My bet is on “wanted pets while the human had a highlighter in hand”
A lot of office buildings actually use metal studs, so these screws are used to attach them together. They’re a common enough thing that I wouldn’t be overly suspicious of anything.
Might be something about the self tapping head that makes them more likely to bite in a tire?? Just speculating there…
Looks to me like a self tapping screw which had its head broken off / worn down. You probably just picked them both up from the same spot, double check your driveway / lot

My team gets together and plays a boardgame. Lately it’s been Gartic Phone, but we also like Code Names, Wavelength, Jackbox… Fun way to spend an hour on a friday

Prok@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is the most unfriendliest country that you’ve visited?21·3 个月前I just want to say while not overly friendly, my wife and I were in Belgium last year and as long as you don’t insist on trying to speak English at someone who said “no English” it was a perfectly nice place to be… Even when we were off the beaten path
Prok@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do people really think setting up domestic manufacturing in the USA is easy?5·3 个月前This is exactly the thing I can seem to get anyone to agree with me on … Imported goods will never become significantly more expensive than American for the reason you just said…
There’s a lot of money in figuring out the right margin below the imported product such that they’ll lose some sales but ultimately profit more because of the increased profit margins. Not that you were seriously saying it would be a dollar cheaper but most I talk with tend to think that difference is much bigger than I expect which tends toward single digit percentage differences
Just trying to figure out how to work those blinds to let more sun in
Prok@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•These posts are unhinged. No I don't miss a candidate that couldnt beat donald fucking trump. How shitty do you have to be to lose to him in any fucking universe?51·4 个月前Nah, just low effort… that paragraph he wrote is anything but…
Prok@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Beyond RGB: A new image file format efficiently stores invisible light dataEnglish42·4 个月前Yeah, it compresses better too though, and jpeg XL can be configured to compress lossless, which I imagine would also work here
Prok@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Power is not energy: why the difference matters [Technology Connections]English63·4 个月前Full disclosure, I didn’t watch the video yet, but it’s likely a difference of environmental impact.
He’s described in previous videos how burning gas at home is less efficient from the standpoint of a carbon footprint. I imagine this video is to help explain everything in a way that helps you come to that conclusion yourself. Teach a man to fish instead of just giving a fish and what not. So you can apply the knowledge to other things in your life
Prok@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•After 50 million miles, Waymos crash a lot less than human driversEnglish4·4 个月前I doubt a central system would ever be viable, but they would certainly communicate to other nearby cars with more than just blinky lights
Prok@lemmy.worldto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Is Linux support still needed nowadays, or is Steam OS good enough?English71·4 个月前Native is always better, but Proton (what’s used by steam OS to run windows games) has worked for me for every title I’ve tried (even some small indie titles)… Sometimes graphics settings can be inconsistent, but I’d say it’s a pretty safe bet if you’re using an established engine it will just work with Proton
Yeah I don’t plan on switching unless I feel like I need to… Knowing what made others give up just helps me from wasting time fighting through something that might be a common issue…
I picked Nobara for it to be no-hassle, which it’s done a great job of for me so far
If you have a moment to indulge a random person…
What made you feel the need to switch off of Nobara? I’ve been using it and it’s been fine, but I’d love to know some things to keep an eye out for
I’m a colemak typer and I switched my phone to it to help when I was learning and it actually works really well since it emphasizes alternating hands it makes thumb typing pretty fluid. It does also tend to have some finger rolls which really just feels like tapping as you move your fingers back to the middle of the keyboard.
Not to say there aren’t better, I was just surprised how well it worked
