I have a friend that is always trying to convince me to join the local makerspace, but they don’t understand that means I would then also have to leave my house and look like an idiot in front of strangers.
It would probably save me a lot of money, but… Now I own a desktop CNC. It’s still in the box, but I own one!
Someone in the meeting was like “Okay, but what if the purchaser is a sugar daddy? Or they are buying goods to a blind shipper to evade export bans?”
And that’s likely how “Technically correct, but kind of annoying Terry” got his hyper-specific nickname.
“Systematically building electronics laboratory.”
That’s so much nicer than saying I’m constantly trying and failing at my hobbies as I realize how little I know and how ill prepared I am for my ambitions.
Mine says “Owns a cat” and “Has a dog”
Which is wrong because it’s two cats and two dogs, but also I feel they are making value judgments about the pets. Isn’t the trope that you own dogs and have cats?
Joke’s on you: my opinions are just as bad.
Ah. This is a simulation.

The freeway used in the matrix movie was built on a former military base in California.
A few years ago, I thought a freeway near me was the filming location, so I looked it up. In hindsight it makes sense that shutting down a major highway for filming and crashing cars into real infrastructure isn’t as advisable as just making a fake.
