Monsters from the Id! Fish from the Wardrobe! Or something. (TTRPG/Coding/Linux/Politics/Snark/Woo/ASD, in no particular order.) Boosts are almost certainly an endorsement of *something*. Possibly not _literally_ the post in question, though.

Last Notes npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe ideally i'd like all of Linux to be free of slop. but here's the thing about the #Debian decision: it's effectively exactly the same rule as is in use by the kernel project. So if you're now thinking of moving away from Debian, but not the linux kernel, you're not being consistent. looks like NetBSD has pledged to be "Al"-free. Or there's Haiku. or stay on linux and use Debian if you want to, and *hope* they will curate a distro that's at least free of the _worst_ of slop. npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @nprofile…w0mx @nprofile…ywuf my crude understanding is that a helmet is designed to save you in one specific circumstance that is very unlikely to come up in a cycle to the shops, but if you are racing and it does come up, you *really* need a helmet. npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @nprofile…65q8 is the office door significantly less than two minutes away? i mean, if you're getting up, might as well go to the office cafe — unless you don't like the coffee? npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @nprofile…65q8 deliver to their desk? that would be a new one. it's just as likely that they prefer the taste. (no, starbucks does not _objectively_ taste worse; taste is subjective, not objective, and in any case most people are drinking warm coffee milkshakes, me included, so the quality of the coffee is somewhat moot.) npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @nprofile…heqq @nprofile…z68c i find them. and it's a lot safer this way. but. but. npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @nprofile…z68c okay, tearing up at this. i'm a straight cis bloke. But i'm autistic, a lefty, and i'm weird. all my life i've tried to look as normal as possible, so that no-one would look at me twice. Maybe that's not the way. npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @nprofile…qp30 thankfully i don't have a condition that puts me in constant pain, because while I'm okay with pain meds, what I really hate is when you take them for a few days then stop. gentle, slight happy feeling … then gone. ooof. npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @nprofile…rh2x or a sign that looks as if it might be to the police, which includes the guy in a "plastecine action" teeshirt. npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @nprofile…60lz "still"or "steel"? should the whisky industry be worried? npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @nprofile…mtwn So *that's* what they sound like. Damn good! npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @nprofile…g4tp well said npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @nprofile…23jl there's a point at the start of any job where I have *all* the social anxiety but also I'm miserable because I'm not being any use to anyone. I find it gets better once I'm actually of use. Here's hoping you find your niche in the whole pointless grind thing… npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @nprofile…23jl For brand new cars I personally worry about a new criteria: enshitification. eg: A colleague's car steered him into a ditch because it decided he was driving over a (non-existant) white line. npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @nprofile…23jl it's when you write fiction and include a coded/disguised version of yourself specifically to do All The Things You Wish You Could Do. Nothing wrong with that unless you pretend you didn't do it 'cos it can be a dull read for others. If there's one character who's impossibly talented and loves all the hotties and rights all the wrongs, then chances are it's a Mary-Sue. Of course if you are a goddess trapped in non-corporeal form, who would blame you? npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @npub15zu…s7lx Also: when he was a child *nobody* had Sky? Because it wasn't a thing yet? npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @npub198t…hasj Although it's fine to laugh at both parties, I think. npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @npub1jc0…sldg The word in the Cat Community is clearly getting out: go to Garius' house if you are in trouble 🤍 npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @npub1yvr…mjkg Well, technically. Every UK submarine can, but they are *boats* npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @npub1jc0…sldg Breifly tried this but I felt that it wasn't a wargame or even a miniatures-collecting game. More like an argument over whether the rule from my book or the rule from their book took precedence. npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @npub1yvr…mjkg People have enough trouble understanding me. What chance have programs? npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @npub1yvr…mjkg So they're saying that based on what is being said in the podcast, they can tell what sort of person is listening. Right. npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @npub15zu…s7lx This is true, but does not explain the business with the energy companies npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @npub1jc0…sldg ✅ npub1vyc2wkfg7repn8v929xxp33rs3ezxrlv4eywt9wth93sj47d0hdslu69dk ⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe @npub1lzz…jhl3 This must be close to the stupidest timeline. How many people actually believed that? Where in history did we take a wrong turn, that anyone did? She should have been laughed out of the room.
