ovulation has got to be the closest thing to being in heat imaginable I’ve edged so much over the past three days that I just broke my rechargeable vibrator she gave up on me 💔

WHAT IS SHE READING WHAT IS THAT

My sensitive and disabled ass when someone says “I’m older then you and have dealt with that thing more times than you, but I’ve never had that reaction”

I would very much like to infoblast about Raven Beak's powersuit upgrade library with all the optimizations, QoL tweaks, security features, and the myriad integration systems Samus is currently lacking with her babby suit, but alas. Time restrictions.

Only peripherally following the whole cybertruck thing but loving the comments on mkbhd's new short about the mass recall

My tv has been acting weird and I don't like it. First it wouldnt recognize the Switch. Then I switched the cable from hdmi 2 to hdmi 1 and it works. And plug the other device from hdmi 1 into 2 and it also works. But now when the Switch is off it removes the hdmi 1 shortcut from the menu. Which it usually does when there is nothing attached to it but it has never done that before over the Switch in sleepmode. Ugh.

why do people who have stupid issues with their products always come in on a Sunday. Choose one of the quieter days please.

Have you ever wondered how tech technicians recover data from faulty flash and memory whose data cannot be recovered by normal methods.

Humans entering space and realizing we are so small. We are mice compared to these giant races with their advanced machinery and technologies and experiences beyond us- except that we're humans. And our engineers dive into the new tech and once we learn the principles we also soon realize how Inefficient everything is. Their "microchips" are the size of cars, their storage drives are basically buildings, and they somehow store less data than ours. So, human companies take advantage, and tech starts rolling out. Massive and there's a lot of wasted space so that it can be managed with larger hands/pincers/claws/tentacles, but also so much more efficient than anything the galaxy has seen before.

Human technicians start hopping ships and upkeeping the general maintenance, the stuff that most aliens put off or don't notice because they never access the crevices of their ships. As human companies become more popular and lead the tech world in everything from warp cores to game stations ("it's so compact! How are the graphics so good?" Says a 60' tall grimbleback, holding a new VR headset that has all of its components included because it's so BIG by our tech standards), soon many things have accessibility ports for humans to be able to use as well. This means that these shiprats hoping ship to ship cause such a huge improvement in everything running smoothly, and there's a huge downtick in pests on ships because those "pests" are not only big enough and aggressive enough to bite a pitbull or a person in half, they're invasive to so many planets and humans hate nothing more than dog killing planet overrunning monsters.

All the while, from the Aliens perspective, humans are an elusive race that don't fraternize much with them. You almost never see a human as most places aren't exactly safe for the little things to run around in. They do export so much stuff though, and the custodial staff at the Central Galactic Outpost insists that there's more humans around than any other race if you just know where to look.

And sure it's somewhat known that some of the little daredevils hop ships and help out in exchange for room and board, usually without permission, but that can't be that common, can it?

Maybe your ship is running better this cycle ever since you stopped at the last station, that just means that tuneup was better than you thought. And maybe for some reason that program you were working on last night is finished when you wake up, but you're so tired maybe you finished it before you passed out. Somehow that faulty light in the galley has fixed itself as well, which is odd, but maybe the Engineer finally got to it. You'd know if there was someone else on your ship.

Right?

... You leave a little bowl of berries out as a thank you, just in case. You're not sure what humans like but you've heard they have a sweet tooth.

also i have to now try and sleep with:

my window open. no electricity= no fan and it is hot. window open and all the dogs in the neighbourhood are barking so much

no music :( cannot risk draining my phone and my alarm not going off

so not only is this weird sleeping conditions. the sounds are disruptive. and i can hear my tinnitus 😠

you can say that your favorite mass effect character is the one who was kidnapped by the government to experiment on their telekinetic power and who was then tortured and used as a guinea pig, implanted with faulty tech that made people go crazy and develop tumors, tortured by an alien race who attempted genocide against their race just a couple of years earlier and who then had to kill a teacher in self defense because said teacher was torturing them based on his own racial bias and half the fandom wouldn't even know you're talking about kaidan alenko

my scanner crashed after i just finished scanning 24 pages this is so sick and twisted

so you’re saying half the world was shut down by too many companies using 1 single company’s software so that when it pushed out a faulty update it shut everything down bc of a monopoly. and the update was shoddy because the company, much like a lot of tech companies, tried to replace human workers with bullshit generative AI
