I feel like this works on multiple fronts.

  1. It gives off big tough guy targeted shirt energy that's bound to give them a rush beyond what a white Monster can offer and will surely impress the waitress at Chili's.

Example of the targeted shirts I'm talking about:

  1. It hits people with the anger than immediately follows up with the confusion. "Shouldn't the mom be riding them?" "Is this implying my mom is into pegging?"
  2. Harley Davidson is the Supreme of middle aged dads and they'll buy whatever has their logo.

I've played a fair amount of Rising Storm 2: Vietnam and had a fair amount of fun with it. I liked the jungle combat that added some stealth elements and weapons that were present.

To be clear I don't mean to sound insensitive. I know about the Vietnam war and how distasteful a hero shooters around it could be.

Maybe there could be a whole line of bee theft protection gear. Imagine a subwoofer that plays a low buzzing sound or fake hives for the passenger seat.

Need something uncomfortably sticky in a hurry? Try the stickinator.

The plan is to replace the disinfectant with Kool Aid and the UV light with an Easy Bake Oven bulb. With people being less cautious of COVID 19 these devices are probably getting cheaper and what modern consumer doesn't love brand crossovers?

I originally posted this to [email protected] but I feel like it would be a better fit for a writing prompt. I feel like there's plenty of chances for humorous situations like Jesus wearing a noticeably fake beard and production staff getting people to sign NDAs.

Some people at work were kicking up toilet seat lids and angering the people doing work on the other side of the wall. It made me think about the Lunk Alarm but then I realised it would probably go off if someone took a loud shit.

I've attached a link to what the Lunk Alarm sounds like for those that don't know. It's pretty close to an air raid siren that's triggered by noise.

I found the image on Reddit while looking for demon core memes but because of Reddit's VPN block I can't give proper credit.

Wikipedia pages for those that don't know:


Bonus Plainly Difficult video for those who want to learn more about the Demon Core incident. It's about 10 minutes long.

Both seem in vogue with boomers. So why not get the best of both and be the talk of the BBQ?

Maybe the text could be altered to include reference to wearing the shirt versus copying and pasting text.

You need to have sound on. She's getting cussed at for what she's doing

The I ♥ NY shirt is so incredibly popular you don't even need to travel to New York to get it and it's been ripped off around the world.

But what about people that don't ♥ New York?

It's an untapped market. The attached image is an early draft. What does it mean to tolerate New York? I don't know.

Another version could say I Am Indifferent Towards New York.

Setting off a detector might give you a time bonus while they investigate.

I was watching the Simpsons episode where Homer is a firefighter and that gave me the idea.

What are gamers known for? Racism and urinating in bottles.

We take advantage of the untapped market of the latter and add RGB to milk jugs and charge 40x the price.

Why fight for the last slice of pizza when you can fight for the first?

Imagine one slice of pizza with 50% of the chicken. Could be a fun way to spice up office birthday parties.

Honestly USB C adapters. If you EDC a portable power bank it's worth looking into a USB C to micro and thunderbolt adapter. It's a lot easier than carrying around multiple cords and an easy way to help out friends and coworkers.

I think I got mine for a few dollars on Ali Express

I read some of their comments and it seems like this is a re-created account and they got into contact with the old moderators about it instead of going the /r/RedditRequest route. They did post on /r/RedditRequest about /r/LinuxQuestions.

They are aware of Lemmy and have commented the following

I use lemmy via the browser on my iPhone. It’s not amazing and it has a lot of bugs but I believe it’s a good platform - it’s just not ready yet

and

I’m very pro lemmy but as you say, it’s not quite ready yet. In the meantime, there’s an opportunity to help new users and maintain a decent space for everyone

In /r/Linux's pinned post they stated that we have new mods despite being the only moderator but commented the following

(We’re waiting to hear back from another user who might be available)


At least so far it doesn't sound like they are doing it maliciously or squatting on the subreddit. I feel like waiting until they had additional moderators or stating which moderator(s) gave them the go-ahead before making a pinned post along with mentioning that a lot of the community has attempted to migrate to Lemmy would have been a good idea.

Similar to the classic joke:

Why did the sperm cross the road?

Because I put on the wrong socks this morning.

  1. Lemmy is now a real alternative. When reddit imploded Lemmy wasn't fully set up to take advantage of the exodus, so a lot of users came over to the fediverse and gave up right away. There were no phone apps, the user interface was rudimentary, and communities weren't yet alive. Next time reddit screws up in a high profile way, and they will screw up, the fediverse will be ready.

I definitely think having mobile apps is an essential step. I was looking at alternative platforms such as Raddle.me but using a mobile browser was an extra hurdle (similar to using the official Reddit app) that kept me from regularly checking in.

  1. Lemmy has way more potential than reddit. Reddit's leadership has always been incompetent and slow at fixing problems. The fediverse has been very responsive to user feedback in comparison.

I could see this causing issues later. We've already seen issues arise with some instances using the .ml domain or not being updated immediately.

Defederation is another beast all together. Most of an instance might be fine but a few problematic communities could create problems leading to arguments and, as much as I hate the term, drama.

The article also lists other items on an area per calorie level too which is neat to see.

It does remind me a bit of this image.

Yeah a lot of the Benadryl memes out there are about dementia.

I'd recommend Kiwi. You can use it combined with Wikipedia's ZIM files to have access to just about all of Wikipedia offline.

I would recommend installing all of Libre Office's programs for work purposes. It's free and open source so you won't have to deal with licenses and unwanted updates.

Calibre would be a good tool to have for reading ebooks and converting files.

There's also apps like RedditOffline so if you have an intermittent connection you can browse threads offline. I imagine similar services exist for other platforms.

It uses a ranking algorithm. You can read more about it here but I don't think it's done at an individual level like Reddit.

SpotiFlyer. It matches songs in a Spotify playlist to songs on YouTube and downloads them. Great if you like Spotify's curated and niche playlists but don't like their app or restrictions on playback.

Antenna Pod is great for podcasts but that's not really piracy.
