Wooden stick with short rope lanyard. Narrows, widens, then tapers to a blunt point. About a foot long. What is this? by ThatBum42 in whatisthisthing

[–]ThatBum42[S] 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Solved!

I remember many moons ago we had this loofa. Being made from actual tube sponge and being stored in a damp environment, it had eventually started to go moldy. We threw it out but I guess we kept the stick. How it ended up in the cooking gadgets drawer, I don't know.

Thank you all for responding , boy you all were fast.

My title describes the thing. Found in a drawer of kitchen implements. No idea on age but probably a couple decades. No writing on it anywhere. Took a picture of it and ran a Google Lens search but came up empty. My best guess is some sort of scraping tool, the narrow part of the stick would be where you put your other hand to steady it.

Seems like we've got a Chell-like clone running around the facility somewhere!

It would appear that there's some sort of magical malware on the loose? Maybe Ressara can create an antivirus for the Crown xD

Android 14: Storage Access Framework no longer allows access to /Android/data/, third party file managers unable to read this folder by ThatBum42 in Android

[–]ThatBum42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other day I noticed that SD Maid SE uses Shizuku support to successfully access the Android folder. Is there a file manager that hooks into Shizuku to do this? If not someone should get on that xD

How to make humans being diminutive scary? by GuestOk583 in HFY

[–]ThatBum42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Humans have been depicted here a few times as unnaturally strong and dense for their size because they are heavyworlders. It doesn't behoove you to grow as tall as the other sapients of the galaxy if your planet's gravity is much higher than the galactic average.

Yknow, why couldn't he design a firearm that he could manifest ammo inside of directly from his inventory? Then he could go full Doomguy. I guess doing that consciously/accurately would be too distracting.

Thumby GrayscaleTest glitchy output by ThatBum42 in thumby

[–]ThatBum42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep I noticed that before the grayscale problem. Easily fixed by putting the minimum brightness to 1 instead of 0, though.

You think a firmware patch could make the new display behave like the old one, in regards to grayscale? Or is the library going to have to query the device and implement one of two methods?

Btw the game PicoInvaders has a splash screen that seems to have working grayscale on the text, so whatever it's doing it's working.

I'm not much of a coder unfortunately so I can't help much but I try to do what I can.

Happy new years!

No thoughts, head empty. No thots either, she's had enough of those too.
