This is hilarious.

True, and this time “The House” wasn’t the casino.

I hear they like turtles.

some of them are devilishly hard to master.

The Magmoor Bomb Jump energy tank in the original version of Metroid Prime wants to say hello.

Accidental DisplayPort guy checking in. I didn’t even know it was a thing until I bought my graphics card. It seems like I dummied my way into some good tech.

My experience with Manjaro was okayish for a lot of things, but if I wanted to try some new software, it was a coin toss to see if it would compile or not, and I don’t have the expertise to track down why something didn’t compile. I got fed up with it recently when something I wanted to install…didn’t compile. I went to the effort of backing up my computer, missed a few minor folders, and migrated to Mint.

When my mother was still around, any time I tried to open a jar after she’d gotten to it, I would destroy my hands and still not be able to get it open. I could wreck tendons, give myself blisters, try all the tricks mentioned in this thread, and those lids wouldn’t budge. It was like she found a way to weld metal to glass with her bare hands. By comparison, opening the factory seal was no effort at all.

I’m well aware. I’ve never had any trouble opening a factory-sealed jar.

All these people are complaining about how hard it is to open a jar, and I’m sitting here scratching my head because the only times I’ve ever struggled with jars was after someone closed them too tightly. Just don’t use a death-grip when you’re closing your jars and you’ll be fine unless you’re elderly or something.

If I had unlimited F You money, I would either leave Nebraska or sponsor some carpetbaggers from New York or California, preferably enough of them to sway the elections here.

Manjaro repos: The Arch machine gun, but it keeps jamming.

Currently in the process of getting my ducks in a row to move to a different distro. The one on my computer right now has some shortcomings that I just can’t look past. I need to scan something, and Manjaro can’t build the driver I need. Manjaro has been sadness and disappointment, both times that I’ve tried it. Don’t use Manjaro.

In this case it would be self-defense. The only reason anyone thinks otherwise is because the danger posed by a billionaire money hoarder is far more abstract than what most people are accustomed to.

That’s why if you absolutely need an extension cable, you should get one that’s just long enough and can handle the current. I have my toaster oven on a heavy duty, 2 foot extension cord because the nearest outlet is just barely too far away. If the cord came out the other end of the toaster oven, I wouldn’t need the extension.

You thought it would be a new yellow guy, but it was I! DIO!!

Next thing you know, he’ll turn into this guy.
