Unfortunately I think this is actually not an option for me, I have a lot of obsolete hardware that I still use. The hoard is mostly spare data or power cables for shit like my VCR/laserdisc/old game consoles

god only knows. the cable board is a mystery. it gives you what you need, if you come to it with a pure heart and good intentions
kat cosgrove (@kat.lol) reply parent
there's a serial port mouse in there
kat cosgrove (@kat.lol)
just packed a large box of random obsolete cables. it's lived in three countries and three states but one time something i needed was in there, so it makes the cut once again

alllll the way back to the US. I'm shipping a pallet, so space isn't an issue. each tier can go into its own box if that's better, i just really don't want to risk having to rebuild it. took forfuckingever

it comes apart into three tiers but like, what's the best way to make sure this thing doesn't fall apart in transit? is just cocooning it in a metric fuckton of bubble wrap sufficient? am i allowed to super glue the wimpy bits in place

Imagine being surprised that a well-known monster enjoyer, whose body of work includes several examples of the monster being a sympathetic character, has made a movie where the monster is a sympathetic character out of the book that arguably defined the genre

Not to fearmonger, but considering the state of reproductive rights in the US and Oura's new partnership with Palantir, I don't think anyone with a uterus should be using one. Or any other device that can track your period.

Legit I just walked out of my local Tesco Express and half the bread aisle is soft, packaged bread like she describes here lol
kat cosgrove (@kat.lol) reply parent
Anyway I love woke bread
kat cosgrove (@kat.lol) reply parent
Also, the sourdough here is bland and ass. Simultaneously the driest and gummiest sourdough I've ever had. If that was my first impression of sourdough I'd probably hate it too
kat cosgrove (@kat.lol)
Extremely funny that one of the things Europeans love to (wrongly) rag on Americans for is our bread, and yet here's one yearning for a loaf of white bread (which they absolutely do have here, I know because I just walked out of a Tesco)

Bring back corny sci-fi. I want 9 seasons of a human ending up in space with a rag-tag group of dysfunctional aliens and shitty practical effects. Each season needs to have a goofy comic relief episode. The human must have wild sexual tension with an alien who looks human but isn't

Yeah I've heard that too, and two of my cats are hella old so I'm trying to make the trip as short as possible. A little hop to Frankfurt to switch airlines is fine but a detour through Canada is a no-go.
kat cosgrove (@kat.lol) reply parent
I'll keep you posted on the details of moving pets back. Gonna try to fly with them in-cabin, which I think limits you to KLM in economy out of the UK, but Lufthansa *allegedly* allows them in business class so I'm going to try switching in Frankfurt.

Because your original take (that ESO deserves to be Incubating) is so off that I can't imagine committing to it this hard without benefit. You said they deserve Incubation despite what they did and then argued about it for a day. Am I now to understand that you didn't really mean that?

I am genuinely baffled that you are so committed to vilifying the TOC because they refused to level up a project after that project BLACKMAILED THEIR USERS. The poor behavior here is on the adopters for not helping to maintain it, not the TOC. What do you gain here? There has to be something.

Hold on now, are these not still a thing? I have one with a magnet on the back so it stays stuck to the fridge. The only reason it's not currently on my fridge is because fridges in the UK often have a cabinet door on the outside, and so are not magnetic.

kat cosgrove (@kat.lol) reply parent
You are repeatedly ignoring the specific issue at hand here: the project maintainers threatened to stop releases because they lack the maintainers to handle it. That is unhealthy. The TOC cannot recommend an unhealthy project that could fall over at any time. There is no other way to look at it.
