I was planning to have a nice, relaxing, do-nothing weekend, because the next week is going to be stressfull.

This is the weekend two different building companies found two different unexploded WWII era Bombs in the ground.

The first was defused yesterday, and just messed up my shopping, because it closed down the supermarket. My pantry is looking pretty sad.

But today, the area is actually evacuated, because the bomb less then 100 metres away from my house needs to be detonated. I know it's a controlled explosion, but I'm still somewhat worried. I already spent a good chunk of yesterday evening calming down a panicking neighbour.

Things missing from the item I got from wish today? A charging port. How the hell am I going to make this thing work?

I know, I know, Wish always has crap, and they were cheap as poo poo so whatever (a FWP in a FWP, why do I continue to buy bluetooth headphones when I already have my bodyweight in them), but where is the charging port for gently caress's sake

Oh, and this gets a rather FWPy resolution, the thing doesn't use a usb (ir micro USB, or mini USB, or Super Ultra Megazord USB port). no. It uses it's own unique type of port. Not a huge thing, but of course. Watch, when it's fully charged it prolly has lasers in them when fully powered.

Unrelated, the pace at which they’re revealing stuff for the upcoming Total War: Warhammer 3 is not fast enough for me.
You guys, they announced they’re adding Cathay as a playable army. Cathay! GW has made not so much as a single miniature for them before they blew up the world it takes place in, and this year we get to see them! All the shiny new Kislev stuff is cool, but where’s Cathay?!

I am mildly frustrated that all the consumer goods I want to waste my money on are now sold like exclusive concert tickets

Literally every item on my want list would require trawling discords or following the right tweeter idiot to maybe get an idea of when they might be available and then sitting around a computer hitting f5 to hopefully beat scalper bots

I also think this is permanent - retailers finally got just-in-time demand to match just-in-time logistics

Dunno if it helps helps or not but drones are cheap as poo poo nowadays. I got one last year from Walmart for :20bux: and one from Amazon with a 2k camera for like 50 bucks.

Fancy drones are like 5k, but cheap fun ones are fairly cheap.

I watched a stream on Twitch of random Japanese PSX games being played. One was a pet simulator for cats and there were all these photographs of cats used in the menu backgrounds. I thought about the age of the game, then about how those cats are all gone now, and I had to get away from the computer and lay down because I couldn't stop crying.

Working with the SBA is frustrating. They'll send you a request for info and then close your case 24 hours later if they don't hear from you. Meanwhile, they take a minimum of a week to return a call or email. And they act real put out to do even that much.

Good: Getting asked to housesit for a friend for a week while the family goes out of town.

Bad: Her teenage kids want to stay home once they found out the trip was some camping scenic thing and not a theme park. Now I'm their auntie so it's not like they are strangers, but I will be at work all day and want some nice time to unwind.

Worse: one kid is going for half the week (then parents will drive her back down home, then head back out again to finish the vacation), and I would tell them to loving forget it because I did not sign up for loving watching and entertaining teenagers, but the vacation starts tomorrow. Now I'm pissed because the one teen who will be staying home the entire time always pushes his limits with everything, and now I have to plan for meals, when my original idea was to just buy a pizza or two and have that last me the week.

Thanks, I'm flattered.
Why is it still impossible to just stop by a store to buy a PS5? Also, why are so many people even interested in buying a PS5? I am a huge gamer nerd and have owned just about every single video game system released the past 25 years and I hardly see the need to get one at the moment. Guess I can just be happy that this is forcing me to wait for a PS5 slim or Pro version down the road.

i'm looking at doctors in my area and almost every one of them has an extremely terrible website. some of them are almost unreadable, like white text on a light blue background. i feel like maybe i shouldn't have to highlight the text on a website to be able to read it :pwn:
