Did you know that many Mastodon instances are supported by Patreon, and most are donation-supported? For example, the instance I'm on is supported by https://www.patreon.com/mstdn - I just signed up for a buck fifty a month, because servers are expensive. @stux deserves it, and this keeps us advertising-free.

@stux Some of us, in fact, do get names yelled at us in the street. It always hurts. And, sure, it might be illegal, but when it's a cop yelling it at you, what do you do?

@stux Cops are humans, and often deeply flawed humans, at that.

Okay, I've now been on here a week so here's a better #Introduction:hi! I'm coregaze. I have a name, but I only let certain people know what it is. I'm #nonbinary and I use they/them pronouns. I love my wife @abbynormative and our cat, whose name is Thursday.what do I do? I am a quite senior #systems #engineer for a #wifi company in #SanFrancisco. I was a very early hire there and I invented a lot of the technology we use. I do a lot of #mentoring in my day job.(1)

When I'm not working, I like #photography, riding #electricbikes and #electricmotorcycles and #making things; I am really pretty good at #soldering and (believe it or not) I'm a licensed HVAC technician (hey, I needed to buy some refrigerant for an experiment.) I am pretty good at #3dprinting and I like to experiment with #photonics; I have a couple of patents in that field.I read a lot, mostly #sciencefiction , often trash, but hey, it makes me happy.(2)

@Raspberry_Pi @james This is the worst possible take. Do not do this, dude.

@shibashecurity @bbcmicrobot Can it, though?It appears to have chosen Mode 7, which is a mode where graphics commands do not work.Further, it mis-spelled the COLOUR command, which does not take four arguments in BBC BASIC.Then the main drawing loop is nonsensical. Also, PLOT takes three arguments in BBC BASIC, not two, and there's no such command as DRAWTO.

@flamingspork to be fair, it wasn't the IEEE. that was the WFA, who are not a standards body but like to pretend they are.

@mjg59 but it's not *real* real mode, it's *big real mode* because obviously you want that and actually even more than that on any halfway modern CPU it's actually long big real mode

@textfiles You say it's lightly radioactive, but my other half just had a similar thing done (scintillography-directed lymph node dissection) and she was radiating about a year's background dose every two hours. Of course, a year's background dose is only about three millisieverts, which is a tiny amount in the grand scale of things, but it isn't at all surprising that portal monitors on transit might pick it up.

@textfiles my favourite Tc-99m fun fact is that hospitals get it by doing something they call "milking the moly cow".
