Yeah, the finer grained details of timekeeping can get confusing, but I learned all that from online sources and curiosity by age 17.
We really do live in an amazing era where technology does so much for us behind the scenes, until AWS takes a shit anyways…
- Comment on Don't fix the problem just change the parameters 1 day ago:
Very true yes, but even considering kids that aren’t as inclined to learn on their own, it can’t be too difficult for an adult or even older sibling to sit down for 5 minutes or so and explain it while watching the clock with them. It could be made even easier if you put it side by side with a synchronized digital clock/watch.
- Comment on Don't fix the problem just change the parameters 1 day ago:
How hard can it actually even be? Nobody taught me how to read an analog clock, I just figured it out myself by staring at my parents’ analog clock for exactly 5 minutes, while carefully watching the hands move and counting.
When I realized that the second hand ticked 60 times per revolution, and after it had went around 5 times, and the longer of the two slow hands had advanced from the 12 to the 1, then I simply thought to myself “Well I get it now, that’s not so difficult!”
And yes I correctly extrapolated the correlation between the minute hand and the hour hand too.

So, according to the diagram, the butthole of the eel is the positive electrode?
Or did I miss something here?

Only 7 days? Hell, I got permabanned years ago for mentioning Elon Musk’s Boring Company and their ‘Not A Flamethrower’ contraption, which is totally a flamethrower of sorts, and looks like a fucking toy!
And this was way before Elmo even mentioned the idea of buying Twitter and before Reddit went public…
Fuck Reddit and fuck Spez, they’ll just as soon ban you for mentioning facts.

- Comment on Why do so many put their resources in AWS us-east-1 when that's the only one (that I'm aware of) that has ever gone done? 6 days ago:
Don’t quote me on this, but I think I read earlier this morning that all of AWS has to go through East-1 to verify site certificates.
I’m not sure though, I was rather sleepy at the time I think I read something along those lines. 🤷

- Comment on How does Edward Scissorhands pee? 1 week ago:
There was like a 5 second clip where in the creator’s falling apart lab, you get to see the wind blowing the pages of his sketches for Edward flipping by.
It’s so easy to miss, but I caught that tonight.
It’s crazy yo, the last page of the sketches had his hands replaced with ‘real’ hands.
When the creator presented Edward with his new real hands upgrade, Edward apparently didn’t like them and stabbed through them.
Then the creator died, I guess due to a heart attack or something, because I don’t think Edward stabbed the creator…
Sigh, crazy movie…
Happy Halloween!

I just finished watching the movie again, and you’re right 👍
Tim Burton’s works are rather odd…

- Comment on To open, tear along the dotted line. What freaking dotted line? 1 week ago:
That wouldn’t have mattered either way, whether the tear area was properly perforated or not from the factory, or whether I would have done it myself.
I perfectly cut where it should have been cut with scissors, but still the zipper was poorly adhered to the bag, weaker adhesive than the zipper itself, so the zipper itself still peeled loose from the bag.
I anticipated something might go wrong, hence the photo before I even tried to open it, plus I already had a generic zipper bag handy before even trying to open it.
Put it this way, the turkey won’t be going to waste…
- Comment on To open, tear along the dotted line. What freaking dotted line? 1 week ago:
Oh, just wait until I’m about 3/4 of the way through the bag, only to find a slice of turkey with the dotted line printed directly on it…
😂
Nothing surprises me anymore 🤷
- Comment on To open, tear along the dotted line. What freaking dotted line? 1 week ago:
Yep. I perfectly cut the bag with scissors, but still the zipper was poorly adhered to the bag, and the zipper peeled loose off the bag as soon as I opened it, so I still had to dig out another generic zipper bag for the rest of the turkey.
Sigh, I tried my best, got it perfect, and yet the bag failed anyways. At least I already had a backup plan, as the photo I posted was before I even tried to open the package. I had a feeling it was still somehow gonna fuck up…

I know right? I hate it when I get turkey pubes between my teeth… 🤮
😂🤣
- Comment on To open, tear along the dotted line. What freaking dotted line? 1 week ago:
Nah, not meant to be perforated, but is meant to have a dotted line printed above that yellow instructions bar. The package did have the pre-slit cuts on both ends, in the appropriate location where I ultimately just decided to cut it instead, as I’ve seen all too many of those sort of tear open zipper bags just tear miserably wrong and ruin the whole package.
Sigh, even after like perfectly cutting the bag on the intended area where the dotted line should have been, still the zipper was barely adhered to the bag and the whole zipper peeled loose, making the built in zipper ultimately still useless ☹️
Hey, at least I pay attention for potentially defective resealable packaging though, the turkey sure ain’t gonna go to waste.
I’ve also seen other zipper bag issues with shredded cheese, where the two sides of the zipper don’t even line up and can never actually seal. I just fold those bags over like 3 or 4 times at the end and use a chip bag clip on those.
Also, why is it that cardboard cereal boxes and similar with the quick rip strip are almost always glued right under the part that’s supposedly meant to easily and quickly rip loose?
Sigh, too many mildly infuriating things on my mind to keep adding to this list…
