In the episode he did on it he had to borrow it from Pat the NES Punk. Of course that was 14 years ago, so I assume he could have gotten his hands on them since.

Out of curiosity, what would you plug those into to get the best use of them? I couldn’t imagine the headphone jack on my motherboard would be able to take full advantage of them.
I don’t care what M$ says, Azure DevOps is being left for dead. As someone who worked on the System Center space for years, I know the signs of a product they want to kill but can’t. I’m convinced the only reason it is still around is because some internal teams haven’t moved to GitHub yet.
hactar42@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's your favorite thing that anyone has done out of pure spite?4·15 days agoBack around this time I was in the military and each base had Public Folders in Outlook where people could post stuff for sale. I left my computer unlocked one day and one of my colleagues posted my car for free on there. This was also back when you would have like 25 MB mailbox limits. Needless to say my inbox got filled up in minutes.

So glad I got out of there.
Depends on what it is. If it’s where I put something, something I need to get done, or what I went to the grocery store for, my memory is horrible. If it’s a completely useless fact that will never come in handy, my memory is amazing.

She’s currently watching a squirrel across the street and not bolting, so we’re making good progress.

About 15 years ago I did some work with a large international pharmaceutical company with over 2,000 of offices across the world. There was a laptop in an empty cubicle with signs like this on it. Apparently if it turned off their entire email system would go down.

But I’m starting to come around since What We Do in the Shadows. I also never had a problem with her voice acting.
That is way too nicely built. For the true Gen-X feel you need cinderblocks and plywood.
The man smoked 3-4 packs of cigarettes a day, so that’s all you could smell. Thankfully we didn’t have to sleep there. My parents would have us stay at the motel/grocery/gas station/bar/restaurant/video store/boat rental/fish license place in town.
hactar42@lemmy.worldOPto Dogs@lemmy.world•Pretty sure she’s 10 lbs lighter after her haircutEnglish41·2 months agoThat’s good to know. She for sure has the husky undercoat. When she was a puppy she feels into the pool when it was 20° out. I took her to the vet to get her checked out and they told me she was just fine because of the undercoat.
The only reason we went so short is because we are moving to Connecticut and our new house is in a very wooded area. So ticks are a real threat. Since we don’t have a lot of experience dealing with ticks we decided to cut it short so we can better see them.
Of course she is on Frontline but still didn’t want her giving them a ride back into the house with all her fur. Once we get settled and are able to assess the property and hopefully get some tick defense stuff in place, we’ll let it grow out again.
I’ll be sure to keep an extra eye on her when she’s outside. She’s such a cold weather dog that she sits in the shade almost exclusively unless it’s the dead of winter. But that is in Texas. I’m sure she’s going to love Connecticut.
hactar42@lemmy.worldOPto Dogs@lemmy.world•Pretty sure she’s 10 lbs lighter after her haircutEnglish9·2 months agoAlso, since it always comes up, she was found on the streets so we don’t know her back story, but had her DNA tested. She is:
- 39.3% Siberian Husky
- 17.1% Cocker Spaniel
- 15.2% Bichon Frise
- 8.8% Pomeranian
- 5.3% German Shepherd Dog
- 4.7% Maltese
- 9.6% Supermutt (with traces of Alaskan Malamute and Small Poodle)
The Husky and German Shepherd Dog come from Mom. Dad was everything else.
Reminds me of my hermit uncle who used to clean the beer cans off of his floor with a rake before we would come visit.

Every so often I’d go through and try to clean them up but it stayed around 150 files. I got a new laptop a couple of weeks ago and I’ve slowly crawled back up to about 15-20.
You might want to rethink the nightshirt because it has an Ebeneezer Scrooge vibe to it.
