chuymatt@startrek.websiteto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•What sort of grill needs a firmware update lolEnglish9·4 days agoAs someone in the PNW, there is not much you can do if you don’t bring the dang thing indoors that won’t leave the thing a pile of rust in 5 years.
I am trying with a specific form of stainless to see if it makes a difference.
Does anyone know if this would be Steam VR compatible?
chuymatt@startrek.websiteto science@lemmy.world•Glass bottles found to contain more microplastics than plastic bottlesEnglish22·20 days agoYou make a lot of them. They are flat. They get painted, they get punched out, (this is where the ‘magic’ happens) they get shuffled around to load into machines to put them on the bottles, they go through the machine and they get clamped to the bottles.
There! Instant plastics!
chuymatt@startrek.websiteto Europe@feddit.org•NATO demands more than 5% of GDP for defense instead of dialogueEnglish3·21 days agoOh, up front costs are less, long term costs would be much more.
chuymatt@startrek.websiteto Europe@feddit.org•NATO demands more than 5% of GDP for defense instead of dialogueEnglish18·21 days agoNot really. Putin’s negotiations have consistently been in bad faith and leads to more aggression.
While I would love for actual diplomacy to work, it seems to be viewed as weakness by folks like him.
Man, I wish talking would work.
chuymatt@startrek.websiteto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•A Completely Natural Conversation in the NYC RedditEnglish111·24 days agoDepending on the situation/ location, it is truly possible. During massively busy times, I have employed these services. It absolutely can be a big process, especially with younger children and 2 jobs.
chuymatt@startrek.websiteto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Roommate refuses to use my body wash cause it's not "manly"English3·1 month agoI may or may not have found that women hugged me longer and smelled my hair if I used something the smelled good. I also used conditioner with my long hair and had many women running their fingers through it.
It was nice. Short hair is so much easier, though.
The sad, grey, little trees.
chuymatt@startrek.websiteto Games@lemmy.world•Bungie appears to have extensively plagiarized an artist's work in their extraction shooter "Marathon" according to this Bluesky postEnglish2·2 months agoI just wish they would revamp it with a modern engine and smooth out the story a little. I’d pay for that again. I bought the original as a freaking preorder back in the 90s (loved that box) and just adored it.
chuymatt@startrek.websiteto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Is 33 cents a small amount of money?English1·4 months agoOh, you know: Tomato tmahto, potato criptofacism.

chuymatt@startrek.websiteto World News@lemmy.world•Zelensky ordered to leave White House without signing minerals deal after Oval Office clash with TrumpEnglish5·4 months agoAll of Putins homes. All at once.
Weird story time: My great grandfather was obviously the source of the autism in our family line. Man could not read social subtext to save his life. He felt driven to find some sort to group to belong to that had set meetings and such. For a 5 year span, he joined, like, everyone. Elks, masons, you name it. When we were helping him clean out his house in the early 90s we found a KKK uniform. We asked about it. Apparently it was billed as a men’s group and they just had costumes made. He went along with it for a few meeting and then the extracurriculars were discussed at his last meeting. He finally got the point of it. He got out. We had his calendar book from that year(and every year from the 30s-retirement) and we saw the date where he started crossing out the KKK meeting times.
Why he kept it? It was the best work his wife had ever done.
Several years later I asked my grandfather if his dad was racist. Basically, he said that his dad had gotten in trouble for not understanding the racist, unwritten policies he was supposed to enforce and kept asking why, as there was no logic to them.
chuymatt@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•In 2025, People Will Try Living in This Underwater HabitatEnglish9·6 months agoOoh. Dunno about the adaptation side of things. I will say that I read the damned thing all in one night. Had to stay home from classes after doing so. Good book, to say the least.
chuymatt@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Apple CEO Tim Cook Donating $1 Million to Trump's Inaugural FundEnglish4·6 months agoI think they are buying carve outs for the tariffs
chuymatt@startrek.websiteto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•I'm pretty sure all of us have given up on any boomer giving us anything anywayEnglish2·7 months agoYah! Refocus!
I should have caught that part. I was weirded out by the oddly human mouth features.
