IT/AV guy who predates the internet and grew up with technology (for better *and* worse, lol).
Fair warning: I post *extremely* infrequently because I am a curmudgeon (love that word), an atheist & certified Internet Hermit!

Also, I swear. Like, a lot.
...says who? As long as you clean and dry it you'll be fine! 🤣

Weed dealers; not even once! 🤣

Been there, too! In college no less. I learned a valuable lesson: if your roommate's a known weed dealer with a nasty coke habit, you can *probably* expect a visit from someone with a gun.
It was oddly hysterical because the guy was like a 300 pound lineman and the pistol was a *tiny* 32 revolver!

lol, he was fuckin' spot-on about the FN Five-seveN. Even the name is cringe-worthy!

Ronin was feckin' brilliant so I will take this to heart!

Hmm. Searched YT using the name, but the results are confusing at best. Was he mostly a 4chan guy?

Dude, I'd have moved there YEARS ago if it weren't for the winter weather. It's bad enough for me here in upstate NY!
January 15, 2026 at 2:18 AM
I will!
It's all a work in progress; if I've missed your posts it's just that The ALGORITHM hadn't surfaced them on my feed. Still, it reminds me that I should be doing more topic searching...

Lol, somebody needs reread the chapter on conservation of momentum in their physics textbook 🤣

Hickok45 is good dude, as are the Garand Thumb guys and Forgotten Weapons dudes.
But let's be honest, they pale in comparison to "Jonathan Ferguson, Keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries Museum" 😆

And this little lady is Maggie; she's less than half Tyger's size but feisty as heck:

The striped kitten (top) grew to become this handsome gentleman who I named Tyger because I'm *terrible* at names:

Two months later she blessed us with these two:

Jesus H. Christ, why can't these people just get a hobby or join a gym?
January 15, 2026 at 1:11 AM
I did not, but now I do! Sounds like an awesome thing to do. ☺️

I came here for the cats, and I only stay here because of them, the cool science people and the sci-fi folks

TRY HARDER, Chuck. I'm not going to vote for you again if you can't effectively DO anything.
Instead, I'll be looking for a Mamdani-like challenger to primary you.

Sorry, but LOL 😆😆😆🤣

"Min-maxing Comes to Long Term Storage," read now on @wired.com

(not a real article of course 😁)

I'll be doing the same; this intolerant asshole is welcome to take their shitty behavior to X, where (I'm sure) they'll find sympathy from the Edgelord himself
January 15, 2026 at 12:27 AM
Yeah, I think it literally happened *while I was posting,* lol!

Done. It's piss-easy if you have their handle, so here:
