      The.. Coleco kind? 🤣

  2. I could really go for an Eastern European buffet right now.

      My Uncle was once asked to leave such an establishment. His ability to consume food is truly the stuff of legend. 

       

      Coincidentally, he also has issues with what passes for the Mafia around here (though not specifically the Albanians)...

      Oh you're Creamhoven's nephew? 🤯

      I suppose that may be possible, but my Uncle is probably less literate than Creamhoven. His formal education ceased somewhere about grade 6 when it became "too hard" for him. 

  3. Having been one of them myself (and some likely still think I am), I find it best to just not interact with abrasive people at all.

      You are right, they just create unnecessary friction. We need more bald people.

      I'm bald and I approve this message.  That being said, you're my favorite simian commenter @Cebus Capucinis :)

  4. There are two things I hate: people who are intolerant of other cultures, and the Dutch.

      Now now. Just because Elon Musk is Dutch doesn't mean they're all like that.

      There's also the fun game of making people confuse the Dutch and the Danish.  Few things are more enjoyable than getting someone to say something like, "you know, the Dutch - they're from Denmark!"

  5. Unfortunately, it appears that the "What have you been up to lately with your Cybiko" thread was an utter flop.

      Highly underrated devices and mind blowing tech for the time (especially for the price).  I have two Xtremes and found slightly smaller gum stick batteries that work perfect. Big homebrew scene when they were new, but nothing these days.

      I know someone who had a pair of these set up to act as remote monitors and controls for a laser cutter.  This was back in 2014 or so; I'll ask him about them next time I see him.

  6. Tomorrow's menu: Pinoy Spaghetti!

      @x=usr(1536) for me it was Blackberry Enterprise Server that I had to deal with.

      John Romero convinced me to buy a Blackberry, which cost me a job at Apple. Seems very weird to me that I'm not making this up.

       

    4. x=usr(1536)

      x=usr(1536)

      @thanatos: that was it!  BES.  God, what a hunk of crap.  Positively hated it.  It barely worked when it did, and when it broke it broke in obtuse ways, as you discovered.  Kinda like the handsets.  "Why does my phone dial 911 regardless of the number I try to call?" was a support request we received that ended up being referred to Blackberry's level 9000 support.  Their final response: "yeah, it shouldn't be doing that.  Huh."

       

      More fun & games ensued after they agreed to replace the phone if we provided it to them for forensic examination.  Just send it back to them (in Canada) at our cost and in 15-20 business days, we'll get a refurb unit as a replacement.  Any customs fees, etc. were our responsibility.

       

      I just issued the user a different phone and told Blackberry that if they wanted it, they could send a prepaid return shipping label along with the brand-new phone that they were going to overnight to us.  A week later, they did just that, but man did they fight it tooth & nail in the interim by just being cheap about it.  Go team Blackberry!

  12. Ordering a Coleco Chameleon!

      Coleco-leco-leco-leco-leco Chameleon!

      It's vaporware! Was never there!

  13. I'm pooping constantly. Not because I have diarrhea but because they installed industrial strength toilets.

      the next evolutionary step is for the toilet to take care of the poop before it even comes out!

      @digdugnate: isn't that technically an enema?

      i'm not sure i want an enema toilet, lol

       

      talk about being an enema of the state!

  15. WHOA. I bet you if Warner didn't buy Atari, they would of been smart enough to say yes to the NES and the crash wouldn't of happened. MIND BLOWN 

  16. Made a Cheesecake Factory Mango Cheesecake (mango filling, coconut macaroon crust, and key lime glaze)! An island adventure in your mouth!

  17. It's amazing that sliced bread sells so well. Unsliced bread came out first, after all.

      Is it selling that well, or is it fanboys who hoard sliced bread? 🤔

    3. x=usr(1536)

      x=usr(1536)

      Penicillin collectors are what's seriously driving up prices.  They keep buying the unsliced stuff, let it sit around for a couple of weeks, then flip it on eBay for ridiculous amounts.  What they're doing to the hobby is just awful.

      It reminds me it was long ago that I burned some floppy disks.

  21. Put up the mister system on the patio yesterday. Ahhh, now down to a delightful 83ish.

    1. Corby

      Corby

      Never played a "mister system"! . I'm sure "mastering" it  on a patio on a delightful 83degree day must be fun! *trying not to laugh* 

    2. ClassicGMR

      Just wait. You'll be dying for 83ish in a few weeks. 🤣

    3. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      You mean 83 degrees??? Holy Cow!!

       

      Today I had to run the AC and roll down windows in the truck, cuz the sun was way too hot...It was 51 degrees!!   To be fair the high earlier in the day was 64.

       

      I'm hoping the snow is over,...Gonna switch from pants back to shorts tomorrow.  It's supposed to be 67 degrees!

  22. We have a pair of nighthawks with a baby roosting in our backyard. So cool to sit out at night and listen to them!

  23. Hahaha,,,very droll

      And now...A discussion around it...

  24. Mountain Dew Hard Cider? Tell me you're 12 without telling me you're 12.

  25. Just ate at Taco Bell, looks like the toilet will be experiencing a Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly....

      Looks like it's a bad day for the toilet to quit taking your crap.
