I find the unbalanced microfuge triggering.

I found these instructions on how to install KoReader and use Wallabag. It looks like a real pain in the ass. I hope Rakuten does something, because I’m not doing that unless I absolutely have to.

Thanks, I’ll check it out.

My Kobo has the Pocket app and I’ll miss being able to send articles to it. Apparently I’ll be one of the few to be sad to see Pocket go.

Fuck Tapper and fuck Stewart. Trump can’t tell a reporter what the Declaration of Independence means, but we’re still stuck on the fact that a man who dedicated his life to public service dared to get old.

I am the son of MAGA parents. They were never overtly racist. They were always kind to my non-white friends and their non-white neighbors, always thinking that they were “one of the good ones”. But since Trump has validated their latent racism, it has become more ugly. I think that’s more insidious and dangerous than empowering the lunatic fringe, honestly.

An oldie but a goodie! Here’s a better image without the artist’s credit cropped out: https://i.redd.it/a3si3b0brn211.jpg

On edit: I didn’t realize the punchline was edited. The artist still deserves credit, though.

“You will pay dearly for foisting this indignity upon me. Oh yes. Quite dearly.”

Trump wanting to change the name of Veteran’s Day to Victory Day makes more sense to me now.

Congrats. Enjoy the root beer.

I’m reading Neuromancer in anticipation of the Apple TV series. I’m impressed with Gibson’s writing. It’s quite a stylistic change from the last book I read (Handling the Undead by John Ajvide Lindvquist).

Admittedly, I don’t know much about modern speedboats, but the full flip probably saved their lives. In the old days, flipping onto your head at damn near 200 mph was certain death.

It happened to me today. “We want your feedback on Outlook predictive text!”. Well, it couldn’t predict that I wanted it to fuck off, could it?

Yep. Egg + sriracha for me.

I looked for the link to The Onion. I think I audibly sighed when I didn’t find it.

It’s backpedaling the likes of which has never been seen before.

My favorite was a little one with interchangeable blocks for 0.2 mL and 0.5 mL tubes. A student broke the latch, and I still used it for years with a daisy chain of four zip ties holding the lid closed during runs.

“STAAAHP!”

No, it was just an observation about the backyard chickens I used to have. I have no idea if my chickens couldn’t eat mushrooms or if they just didn’t care for them.

You know, I was convinced that my chickens would eat any leftovers from the fridge that were about to go bad, but the one thing that they wouldn’t touch was mushrooms. I didn’t realize that the reason for that went all the way back to the extinction event that killed the dinosaurs.
