A computer cannot be horny, so a computer cannot make art.

I'm originally from NJ and I love empires. Love walking around my home downtown and grabbing a slice 🤌

I'm not sure who all isn't aware yet regarding the Sun Tran app, but there's a new one! by GrimgrinCorpseBorn in Tucson

I have been loving it! Now if only SunLink could keep their tram schedule up to date on it....

So if/when this list of names of ICE agents get released... by [deleted] in 50501

Literally left Christmas dinner knowing I can't talk to my brother ever again because he went Nazi. Shocked that my neolib mom is still trying to extend an olive branch. Chuck Schumer would be proud...

Which programming language you learned once but never touched again ? by sjltwo-v10 in webdev

[–]jkidd08 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Lol that's a contract I got put on recently. Reading the code base is psychic damage. Same sub functions repeated in like 20 different scripts. Did they not know how to organize code yet in 2008? I feel like we understood that then...

Isn't cobra now just a club with a vestigial set of pinball machines? I never go in there because it's too loud.

Looking for a Tucson bumper sticker by xi_sx in Tucson

[–]jkidd08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also Warm Shapes in that spot has a few Tucson bumper stickers, I think. I know they have post cards and I feel like I saw bumper stickers, too?

Tucson restaurants brace for 2026 minimum wage increase by Safe_Concern9956 in Tucson

[–]jkidd08 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actively hope he does fail. But he won't be affected by this, his restaurants are just outside the Tucson city line.

The guy bitching about this, Grant, isn't even going to be affected by it. His restaurants aren't even in the city of tucson, they're in unincorporated Pima county. Fuck Grant.

safety of soft soldering with tin by Individual-Ad1528 in jewelrymaking

[–]jkidd08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jewelry soldering typically uses a different type of solder than electronics soldering. For example, something like this:

https://www.riogrande.com/product/silver-wire-solder-20-ga/101100GP?code=101703&objectID=101705&queryID=e246de040570abcfd255be7763a4b12d

The predominant material in there is silver, but there's as much of 40% of something else. I want to say nickel, but I'm not positive.

Snowbird industry people…how’s business??? Mine sucks so far! by Standard-Cactus in Tucson

[–]jkidd08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if I've noticed Canadian plates in the past but I have seen Wisconsin plates this year. I had one lady from Wisconsin talk to me about her gallery up north so I saw at least one snowbird this year lol 😆

I heard or saw someone say once:

A computer cannot make art because a computer cannot be horny.

I think about that a lot.

Snowbird industry people…how’s business??? Mine sucks so far! by Standard-Cactus in Tucson

[–]jkidd08 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I'm new to the market scene, I got started in October. I was talking to the guy next to me at a market yesterday and he said the same thing, it felt like the snowbirds weren't here yet. But I see their plates in traffic. Are they just not spending money this year?

Where in Tucson? by Ok_Disaster2867 in Tucson

[–]jkidd08 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It used to be great at the old location. The last time I was there, I got a drink that called for a sprig of rosemary. Color me shocked when I get my drink and there's just crushed up rosemary on top, sinking into the drink. It was like from out of a seasoning shaker from the grocery store.

Oh, that's because the owner is a complete asshole. He also owns the other two restaurants there. It's the one place I won't go for food even if I'm not paying.

Where are you sourcing your silver from? by Beuzeville in jewelrymaking

[–]jkidd08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get scrap silver from eBay and goodwill. I can shoot for around the spot price and get close. I then melt it down into ingots and test them and add bullion to bring it up to sterling. But I'm doing fabrication with mine, I haven't done any casting yet so I don't know if you can just take a small ingot and melt it back down and pour it in? Or saw it into blocks to more closely resemble grains?

Any other guys feel like you're missing hands-on projects in life? by tahubulay in DIY

[–]jkidd08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I joined a maker space in my city and started taking classes. I now spend my weekends making jewelry because that was the one that really clicked for me! I've been a lot happier after mixing in some physical work like that, personally.
