Maybe it's a bird.
Maybe it's Maybelline
Well, it's not so easy nowadays after all the R&D that went into imitations.
Could be bamboo.
Hot damn, you actually found it
If I saw that at a store I'd 100% pick it up.
Bc the book would be made of wood? πͺ΅
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.

God damned Millenials don't even know about Crossfire and SLI smh
Hey, Iβm 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"
Definitely pick up the sequel
Do you revere wood?
Who doesnβt?
I'd love more wood definetly.
In all seriousness though itβs actually worth a read. Itβs fairly short too so itβs not a huge commitment
i do but my girlfriend definitely needs this book
sorry, cheap boomer humor. i don't even have a girlfriend.
WOMEN! AM I RIGHT GUYS???
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.
Does anyone have a pdf? I just happen to need this book.
Ask Anna!
How is that helpful?

loads for me, in the UK
Use a vpn.
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.
Check your library system, that's where I read it.
Wood you look at that.
And this is going on my grindr picture folder... can't wait to send this to Chesty Mcdickpic.
It's an older meme, but it checks out.
I want to get this book, then make a video essay on it titled "What the meme gets wrong about the meme book".
I'm in this picture and I don't like it. (As a fan of trees, why what were you thinking?)
In Anna's, thanks, likely useful...(to me), 1990.
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)
Got wood?
The best way to identify wood, is with your hands. It's easier to feel the firmness and the ridges.
Is it hard?
Then you've got wood.
I have a 9-inch specimen I need you to have a look at...
