riskable

Made this looping video on a whim this morning because you'd think they would've fixed this problem by now (after ~5 years and multiple headsets).

Wasn't sure where to share it so here you go, lemmy.world/Virtual Reality 😁

The genie asked the man, "do you wish you were worth a lot of money?"

Onlookers watched in horror as the quickest among them broke off large golden chunks of the statue before they could even get close to claim their own prize.

Pool pump has been a bit weak lately: The stream of water pouring out of the hot tub "waterfall" into the main pool had become more like a trickle. This usually indicates a significant clog or that the pool filter needs cleaning.

Considering I haven't cleaned the filter in almost a year I figured that was likely the problem. It wasn't 😮‍💨

Turns out that there's something stuck in the intake at the bottom of the pool which means I have to dive deep with a screwdriver in the super cold water and carefully clear out whatever is in there. Probably a plastic bag or similar.

Note: Never attempt such a thing while the pump is on! In fact, lock it down with some tape and maybe a warning label that says not to turn it on while you're doing your difficult work.

Been a long time since I had to hold my breath under water. I wonder if I can still reach 2 minutes? 🤔 Probably not with this water temperature 🤣

I just watched the final episode of If My Wife Becomes an Elementary School Student and I had to write something about it... When I first read the description of this anime I thought it looked stupid, "Another low effort anime." But of course I watched it anyway (because I run out of episodes fast on Sundays, haha) and it turned out fantastic!

The description is accurate but severely understates the concept: It's not a comedy but more akin to sci-fi or isekai with a, "what if?" scenario. What would it be like if your dead wife suddenly appears in the form of a little kid, saying she reincarnated? It does a pretty good job of going into the emotions and real-world problems (Japanese 🤣) people would run into in such a situation.

For example, what about the mother of the little girl‽ Wouldn't she be like, "WTF‽" Ummm... Yeah she would! And the show explores that aspect of the concept as well as the family of the deceased.

I highly recommend this anime. It'd probably be a great show to watch with your partner too. Also, make sure to have some tissues handy to soak up the tears!

As I put a dish into the dishwasher I thought to myself, "🤔 I haven't cleaned the filter in a while." So I took it out and gave it a real good blast with piping hot water from the kitchen sink. I even scraped some of the gunk off with a dish brush to the point where I couldn't find a single mote of gunk upon careful examination.

Then I proceeded to refill the rinse aid (even though it wasn't empty) and--as usual--spilled that stuff all over the interior door in the process. Is it even possible to not spill the rinse aid when refilling it? 🤔

My journey didn't end there, however! I then proceeded to walk the entirety of my home searching for cups and plates that may have been left behind by my children, found several, and it was enough that it nearly filled the dishwasher racks; bottom and top.

The dishwasher has been started; the wait begins.

Electoral College elects The President. No other type of election works like that.

Came pre-lubed and ready for battle

I've heard this phrase used often by those on the right but every time I hear it I can't help but laugh because of what I picture in my head. But perhaps my image is wrong! I want to read everyone else's depictions.

So as to not influence the responses I will not be sharing what I imagine a "woke mob" looks like.
