While I’m here, I might as well share something interesting I found online…

Welcome To The Internet

Nah, don’t take me too seriously, you don’t want Jeremy to puke at all, but I’d rather him puke behind the car than inside the car…

I just mean to appreciate the randomness of life in general. If you somehow or another came and knocked on my door, I’d probably show you some interesting stuff I found online, and challenge you to try my modded Rubik’s Cube.

Of course that wouldn’t have been any of your evening plans, I really don’t know what your plans might have actually been, but I’d still be a decent host and try to be welcoming to your company.

Welcome to the club 👍

I get a drop of sweat on a digitizer touchscreen, and my day is fucked, and my paycheck is fucked.

Phones aren’t meant to be waterproof or even water resistant.

Go ahead, drop a few drops of water on your screen. It won’t work right…

Obviously, duh.

One rain drop on your phone screen, and already shit don’t work right anymore.

This message coming from a tech that has worked on thousands of mobile devices.

I dunno about everyone else, but definitely not me.

I don’t swim and I’m not prone to dropping my phone in the toilet.

Also, if you get even one drop of water on the screen, the touchscreen doesn’t even work correctly.

Electronic devices aren’t meant to get wet in the first place.

This isn’t even a thought, this is basically a fact, just not yet implemented…

Fuck their walled garden.

Thank you for the AI Disclaimer and owning up to the words it spit out, at least you’re being honest about it, and that’s respectable. 👍

My personal opinion is don’t expect anything.

You can try to plan everything out, but almost never will things go perfectly according to plans. And the more effort you put into planning, the less likely things actually go according to plan.

If you’re just trying to enjoy time with friends, then plans might as well be just suggestions, but sometimes you just gotta roll with whatever happens, and get a good laugh when Jeremy pukes behind the car LOL!

Sometimes you just gotta live in the moment…

Well, we’d have Soylent Green food bars…

I literally grew up watching Red Green, along with my dad!

“I am a man, but I can change, if I have to, I guess…”

Back in like 2008, I wrote a SB16 DOS WAV file player/driver utility, and I made a point to find out the exact BLASTER config for a default DOSBox configuration…

BLASTER=A220 I7 D1 H5 T6

I hope I’ve been of at least some sort of help, I think that H5 T6 stuff pertains to the MIDI music side of the card/emulation.

Edit: Regarding your initial question regarding missing libraries, I’d try what the other commenter suggested, install the flac and EV libraries, but my setup isn’t quite configured like yours so I can’t confirm from here.

My late father actually made something very similar, but he used a black barrel to catch more heat from the sun for warmer water, and had the upper side of the barrel cut open to catch rain water.

He also didn’t install privacy walls, it was just a cut open black barrel, bare minimum plumbing, and metal pipe and clamp framework recycled from discarded antique playground equipment or something. But still built very similarly, his plan for privacy was just to hang a tarp around it.

I don’t think he ever actually used it though, but he may have at some point, I was away for a few years…

Terraform a planet.

Not like those dead rocks out there such as Mars or the Moon though, I mean like terraform Earth.

If we can’t even manage the pollution and climate change right here on Earth, how the fuck they think they’re gonna bring dead space rocks to life?

At the current rate, wherever humans go, we’ll just bring our trashy ways with us…

Bo Burnham

Because I’m still trying to find my sanity…

If they wanna try to verify my age, they can just check the age of my Google account. I made my Google account back in 2004, my account alone is old enough to drink alcohol.

I respect the intent of ‘protect the kids’ and all, but they shouldn’t need anymore information from me, the age of my account alone proves I’m old enough. Also, I don’t have any kids.

I remind myself of… Fuck I forgot.

Nah for real though, occasionally I remind myself to not take bullshit or threats from others.

Shit, even if I post some off-the-wall words occasionally, maybe I just had a bad day, ignore my dumb shit and downvote me into oblivion.

At heart I’m actually a genuinely caring person, but sometimes we all have bad days.

I don’t give any shit, I just share my shit, like any average person.

As is appropriate for new friends, I share my shit with you 💩

How we gonna melt steel, copper, titanium, tungsten, etc?

Sadly, fossil fuels aren’t going away anytime soon. ☹️

Ban planned obsolescence and make a rigorous standard that any new device is designed repairable, reliable and long lasting enough to last at least 10 years if treated right, 20+ years for vehicles and machinery…

This whole ‘you gotta get a new thing every year’ era causes sooo much unnecessary waste and pollution ☹️
