Are you able to tag the appliances after you’ve huffed all the freon out? I’ve got an old fridge in the basement I need to get rid of but can’t until I get someone out to extract the freon and put the evacuation certification tag on it.

DM me if you can help.

I will always use “M as in ‘Mancy’”

Excellent catch!

“Tell me how old you are without telling me how old you are” 😢

Don’t feel bad. I was able to distinguish by ear between a T.38 fax handshake and a V.34+ modem handshake which definitely reveals my oldness 😆

So many things wrong with that though:

1. That’s a fax machine handshake not a data modem.
2. That’s a LOT of data to be hissing over dial-up in a highly compressed GSM voice channel
3. She didn’t dial anywhere near enough numbers
4. The background noise would have had that handshake repeating over and over

The most nostalgic chiptune generator you’ll ever hear.

I’m just now realizing that’s probably my resting face.

Chuck Norris never dies. He just waits.

TIL and nice bit of trivia!

If you’re gonna repost stuff from ml at least re-upload it so I don’t have to connect to it.

That’s why I’m planning on investing in a solar+battery system for my home this spring. Well, that, and because my electric rate keeps rising.

Maybe not PSU shortages, but definitely power supply shortages.

This is her when she was younger (about 7 y/o). Don’t have any recent ones I can post right now where I wouldn’t have to blur out the background, etc. Blame the AI tools that let you feed pictures in and return a location. Grr…lol

My 11 year old dog still gets the zoomies.

The “Cuatro Leches” is like the jackasses on The Price is Right who, seeing you’ve bid $500, bids $501.

They should be. I have never seen them anywhere in my neck of the woods, but I did find a vape juice that’s “Tres Leches” flavored. It’s pretty amazing.

If I couldn’t pull out because some little Urkel car did that, I’d be pissed. Pissed enough to call a buddy to help me pick it up and move it onto the sidewalk. 😅

TBF, you can read just about anything in Walken’s voice and it sounds like a disinterested threat lol.

These ah, boots, are made for Walken
And that’s just what they’ll do because
Some day…these boots…
Are gonna walk all over you.

(Does a little dance because it’s Christopher Walken and he dances in every movie he’s in. Look it up.)

I got the other one once someone explained it to me, lol. I just didn’t make the Macy Gray connection at first.
