Did Google decide to sell their domain business just because they don't wanna be left holding the bag when the .zip consequences emerge?

If you change the ?utm_source param of a social link to a swear word, will it show up in some marketing person's slide deck when they present their monthly update to their bosses?I don't know.But I might have a new hobby.

I haven't owned a console since the PS2, but we just got a Switch.My wife wasn't allowed to play games growing up so she's only just discovering them now.She's intrigued by the idea of Last of Us (not on Switch), particularly the idea of an immersive story, exploration etc (but not Zombie adjacent or overly violent).All my knowledge is 20 years out of date.Tell me what gateway drug games I should introduce her to. We just got Tears of the Kingdom, so no rush, but any suggestions that are likely to be in her burgeoning wheelhouse are gratefully accepted.:boost_ok:

a computer keyboard where all the inputs are actual locks and each character is typed by using a key from a big ring of keys attached to your belt with a retractable tether like a high-school janitor

Couple of years ago, I took my kids to the playgound at Ruffey Lake and my daughter saw these two signs on the footpath.She then went into great detail about a story idea she had about the famous detective Dogson Leash and his trusty sidekick Caution the Snake.

@geordie @urbanfuzzy yeah, there's a friend request on people's bio page. Mine's here: https://boardgamearena.com/player?id=95956819I've been playing short games - mostly Sushi Go and Solstis. But every now and again I'll play Wingspan and Ark Nova. Those tables get snapped up real quick though.

People calling themselves refugees again because they are trying a different browser. I want you to understand how luminously white I am when I say the following: Fucking. White. People.

Reminded of the old programming adage:We did not choose this path because it is easy; we chose it because we thought it would be easy.

The office is in Sydney but there's team members all over Australia. Applicants must hold Australian working rights.The details are in the job posting, but if you have any questions feel free to ask me any questions publicly or via DM.If you are not a software engineer but have some in your network, please boost for visibility! I'd love to work with cool fedi people!(If "Staff" feels a little rich for your blood, stay tuned because we are likely to have a few lower seniority generalist / full stack roles coming very soon, but also, DMs open if you wanna gut-check how just how "Staff" we mean by Staff 😁)https://jobs.lever.co/atomi/40280a7c-ac92-4977-ae1e-c14a1f7afef7#jobs #getFediHired
