Anal probing would be a welcome change of pace.

Direct Inward Dialing, or basically a VOIP phone number.

I know that’s not what they meant, but DID is already an established term in IT.

Until we get around to mining asteroids.

Yeah, people are fucking stupid. I empirically proved they’d never get a lower price, but they passed because they thought the capitalism knew more than me.

Guess what? Those fuckers didn’t get to deep fry a turkey because they’re stupid. Which I guess is a net positive for turkeys

I’d call it fraud myself. But retailers have been doing this shit for forever. But the thing is that people love this shit.

JCPenny almost went under when they stopped deceptive pricing tactics like 20 years ago and just offered a really low price.

Shit, I worked at a major sports and outdoors retailer and we had tags that said “Everyday Low Price.” Items tagged with that would never go on sale because they were loss leaders (just barely above wholesale to get people to buy overpriced accessories).

I had customers with the items in their cart ask me if it was on sale, I told them it was the lowest price they were going to find and even price checked other retailers whose sale price was higher than ours, and they put it back every time.

People are really fucking stupid.

I wouldn’t hold my breath on that. I fully expect the 2A fanatics to willingly hand over their guns when trump picks back up the, “take the guns now and figure out due process later,” stuff from his first term.

Hmm, I wonder if I can use this on my Synology to manage things until I get around to finishing my proxmox setup.

I see you subscribe to the Amazon sales policy.

There is a method similar to a sheep shank knot that is super useful for very long cables, and you can use the over/under method for making the required loops.

Didn’t they just start shipping grid size salt batteries too?

Exactly. 99.9999% of consumers don’t give a fuck as long as they can still access Facebook and TikTok.

I know what words mean. China is a socialist market economy, which is not socialism.

China is a socialist market economy, not a socialist economy.

You can’t have a stock market and be a socialist economy.

China is by no means a socialist country.

Unless they’ve reverted the guidance, rescue breaths aren’t part of CPR anymore. The chest compressions move enough air.

The stairs might be even easier since the wheels would settle in them making taking breaks easier.

That’s not the American way.

Americans say we’re the best at something despite empirical evidence to the contrary.
