the term "gaydar" is a useful but is a simplification. there is actually a quite sophisticated homosensor suite in use. the sj radar is a 10-cm band set used for range and direction finding of surface gays. the sd radar is a 2-meter band omnidirectional set that provides early warning of aerial gays. the qc/jk sonar set incorporates both active "ping" capabilities as well as passive directional hydrophones, for detecting both surfaced or submerged lesbians.

Stop for a moment and imagine how shocking it would have been, only ten years ago, even during Trump's first term, to consider a time like today when the public presumption immediately following any announcement from any Executive agency—FAA, CDC, EPA, the Pentagon, NOAA, any DoJ office—is that every word is an outright lie

@boud @vex no vibe-coding needed.

If you have a very resource-constrained environment, especially in a situation where your hardware setup is not consistent across different locations, it is really really easy to make a small change that seems like it should be entirely fine, but it causes just enough additional memory to be needed for operation that it causes instability in some systems.

I've been there.

So uh... All the laywers and governments and government agencies and schools that use Google suite? Yikes. 😬 I have used Google as a lawyer (before the rise of AI, but was using MS Office after that, so...). In all the emails from the law society warning us of phishing and scams, I don't recall ever being warned that our office programs were a giant liability! #LawFedi #lawyerlife
One more reason I'm so glad to be taking a break.

@TheBreadmonkey
Why, what'd ya do this time? 😜

This shot of St Catherine's Lighthouse was taken last night by my husband.
