Maybe it's Maybelline

[–] Nanook@lemmy.zip 80 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Well, it's not so easy nowadays after all the R&D that went into imitations.

Could be bamboo.

Bc the book would be made of wood? πŸͺ΅

That card doesn't give me much hope for AI designed PCBs. At least there isn't a shortage of PCIe 1x pins though...

God damned Millenials don't even know about Crossfire and SLI smh

[–] ashughes@feddit.uk 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hey, I’m a millennial! I not only remember Crossfire and SLI, I still hold a grudge against Nvidia for killing 3dfx.

Still miss my first eBay purchase which was a voodoo2 12mb monster from late 98.

Sold an old motherboard a month earlier so it was basically free!

*knocking on it*

"Yup. It's wood aright"

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

[–] Yankee_Self_Loader@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I'd love more wood definetly.

In all seriousness though it’s actually worth a read. It’s fairly short too so it’s not a huge commitment

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

i do but my girlfriend definitely needs this book

sorry, cheap boomer humor. i don't even have a girlfriend.

[–] felixwhynot@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

WOMEN! AM I RIGHT GUYS???

[–] grue@lemmy.world -1 points 1 week ago

How is that a sequel? It's not even by the same author.

Aspen: you can tell it's an aspen because of the way that it is.

[–] alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 9 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Does anyone have a pdf? I just happen to need this book.

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 10 points 1 week ago (2 children)
[–] alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 days ago

Omg they even have some Morton and Harman! I wish they had "stones and waves" too. Thank you, I don't know how it was that I didn't know about these great people.

This site can’t be reached Check if there is a typo in annas-archive.org. DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 0 points 2 days ago

Sounds like your DNS server is filtered. Try using another server (like 9.9.9.9) in your network connection.

[–] kazerniel@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

loads for me, in the UK

[–] DavidP@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Check your library system, that's where I read it.

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago

Wood you look at that.

And this is going on my grindr picture folder... can't wait to send this to Chesty Mcdickpic.

[–] Sektor@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

It's an older meme, but it checks out.

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

I want to get this book, then make a video essay on it titled "What the meme gets wrong about the meme book".

[–] MalReynolds@piefed.social 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

In Anna's, thanks, likely useful...(to me), 1990.

[–] Sibshops@lemmy.myserv.one 3 points 1 week ago

I'm in this picture and I don't like it. (As a fan of trees, why what were you thinking?)

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I once posted this picture in response to someone here on lemmy and they responded "I've got that book right behind me." (Possibly paraphrased)

The best way to identify wood, is with your hands. It's easier to feel the firmness and the ridges.

[–] Digit@lemmy.wtf 1 points 1 week ago

Is it hard?

Then you've got wood.

[–] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago

I have a 9-inch specimen I need you to have a look at...
