I hadn’t heard of this before either, but after seeing the Wikipedia article, I’m not sure if this is correct, but I’d summarize it as the activity of fidgeting.

I got myself free API access to openweathermap.org and added it to Home Assistant. You can create some nice dashboard items from the data from it.
The simple answer would be just to click “instances” at the bottom of any lemmy page to view the list of other instances the one you’re on is federated with. Most instances have both a linked list and blocked list on that page.
311·1 year agoOn the technicians line of an electronics manufacturing facility, had a new hire come in on his first day. He was friendly. So much so that he wanted to use my workstation to log into his Yahoo mail and show me some pictures some female sent him. He calls up the photos and it’s full nudity real big on my computer monitor. I tell him “dude, we can’t have porn at work, close that out.” He panics and turns off the monitor. At some point I have to turn the monitor and close out of the browser, when no one is looking.
He was showing a pretty inattentiveness to his first day on the job training just not seeming to want to have anything to do that’s any kind of actual work.
Before the lunch break, he announced that he’s going to the restroom, then is never seen again. All I could tell the supervisor was that he said he was going to the restroom hours ago then haven’t seen him since.
There was also the forgotten format, D-VHS which was a specialized VHS tape tape which the recordings could be at 720p or 1080i resolutions. Or the same resolution as DVD but at a higher bitrate so there are less noticeable digital compression artifacts than DVD. The introduction of HD-DVD and Blu-ray disc formats kept the D-VHS format from ever becoming widely adopted.
Liar.
Well, that makes it true then.
Around age 3, riding my tricycle on the sidewalk around the side of the house, asking my mom or dad, “when will I become a grown-up?”

116°F driving through Arizona in July 2007, could’ve been worse if it wasn’t a dry heat. (46.7°C)
10°F Central Texas Feb 2021, had no power, so had no running heater at home. (-12°C)
I’ll give it a photo of myself from 10 years ago so that my coworkers don’t realize that I’m getting old.
