@Museek @Beanc @evamarie so if it just won't turn on, might be a relatively easy fix. They get hot from full bags or whatever and and can melt the solder on the little control board. It's a quick job to re-do.

@Museek @Beanc @evamarie may I ask what "destroys" means? It stops turning on, or....?

@JerichoTaskerDeaux what?! 🤯

@damselfly59 previous cat would just bite straight through that cord.

Definite contributing factor to why it is now called "previous cat"

@grayman @ceb saw an amanita on the dog walk just now. I won't even touch those monsters

@Beanc congrats. Sometimes people forget an important step in power tool usage: After the tool is used and set down on a stable surface, take a look at your hands and count all the fingers.

@IrelandTorin the EFF link at the bottom of the article is wrong. The correct link is below. I will be contacting my congress creatures.

@stueytheround @th3j35t3r actually it's spelled "Taint"

How fast are the new Speedo swimsuits?

@Beanc Also suspicious of a "food" that rhymes with a catastrophic geologic phenomenon. Don't think that's coincidence.

“Sturzstrom” as a stream of very rapidly moving debris derived from the disintegration of a fallen rock mass of very large size; the speed of a rock avalanche often exceeds 100 km/h, and its volume is commonly greater than 1 × 106 m3.

@Beanc Nope no nopity. Durian a few times. Nattō once. Fish is good until it _isn't_

I mean someone offered me lutefisk once.

Once.

@Alfred Well that's reasonable and kind of disappointing. Thought I might have a new theory of Viking behavior patterns.

@Alfred I was thinking, would vikings have eaten grapes, or would they have found them so foreign as to be disgusting, like, gross plant pustules that, if offered, would offend the Vikings so much they would lay waste to the area and enslave the people to row them back to safer cuisine.

@Bix oh cool, this again from 180 degrees. We hashed this out in 2019. Her record is mixed but soft on crime she is not.

@mcfate @sjvn "part of the U.S. broadcaster’s bet to boost ratings by infusing coverage with pop culture." Oh he has a whole role. Yes, I do think infusions will come into it.

@mcfate @sjvn How's that remotely a fair competition.

Could be fake but I hope not. Would love to know the story:
