PRONOUNS ARE BACK, BABY
@BadSingleton @Kingu The way I see it, even if it's a very general unreasonable statement on its face, the fact you need to know if someone is Muslim and observing Ramadan limits its scope to your own friends who you would know both of those things about them.
For example, this broad statement doesn't affect me at all because I don't personally frequent any Ramadan-observing Muslim, and I can't assume for anyone else, no matter how sympathetic I am with the people choosing this self-inflicted ordeal.
Hakeem, my old rep, wants to bury the hatchet with the pedophile ring.
Ohhhh, this sucks. This sucks bad.
One of the load-bearing UI features making Mastodon usable is the little "eye" in the corner. It unrolls all CWs in a thread at once. Coulda called attention to itself better, but it's critical.

Mastodon 5 it's just gone. No replacement. I wanted to link this thread I wrote on Bluesky, but like, I'm gonna have to explain to the Bluesky users how to unroll the posts and attachments. Can't just say "click eyeball"
Ho wow.
De fin Aout à fin Octobre, on a hébergé une étudiante japonaise. Ça c'est bien passé toussa. Elle est ensuite partie dans une autre famille.
Le centre franco-japonais nous propose de prendre dans la foulée une autre étudiante qui est déjà sur place mais dans une famille ou ça se passe mal.
On rempile pour 2 mois donc jusqu'à fin décembre. Et là, on reçoit un nouveau mail du centre qui demande si on accepte do garder l'étudiante jusqu'à fin Mai tellement elle se sent mieux.

It’s wild that just the thumbnail alone can tell you it’s vibe-coded.
Elon Musk moved SpaceX to red Texas. Now it's blue. What happens next?
"Data centers in space looking pretty appealing right now."

@arstechnica
In addition to the governor, Dems elected a number of other statewide office holders.
@ai6yr My life has been filled with bad dentists.
Hoping the new one works out for you.
@EugestShirley Sorry to hear that! I hope so. The new dentist is my son's age, lol, was an Eagle Scout (his dad is also a dentist in the practice... has been my spouse's dentist for 30 years or so lol)
wow what the fuck every version of this video I find is unplayable
Okay found one semi tolerable
For folks in or around Ōtautahi this coming weekend - we're running another InstallFest - helping people move off Big Tech to take back control of their tech (and their lives!)... We're meeting at Shirley Library (at the Palms) from 13:00 on Sunday, 8 Nov. Here's the event description: https://events.installfest.nz/events/03c735e4-19d2-415e-8139-1caccbda6823
@lightweight
HI Dave, I signed up using the no Mobilizon option - should I just turn up on the day or is there a confirmation email I should look out for?
@alisynthesis gimme a sec, I need to find you something 😋
bought this riding skirt ~4y ago to go under my thick black medieval woollen cape (can't find a decent picture)
It's not pure wool, but a mixed fabric, but feels awesome nonetheless

I drive so little, the auto battery was dead this morning when I had to go to a dentist appt, lol. (new dentist, unfortunately, not within cycling distance, but going with their track record here vs. distance away) #BikeTooter
@ai6yr On the Toy? Do you garage it or leave it outside? If outside putting solar panel on roof to maintain/trickle charge might not be bad idea. When I was fighting w health issues and just didn't have energy to drive unless had to, had my partner drive my car to work once a week. Even when they worked close enough to bike. There are also lot of battery disconnects you can buy manual or even bluetooth. I put manual one on previous car.
I will be very curious to see how the tech CEOs who abased themselves before Trump over the last two years behave in this new political climate.

It was. And they’ve also erased its generated disclosures.

@TheBreadmonkey This is why I wear cat ears on the job.
It's also why when somebody just says "Hello" on Teams, I answer with "meow?"
Yeah that's right kid. Back in the day I had a hard drive that was on /dev/hda1
Not even /dev/sda1 I said hda that's right
I remember those days
Grub???? I used LILO
Installed Slackware from a box of floppies on a spare 486
@cwebber I had a couple of boxes that I couldn't lilo, so I was running loadlin
