Get a load of this gorgeous creature — the Cobalt Qube 3 (released 2002, AMD K6-2+ processor at 450 MHz).

I upgraded the RAM from 64 MB to 512 MB (the maximum), and I've got a new IDE hard drive on the way for the OS. I thought it was going to be like one night's work to pop Linux on a drive and boot it up, but seriously, it has been one bloody thing after another with unsupported architectures, compiling kernels, upgrading 15 years' worth of Debian distros… It's taken me three weeks so far, but I've finally got the thing running Debian Wheezy (shut up, it's still supported) and talking to my network, though for some reason it refuses to co-operate with the PCI SATA controller card I put in the box.
Anyone else got one of these hushpuppies? I've been thinking of writing this all up in a proper blog post if anyone still cares about this hardware.

One of my favorite movies, if you don't mind a silent film. There are so many great images, it's hard to know where to start with a movie poster (especially if you're going to try and outdo the original). I think the blue one has my vote, though. The image of that inhumane, exhausting job has haunted me since I was a teenager. twitter.com/41Strange/status/9…

Bad Rabbi
This has to be one of my favorite books this year. I mean look at it, how can you not.

This is pretty good. It happens every now and then that someone says, "I only have one book" (i.e. the Bible), or that they write more than they read, or worst of all that they choose not to read at all. And it makes my skin crawl. There's a real contempt for reading as if "books" are out to get you, or a complete lack of interest as if books are only for homework.
To be honest it's hard to believe Kanye West can be that good of a musician if his brain is so starved of ideas, but I'm prepared to believe people who say he's great. It wouldn't be the first time a musician has been a musical genius but a little bit thick otherwise.
♲ @🌠 (chosafine@instance.business): this is the best Kanye take I think

I'll never not reblog cool clocks. Give 'em to me. I require ALL the clocks.

If you sneeze like a mouse having an orgasm, you really need to evaluate the path your life has taken to bring you to this point.

Also, how did you tag my post? I didn't know you could tag other users' posts.

Ach, sorry. I'd have done a content warning but I'm not sure how to do those on Friendica. Is there a BBCode tag I can use?

All it does is scream, the whole movie. mulligrubs.me/photos/stjohn/im…

Oh my god, how great is this movie — "Basket Case" (1982). The acting is terrible, but ye gods I love it. mulligrubs.me/photos/stjohn/im…

Ah well, that's nothing new. Here, have a lobster playing the harmonica:

Filthy, ain't it?

Apparently not! C'mon, hit me with your rhythm stick.

Oh hello, this sounds juicy! What language does "chupa" have a sexual meaning in? It's a Spanish invention, apparently, so if you speak Spanish then it must have been a deliberate branding choice. Not that it would be the first time lollipops were used as a double entendre, but still :P

I mean the logo was designed by Salvador Dalí. What more do you want I ask.

Do people not have Chupa Chups in America? The SCANDAL! They are the greatest achievement of human civilization.

Just ordered a two-pound bag of Chupa Chups for all of $10 because the Boy's never had them before. We spent a whole 20 minutes just giggling about the name because I suddenly realized it sounds like the most ridiculously stupid Australian name for anything ever. "Aw yeahhh, give us some bloody Chupa Chups mate I'm gagging for a Chupa Chup."
For anyone doing the maths, two pounds is 72 Chupa Chups.
