I needed ddr3 for my NAS this weekend was happily surprised when I saw the price.

No one played a character you love to hate as well as Louise Fletcher

Kai Wynn comes in 2nd.

They way they marketed their VPN early on was the first thing I thing. The VPN seemed great but the marketing felt like virtue signalling, I don’t really remember the specifics so it could have been a me thing. Then the news broke they turned over user data to authorities. I kind of expected it but they pushed the fact that they were in Switzerland like it made them more shielded from that (again kind of a marketing distaste). Then this year there was them accidentally funding a french far right youtuber. A small enough thing to have been a mistake, but also it piles on to the bad feelings.

So it’s not antagonism, but it’s an ick.

I’ve used fastmail since I de-googled during lockdown.

Proton has always giving me the ick, but at this point I think 99% of it is Yen.

I always have oatmeal, plain cheerios, and oat milk handy.

If I had enough hair to do that, I wouldn’t need a hat.

Europe got potatoes from what’s currently mainly Peru.

I can touch Cornelius for the price of a Big Mac in Connecticut!?!

xkcd also happened to release a comic about a “vulnerability in the number 3” the same day the eMudhra news broke.

I never thought I’d laugh at memes about the number 4. When I wished on that ancient monkey paw to be smarter than most people, just it just make others dumber?

Every two years since (at least) 1980. 22 times, by my count, if you don’t count 2026 early voting.

After WWIII, the writings of Richard Stallman became the guiding principles of computing.

Friends of my mom were planning to do RV life for a year or two (while wait-listed for a retirement community) but they decided to rent one for long vacation to be sure. The husband bought the powerbank while it was having a sale, sure they were going to buy an RV as soon as they got back. By the time their vacation was over they vowed to never set foot in an RV again, and he sold the powerbank and AC to me for $400 less than he paid for it. He also hadn’t accounted for the Delta Pro being 100lbs, and they had trouble getting it up and down steps.

Yes. you need a grounding adaptor, though.
