@stefano One for active work, one for things to keep track of (email, chat, etc.)and honestly, sometimes a 3rd for a web browser.

@ned @missmayn@bird.makeup It would be cheaper in most cases to hire a nanny or a professor in the field of your choice, and they would make more money! Yet that's considered unthinkable to both the people who are spending more for substandard care, and for those who could freelance (most universities don't provide healthcare to the majority of their professors, I'm not sure on daycares).

@hjwp @ned My sister was paying around 3k/month for 2 kids. My father was making about $400 a week teaching graduate courses, with no benefits.Figuring both a nanny and a professor could likely take care of more than one client, it seems pretty easy to do better freelancing. *Once again, unless health insurance is involved as in the US that changes everything.

@kims They don't consider a small one-man unit to be any threat, or they'd have a tighter defense. An analysis of the plans has demonstrated a weakness, but the approach will not be easy. You are required to skim the surface to this point. The target area is only two meters wide. A precise hit and only a precise hit will set off a chain reaction. Stabilize your read deflectors. Watch for enemy ships. *with apologies to G. Lucas

@bielsubob I took an accidental 4-Hour nap this afternoon because this is the first time this had happened. Sometimes being cat furniture is the best 😄

@farah I was once part of a conversation on the bird site where someone said completely seriously that "Nobody ever reads the Atlantic or the New Yorker" and I was like, um, I do? So does pretty much everyone in my family (at least when we visit the folks since they have the subscription).

@Alice Ok but were they *good* drinks or is this more of a marketing bar exam? 😝

@BleepingComputer Gah! I use Notepad all the time just because it doesn't have any text formatting. Guess I'll have to figure out another option that my office will allow me to install 😕

@kayeluvian @herhandsmyhands 150 for a one night show is higher than any production I've been involved in. I'm not in the UK, but are your rates really that much higher?

@farah It generally starts with a petition to ask the neighbours on the street. Depending on the town rules you may need as many as 60% of them to sign something saying they'd be ok with it. Talk to your city council. There should be someone specific to the area. It's going to be harder if you're not a resident of the area, so if that's the case try to find someone who is (or if the area has neighborhood associations) to be your spokesperson.It's definitely doable, but it's not easy.

@m0xEE I've been using Betterbird for a few months now. It works on windows, android, and Linux. I think my only sadness is I cannot mark spam on android. I can move it to junk but that's it.

@futurebird @jacobyaudio I was reading an interview with Mamdami where he was commenting that the funding for a lot of these programs had already been secured years ago, just never implemented. I don't know if this is one of them, but I know they've been talking about installing public toilets in NYC since I lived there in the 90s!

@atomicpoet One of my favourite spots in Vegas is called a museum, but it's a collection of games bought, repaired, and maintained for the pleasure of anyone walking in the door.
