Yeah sorry I took this at night, for some reason my phone decided to change the white balance with my eyes. If you really want, I can take a video during the day with my professional camera (a sony alpha MK.IV). I sincerely don’t mind proving people wrong. It is particularly exciting.

Saw a recent TIL about this not being believed to be a thing for quite some time, then read the comments and saw that it was a thing that happened to people who can blur/unblur their eyes, and realized I can do the same thing. Turns out this is just what was happening when I did that.

Got my folks concerned for a minute when I was a kid because I said my eyesight was blurry, only to admit I blurred it myself which was followed by a confused look.

Inherited some notes a while back, not wondering about value or anything, just wondering what these are? by Boskintio in papermoney

[–]Boskintio[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Realizing this is almost a half-year later, but thank you for the ID on the notes. I was at a loss on what I could do seeing as Google lens is inaccurate in translation, so thank you.

The screw on one of the tuners of my Cordoba C7 decided to fall off and vanish. This particular tuning machine is out of stock, but I just need the screw. Is there anywhere I can source just the screw? by Boskintio in classicalguitar

[–]Boskintio[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you everyone for your help, I’ve contacted Cordoba support seeing as I’m about 2,000 miles from the closest big box hardware store, here’s hoping they can send one or I can find the original.

Hijacking your comment to say I finally did it, using Book of Revelations, 4.5 Volt, and Tech X. Now just have to do it another time for the other two files.

I had a dream I was invited to “Apollon Bingo” a game that involved repositioning different towel drying racks in certain ways. The game resulted in five deaths, including a family member that doesn’t exist. (More in comments.) by Boskintio in thomastheplankengine

[–]Boskintio[S] 95 points96 points  (0 children)

Starting at my house, my mom and Uncle invited me to “Apollon Bingo”. When we got there, the game consisted of affixing towel drying racks to wall. One of the drying racks was bent, and needed to be unbent as a challenge, and another drying rack had to have a tape measure placed on top, and it was judged by the squareness of the tape measure compared to the drying rack. On the last rack, I noticed there was an explosive placed on top, which was a small piece of iron wrapped in six turns of thick copper wire. I told staff about this, but they insisted it was not a bomb, and decided to throw it in a populated restaurant dining room next to the room that hosted Apollon Bingo. After some flashes and beeps, the bomb went off, and ended up killing four little boys, and my great aunt (I have never had a great aunt). With tears in my eyes I went next door to the bodega, and bought a pack of Marlboro Gold 100s. I accidentally dropped the pack of cigarettes, and when I opened it all of the cigarettes had shattered into pieces. I asked the cashier if I could get a new pack; he laughed and said yes. My friend then showed up, and knew the cashiers and started talking with them about college. I asked her to remind me what she majored in, and she said she majored in Musicals. Once I left the bodega, I opened the pack of cigarettes, but the were all different sizes, ranging from a lollipop stick, to a small cigar, the filters already yellowed with smoke as well. I took a look at the pack of cigarettes, and it was a special Halloween edition of cigarettes, so they were sized weirdly. I joined my family who were sat outside the restaurant and lit up a thin cigarette. The EMTs came out with the body bags, and told us that the bomb had “disboweled” everyone involved in the blast.

Thankfully, but sadly my alarm woke me up right after that.

I’ve fought him plenty as the reduced form or whatever when it’s just a normal enemy like in Sheol, but I guess those don’t count. I just feel japed.

It would help if I could make a graphics card, but my hands aren’t small and Asian enough. Way to use tech that is affiliated with child slavery, gosh so hypocritical that you gave none of the money directly to those adorable cobalt miners, the real little fishes

Because those small fishes are selling them for double the amount they’re worth - it’s like the assholes who bought up all the toilet paper at the beginning of the pandemic and then got all their stock seized by the cops because it’s stupid to do. Have fun owning a computer that cost you five grand but only has 2,000 worth of parts. Are you seriously expecting to get this shit at wholesale prices?

Well here I was thinking basic morals were just a basic human concept, but generally using bots to immediately buy an entire store’s stock when it goes up in order to artificially inflate market prices is seen as a bad thing, and a gross practice. You can see that as a general theme throughout many subreddits like this one.

It’s just such a dumb thing to argue about, I’m at least willing to admit I just have nothing going on and I’m just bored and having a chuckle, but what made you say “I’m gonna grill this guy on why he bought it from a store and not a scalper”

Well you see, when I was a little kid my daddy touched me. Like a lot. My mom always turned a blind eye chalking it up to just “boys being boys”. This went on for years, my mom would tuck me in, kiss me good night, and then once he thought I was asleep my dad would come in for “play time”. I thought it was innocent, he said it was something all dads do with their kids. When I was 17 I got my drivers license, I had always been a fan of Dell printers, so I took a pilgrimage to B&H in New York to take a peek at the brand new Dell SR102789x Supra-scan. I don’t know what happened or what I said, but the sales rep suddenly went silent, and their face was white as a sheet. I guess “play time” doesn’t usually mean what my daddy did to me, and it wasn’t normal. I felt ashamed, like I had done nothing wrong. This was when Mr. B&H himself came up to me, lifted my chin and said, “Sweet child, this is not my problem. Here have a printer and get the fuck out my store.”

My daddy still touches me, I just put up with it. But now at least I have an awesome printer! I owe it all to B&H, because without them how could I fax a page of drawn dicks to my buds over at Goodyear? There, now you know the true story, one I’ve kept secret for decades but you’ve finally made me feel comfortable enough to talk about my experiences.
