I’m assessing whether your “guess” is wild SF-inspired imagination or grounded in anything, you know, actually factual.

You’ve answered.

Sportsmanlike behaviour in the modern age?

That IS weird! 🤣

This is “Single-Bamboo Drifting” (独竹漂), a traditional sport of the Miao peoples in Guizhou.

You stand on a broad bamboo trunk and steer/propel with a thin bamboo stick. Often combining it with complicated dance. It requires a lot more balance than I could ever have managed at any point in my life.

Judging by later messages, this is a True Believer. Which when translated to English is “idiot”.

You seem both nice and very bright.

there are a bunch of orb-like UFOs exploring our sensitive areas

I think you will find that traditionally they do anal probes for this.

Seems like military drone tests in my opinion.

Have any actual expertise to back that opinion up?

(Hint: probably not.)

What was supposed to be a simple task (modifying some code from an MCU to another MCU in the same family) is turning into a nightmare as it turns out that the “same family” can be radically different with this vendor’s products.

So … “fun”. In both the ironic and not-ironic sense.

One of my absolute favourites of all time for street food is 肉夹馍. Had it this Tuesday on the way home from work. A very close second is 煎饼. Last time I had that, though, was over a month ago.

And yet this twit is held up as an icon of management.

This would be the most recent board game I purchased. The most recent I discovered might be Splendor/Splendor Duel.

Of course what’s going to happen is that Apartheid Manchild fanbois are going to buy a Tesla, then one of these stickers to have people not urinate on their car or whatever.

Huh. It’s almost as if I already said that.

And linked to the instructions for the Model Y.

And already pointed out that they’re well-concealed which is not what you want for an emergency.

Almost.

The free speech absolutist gets upset when people don’t want to talk on his platform.

So they bought whatever “this” is while Apartheid Manchild was still in the womb?

The Manchild has never been a decent, normal human being. (The upbringing he received at the hands of his creepy father prevented that from being possible.) He was always what he is now. He just wasn’t rich enough to not care if people found out.

Worse.

They’re going to have to go to China to get the seals for those.

I mean it took a Chinese maker to get seals for one of the few remaining living people who needs an iron lung: https://www.wired.com/story/iron-lung-maker-community/

A truckload of “actual military support” that has such tight strings attached that it was basically useless except for a very fragile defensive posture.

Only this week has the USA actually finally allowed the Ukraine to go on the offensive with its kit.

Thing is, people leave and decide after a day or two they’re comfortable hanging out with Nazis, so they go back to the Nazi bar.

I genuinely think worse—far worse—of anybody with a Xhitter account, to the point of presuming that they can’t be trusted with anybody non-male and non-white. There are consequences, in the end, to supporting fascism, no matter what excuses people contrive.

The links left me more confused, not less.
