Yeah, but the table is three times too large relative to the chairs. :D

AMEN. That’s proper cause for a beat-down, TBH. Here in Brooklyn even most graffiti “artists” have the good sense not to tag a proper mural. My old roommate was a muralist and did some fantastic stuff in Bushwick - no one touched that stuff. ;) 

I read A Brief History of Time from my dad’s shelf when I was in high school, but do not currently own a copy of it.

LOL, the Echo Dot in the bedroom answers to “computer”; the Echo Show out in the living room answers to “Alexa”. I’m the Trekkie in the house and work from the bedroom, my husband is in the other room most of the time, so that actually works out perfectly (they don’t trip over each other and I get to pull a Scotty). :D

One I would hang if I ever get around to printing it is from an old company I used to work for (NGP VAN): “Build the world you want.” I have the t-shirt with that graphic, which I wear on a weekly basis, but I also managed to get the illustrator file from the designer who created it. I’d planned to put that up at…

I separate books into two categories - those I read purely for entertainment, and those that might have value either as reference or as works of art in their own right. As a result, I don’t tend to collect sci-fi stuff in hardcopy (with the exception of Star Trek design books and technical manuals). The stuff I do…

The obvious exception to this is Klingon weapons. :D

Maybe solar panels aren’t the best power source. ;) 

Why the hell do they still have that stupid nub? Who even uses that thing‽

expect a very large figure out of this world

Nice to see some programming stuff around here. :)

it suggests permission for pop-up prompts would become opt-in, and no longer automatically granted

So, uh, I guess you could say that Tesla was Finnish?

Did you read my whole post? I explicitly said “Most of this country is really horribly designed.” What part of shit suburban sprawl didn’t you get from that? ;) If you’re a farmer, that’s one thing, but we waste unbelievable amounts of land in this country on grass lawns and asphalt alone for no fucking reason.

Just saw this now (I never notice my notifications here). The problem with this is that I can’t stand Android. It’s a crap OS and the devices are all ugly to me, plus they don’t integrate with my MacBook (there’s a lot of value in being able to reply to a text on your laptop among scads of other things). What I’d like…

I’m sorry, but that screengrab looks like a goddamned sausagefest. 🤣

I spotted that too - that was fucking awesome. :D

It at least does show them picking up parts at the end, but I did wonder the same thing. ;)

And f**k capitalism while we’re at it too. It’s only served the rentier class for as long as I’ve been alive. 😡

It’s amazing how few people are aware of this. IIRC, it’s come up in Congress a couple times but never gets anywhere. After Citizens United, anyone wonder why? F**k the Supreme Court (at least since 2010).
