Progenitor of the Weird Knife Wednesday feature column. Is “column” the right word? Anyway, apparently I also coined the Very Specific Object nomenclature now sporadically used in the 3D printing community. Yeah, that was me. This must be how Cory Doctorow feels all the time these days.
I guess this follows the canon, but it still bugs me that Yor’s kunai-knitting-needle things have big old thumb rings in them but you never see her depicted with her thumbs through them.
I guess it’s still better than running around holding an entire katana in your teeth…
I’ve successfully driven my clapped out pickup through water deep enough to reach the door sills without incident. It also spent several years parked in a bush before I revived it and put it back on the road.
It has roughly 200,000 miles on it and even the OEM wheel bearings are still good.
Elmo’s stupid toy truck is never even going to come close.
Finally, a viable use case for that bar.
This may in fact not be completely outside of the realm of possibility for someone who has no idea how to actually operate his computer, which is most people. The notion that things can be deleted, not to mention when they should be deleted or when they should not be deleted, and the fact that on most modern systems they aren’t actually deleted when you hit “delete” and instead go to some manner of purgatory elsewhere on your drive where they’re still accessible in full (recycle bin/trash) regularly eludes the majority of computer users.
The problem is, the defendant’s excuse could be explained by him being a moron from multiple avenues, so we’ll never know if he’s inept (as in can’t delete files) or inept (as in so stupid he things everyone else is as stupid as he is in order to believe his dumb excuse).
