Trickhay on YouTube… Learned about him when he posted an ad on Craigslist looking for a singer for his music. He’s become an inside joke for my SO and I. I think my favorite is “hoop dance”.

Redlettermedia, crime pays but botany doesn’t, many a true nerd, nekkid watchmaker

Same deal with ave. It’s fine, his content also started going downhill.

Celebrities gross me out, and my crush turned out to be an insufferable c***.

Not to be depressing… When i was 5 I sometimes slept in bed next to my mom. Woke up one of those days and she was already in rigor mortis. I touched her and she felt like an uncooked turkey, if that makes any sense. Took me a couple decades before I could actually handle an uncooked turkey or like, be around someone wearing her favorite perfume without almost fainting. Nobody knew exactly what killed her, maybe just sudden death syndrome.

If animals count, when i was about 6 my sister had a horse that slipped on the cement and when it managed to pull itself back up… I don’t think it’s totally accurate, but my memory is that its whole body was raining blood a few feet in front of me. Like I remember my vision being framed by blood dripping like a rainstorm from a cloud. Needless to say, it didn’t survive. I remember my dad using the hose to spray all the blood off the cement. I saw lots of dead pets over the years… Between all the wild animals and the back road that everyone sped on, most pets had short lifespans.

Anyway, I grew up through a lot of other fucked up stuff… And people wonder why I’m weird. And if you don’t want morbid answers, don’t ask morbid questions.

I’d go for Jellyfin over Plex myself.

just a couple of years… yeah…

There’s a dozen apps for it, but I wouldn’t trust them to do a perfect job. At a bare minimum, you’d probably need to keep said app up to date at all times, and it’d need to be one that runs in the background or runs on every boot or something.

My favorite general image viewer is nomacs.

I guess an AOSP-based rom, if one exists for your phone?

Reply to old reply, sorry. Technically blocking the IP isn’t perfect either. In theory, as long as it has the wifi credentials, and your wifi has access to the internet, your TV will be able to access the internet if it really wants to. All it’d have to do is ignore the IP assignment or fake/change a MAC address during DHCP. I don’t know why a “legit” TV would do this, but if you get some unbranded Chinese thing, or if any wifi device wants to be malicious, it can bypass DHCP+IP filters very easily.

I don’t want to give anything away for people, so I’ll just say that I never really appreciated the climax/ending part. It was pretty good up until that. I actually couldn’t help but start laughing the first time I saw it, which I doubt was the intended reaction. Basically the movie turns into schlock.

The house was built 7 years ago, so maybe the plumbers just threw on whatever they had in their van. Do you know what the crimped method/area is called on this thing? Is there a specific term for it?

Unfortunately is has stopped leaking for now. I say unfortunately, because I don’t know when it may start again. It seemed to start to leak when I pulled out the dishwasher, so movement/flexing/etc made it happen. I was unable to determine exactly where it leaked from, but it seemed to pool near the center of the entire valve, so it could have been near the crimped area or the knob area, or maybe even the connection going off to the dishwasher, and the water could have just run down to the lowest bit of the valve.

It’s 1/2" nominal PEX going to a quarter-turn shutoff, to a 3/8 braided dishwasher line. I just didn’t know what to call the weird crimped/connector part on the PEX, and thus how to properly remove it if necessary. All of the PEX crimps that I’ve found online have been very different looking.

Oh, that’s a PEX crimp? Does it have a specific name? Most of the PEX crimps that I’ve found have looked very different.

Never connect your smart TV to the internet. Just don’t do it. Get a third party device or ideally use an old PC with an appropriate HTPC Linux distro or something.

Yeah I played S&M and Full Throttle probably once every couple months when I was a kid… how else can you recite every scene from the entire game?

Oof that was a hard one to watch sometimes

A few days ago, I tried to catch up to my 4 year old who was running down our asphalt driveway after getting off the preschool bus, running to the back-left of him, he turned into my path to see where I was, so I sort of “jumped” out of the way to avoid plowing right into him, just barely clipped him a bit but tore up my arm and knee landing on the asphalt. Stupid, because I should have assumed he might decide to change direction or something… seems obvious now.

Before that, a few months ago I was cutting a watermelon and, with my hand that was holding the melon in place, I pulled it up off the melon too haphazardly and the tip of the knife sliced deep into my ring finger. Borderline needed stitches, but didn’t get them. Got by fine with butterfly bandages and wound glue, but there’s yet another big scar on my hands. At least I still have all my fingers. I was given a Christmas gift of a cut glove after that.

Vimeo seems to have a different demographic in mind.
