I bought a topo map a few weeks ago for a backpacking trip. Electronics are heavier and less suitable for that purpose in my opinion.
Just a geek, finding my way in the fediverse.

The inside of the can is lined by spray coating an epoxy lacquer or polymer to protect the aluminum from being corroded by acidic contents such as carbonated beverages and imparting a metallic taste to the beverage
Guess it depends on your definition of “plastic” and if someone would colloquially refer to an epoxy lining as plastic. Not here to debate word meanings but there is definitely a liner inside aluminum cans.
gun-zip just rolls off the tongue better. Two syllables instead of three? Yes, please.
I’ve never heard fs-tab in my life. Always f-stab. Hmmm…
Whoopsie!
I’ll join this.
I commented on a motorcycle thread a few days ago where the poster said “bike from 1982, over forty years old” (or something to that effect) where I had to do the math and realize… Shit… That was forty years ago.
I’d been looking for the nudge to cancel and the last round of ads did it for me.
Really? I’ll have to look into migrating from AWS. Thanks for the tip!
I was going to make a remark about the price of dirt, then I remembered buying non-clay soil for the garden. In retrospect, it’s cheaper than dirt.
I mean… Expiration dates are mostly a lie anyway. Just do the sniff test, probably fine.
But, on topic, I do appreciate the post since that’s weird.
Vas team high five.
I just don’t like kids and the spouse has a genetic disease so it’d be 50/50 if the kids had it.
My 2017 Honda Civic doesn’t have a touch screen but I did specifically have to get the “lower end” LX model. All the EX models I looked at were touch control.
Paying less money to ensure I don’t get garbage I hate? Don’t threaten me with a good time.
EDIT: I enjoy how I managed to accidentally format the “not arguing” bit in huge font so I’m screaming at you for some reason… Sorry
Not exactly to your question, but a company I used to work for would ask for experience in internal only tools on job reqs.
Sure, hopefully it’s for people making role changes internally, but it seems a bit weird to ask for experience in <custom internal tool it is literally impossible to see, use, or hear about without working there> for an entry level job.

How am I supposed to doom scroll without doom posts?

For years I’ve desoldered components from electronics that are destined for recycling/trash. I haven’t needed them more than a few times but it’s redeeming when I need a specific thing I’ve never needed before and can pick one out of my component box rather than buying a pack of 100 and never use 99 of them.
Tiny momentary SPST switches are definitely the most common thing I use from the bin but I’ve also reused some LEDs, capacitors, and resistors.
Do you work with me? I’m in the US south and my EU colleagues love “y’all” and have started using it (ironically or not :) pretty often.
Warms my heart.
I had one. I don’t remember why though… Maybe it came with a PC as part of a sales promotion?
It worked fine but nobody else had one so it was really just used for backups of “large” (at the time) data.
Lately I’ve been partial to Yeats similar quote :
