Tres comas, indeed.

End stage Fry’s was so weird it could have been a Terry Gilliam movie or something. Vast expanses of mostly empty aisles with the few bits of leftover inventory still there, but interspersed with filled-up cages of AliExpress junk at 10x the AE price or 3x the “get it tomorrow” Amazon price. Then there would be one or two areas where the vendors had gone along with their cockamamie “we’ll sell your shit on consignment!” scam, and a few sad employees trying to avoid making eye contact.

Yet Microcenter endures.

Lol, they did a few more, but while fun, nothing comes close to giant magic kaiju polar bear specifically murderizing its rivals before using its F16 to destroy the entire Earth, Scientology style, then body surfing the resulting F16-destroying explosion at warp speed to make it to its asteroid-based hockey arena on time, but making sure to blow up the hockey goal as well.

Tangentially, that cereal is super good, sweeter than you’d think but not cloying, although TBH I’m not turning away garbage kids cereals either.

The world is a complicated place.

I know, right?

Sodium Laureth Sulfate.

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate.

Laureth. Lauryl. Laureth. Lauryl.

What? Is? The DEAL?

Who dood?

Indeed ideed.

Shitpost ideed.

Pretty sure it’s just that thread that’s locked.

I know we’re not supposed to make references to movies that are insufficiently cool, but this is clearly one of Goose’s babies, right?

Trucker arm seems to be a thing worldwide.

Why do you think I still live in Texas?

Judge for yourself.

!fuckcars@lemmy.world is getting a bit intense…

I actually kind of like that Apple has become a boring and iterative company for the most part. I just use the same glass and metal rectangle until a few months after my upgrade eligibility on my work plan (because I always forget when it is), then I get whichever glass and metal rectangle is cheap now. I routinely forget which iPhone I use, and my life is no worse because of it.

Okay, I just looked it up. It’s a 13, and I did remember, but I was not at all confident.

When you had some hella good shareware to download, it was always such a letdown to hear the scratchy line downshift to a lower speed trying to find a stable connection.

At my kid’s elementary school, they just have a charging rack full of cheap Chromebooks and the kids check one out in the morning and put it back in the afternoon. The middle schoolers get to take them home.

This. For soft crumb American sandwich sliced bread, you want as little air circulation as possible, balanced only by not crushing the loaf. A bread box is a quaint place to toss the bread once you squish the air out, but without the bag it’s basically the same as the chaotic evil option.
