty but then I had some good ones and I'm like nope, I like those too 🤷

"That's why people are so angry about AI: there's nothing wrong with the idea of automating some tasks through advanced statistical techniques, but the reason so much of the world's scarce resources have been allocated to the AI buildout is that billionaires are infinitely horny for a technology that will let them sideline expertise in favor of money"

This is why one of my favorite words in the moving-pictures world is "miniseries". Long enough to have some meat to it. Defined enough to have a predetermined story arc and not default to "an unknown number of seasons, a long as we keep getting renewed, I guess? 🤔"

Thought this was just "shooting the shit about a band". My bad.

Eh, could never get into them/him. And I've def made fun of em before. But since it ain't the mid/late 90s and I don't live in a dorm anymore, I don't have to hear them daily, so meh, just another band I'm not really into. I'm sure they're fine people (except that one guy).

Edinburgh is such a great city. Granted I went during summer, but it's gross out in the winter here too, so free pass. England/Scotland was my post-covid "I've been saving up my restlessness" trip.

*(also hopefully you reminded them that for the most part, you don't "own" online/streaming music - you're only renting access 😬)

Yep! Don't need this specific brand. And like most adapters, there's always a slight chance a given one won't work with your device if it uses its own particular internal wiring. Most you'll find online or in stores will have some sort of indication of what it's compatible with.

This thing was one of the best $15 I ever spent. There are definitely minor pros/cons vs having the connector/DAC as part of the cord (can use one adapter with multiple sets of headphones you already own, can potentially lose the adapter). But despite resenting the *need* I was glad for the option.
USB-C to 3.5mm adapter

A glock is a glizzy. And a glizzy is a hot dog. A hot dog is a weiner. And a weiner...well, that's a penis.

I made the mistake of looking at that stuff once when I'd been on here for like a month. Legit bummed me out for a minute. So I never looked again. Fuckem.

Did you buy the game? If so, it's likely still honorable to play it on any other gamecube emulator.

Too bad we never had a deal in place to keep that from happening while also keeping supply chains open.

Was glad to see it wasn't a lot of jump scares. Dude was creeping toward Shia the Beef territory, but I enjoyed the "random chump" perspective versus the "hardened/unlikely badass" we usually get.

Way too much effort to get a paywall bypass 😅 Think I'll stick to a regular old Firefox extension for that and skip the vibe-coded dumpster fire of spyware, security holes, and propaganda.

Was gonna say "gambling" as well, but that's kind of a catch-all that covers crypto (at least in the way the concept has been abused). I guess the outermost venn circle would be "get-rich-quick scams & other shady ways to hide the transfer of money or extract it from victims".
