multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Pros/cons to legalize marijuana in a countryEnglish21·22 days agoBackground: I haven’t used weed in decades, I have no personal interest in its legal status.
I can’t think of a single bad thing that has happened. People are more open about smoking, you can smell it in the street sometimes. I live in a tourist destination, there are ads everywhere for dispensaries. I assume getting high is at least part of the attraction for visitors.
Also, I assume it has had a negative effect on illegal drugs - why bother? - but I wouldn’t know anyway.
Yes, I supported it at the time, have not changed my view.
She knows it, too. She usually does her best “Oh, do you like me?” look, like this, when she catches you looking at her.
She really likes boxes, too…

multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Musk wants to leave politics because he’s tired of ‘attacks’ from the left: reportEnglish3·1 month agoExcellent, please do, Elon. Arguably he has never been in politics, he just bought off Trump to get a job.
multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldto Casual Conversation @lemm.ee•What's something you love the smell of?English5·2 months agoCoffee. Fresh roasted coffee smells heavenly.
multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldOPto You Should Know@lemmy.world•The Complete List of Elon Musk CompaniesEnglish103·3 months agoSure enough. Thanks, the source is reputable enough, but I should have checked it anyway.

Chicken vegetable stir fry. I’ve had the ingredients prepped for a couple days now. It was pretty good.
multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldto Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•Replaced the battery on my wireless headset this eveningEnglish2·3 months agoThank you for reminding me: I have an electric shaver that is perfectly good except the batteries do not hold a charge.
Being able to do this kind of repair will save you money in the long run, as well as keeping stuff out of the waste stream.
multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldOPto Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•I got my new router working.English1·3 months agoI was surprised by the speed increase as well. I assumed that broadband would be the bottleneck, but apparently not.
multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldOPto Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•I got my new router working.English1·3 months agoI have not tried either, but since you point it out, I think I will install the adguard…
multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldOPto Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•I got my new router working.English1·3 months agoIt’s not even reinstalled, it’s purpose built for it: https://openwrt.org/toh/openwrt/one
multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldOPto Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•I got my new router working.English2·3 months agoI’ve always thought that kind of router seems cool, but I am more of a portable circular saw kevel woodworker.
multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldOPto Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•I got my new router working.English1·3 months agoExcellent so far. It took me a while to set up, I had to start over from scratch once. They claim it is “brick proof” and I can bear witness. Performance, as I said, is excellent.
multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldOPto Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•I got my new router working.English6·3 months agoYes, all that. The password manager is not going to do anything for one’s Nintendo Switch, however.
multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Disregarding "the American dream" what's some stuff about America that still makes you proud?English61·3 months agoI agree, the majority of Americans are decent, not racist or various forms of genophobic, and resisting as best they can. The government and media has merged into a monster. ii looks huge and scary; that’s by design. If you give up hope, they have won.
multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldOPto Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•Trimmed my nails today. They were really dirty.English1·3 months agoI have a pretty good set of electronics tools. I used to use the flush side cutters. Someone bought me a gift of fancy German nail cutters , they look like the electronics tools, but are curved to do better on nails. No brand markings on them, but they are the best.
multicolorKnight@lemmy.worldto Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•How are you organizing your spare cable drawer?English2·3 months agoI used to have a big plastic tub that I just tossed all the cables into. After a few years, it was literally all one piece; no matter where you pulled, the entire thing would come out. It took 5 minutes of untangling to get anything out. My brother called it an abomination.
I bag each type separately, as you do. I have fewer audio cables, so they are also bagged in the same bin, quarter and eighth inch phone cables separately. No Apple stuff. Extras like DE9 serial and MIDI cables. IEC power cables are in the bin, extension cords coiled, hanging from the basement ceiling.
I have two cats. They have taught me: “you do you”:
Lizzie sweeps the floor around the food bowls with her paws after eating. One can’t be too neat.
Emma collects little rugs and rags at her favorite scratching pad. I really can’t think of a motive for this.
