Its very hard to find anything in the lower 48 and Canada (Your right, Mexico has a lot more preserved sites) that are older that 400 years old. I was recently out in southern Utah and there are petroglyphs around Moab, some depicting horses which dates them to no earlier than the mid-1600s. Others are believed to be significantly older.

Meaning Ive seen something in the US that is older than your mum. /s

Outside: Baseball cap

Indoors: Wizard hat

We should bring back tricorns, I just think they are neat.

Arn’t we all time travlers? Just sitting in the right lane of spacetime with the cruise control on?

Exactly, I told my sibilings that when they went off to college.

You can always call me, I will drive to the ends of the earth to pick you up, I wont tell the folks if you dont want me to. You do, however, have to be able to tell the person scraping your sorry ass off the pavement exactly what you broke. (And dont do anything where you wouldent be able to tell them either)

Dont break the weekend rules

• Do NOT add to the population
• Do NOT subtract from the population
• Do not ever do anything that will have you end up in the newspaper, hospital or jail.
• • If you do end up in jail, establish dominance quickly.

Also dont do anything you would be afraid to explain to the paramedics.

If the camera is that important, then look for a phone where the camera is the primary feature. Samsung has some nice ones these days, Fairphones offerings are generally average across the industry, many claim they are over priced, but that is due to their picky component/vendor selection (See their attempts at ethicaly sourced parts).

I ordered a Fairphone 4 and had it shipped over to the US before they officially supported US carriers and got their reseller state side to fix some minor issues.

And its also cute I get to play the “Organic” card for a piece a tech. The device itself is good enough and with the repairability focus I can take my battery out as a party trick. (I have seriously done this, it works best for Iphone people)

I would love that, I dont think the movie is terrible, its just that everything after Ford and Arthur get thrown out the airlock isnt as funny or absurd as the books. The main issue is the first 2ish books are unadaptable because there is no central conflict (or arleast the main cast dosent care or know there was supposed to be one).

Zaphod is the only person with motivation to do anything other than to continue existing, and he is unaware (or dosen’t care) he is being hunted until they meet those suprisingly progessive law enforcment officers on Magrathea and when he visits the guides publishing offices.

+1 for “The Good Place” bit

I play EvE online and have done the whole player/corp/guild managment thing and we had a phrase.

“The game has 4 currencies Time, Money, Content and Trust. You can buy 3 of them”

In your context, times currency is a represention of existing. If you choose to spend it wisely is up to you. And we’re out here shooting the shit on Lemmy… so… Yah…

How many of yall read this entire thread and were disapointed or glad you didnt find your own name.

Lever on the side usually, internals for residential and commercial comodes are very different. Most arn’t super water efficent, but maintenance can be done by just about anyone. (American here, Euro style toilets are just better)

Alpha Centauri is actually 13.6 feet from me, Ive got an old sid meyrs disk somehwere in the box of old tech stuff. Great game, used the same engine as Civ 2, think its on GOG these days.

Its healthier not to have them. Also there is a technical limitation in that points are logged by the instance you post on, your profile could keep a rough tally, but thats yet another cross instance data stream that would need to be synced. Seeing how most lemmy instances are pretty small or managed by hobbiests, thats fine, less for them to worry about.

Also if you post because you have something to say over wanting internet points, people will read your words differently.

There is a pickle rick joke to be made in there somewhere…

Beer!

My head-cannon from the lawyers going something like this.

“Thank you Mr. Musk for the lawsuit, we had a lot of fun reading it. Especially the parts you drew (I liked the blue dinosauar). Before we begin, we would like to let you know the legal fees for this case are coming directly from the portion of the advertising budget we allocated to the website formerly known as Twitter”

Probably more entertaining than the actual cases.

Its an old meme sir, but it checks out.

Dito, fixing interesting problems is fun. My main issue is that we have had a caroucel of bosses (4 in the last 4 years) and the current one gets a C-. Half the team does not trust them due to drama with the previous manager and the they keep trying to make it so the different team members specialize in different tasks (everyone used to be trained to do everything). I like the job and the company, but its one or two step removed from “Office Space” levels of corpo whohash.
