yep, it’s wood
Hot damn, you actually found it
If I saw that at a store I’d 100% pick it up.
That card doesn’t give me much hope for AI designed PCBs. At least there isn’t a shortage of PCIe 1x pins though…
I hate to break it to ya, but that pictures from like 2010. And those are SLI connectors.

Bc the book would be made of wood? 🪵
*knocking on it*
“Yup. It’s wood aright”
Ocean-going sailor here. Some people might be surprised how often some people have trouble avoiding huge ships. These days, we have modern systems such as AIS, Doppler radar, proximity alarms, and all can be integrated into autopilot. Yet there are still so many stories of near-misses with tankers, freighters, and container ships.
There’s probably some simple trick they are missing. I never have any trouble getting hit by big ships, and I never even learned how to sail.
Step 1: don’t go on the ocean.
They are going so much faster than they seem to be going. And they’re YUGE
This is actually a very significant factor. The guideline is that an ocean freighter spotted on the horizon will be on you in five minutes (guideline, we know the math doesn’t exactly check out). That doesn’t leave a lot of margin for being away from the helm or distracted while on watch.
Yes but how just overlap is there between people who read books and have trouble a avoiding huge ships
My mind just played out a little skit.
in a library
Librarian is standing at the front desk, doing front desk things. A man enters, driipping wet, comic injuries such as a black eye, fake bandages etc, kelp draped around him. He walks in, looks at librarian meaningfully, stalks off into the library without a word. Stalks back up to the front desk, and presents this book and a library card.
Meanwhile, I’m a sky-going pilot and I’ve never had much of a problem avoiding airliners. We’ve got these really cool guys called air traffic controllers that help us out with that. I love those guys, they do a great job.
if only the iceberg had this back in 1912
That book is hilariously expensive now. Check eBay or Amazon, $150+.

How is that a sequel? It’s not even by the same author.
No. 1. The Larch
Aspen: you can tell it’s an aspen because of the way that it is.
It’s an older meme, but it checks out.
And this is going on my grindr picture folder… can’t wait to send this to Chesty Mcdickpic.
I want to get this book, then make a video essay on it titled “What the meme gets wrong about the meme book”.
Wood you look at that.
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)
In Anna’s, thanks, likely useful…(to me), 1990.
