how do bees keep from getting sticky?

(i should go to bed.)

@shibao@misskey.bubbletea.dev better: find a smith to decode your key then order one off ebay for $12

@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com previous tire shop tried to kill me.. they put the good tires on the front instead of the rear, so when i hydroplaned most recently she went ass-first IMMEDIATELY. lucky me i can drive backwards and managed to save it w/o leaving the road 😌

@sun@shitposter.world i thought you just opened it and set your phone down while you do other things? i didn't know it was game?

@sun@shitposter.world @arcana@fedi.layer02.net that's illegal in most places. for good reason. DO NOT give places that do that your business -- the employees won't see a dime of what is rightfully theirs.

@Snowshadow@mastodon.social i would need to know the exact OS version before i can give instructions.

but i seriously advise trying to convince her to take it to a professional. i wouldn't still be in business if i snooped around every client's computer. i also wouldn't have time for that. techs *don't* snoop around -- it's bad for business.

@shibao@misskey.bubbletea.dev codec2 should fit

@piggo@piggo.space yeah but once i move 20ft or so it corrects itself. maybe our magnetometers or gyroscopes need calibration?

@susie@blob.cat @piggo@piggo.space there are ways to, at the very least, make it not try to re-route you because it thinks you've done a u-turn (when driving i would get this A LOT in stop & go traffic in construction areas until i tweaked it)

but when walking and when this happens, if i open up my phone's stock compass & leveling tool it will have me cast the calibration spell and it pretty much clears up. when the calibration is off, the phone can't be sure which way is which when you aren't moving because there isn't enough moment-to-moment-generally-correct data to average in to something that makes sense. at higher speeds, (A)GPS/"Location Services" can make up for this enough to not notice (or to be enough to fake it).

environmental variables like temperature, barometric pressure, and your proximity to giant metal things are what it needs to calibrate against. thus the waving it around in a figure-8 (temperature changes the accelerometer's calibration), and the spinning in a circle (magnetic flux compensation in the magnetometer).

tl;dr: yes you are correct! and it can be mitigated by calibrating the joystick!

@izaya@social.shadowkat.net this describes my relationship with Dyson Sphere Program

it isn't Factorio :(

@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com @Ariri@missiletest.site @izaya@social.shadowkat.net @mori@void.lgbt @Rocc@misskey.bubbletea.dev @shibao@misskey.bubbletea.dev i wouldn't say no but bike physics (steering, gyroscopic stability) are what's the most appealing to me about riding 😌

i think my partner and its gf would really go for that sort of a setup, tho

@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com we can already more or less directly turn solid plastics in to usable fuel. it just takes about as much energy to do so as you get out. and isn't exactly "clean" by any definition including the EPA's 🤣

@kaia@brotka.st shoutouts to Mr. Hammer, his advice fixed at least one thing in my finances 😌

when the ground shifts just a bit but there's no associated sound and the birds/insects don't go quiet.

@adhdeanasl@beige.party i was more of a pond scum drinker and rusty nail chewer. it's hardly a wonder that i enjoy bourbon so much.

@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com some of us are stuck administering crap that runs on RoR.

to answer your question: no. the shit changes every other version. i gave up a decade ago.

@lain@lain.com some of the mfs on here wouldn't know responsibility even if i took it out and showed it to them before making them get on their hands and knees to beg me for it smh

@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com "if it's a young fella getting out of one of these, leave him alone -- it's his first truck. if it's an old fella, leave him alone -- he's meaner than snot on a rattlesnake"

@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com i never had that experience.

and it really pisses me off that so many got that sort of negative experience because nobody is willing to hand me wrenches and help me drink the 12-pack :\
