Complete my "collection"?

@_L1vY_ I can't wait to hear your band, Clown Siren, at your next performance

@trochee @_L1vY_ it's got the warm sound you can only get from a tube amp

Sometimes somebody hands you a bag full of sushi. Sometimes the bag is laying flat rather than upright. Sometimes there's a very good reason the bag is oriented this way.

My son learned this the hard way last night.

@annika Just over here imagining a new fast food joint called Sushi Bag

Outrage is an industry, for sure. But, does that imply we have nothing to be outraged against, because I don't think it does.

ElectricDoorknob,
@ElectricDoorknob@mastodon.world avatar

@StillIRise1963 I much prefer locally sourced, small batch artisan outrage to manufactured outrage

Welp, that's a first.

Xfinity won't let me pay them for Internet service, because my … last name is “not valid.”

ElectricDoorknob,
@ElectricDoorknob@mastodon.world avatar

@ELLIOTTCABLE Have you considered legally changing your first name to Xfinity just to mess with them?

I don't post on here much any more, or monitor it much, so probably better to find me on Bluesky if you need me.

De gustibus etc. No platform is perfect. But I feel more comfortable there, and less like I'm likely to get screamed at for using Latin without a CW or something.

@Popehat Sorry to hear that! IMO the discourse on the fediverse has mellowed out as the population has grown

People complaining about e-scooters littering public spaces obviously haven’t seen cars.

@davidho ok ok, but I can actually imagine throwing a scooter into the river

If you want to know how stubborn I am, I’m trying to learn to play guitar, but I don’t like the way they lay out guitar chords so I redesigned everything to make guitar chord flash cards in “my language.”

ElectricDoorknob,
@ElectricDoorknob@mastodon.world avatar

@Alice This is a clever adaptation of chord fingering diagrams and it's quite clear why you did it; your versions map spatially to the guitar without having to mentally perform multiple transformations. My favorite part is how you've indicated the strummed strings, placing the notation on the side your stunning hand sits (assuming right handedness).

I imagine you've found that making these has helped you memorize them as well

Hotel UI challenge!! Which of the two sides of this door hanger do you think is used for “please clean my room”?

A door tag that says “clean enough” with an orange background.

ElectricDoorknob,

@cabel ok, but what does it mean if there's an old timey saw hanging in your hotel room?

@annika porque no los tres?

Is this the plot of a thriller called "Taxi Rider"?

Software RAID 1 sync on a new Hetzner would probably account for disk slowness, right? apt install is a little slower than I would expect but I see mdstat shows "resync = 7.2%"

ElectricDoorknob,
@ElectricDoorknob@mastodon.world avatar

@annika Absolutely. I'd expect the resync to be lower priority than user space requests but still. Especially if they're spinny disks.
