    Yeah. But not on the bed.

    Except some times on a lazy Saturday morning and they’re being annoying because they know it’s normally breakfast time now, but letting them up on the bed is a super special thing to take their mind off it. But they know it’s not a “You just get to do this whenever you want” kind of deal now, it’s invite only still. And they can’t take up all the room or start to clean themselves, shaking the mattress while the humans are trying to sleep in.

    Farts are an instant kicking off too.




  • Scale goes without saying; but now I’m trying to imagine what it’d actually be like. I’d guess the tac would take out most medium-sized towns. The heads of them could quickly fill a California-sized area.

    Then you connect them with string and it’s just huge mass of fibre across the sky, 50km wide.




  • Never washed the ball. I did clean out the runners inside though. They hid away dead skin grime and pet fur better than any keyboard ever will.

    Edit: I give my work keyboard a tip and tap once a week or so and have been asked why I do it. I explained it’s basically a hygeine thing, explaining why, and was told it’s disgusting. Encouraged colleagues to do it and they were mortified with the mess left on their desks. It was like they just dealt with the consequences of opening up their car engine after neglecting to oil change for 150,000 miles.

    WHO’S DISGUSTING NOW???

    They can try take the high road, but I’ve seen how many icons are on their desktops, so I basically know how messy their bedroom floor is.

    Uh… Take away the ironic “men’s rights” part and you are your dad. Unless you’re actively ensuring your feeds are not algorithm content and the parts of the internet you’re hanging out in aren’t socially reinforcing…

    Otherwise, we call these “echo chambers”. And funny enough is that those in them create the most “me vs them” content, all the while constantly reassuring “the audienice” that they’re not in one.

    But, yeah. I’m sure I’m wrong and helping your dad to navigate through the ongoing onslaught of media is something you’ve tried.

    Edit: GOD DAMN I’m so self- righteous and sassy tonight. Ignore the sass. Get the vibe. A apologise for the sass, but I won’t delete because the vibe.

    Point is, you and your dad have two opposing feeds. Recognise that they are feeds and move on from that.

    Sometimes I still start typing, but just to realise a few words in that it’s entirely pointless. But usually I don’t bother blocking.

    My block list isn’t very big (14 if you exclude NSFW accounts), so if you’re on it, you’re something of a special level of toxic.

    One of me team members always says, “Hey, I need a word with you about something later.”

    And for like an hour, I’m freaking… “This is it. He’s found another job. He’s moving town. He’s headed back to his home country… Ah, shit.”

    Then we meet up, “So, I might need Friday off because my parents are landing at 10am.”

    “What? Yes! Yes, of course! Oh my god.”

    Fucker gets me everytime and doesn’t know he’s doing it.


  • Let’s say that you’ve just significantly upgraded your GPU. If you were getting the most out of your CPU with your previous GPU, there’s a good chance that your new GPU will be held back by that older component. So now, you need a new CPU or some percentage of your new GPU’s performance is wasted. Except, getting a new CPU that’s worth the upgrade usually means getting a new motherboard, which might also require new RAM, and so on.

    This guy’s friends should keep him away from computers and just give him an iPad to play with.

    I envy people that can sleep like that. According to my watch, I managed just shy of a combined 90mins of sleep on a 16h flight and I was trying to sleep for most of it. This after I knew I’d struggle so sleep starved myself to four hours of sleep the night before 🫤

    Meanwhile my friend successfully opted to nap in the car while I did a quick grocery shop…

    If I’m not lateral, it ain’t happening. I’m open to any tips, but I’ve probably tried them all besides dosing.
