I love Jack Russell Terriers. I love all of the dogs. Dog is love.
I pulled my sciatic nerve again. It's quite literally a pain in the arse. Fucking #Monday
What could go wrong?
(trouvé sur l'oiseau)
Biting into a raw garlic clove to aid in peeling it seemed like a perfectly reasonable course of action about 15 seconds ago
I just recieved the good news that I have no work until Monday. I celebrated by purchasing a game for the killing of things and the zoning out. I then ceased celebrating upon the crushing realisation that in order to play the game I need to download 80gb on an ADSL connection.
Despite years of experience and extensive research, I am always surprised to rediscover that yes, you can eat too much nachos. On a similar note, regardless of what you may think prior to preparing nachos, yes, it is possible to add too much cheese.
Master Po: If a man dwells on the past, then he robs the present. But if a man ignores the past, he may rob the future. The seeds of our destiny are nurtured by the roots of our past.
In regards to cleaning computer components with compressed inert gas, is there any real difference between the $5 stuff you can get in Kmart and the $20 stuff you get in a specialist store?
I wanted to clean something and decided I needed isopropyl alcohol immediately. Three hours later I returned home, having driven to 3 suburbs, eaten 4 ice cream sandwiches, called my mother and purchased ingredients for making nachos. I still have no isopropyl alcohol. Wtf happened? It seemed like such an achievable goal.
Nevermind. Found out the answer. CANNOT just remove the overheating part and still have a functional device.
So, suggestions for a good ARM board? #beagleboard ? pine? what's a good #open #arm board these days?
So it turns out that on my phone, switching from mobile network to home wifi without reconnecting VPN still ends up using mobile network. I just found this out the hard way with a torrent and a friendly message from Telstra informing me that they just charged me $10. God damnit.
#andanotherthing how exactly does one 'smash' avocado? What kind of utensil does someone use to 'smash' it? Do they hit it with a saucepan? I 'spread' avocado on toast. I 'cut' avocado for a salad. The only time I've ever 'smashed' avocado is when making guacamole.... And that's NOT 'smashed avocado'... That's guacamole. Whatever this fancy avocado smashing device is, it must be bloody expensive.... Cause $16 for avocado on toast is just taking the piss.
If I had any ham I'd make ham and eggs if I had any eggs
Capitalism makes sure all deed are done with maximum misery. Sell as high as possible. Buy as low as possible. Haggle until you tire. Work until you can no more. Those are the affordances of the system. To enjoy yourself and the time you’re given on this earth needs resistance. You need to resist. You need to resist the temptation to exploit yourself and your fellow humans. Resist and enjoy what little time you have left.
I'm watching Star Trek Enterprise right now and my main observation so far is that at some time in the next few hundred years we, as a species, apparently go back to using 4:3 aspect ratio for our monitors.
The little dog has been up in my face for an hour wanting her dinner. Pawing at me, getting REALLY close, licking my face... I couldn't get anything done. So I gave her dinner. She is now making me aware of her satisfaction by sitting between me and the tv, on top of my keyboard, burping at me and licking her lips. How am I supposed to do anything under these conditions? I think she wants me to scratch her arse now. What am I some kind of servant? Where's my mum? I have needs too you know
Step one complete. Now I need to buy an soic test clip, new ram, wifi card, an SSD, and a new CPU fan (the one in there rattles, it grates on my brain like sandpaper. If I don't fix it, I'll end up like that guy in Texas who shot his pc and the bullet went into the neighbouring apartment and the cops came then I'll get chased down the street by a current affair and I'll never have a chance with the hot neighbours. Total shitshow. Priority replacement). Additionally, Jaycar is shit. Jus' sayin'.
Is 'unconfiguration' even a word?
