My dog is always sweet but not always chill. We were about to take a ferry from Vancouver Island back to Washington so I gave her a chill pill before we left the house. She hates them so I normally just use the. on the fourth of July and new Year’s Eve due to all the fireworks in my neighborhood. Ferry seemed like a high stress environment as well.

We stopped at a breakfast joint with outdoor seating and she hopped up next to me on the picnic table bench and was just so chill. So many people came up and pet her praising her calmness. I didn’t have the heart to tell them she was just high as a kite. I think all the affection made up for her not liking the chill pills.

When I was 12 or 13 I’d walk into town to check out the used cd stores all the time. Seems pretty normal.

He never gonna give you up.

I basically flipped my schedule when I worked nights. Went to bed at 9 or 10 am and woke up at 4 or 5 pm. I struggled on Wednesday when I wanted to stay “up late” until noon or 2pm and would then sleep until 10 pm.

Much happier back on days with a regular schedule. Though I do miss grocery shopping at 6am or getting to the trail at the crack of dawn since I was already up.

Oh I didn’t notice it did that. thanks for fixing it.

There are 8.0658*10^67 orders you can shuffle a card deck in.

The math is easy. It’s just 52! if your calculator has that function which is really 525150…32*1. There are 52 possibilities for the first card 51 for the second since you’ve already used one card and so on.

How many decks of cards have been shuffled over human history, or will be is beyond me.

Great News! There’s a new Dacia Sandero!

Pretty much everyone has some kind of allergy, so probably.

I broke the screen on mine doing the transplant. Was able to get a new screen to fix it but it made it a 100 dollar project instead of a 20 dollar project.

My dad read “All summer in a day” to me when I was 5ish. I think I was being mean to another kid and he was trying to teach me a lesson. That story still sucks me up.

I don’t know who really makes fun of how other people pee, 12 year olds on the Internet?

Usually I stand, but if need to shit I sit or if it’s the middle of the night and I don’t want to turn on lights or sometimes I just feel like it.

I clean the mat in front of the toilet every week and clean the toilet every few weeks. I do spot wipes daily.

Check out unciv. It’s an open source remake of civ v with simplified graphics.

Don’t blame me if this ruins your life.

I like biking but don’t do much of it anymore because of crazy drivers.

I’m sure plenty of pedestrians have been killed by cyclists. I’ve almost been run over multiple times by spandex warriors running red lights. I’m not convinced if you looked at percentages and not raw numbers you wouldn’t find just as many irresponsible cyclists as you do drivers. I see multiple drivers doing something stupid every day and I see a cyclist every week or two doing something stupid. Difference is I see 200 cars a day and 4 cyclists.

The best thing for your safety on a bike is to let the aggressive driver go, not to police them. Antagonizing an irate driver is a recipe for disaster no matter if you are in a car, on a bike or a pedestrian.

Ugh I miss play music. It was such a good service. YT music was a joke as a replacement.

Volumio - Multiroom audio service. You install the os on a pi and hook up some speakers. The basic streamer is free for local files on a single device at a time. I paid $200 for a lifetime pass a few years ago. That gets you multiroom synced audio like Sonos and lets you add in streaming services.

Qobuz - Music streaming service. Much higher quality than Spotify, no shitty MQA like Tidal. They will have articles diving into a genre, band or record label with links to notable albums. It’s “station” playlists and similar artist recommendations are garbage but I’m more of an album person.

You don’t need to say Transparency mode is the best thing ever in ten comments.

Transparency mode is not nearly the same as open headphones. Its fine for a quick conversation but isn’t good at providing awareness of your surroundings. It has its place and is a great feature, but it’s not going to cut it for people looking for open headphones.

Vile.

Worst was this girl making an uncomfortable amount of eye contact the whole time. It was like she was trying to start her way into my soul. I’d make eye contact to talk but kept having to look away because she was just too intense. I would not be surprised if she was some sort of succubus or siren trying to drain my life force.

After about an hour she asks if I have autism… I went to the bathroom and called one of my friends to vent. When I returned she asked if there was going to be a second date… There was not.

Did you use optimal tip to tip efficiency when giving 100 BJs. Otherwise whose got time for that.

My ethics on piracy are it depends on who’s profiting. If the original writer is dead and the estate is profiting like Tolkien, fuck em. If the book is good but the author sucks like Orson Scott Card, fuck em. A living writer who you want to keep writing books, go out and buy that shit or at least get it from Libby.

Also humble bundle is a great source for building a large legal library. Though sometimes they tie bundles to kobo which sucks. They didn’t used to do that.
