hmmmm frozen potatoes…brb, I just remembered I’ve got fries in my freezer

To @megopie@beehaw.org’s point, there is almost no competition where I live. There’s Kroger, and if you’re very lucky an ALDI. A decade ago there were half a dozen within a 30m drive of my home. I remember going through all the Ads, putting together a list of what was on sale where, and setting out early Saturday morning to hit 2-3 of them. Today it’s all Kroger stores everywhere, and they set the prices based on the the lack of competition

Prior to the website rpmfind.net, installing software was to put it mildly, a chore. Due to package dependency, you’d start the compile, and it would fail due to missing libraries. You’d then go out and find those libraries, only to have them fail on compile…due to missing libraries…it would go on like until you finally were able to compile the original package - at this point though you compiled it out of sheer spite for the universe that put you in that position.

I rate the experience a solid 5/7

I hadn’t thought about which direction it’d be pointed, I guess I assumed it would be pointed forwards…as a warning to all of my enemies - especially if they include Artic Char, those guys need to lighten up and let me smack them with my sweet long tooth

It’s all good, as long as it points forward, and not up, or down…I’d hate to be tripping over it - but it would be so worth it to go around smacking fish for no good reason 😂

Forget sharks with lasers, I want a narwhal tusk on my head!

Being flightless, you never want to test a penguin’s fight or flight reflex

That headline was a wild ride, I really did not expect to ever read any of those words in that order

All these years later, and her character is one of my least liked. The actress’s portayal was so good, it still makes me irrationally angry to this day. I can feel the condescension in this image

It’s hilarious that people think I’m some kind of problem solver for all of their random issues they send over. I’ve even told them when they send me their errors - I literally copy and paste it into google (and now bing b/c google is becoming cluttered with garbage). Some of them just can’t wrap their head around just googling the error code or error string.

Maybe the one thing we can do is filter out the irrelevant answers, and choose the correct/closest solution, that way they don’t have to wade into the mess

I’m defintely not 3 ducks in a trench coat

I’ve got a plastic version, but if I need to shred a block it hurts my hands after a while, because of how light it is.

I bought one of these to solve that problem (this also has a finer cylinder for a thinner grate):

If I ever need more than a pound, I can probably use the disc on my food processor, although the last time I tried, I didn’t freeze my cheese prior, and ended up with a lot of smeared cheese on the disc 😬

I too am interested in responses/opinions regarding the Sigma sport. I’ve been keeping an eye on both:

Sigma 150-600mm 5-6.3 Contemporary
Tamron SP 150-600mm F/ 5-6.3

As Spring is starting up I’d like to get back outside, and annoy my local neighbourhood cardinals 😁

Have you heard of this awesome new gameshow - Baby Billy’s Bibile Bonkers

There’s the R360 Neptune which was originally a Soviet era anti-ship missle. Ukraine has since turned it into a land attack weapon. At this point I’m fairly confident Ukrainians could find a way to weaponize a rotten tomato if they had a large enough stockpile

I don’t know what this pup is about to say, but I’m all ears

…should we…should we, give him an award for stopping familars before they can do their masters’ bidding? I mean, that’s really how the vampires maintain control over Hollywood and the banking system

It’s because the Earth isn’t ready for the Captain (youtube link)

I am not amused, identity theft is a crime Susan! 😂
