Iced Raktajino@startrek.websiteto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•On Wheel Of Fortune final round, they start with the letters RSTLNE. Then they ask for three additional consonants and a vowel. I'd say D, C, K, and I..6·3 days agoThose letters probably wouldn’t be very helpful, so it’d basically be a $25,000 dick joke lol.
(Or whatever the grand-prize value is these days)
Iced Raktajino@startrek.websiteOPto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•We'll never have anything like the DVD screensaver ever again2·6 days agoFor sure. My shower thought is just that they won’t be anything like the simple pleasure of the DVD screensaver. It would probably ads that cycle through.
Iced Raktajino@startrek.websiteOPto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•We'll never have anything like the DVD screensaver ever again9·6 days agoI know right? If you can find a better one that pays out, send me a link and I’ll happily update the post. I couldn’t find one that wasn’t forced and only went in the corner.

Iced Raktajino@startrek.websiteOPto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•We'll never have anything like the DVD screensaver ever again6·6 days agoI felt that. It took me 3 overnight sessions to download the “Throw a pie at Bill Gates” screensaver over 14.4 dial-up back in the day.

No super powers, just a smart woman doing her thing.
Iced Raktajino@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Have you seen progressive people be discriminatory either intentionally or unintentionally and if so in what way?3910·8 days agoConstantly. Usually it takes the form of reducing topics to binary choices and/or purity tests.
- “You’re either with me or against me / You’re either part of the solution or part of the problem”
- Where “part of the solution” means doing exactly, and only exactly what they think you should be doing.
- “If you don’t satisfy all of my impossible requirements, you’re
as bad asa nazi” - “We only agree on 99 out of 100 things, so clearly you’re not to be trusted”
- etc
- “You’re either with me or against me / You’re either part of the solution or part of the problem”

Iced Raktajino@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are Combo Convection/Microwave Ovens Legit or a Gimmick?2·11 days agoYeah. I read a bit more since I commented, and Alton Brown doesn’t just approve - he actually helped design it.
The cost of those is definitely why I still have a mono-vection oven haha.
Iced Raktajino@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are Combo Convection/Microwave Ovens Legit or a Gimmick?6·11 days agoI’m not a fan of single-purpose appliances (microwave notwithstanding), and I recently got a toaster oven / air fryer / grill (so no microwave) and I love it. Haven’t used my full size oven in the 3 months I’ve had this one.
The “Trivection Oven” (as seen on 30 Rock) is a real appliance, and includes microwave heating as one of the 'vections. I believe the microwave heating is just to speed up cooking with the thermal and convection heat for crisping.
Are they a gimmick? Honestly, no clue. I’ve not used one, but the logic checks out and Alton Brown approves.
To be fair, #32 is just me.

Iced Raktajino@startrek.websiteto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•Mary Wiseman’s Tilly Will Be In ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy,’ But Not As Much As ExpectedEnglish16·13 days agoIt’s very likely I’m mis-remembering the BTS stuff, but I always thought the whole reason they wrote her out in S4 was to feature her in ST: Academy. I’m assuming now that was either never correct or something majorly changed.
Iced Raktajino@startrek.websiteOPto memes@lemmy.world•“It’s a Dog Eat Dog World and I’m Wearing Milkbone Underwear”5·13 days agoBryan Cranston kind-of? He had some minor movie roles before television and then larger movie roles after.
Will Ferrell, technically. Plus most of the other SNL actors who started there and did films later (though many of those were based on SNL skits). Tina Fey, though, plays it straight. She started as a writer, joined the cast of SNL, and did TV and movies later. Granted, I wouldn’t call any of them “movie stars”.

Update: Yes! Seems to be. Calipers confirm the diameter. TYVM!
Thanks. I’ll grab my calipers and confirm if the measurements are correct. Specs say MHF4 is 1.13mm.
