  A phone would be a bit much, but an ereader with a solar charger loaded up with Wikipedia and a chunk of Project Gutenberg would probably last with a bit of care.

  That’s a joke-turned-plot element from one of the Hitchhiker’s Guide books. The protagonist, a human everyman stranded with a primitive culture on a distant world realises he has no idea how electricity, steam engines, medicine, etc works but he becomes a respected member of their community by making sandwiches.

  So to be clear: there is no correlation between weed use and hotdog use, other than that they’re both in decline. This means that they created this graph showing two unrelated datasets for no reason other than that they could. Or, maybe, because they wanted to use the cursed image of a spliff in a hotdog bun.

  IF the phone can output enough power with it’s OTG port AND has the correct drivers for that cheap-ass looking USB framebuffer graphics thing AND that’s an active HDMI to VGA adapter rather than some shitty vendor-specific implementation based on some unholy bastardisation AND the phone supports external displays… then I still don’t think it’d work, tbh (but it won’t (it might though (it won’t))).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which timezone would win in a conflict?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Every military in the world uses UTC so I’m gonna say that.

  Otherwise, I’d go for UTC-1 because… well, look at it. There’s no way they could lose because there’s nothing there to lose. Nuke away, boyos, it’s all ocean.

  I should eat nothing but breakfast food from now on.

  While this shit is permitted I don’t want to hear any Americans criticise another county’s cuisine.

  Imagine having a multi-monitor setup like that and using the built-in d🤢sk st🤮nds.

  Some female humans also have pseudo penises and they’re dishwasher safe so checkmate nature.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I get the rest of them, but what's a jobs sandwich?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Choad chowder. Ramrod regiment. Anaconda assembly. Meatstick meeting. Phallic phalanx.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cable placement a little weird, but the ergonomics are excellent.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not quite fully vertical, but I got a Microsoft Sculpt Mouse ten years ago and it was an overnight improvement. I fear the day it finally gives up the ghost.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You donkey⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, three days have passed and I didn’t think for a second I’d be into THAT of all things but, well, here we are. Thanks - appreciated.

  The squat toilet is for pooping what the urinal is for wee. If you have really baggy trousers you don’t even need to undo your belt.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Remember beans?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Understandable mistake, but wrong. Here’s a documentary about Bilbo Baggins that might help.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Remember beans?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s beans. Remember beans?

  I didn’t know what Dimmu Borgir is but since were talking about food I have now convinced myself it’s a Middle Eastern take on the cheeseburger and I will not be told otherwise.

  May we all inherit the world that we strive to create.

  I was gonna say, that kid was better on the banjo than I am on the vielle à roue.

  Smart Character 1: “This waterfall provides fresh water for drinking and farming, a plentiful source of energy, ideal fishing grounds, and camouflages us from the predators senses such that we can talk and act freely.” Smart Character 2: “We must not live here.” Smart Character 1: “Of course not.”

  Ahem.

  Anyone else see the extremely revealing tube top at the front? No? Just me, then. Alrighty.

  If they tell you they watched the Fallout TV series, what you really need to know is how often they paused it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨have some standards⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Couples who play MMOs together have that kinkiest sex lives. There, I said it.

  If you can’t make a broken family at home, store-bought is fine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A conundrum⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Most countries have fixed-rate mortgages. Most rental properties are also mortgaged. So a renter is paying for maintenance/insurance/tax costs, the landlord’s profits margin and the landlord’s mortgage.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A conundrum⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Mortgage payments are almost universally lower than rent payments. With rent, you’re paying for upkeep, maintenance, administration, a profit margin and the landlord’s mortgage.

  Yes, it is considered good protocol to include the header.

  How do you improve this? Easy. You improve it the same way you improve the Sistine Chapel, There Will Come Soft Rains or Nick Offerman’s moustache: you leave it the fuck alone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Step 1: Delete⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Which just makes this model all the more impressive.
