PALS webbing and baby equipment is the most natural combination in the world

If it wasn’t olive green, I’d use this for sure

takes up a lot of floor space

In an office they could be stacked like bunk beds

I’m not sure where showerthoughts energy ends and trolling begins, but I feel like stupider things have been successfully marketed

But they’re rare compared to standing desks, so I guess no-one’s nailed the marketing yet!

I don’t use a standing desk.
Personally I’m waiting for someone to come up with the laying desk. I want to be fully reclining, with a couple of monitors suspended above my head, and the two halves of my split keyboard on little tables under my hands

who deeply believe in the mission (and the future value of their equity)

This is the only proviso for me. Some people wouldn’t mind working themselves to exhaustion for a lot of money. Then the question of whether it’s exploitative or not depends on the amounts involved and the conditions of equity ownership

Students who think they are chatting privately among friends often do not realize they are under constant surveillance

This is the problem

Not at the concentration described here!

More plutonium atoms too

The Bird - avian Godzilla rip-off
Starship Trooper - documentary about a person who obsessively kills insects “to save humanity” while wearing quasi-military uniform

The shape looks like a Darth Vader helmet, so maybe they could try leaning on the Star Wars theme?

Burn a book! Save a tree!

I’m using a few numpads as simple remote controls for HA, and I got a bit carried away and set 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 to set the alarm clock time for the following morning.

Never used it, I always just set the alarm time through the UI

The ecosystem is not so healthy on the server side, and I think the API documentation is a major factor.
The project has been sitting on this for many years

You could say it’s an improvement over BlueSky because with Mastodon you can host your own server, but if you don’t like their server, then you’re out of options

Mastodon builds on the ActivityPub protocol with its own API, but the last time I looked into it, the documentation of the API was poor, so it was difficult to develop for.

I haven’t looked at the BlueSky docs so I can’t compare, but it sticks in my craw a bit seeing the words “friendly for third-party devs” being used in the same sentence with Mastodon

I don’t get it.
The only use for a printer in this situation that I can think of is printing individual video stills and making them into an erotic flick-book, but I’m sure that’s not it

Be careful who you trust with your data! And back it up

As long as they don’t find a problem with maltitol. I just discovered “low-sugar” ice creams made using the stuff and they’re amazing

It’s not zero sugar like erythritol, and it’s not as sweet, but I like it

No-one suspected Bruce Wayne’s “free WiFi for Gotham City” initiative

It doesn’t even try?
People are right, this AI thing is overblown
