Well, that's new - some glue spilled over the side when I was gluing together a 3D print a while ago, and it seems to have... stolen the pigment from the plastic???
The glue (after peeling it off) now has a bluish tint, and the plastic has lost some of its color saturation in the exact spot of the glue, and I'm certain that there's no glue left on it

did you know there’s a secret delicious and easy #gravy recipe that’s used by 40% of police? just search for “police 40 percent” to find it 😋

Wordy(ish) request for music download sites for anime themes and similar
Does anyone have recommendations for places I might be able to buy mp3s or etc. especially of Japanese pop and anime theme songs? Ideally with older and newer songs (Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles through Frieren range). Ideally searchable in English and Japanese.
(Reason for asking: My daughter has a 4+ hour playlist/passion project on Spotify--yes, we know--that I need to recreate for our old iPod so they can close their account.)
Many thanks in advance and apologies if I don't reply aside from liking (I try to reply to everyone, but sometimes requests for advice or etc. get overwhelming). Please know I appreciate you greatly regardless! 🥰🎶

Okay this is pretty hilarious, a Dutch soda brand (Hero) recalled their apple juice because it contained caffeine
That just sounds like a product idea to me
Turns out the <10 EUR tiny battery-powered dremel I got from AliExpress is actually a very capable engraver! Just engraved some tiny cursive text on a random USB A socket I had laying around, and it was quite easy to make it look nice
@Lunaphied @gsuberland@chaos.social Honestly there's no excuse for the one-hose monsters being so dominant here anyway, there's no reason you can't make a two-hose portable unit
subtoot of a bunch of things
It's... interesting how some people choose to focus entirely on the hypothetical possibility of false accusations, while actively ignoring the very real and tangle harms that actually take place

I was reading an article and I only noticed halfway that the latex didn’t render because I was rendering it in my head
@gsuberland@chaos.social Ah, sounds like the same "airconditioners are wasteful luxury" culture as in NL...

@adam Oh yeah, that instance has been blocked here for quite some time now because of exactly this sort of behaviour. And I agree that he knew exactly what he was doing.
The reason I found that one specific excerpt notable is mainly because this would be obvious evidence of bad faith *even to someone unfamiliar with spotting bad faith*. Whereas the rest does require some knowledge of common patterns and tactics.

@laalsaas Unfortunately that looks like it's going to be unobtainium here without going through a very expensive importer (which definitely isn't worth it)

fedi meta, ranty, the things I wish I could say
- That news is not "too important for a content warning".
- AI is not a replacement for good alt text.
- Your personal beef should not be a public event.
- An dozen extra hashtags won't help your visibility.
- The numbers don't matter. No, not even those.
- Nazis won't help grow the network, even if they're popular.
- Being weird is not the same as being bad.
- People are complex. You can't (usually) judge someone's entire moral character from just a screenshots.
- Accusations aren't proof, explanations aren't apologies.
- Popular users aren't above moderation.
- The block button is always justified, and no word is too sanctified for a personal mute. No one is entitled to your attention.
- Free speech doesn't apply on social media.
I wish fedi would stop turning into Twitter.
