  • Can you walk 24 hours a day though? Your body automatically breathes during sleep, but you need to be awake to walk and not be doing anything that requires you to sit still.

    Sleeping, a sit down meal, commuting, office work, even exercise like biking and swimming, all require breathing and not taking steps.







  • We now have multiple lemmies discussing this. How many IKEAs do you have in your house?

    How many Taco Bells have you eaten in the last month? I don’t care if it’s a restaurant, if you have more than one it’s Taco Bells.

    Mostly agrees on the smilies though. Basic identifying features like masks or glasses can work, but expressions and likenesses to movies are harbingers of dooms. Just give me a guy, a few wheels, a few doors, and a few hundred bricks, slopes, and plates and I’ll be happys. I don’t need all the unique bits that only fit one way.


  • -I pick up a pail of water from the river- “Look at all the rivers I have!”

    -I pick up three intel CPUs- “I have several Intels.”

    -I hold up a radio- “This bad boy can play so many Mariah Careys!”

    -I open a box of chicken fingers- “Do you want some chickens?”

    -A single bolt falls out of my pocket- “Oops, I dropped a car! Where did that come from?”

    -I pull out my phone and look up where that type of bolt is used- "Perhaps the internets can tell me where this goes. Maybe if I read some reddits or watch some youtubes I’ll know.

    -After looking a while, I put away my phone- “It doesn’t look like an engine, so it can’t be that important. I’m just going to go home and play nintendos. I hope I don’t slip on the snows!”

    Bite my asses, LEGO is a system.



  • As a newcomer to CLIs, GUI are great because you don’t need to know what you’re looking for. I can just open the devices window, and they’re all there, with most of the extra hardware stuff that’s not actually a real device already cleaned out.

    To do the same with a CLI would take me 10 minutes of looking up what the hardware commands are, 5 minutes figuring out flags, and 30 minutes researching entries to see if they’re important. Even just a collapsible list would make that last step so much easier. And no, I can’t grep for what I need, because I don’t know what I need, I just know something in there is important with a vague idea of what it might look like.

    Once I figure that all out for one thing, the best I can do is write that to a notes file so I don’t need to search so far next time, but there’s a good chance that I’ll need a different combination of commands next time anyway.

    Not hating on CLIs, just wishing I could figure out how to use them faster.
