  • I learned about an expensive headset brand today. Their website was fun, their product is exactly what I want, and they have a 5-year warranty. The headsets come with spare ear pads. Never heard about them before today. I somehow trust they’re worth the price.

    (Still ended up just buying new foam pads for my current $30 headset, but I was tempted.)

    I’m in a disabilities chat group and we’re often surprised when we’re reminded that “0” is the “normal” level of pain you’re “supposed to have” day to day. Everyone’s baseline is different. Pain sucks. (Unsolicited fact: my back pain got much better after I started physical therapy for it. I’m glad my health insurance covered it. Next round of PT: my knees. Why they be like that? [it’s probably the EDS])



  • From a “giving tech support” POV, nano is the best editor. Have you ever tried walking a non-techie through editing a config file on the command line, over the phone, no screen share? Nano is your friend. (I swear, this very expensive software I used to support got its sysadmins by picking whoever was absent the day the the client site figured out someone had to do it.)

    other hair may also be licked—my dog is really into beards and eyebrows. He also tries to get into ear canals. For him, though, you just need to wash off the tasty, tasty face oils. Then he gives a single lick and walks off in disappointment.



  • That’s for the best.

    (I’ll describe it in case you’re serious:

    spoiler

    You know those Asian squat toilets, a fancy hole in the floor? First shot is of one of those with a toilet seat suspended over it like a swing. Second shot is outside the stall, angled along the stalls. We see the feet of someone swinging out of the stall, like they’re enjoying the toilet swing. A brown turd-shaped object rolls out from under the stall door. A hand with holding toilet paper reaches out and picks up the turd, pulling it back into the stall.

    )

    Shared with my Linux friend that is learning Spanish to better communicate with the almost-in-laws. They were amused.

    update: so was their Windows boyfriend, who helped them with the “bless Gabe Newell” line.
