Native English speaker here. Aside from catching crap for regional accent differences, I didn’t have any noticeable, repeating problems until COVID. I can’t, for the life of me, properly pronounce comorbidity. Even when I really concentrate on it, it tends to come out as comorbibity. It really makes me sound stupid as hell.

I have a lot of experience with the regular Casio watches, and use an AE-1000W as my EDC. Build quality is excellent for the price, but the clear plastic on the front can be prone to scratching. Unless you’re an incredibly light sleeper, a watch alarm will never wake you up. Sorry I don’t have any information about this specific watch. Wrist-worn step counters have never worked that well for me since I guess I don’t move my arms when I walk. They work if I put them in my pocket, so I’ve defaulted to just using the step tracker on my phone.

Probably? But then we’re entering into the land of Effort That Isn’t Fun*. The corpses of too many of my unfinished projects litter its plains.

*For me. I’m not disparaging jigsaws.

You may have just spoken it into existence. It’s a great idea, but it’s been a bit since I looked into circuit boards with custom shapes.

I put down SparkleChicken Heavy Industries, Chief Engineer. We manufacture motorcycle parts and satellite guidance systems.

The SparkleChicken thing existed long before, but I used SCHI so many times that I designed a logo and bought the domain name. Every time I spin up a circuit board for a personal project, I get the logo silk screened on it. Been pretty fun over the years.

That was the one that got me hooked on SMBC.

It took a few years for Weird: The Al Yankovic Story to go from a fake trailer to the real deal. I have hope!
