My microwave is so old the hum of the transformer is louder than the worn out bell that signals when it’s done. Eventually i’ll pillage the transformer out of another one to keep it going. I refuse to lose the mechanical dials that are on it.

Basically that phone was a continuous hand me down. My dad, a construction worker, bought it for himself, hence the cement mixer. Then, he managed to get a phone plan with insurance, so if it broke at work he wouldn’t have to pay for another phone. And the s5 got handed over to my mom. Where the pasta sauce happened.
Last. It got handed to me. A wee kid that was starting to dabble into the deeper side of IT. And thats were the rooting came from.
That phone is a trooper. And i genuinely miss when phones were not as fragile as tissue paper.

Galaxy s5. That phone fell twice in boiling pasta sauce, survived falling in a cement mixer. And managed to not get corrupted by 13 y.o. me rooting a phone for the fist time. No replacements parts other than a new battery. It still fucking runs.

- Comment on why do some people put a space before a question mark or exclamation point? 2 weeks ago:
The reason i sometimes do it is because my brain sees a typed word as ending with a space in principle. Even if it the only word i’m typing. I doubt i managed to make sense, but anyways.

It’s funny when looked sideways, but when looked from the front it’s two distortion filters away from analog horror.
- Comment on WTF is this ad in my recording app 4 weeks ago:
Btw if you are familiar with, or already use f droid. adaway is a pretty nice way to stop ads system-wide. It will occupy the vpn connection, since it’s how it forces ads to not load. But it’s pretty nice.
(Also, be careful with the vpn being set as always on. I had phones that set it like that automatically, anf after uninstalling the app. The phone still expected to connect through a dead vpn, preventing internet access altogether. Fun :p)

- Comment on Do you use your blinker in a car? 2 months ago:
Yes, i don’t even think about it anymore, i just throw my hand on the stick as i turn the steering wheel, even for simple adjustments when i park. It’s not as mutch ahead of time at it should be, but still better than most of my country tha might as well not have that stick.
- Comment on You cannot learn without failing. 2 months ago:
No work is wasted if it gives a clearer picture of something. Even if you get disproven, it just means that you found one of the dark parts of the picture. Now sure, people mostly remember the ones that discover the brighter parts of the image. But the whole picture is still made of both the dark and bright parts. We don’t just need to know what works, we also need to know for sure what DOESN’T work. Or else we’ll never know the real bounds of something.
Now if you don’t mind, i’ll go back to slamming my head against analysis.

Kind of curious where KMFDM would fit. I would think top for sure. But i feel like most of their songs would make them swing left and right like a metronome. Example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQ3lsxONdiw

- Comment on What are some slow acting poisons? 2 months ago:
For that i think having a read about acqua tofana would be a pretty good source of inspiration, since it was designed to have effects like an illness. it originates in italy so most of it’s ingredients are by default from a mediterran climate.
Or if you want something natural without too mutch human processing, belladonna is a surefire, but not slow acting.
