Jim Bob the bridge builder
Beats being named Jim Bob the goat fucker
Gotta remember to bring the name binder though :P
...this is why I leave the DMing to my friend
Naw, if I'm going to have a DVD jukebox, it's gonna be as bootleg as it gets. Converting AVIs to whatever the fuck format DVD players understand was a pain in the ass then, I'm sure converting MKVs backwards to the same format is still equally annoying, but it's the principle of the thing.
"They aren't attached enough to the horses to have chosen names for them, they are referred to by their coat colour."
"What colours are they?"
"...fuck."
Look at you, planning in advance
Re-thinking it, I think that would be kinda cool.
It's not far off from people who own jukeboxes
Burning all the DVDs would be a pain in the ass, but I do have most of a spindle that I haven't touched since...2013?
That's called Jellyfin
Historically, 'garbage' was specifically food waste, what we now would call 'kitchen scraps' or 'compost' if you live somewhere with a municipal composting program, or compost yourself. (Historically, 'compost' generally referred to the finished compost, rather than also the waste going in.) 'Trash' was other non-compostable refuse.
TL;DR Trash goes to the dump, garbage goes to the pig pen or compost bin
But what more, short of killing every cop, are you suggesting be done?
Seems you understand what needs to be done
I've found a couple plugs "upgraded" to 3-prong by jumping the load and ground together. That made for a fun firework show when my metal fan touched something metal. Even the landlord was impressed by that stupidity.
Ah, the good old reverse polarity bootleg ground.
Fun fact: RPBG is the one fault that those plug-in outlet testers can't recognize
Edit: Wait, no, that would be hot bootleg ground, they should catch that. RPBG has the hot and neutral switched, and also a bootleg ground to the neutral that's actually hot
Reminds me of a story about magic
I doubted the blow, but it could be true; turns out the Columbian Exchange started around 50 years before the Church of England broke from Catholicism
I'm partial to After Obama Victory, Shrieking White-Hot Sphere Of Pure Rage Early GOP Front-Runner For 2016, though admittedly it's a video, not an article
Then just don't answer?
With the people who tend to call out of the blue, not answering tends to result in repeated calls, and then when I finally have a chance to call back, usually it should have just been a text.
If the conversation is best had via an actual call, text me and we'll schedule a call. We'll schedule it soon, like "call you in ten minutes" soon, but it's just easier with a little heads up.
If you are calling me without any kind of notice during working hours, somebody better be in the hospital or morgue; if you're calling me without any notice outside of working hours, alcohol better be involved
Question for paramedics
If I'm injured and need a blood transfusion, where are paramedics most likely to go for the needle; is it the vein in my arm, same as for blood donation?
Wherever it is, if I get a tattoo noting my blood type, are you going to trust the tattoo and give me my blood type, or would you disregard it and go with O- just in case?
I'm getting some tattoo work done anyways, and I really like the idea of a Canadian Blood Services logo plus my blood type wherever paramedics would see it, but it's pointless if they won't believe it
[Request] Long press on links to open them externally
When reading a web page within Connect, it would be nice if long-pressing on links in the webpage would give a popup with the option to open the link in an external browser (and probably also an option to just copy the link). I frequently find myself linked to Wikipedia from a Lemmy comment, and then want to open other links from that wiki page, so then I have to open the page I'm on externally and refind my spot in the article.
Having the same options when long-pressing a link in a comment/post would be nice as well.
[Request] Seperate block lists for seperate accounts
Edit: there's already a setting for it, another user pointed it out. Ignore me :)
Currently, when you block an instance or community, it's blocked app-wide. I had blocked various NSFW communities and instances on my main account so that they don't show up in my All feed, but now I can't access them from my NSFW account unless I use a different app to do so, or repeatedly unblock and reblock them as needed.
Can we instead make block lists on a per-account basis (or have the option of account-associated or global blocking)?
How can I change the text colour in my comment box?
The text when I try to type comments (but not the text in the search bar or, as I'm just now learning, here in the 'post body' text box) is white, and I can't find the setting to change it. Obviously I could change my background back to the default blue that it was, but that's the opposite of a solution.
Anybody know?
