Would you not just sit facing in with your feet dangling through the opening? I sure would.

I have these for all my chargeable things. Bought like 4 packs with multiple port types, so I have tons of extra cables in case some die. They are great for game controllers, phones, tablets, rechargeable keyboards, and all sorts of other shit. All you need is multiple ends, and you can use the same cables for everything. It’s glorious if you have a mix of port types.

I have a similar story from 2001, 8th grade science fair.

One of the kids had a seismograph (parents) one had some bacteria thing (probably also parents, that kid was as dumb as the contents of his petri dishes) they all looked super professional and stuff and were obviously shit from books or the internet.

I fucked around for weeks in class doing basically nothing and the night before threw together a hand written display with some info I looked up, painted a balloon and pvc pipe with paint, and stuck it on. The “project” was about the impact of static on heavy machinery and the idea of applying an insulating coating to reduce static buildup and transference on machine parts, displayed via balloon, pipe, and latex paint. Totally original idea (to me, anyway) and research and they thought it was great even tho it looked like complete shit.

time to bunker down extra hard

Is this a typo/autocorrect or an eggcorn? I really like bunker down as an eggcorn, because it makes good sense, so I hope that’s what it is (the phrase is supposed to be hunker down). :)

Oh shit lineage was cyanogen? I used that back in the day and loved it!

I’ll keep that in mind, thanks for the tidbit!

Have you read the sword of truth series by terry goodkind? Easily my favorite fantasy series, however there are 17 books in the core series, 21 total. I was also a bookworm and it killed me waiting for new releases..

The rifters trilogy by Peter watts is great surreal sci-fi, and freely available (he released it free on his own website, as well as ebook download)

I listened to an audiobook about the history of zero years ago (can’t remember the name, might be that one). I thought it would be dull enough to fall asleep to.

It was not.

Same, but I do have a shoe box of notes (including full notebooks) my bff and I would pass to each other all day back in the late 90s. It’s full conversations with dates and everything (there were more but she had the other half)

It’s a blast reading some of that stuff nearly 30 years later.

Bring two foam weapons with you, give one to opponent, have blast.

I’ve done that a lot with mods.. get the mods I want set up and then realize I don’t actually want to play..

So you’re saying the horses should have been used to hide all evidence of the ineptitude of the men.

That works too.
