Looks more likely to be a sticker or fridge magnet that they slapped on a project enclosure. This one looks to be almost identical, and it seems like they used their headsets for a virtual wind tunnel and for navigating Antarctic submersibles.

I’m not sure that ignoring them to listen on an iPod is any better.

That is one hell of a Petrova line.

Who threw them and when? If it was an angry little half-Indian girl circa 1989, my wife is going to be deeply satisfied.

Yeah, most of their stuff has a 3D printed element. This is some cheeky marketing for a small company that, to my knowledge, has always done right by the maker community. I don’t think this particular one has a public repository yet, but pretty much everything else does.

It’s almost certainly a PCB, firmware, and case for a ThinkPad style pointing module. The ergonomics come from the freedom to put it down where you like or integrate it into an ergo-split keyboard. Ploopy is very good about open-sourcing the CAD, firmware, and BOM for their stuff.

Ooof. The “comic” is a drugstore greeting card that’s less saccharine but equally banal. The real shitpost is making me see both.

After 65 years, you still call Grandma darling, beautiful and honey – what’s the secret?

I forgot her name 5 years ago and I’m too scared to ask her what it is!

The “ship in a bottle” school of architecture

Why does that doctor have a mullet?

1. The New Madrid fault is a slow beast, but not to be taken lightly. There are large lakes in that region that exist solely because of earthquakes changing the path of the Mississippi River.
2. I once drove through Cooter, Missouri on my way to a wedding in northwest Tennessee specifically to send my wife a cheeky postcard, and those motherfuckers didn’t postmark it until they’d carted it over to the next town with a larger post office. My disappointment was immeasurable and my day was ruined.

Nope, but I did grow up around people who would hear that in a meeting and then absolutely want to use their new linguistic toy every chance they got, despite not at all analyzing even the half-layer deep that would be required to understand what using it implies about who you think you are (or your boss is).

You forgot the additional $3000 and five years to do enough projects to gain the skills to make a table your loved ones will allow in the house. 🤣

Even moreso this time:

Batra, who has spent nearly half her life working in immigration courts, stopped working for the government’s side in immigration proceedings—instead helping only the immigrants seeking status—after seeing the conditions in detention facilities and how detained people were treated.

Having attended several red state universities, I chose to take it as a statement that alongside the ubiquitous plaza preachers, who are never affiliated with the school and are generally no one’s favorite campus characters, there’s also plenty of standard college silliness and shenanigans. Apart from the big blue cities, the college towns of the south are generally the most educated and forward thinking enclaves of their red states, hence the huge pressure campaigns from their governors to being the schools themselves to heel.

In addition to FecEx and Dominos, there’s other restaurants, Amazon, UPS, newer Chinese-owned final-mile carriers, Uber including Eats/Pets/Courier/etc., Lyft, Doordash, medical couriers, legal couriers, etc. etc. It’s tougher outside the cities, and it’s all kind of a neo-Victorian dystopia of poor wages and no support, but if what’s you actually want to do, “driving places cuz other people can’t or won’t” is a very doable job-description in the US. Just make sure you’re factoring in car expenses if you do the gig-based ones.

Well, spam, egg, sausage, and spam – that’s not got much spam in it.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Wednesday that Iran’s 10-point proposal was “literally thrown in the garbage by President Trump.” Trump initially called a plan from Iran “workable.”

Even for their own awful sakes’, they need to take grampa’s socials away.

It hasn’t been plugged in for the better part of a decade, back when we had a house with a floor lamp plug right by it, but it theoretically has a mini fridge, charging, and a Bluetooth speaker. In use, it has one very big drawer to go with two normal drawers.
