That sounds terrible. I’ll definitely give it a try.

I’ve had raccoon, which was terrible. Never had the chance to try cat.

Sea cucumber is supposed to be a delicacy, but never had it. Sea urchin is amazing in my experience, but someone here on Lemmy said it was awful. It may be a preparation or freshness issue. I’d like to try sea cucumber.

Sorry, I don’t. I looked and can’t find it.

I’ve never had cat, but have heard that mountain lion is really good. Supposedly, during WWII, lots of house cat was eaten in the UK and was called roof rabbit.

What kind of cat did you have and what were the circumstances?

G Code is basically a geometric scripting languge and isn’t Turing complete in basic implementations. Every manufacturer pretty much also has their own dialect that is Turing complete.

Gcode with control commands and variables is called, no shit, Macro G Code. It’s Turing complete. That form of variable names is normal and is inherited from hardware registers/banks and TTL.

It’s not unusual for a save dialog to be labelled Punch as it has a direct lineage from punch tape.

Kind of like assembly and a graphing calculator had an abortion together.

Yup, I was referring to seeing the original post the other day.

On second thought, the fediverse girl one is probably the true first copypasta.

Is this the first organic lemmypasta?

I was there and witnessed the orginal.

U R so fucken wrong. I am the best driver.

Idiots always be driving too slow in front of me or maniacs with a deathwish tailgating me. Wish everyone would get off of my road.

I read her statement. Still crazy as a shithouse rat and a true beliver of terrible and stupid things.

It didn’t really explain why she’s resigning. Just that the other kids won’t stop picking on her and the principal is really mean.

I’ve been wondering the same thing and haven’t seen reporting yet on who the victims are or their families. I figure there’s a decent chance that they are running drugs. Or, at least some of them are.

That being said, I’d totally run drugs if it was the only way to feed my family or they were being threatened. Just like the labor that farms coca, low level workers are mostly ethically blameless in my view.

That shit has to be terrifying, going out in a little boat knowing a military ship may blow you up. Their poor families have to live with the fear as well. Even worse is if they’re doing it under threat.

It’s the whole Pablo Escobar thing, I could give a fuck less if he gets whacked. However, that doesn’t mean some family trying to survive on subsistence farming and growing coca for extra cash deaerves a hellfire missle.

Any reliable reporting coming out on all these boats and crews that are being blown up?

(The ‘Drug War’ has been blatantly evil for decades. We know there’s a good chance the official narrative is bullshit, and there certainly is no nuance.)

Are they fishing, smuggling, or both?

This is great info! I use the plain jane P100 instead of dust masks all the time.

General respirator info for all my peeps:

3M 6000 half face and 7000 full face series reapirators are where it’s at. They’re worth the money even if you only ever use it for home repair.

I use one of them with the P100 disks all the time for dust, mold, grinding, drilling into possible asbestos, etc. Also effective against droplet born disease such as coronavirus. The organic vapor cartridge above also does particulate as a P100 (the organic vapor portion has a limited lifespan once opened, IIRC, but the filtration is indefinite). P100 particulate filtering lasts a long time, however, before they clog. Years with normal homeowner use.

Read up on sizing. Most average cis male sized heads will be a large. Average cis female sized head is medium.

If using a half face in an infectious or chemical environment, swim googles will protect your eyes.

Illinois nazis? I hate Illinois nazis.

Woah, this could be really cool for certain kinds of machine motion if it is computationally easy/fast/cheap.

The racism doesn’t explain it for me.

It’s certainly a contributing factor, and I think it’s closer to whatever venality trump has tapped into in these people.

However, just the way the man presents himself should have been an immediate turnoff for most of these people.

He’s a fop, a dandy, he’s got a swish in his mannerisms that borders queer stereotypes for many southerners. He’s city soft. Which these people hate just as much as they hate black folks.

Personal experience, I don’t understand deacons, colonels, PhDs, and skilled blue collar worshipping the freak. It’s not about policy, it’s that they’re just as bigoted against how he presents himself as they are about race.

I get how the mechanics of it work. That’s not hard to see and understand.

The part I don’t understand is the cult of personality. The personality is repulsive. He violates all kinds of norms the fundies literally hold as sacred. Trump is openly a cartoon of what fundies rail against, teach their children not to be, and consider evil.

I was born and raised southern fundie. A new york city, orange makeup wearing, reality tv, biblically ignorant, multiply divorced, fucktard conman is about the last thing I could see them falling for. That’s the part I don’t understand. Mike Johnson, Bush, Cheney - I understand. Hell, they didn’t like Romney because he was Mormon.

If you’ve ever seen the movie The Outlaw Josey Wales, there is a yankee carpet bagger selling snake oil. He’s comic relief and is an archetype of slimy dandy Yankee sales weasel. There are cultural tropes against exactly the sort of person Trump is including his appearance.

And yet, they fell for it. I don’t get it.

Sitting on the inside here. I’m perpetually astounded as well. Very little of this suprises me anymore but plenty of things shock me.

He’s a stereotypical conman; so shallow, so obvious. And yet, my family and former friends continue to slurp up his bullshit. It’s so fucking stupid. He’s so stupid. On paper, many of these people are smarter than the orange used car salesman.

It’s difficult to describe how astounded I really am. Black magic or aliens would make more sense. I would find a novel or show with this unrealistic.

I wonder if I’ll ever understand?

Might think about taking a break for a while. I have to, sometimes. Do some camping and mostly unplug. Anything real big goes down and you’ll hear about it.

Marathon, not a sprint. Fuck em, we’re harder. Country boy can survive.

I really like your analysis.

I really fucking hope you’re right.

He sounds like a pretty awesome dude. Thanks for sharing. Also sounds like he has you pretty well trained, he gets to ride and sniff.

We don’t have a small dog right now, our elderly Chihuahua reached the end a couple years ago and my wife is still raw.
