shit happened
  • Funny.. I just randomly thought about this pictures existence a few days ago and it shows up here, thanks for that. I'm going to go wash my eyes out now.

  • Please allow VPNs
  • Weird. I just connected to a german one (DE#394) and that one works, for me anyway..

  • Please allow VPNs
  • I'm on Proton (US server IL#263 atm but regularly use others) and haven't had any problems.

  • Logitech Now Goes To A random website in order to add peripherals to a PC
  • I gave up on Logitech after buying a Logitech "Harmony" universal remote years ago. Normally you just have to toss a code or two into a universal remote to get it to work with your device, but I guess that would have been too easy for them.

    Instead, you have to download their terrible app, create an account, connect the remote via usb, and give logitech all the details about every device you own that you'd like to use it for. Want to change a single detail? Gotta plug the remote back into the pc, launch the app, sign in, and wait until your firstborn goes to college while it apparently connects to the last working Commodore 64 hidden somewhere in the Amazon rainforest.

    I should not need to report to some corporation every time I want to change the slightest thing on the remote I paid good money for.

  • What is your gaming "comfort food" and why?
  • Have you tried Portal Reloaded yet? It's pretty good as well and as of the June 2023 "Cooperative Update" adds 20 new levels. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal_Reloaded

  • Time lapse camera app for hands-off watching my house? (Assessing roof for solar panels)
  • I've used "Lapse it Pro" on one of my older phones and it worked well, but I can't say anything about the free version tho, and there's probably something better by now considering that app is pretty old already.

    Another option if you can't find a good time lapse app is to set up the phone as an ip webcam and use something like Ispy (Camera security app) on a wifi connected pc to save a snapshot every hour (or whatever you set it to do, it has timelapse functionality, as well as motion sense.)

  • Stoney Cartoons
  • "Final Space" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Space ),

    "Disenchantment" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disenchantment_(TV_series) ),

    "Star Trek: Lower Decks" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Trek:_Lower_Decks )

    or if you're into science stuff "Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey" Produced by Seth Mcfarlane with Niel Degrasee Tyson https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos:_A_Spacetime_Odyssey (Not really a cartoon, but it's still a good watch.)

  • TIL The proposed Helsinki-Tallinn Railway Tunnel, when completed, will be the largest underground tunnel in the world. It will help to reduce time to cross the current Gulf of Finland route from tw...
  • The 100km tunnel "is expected to reduce the journey time from two hours to 20 minutes."

    20 minutes for 100km(60 miles)? That's moving pretty quick.

  • 100, here I cum
  • Waaay ahead of you there, partner!

  • **Cemetery DNA links enslaved people at hellish forge to living descendants.** Should they be contacted?
  • I know I'd want to know about my families history, their experiences, their hardships. I think they'd want to be remembered too for what they sacrificed and had to deal with.

  • Resources for Live TV
  • If jellyfish can do m3u playlists, you'd just need to grab a playlist off something like https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv#playlists or https://matthewgall.codes/mirrors/iptv/src/branch/master/streams

  • James Webb Space Telescope spies giant cosmic question mark in deep space (photo)
  • If that's the tutorial quest I don't think I want to see the final boss.

  • I must know
  • It's for a one-armed guy? This leaves me with a better mental image.

  • Problem, Hydrogen?
  • A Memary or a Mematorium.

  • Resources for Live TV
  • https://dev-iptv.web.app/US/

    There's 2400 channels there, but it's kind of hit and miss... some aren't broadcasting or are geo-blocked etc but there's still a lot of ok ones to go through.

  • Hot Take: Flat Earthers should be banished to orbit.
  • I feel that way about most deniers/conspiracy theorists/religious nuts etc but we're always going to have them.

    I wouldn't be sad if these flat earthers went to find this supposed edge of the world and jumped off though. We have enough problems here on "God's dinner plate flying through space."

  • SLPT Car nearly out of gas? Drive as fast as you can so that you'll coast further if you do run out.
