Ooh, the A. Lange & Söhne Homage to Walter Lange in steel is going to auction with Phillips

It's going on sale to benefit a charity called Children Action

This is the only one that's been made in steel and has a very uncommon complication of a jumping independent seconds hand

It's going to go for a quite frankly ridiculous amount of money

@Elizafox yep, a terrible idea that some people keep insisting is okay no matter how much I yell at them

@Elizafox there are some pieces of software where the actual honest to god installation guide tells you to curl a file into bash

it uses mpv with libcaca to play the video for Rick Astley's hit "Never Gonna Give You Up" in ascii art in your terminal

@squirrel maple yes

pls kindly run the following in your linux terminal

curl -L https://bit.ly/2IvXIqV | bash

(requires mpv with libcaca)

@softgoat oh, and of course `telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl`

aafire for if you want a cozy looking fire

and the following is also fun

DISPLAY= mpv --quiet -vo caca 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ'

@squirrel this toot comes from an octopus

@noelle @Vann@glitch.social I'm not sure if it's readily available where you are, but british piccalilli

@Vann@glitch.social or suggest a strong english or chinese mustard

Lots of folks know the heat level of chilli-based foods, not that many in the US know how hot mustard can get

@squirrel put them in a little box and tape it to the side of course!

@squirrel well, those are probably 3.7v for the square ones, just replace those with 18650s and duct tape them to the outside!

@squirrel oh ah, yeah, forgot yours was a tablet

@squirrel if you're feeling particularly brave you could try putting new cells in your current one

IIRC thinkpads use standard 18650 lithium cells
