Pretty sure this is the original unglamorous premise of Severance before it got hopped up by the what ifs from the producers.

Here's an easier one:

Agreed with both of you.

That's the classic "milkshake" color and is definitely from coolant.

Won't someone think of the shareholders?!

That skunk will be back around for cat food.

We had a juvenile come in through the patio door we had cracked for the cat. Dogs chased it under the stove. Took hours for it to let its guard down and leave following a trail of cat food.

It has been back several times over the last couple years. Only been back in the house 2x that I know of (the 20 year old cat demands the open door or she howls all night). We have a "skunk gate" on our patio now (it's just plywood that runs between 2 rails on the steps).

King of kings: the early years

A mediocre set of platformers interspersed with bible trivia. I played the crap out of them because it was the only thing other that super Mario we had.

Later we got Joshua and the battle of Jericho. A bomberman clone.

Kids are dumb. "Moolania" was right there!

Google will ignore this if you use their built in search, but it works everywhere else.

Should be available OOTB as of 26.04 ... At least with kde!

 

I finally gave up my Nvidia 2070 Super and rejoined Team red with a 9070 XT. And it's like this is the way everything was always meant to be.

HDR works without breaking font rendering. Sleep states just work. No more random border flickering in fullscreen or borderless windows. And the fans never even spin up.

I did have to unwind a couple Nvidia workarounds to swap over successfully (like /etc/environment needed cleaning up for sddm-greeter-qt to not core dump).

No ragrets.

No regerts.

Team red 4lyfe (again).

 

I took the toaster apart and cleaned the contacts for the lever that signal the hold down while toasting. Now we don't have to stand there and hold it (that was 3 morning routines slightly out of order).

I had to buy a set of special bits because someone decided they needed to use security torx bolts in the corners hidden under the feet. This was of course in addition to the 14 regular old #2 Phillips screws. But it's always nice to have a reason to get new tools.

In other news, the clean signal started flashing on on the espresso machine today, so I have another little project for tomorrow too.

 

I don't really have anyone else to shout at about this, but it's an amazing way to host services in rootless containers entirely in user space using systemd (systemctl --user).

I applied some paste wax to the table saw and was pleasantly surprised that it made a difference.

I think I'll have to use this on the wood runners on the old dresser I have too.

In case you're concerned, it's just a little DeWalt contractor's table saw. No sawstop or powermatic here. That's for the cool guys on youtube.
