I’ll have the brussels sprouts appetizer.
Pretty sure the internet would collapse in a matter of hours.

I hope everyone reading this knows that you can just not connect a “Smart” TV to the internet. Leave it as a “dumb” TV.
Get a separate device like a Roku or AppleTV or Amazon Fire or whatever. The garbage hardware that TV manufacturers slap inside a TV so they can advertise its “smart” features will always be inferior to a purpose built external device.
To say nothing of the security implications of having an unpatched probably unsupported IoT device running on your network for years.
Ever notice that this movie is basically the same story as The Three Amigos?
Ha! Came here to say this. Ya beat me to it.
Pretty much anything by Electric Six or Clutch. Honorable mentions to Soul Coughing and VNV Nation.
Karma chameleon, you come and go ⋅ Karma police, arrest this ho. ⋅ Karma’s a bitch, it gets a little jumpy when you come near.
– Electric Six, (It Gets a Little) Jumpy
Like Harry Truman dropping bombs out of the air ⋅ Like any self-respecting multi-billionaire ⋅ This is who you are, five dancing teenage boys ⋅ Who sing their way into our hearts ⋅ Backstreet’s back, alright
– Electric Six, Jimmy Carter
Next thing that I did was tap out Morse code ⋅ With a wooden nickel on the receiver of the phone ⋅ Before I could complete it, I was quickly overtaken ⋅ By the angry spirits of Ronald and Nancy Reagan
– Clutch, X-Ray Visions
ah, damn. thanks for the info!
And because I drink coffee and I’m a total klutz…
Just a word of advice about any/all non-cast-iron pans… never take a hot pan and run it under water. It may create a very satisfying blacksmith blast of steam effect, but it almost invariably results in the bottom of the pan warping to be not-quite-flat.
Things I have done with my Pi(s) –
Hell yes. My Brother printer is just a solid workhorse.
TSA Pre-check.
Yes, it’s fucking obnoxious that it exists at all, given the “security theater” of it all, but man… being able to breeze past the super long lines at the airport is such a better experience.
yes.
as a long time former smoker, I managed to kick the habit, and it makes me sad when my friends haven’t been able to do the same.
Might I suggest a “single column” version as well, for the folks on mobile devices? 😁
Kbin is sorta like an alternate Lemmy client.
A bad comparison would be like Hotmail vs gmail. Both are email, but slightly different interfaces.
Absolutely this. They’re not competing. They’re not the same thing. It’s like asking when texting will beat gmail.
One is a private for profit enterprise. The other is an open standard with lots of entities using that standard.

Anyone can make a community. Just be aware that when you do, you are the default mod.
To be honest I’m still skeptical of the Fediverse as a long term endeavor, but I’m going to give it a fair shake in the meantime.
That said, I was never much of a heavy user of twitter or reddit anyway, so watching the Fediverse explode while various corporate entities implode is just popcorn entertainment.
Pretty much anything by Yuval Noah Harari: Sapiens, Homo-Deus, and 21 Lessons for the 21st Century
Taken as a trilogy of sorts, they manage to do a great job of explaining how humanity got to where we are now, and assuming current trends continue, where we’re headed in the future. All without being super dense and academic.
Just came here to say that this also affects any applications that use the libwebp library.
That includes many apps that most people don’t think of as “browsers”.
Electron based applications all use chromium under the hood, and are quite common/prolific these days.

Expect updates to a lot of things in the near future.
