I loved having a Note 2 ages ago. But since then, the styluses that are paired with phones seem so awfully plastic and cheap. I use a pretty standard phone nowadays, but I’m keeping my eyes open for a phone with a good high quality stylus that has its resting place in a niche in the phone itself. Any suggestions?
I’m a European who was actually pleasantly surprised by the little of Alabama I’ve seen. Probably because I avoid discussing politics in my travels. Spent a week or thereabouts in Mobile. I’m not sure how representative that is for the rest of the state.
Oh, and I drove west for a while to this tiny place called Gulfport. I think that was in the next state over, though.
Awesome to hear. Where to, roughly?
Don’t forget Dieselpunk. That’s the aestetic that best describes the visual style of Factorio

If you take “Final fantasy tic tacs” literally, it sounds like pills laced with LOADS of fentanyl.
I still chuckle every time I see that posted unironically, as if it’s a nickname that’s going to stick.
A radio either turned to an AM station far away to the point where it’s mostly brown noise with hints of someone speaking, or to some calm music.
Nowadays it’s mostly KnowledgeFight.
Not sure when it started, plus my personal experience with JD stems from a tractor that was built in the 70’s. I think the model was 1033 or thereabouts.
At least it was (mostly) dealt with. Cars generally don’t need it anymore, and the few that do can reduce engine knock through additives. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a pump offering leaded fuel.
One big exception to all of this is small general aviation aircraft. They mostly run on AVGAS100LL, but it’s not because of the planes anymore. Just like cars, the few planes that need it can use additives. But regulation for fuel standards change slowly, and ICAO moves at the pace of glacial drift.
Ancient John Deere, while they were still good. I highly approve.
Bringing a modern day John Deer to the battle field would result in being stalled while waiting for a proprietary software update, which is suboptimal while under artillery fire.
Same as before mostly. Maybe a little bit more home office. I expect maybe 80% supporting the operations from home, and 20% in a port somewhere on the other side of the world. I like it that way: Either I’m seeing the world, or I’m chilling at home.
Visiting the head office, something I don’t do very often. Mostly to give people a proper farewell and go through the offloading regarding my work laptop et al. Tomorrow is my last day here.
“It’s visible that you’re field crew. It’s not often that people hand in their laptop, and the dirt is in the outside instead of covering the keyboard. On that note, once it’s off the domain you can keep it, we don’t need it”.
So I guess I’ll be using the same laptop in my new job, starting Monday.
Let’s just say that swans didn’t enjoy the human use for their necks.
IPv6 was introduced 26 years ago, so it will have to be longer than that
More popular than I anticipated, but at least somewhat controversial based on the vote ratio.
Did it once after some cats pissed on them, and they started smelling 1% worse than they did from my feet alone. They ended up bent and unusable.
Note: This was probably my own fault. It was before I learned how to properly use a washing machine, so it wouldn’t surprise me if I selected too high of a temperature. I also dumble dried them, and I have no idea if that was good for them either.
Well, I’m officially an unemployed bum this weekend. Today was the last day at the job I’ve had for the last 5 years.
That’s because a competitor gave me a better offer, and I’m starting there on Monday. I was going to get a haircut, but I realized that the lack of one, combined with not having shaved in a while, makes me look the part for Saturday and Sunday.
So… I’ll be clearing out my phone and laptop of anything pertaining to the old job, I guess.
