Learned skill. I spend a lot of time drunk and Android tends to do a pretty good job of guessing what I'm swiping.

I also tend to reread what I wrote when I'm drunk. I actually generally do a worse job sober because I won't double check my work.

And it was signage displays for the dumb TVs I was thinking of, and Sharp TVs used to have unsecured wireless networks that you couldn't really turn off, so they'd make a mesh with other smart TVs. I believe I've heard the same thing about Samsung as well.

Now it's time to go jog myself sick.

Sceptre is cheapo stuff. And at least one brand of smart TV is wardriving to find networks behind your back (again, drunk, I can't remember which right now) and creating mesh networks with other TVs of the same type.

Sceptre has some dumb TVs. You can also still get the display TVs that companies use. I'm drunk so I forget what they're called.

I like the fact that someone hates the idea of saying things for fun so much they had to downvote you for pointing it out. They're just out here with scholarly citations for every single thing they've ever said and didn't reply because they couldn't immediately cite a paper with a counter argument.

That's super interesting! And the point of my comment was actually to find out interesting things so yeah, your reply was totally in the spirit of things.

I've thought about getting an air fryer just for this. I usually use the oven or toss it in a pan.

If I'm having leftover pizza for lunch while smoking a brisket or ribs I'll toss a couple of slices on the smoker on an uncoated paper plate. That's actually my preferred method but I refuse to crank up a smoker for leftover pizza.

When do the generals start plotting an assassination? I'm not calling for one, I'm just wondering where that is on the timeline.

people struggle with the concept of federation and picking a server

This is a HUGE reason. I didn't know when I first signed up for Lemmy that I was on what is essentially a tankie instance. I didn't know when I signed up for Pixelfed that I wasn't going to be able to see shit because the first server I signed up for wasn't really federated with anyone and I've mostly given up on it. I still can't see a bunch of stuff on Mastodon without switching through several accounts with no rhyme or reason.

I've said before that I obviously like it here because I'm using the services, but it's not easy. Most people don't know about the fediverse, and most of those that do want to be passive about maintaining their social media. Most of the fediverse is built for nerds.

Mine is the chain style. I cannot compare as I have never used the braided wire and I don't have to think about weight savings that much. I don't generally hike far to a camping spot.

Instead of a curved folding saw I prefer a rope saw. I've always been able to take down limbs and trees faster.

For those that don't know what that is, imagine a chainsaw chain with handles on either end.

It's ok, friend. I like that your mere presence refutes your own argument and that your attitude shows the kind of things you generally get banned from instances for.

So how old is your account? A day? You sure showed me! You're doing great, buddy!
