I'm totally stealing that next time I cry

"It's raining"
"We're inside"
"Shut up and just look at all this condensation"

 

It is freezing here this morning. I'm off to find a blanket to wrap up in

My cat only does that when she demands i get up and feed her.

Ever hear of the cat intelligence test?

How does your cat wake you up in the morning?

low intelligence -- sits in a corner and meows loudly

medium intelligence -- sits on your head and purrs

high intelligence -- starts coffee brewing

 

Is there a way to get HF to link to the worker site seems to be less captcha there

 

Not without editing the code. Whenever kad updates MTS it should have that changed though.

I'd chime in with "Who would buy such a cheap, gaudy-looking keyboard anyway?", but I'm sure I'd offend someone lol.

A slight tangent, but:

This is the kind of thing that makes me tell people: Don't buy electronics on eBay.

eBay is notorious for very convincing-looking counterfeit electronics, shady products, used products sold as new, etc. So even if you buy "name brand" on eBay, you could still end up with something like this.

The only type of item you should buy on eBay is the type of item you can confirm 100% as "working as intended" the very moment you open the box. Like buying a Nerf gun for your kid that shoots a dart just fine. Or buying a chair or desk. Maybe a phone case, which you can tell with certainty is "working as intended" the moment you put it on your phone. Etc.

 

Good morning Turkerland!



@GreenMachine842 I have no words for how sweet that post is.
And congratulations on your gorgeous little boy and your expanded family!

It feels so good to hear all of these kind and thoughtful words being poured into an internet forum first thing in the morning. Truly. It's a rare thing for a spot on the web to be so loving, and sweet, and supportive - and I feel very fortunate to have found myself here. You all are the best.

 

You realize that the way this driver works it would have worked on OSX as well right? The main thing is that nobody gives a shit for OSX so there isn't a driver for it.

 

You realize my thought none of that entered my thought process whatsoever and instead I my sole thought was if you would respond to a low effort troll?

I probably just missed a few pins while responding though so I played myself as well

 

Initially read this as "played with myself" and thought "damn, TMI".
