@EdS @timlocke @Datassette_User Fascinating! I always wondered why REXX ended up on the Amiga.

@todayilearned ... and then he asked, "say, is anyone hungry?", ordered nine pizzas and then fell asleep.

@todayilearned I think I’d rather gnaw my own leg off than listen to an Ayn Rand Christmas special.

The right's weird obsession with toilets continues unabated.The most baffling thing about this is that more or less every public building in England ~already has~ gender-segregated toilets.It's almost like Badenoch is just stoking the culture wars to keep her name in the headlines and shore up her position for a post-GE leadership bid. But that would be desperately cynical, wouldn't it?https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/article/2024/may/06/gender-specific-toilets-to-be-required-in-non-residential-buildings-in-england

@mos_8502 a nice example of this came up over here in the UK a couple of years ago. A chap who runs a relatively small but well-loved YouTube channel where he “Fixes Stuff” had a house fire. He lost everything. The very next day, there was a fundraiser going, starting in his Patreon community but quickly spreading throughout the UK retro community. In a few days, it raised enough money to get him back on his feet.

@futurebird >I assumed it was supposed to be fun and since it was horrible I was bad it whatever it was.Oh good grief, so much this. I absolutely *sucked* at all of those teenage rites of passage, without exception. I thought I was just hopelessly defective and inadequate.The whole "no, you're not defective, you're autistic" thing didn't come along until last year.

@astronomerritt There is a certain breed of older generations of Brits who still think that food which actually tastes good is suspiciously effete and somehow letting the side down.

Let's try something. I'm an English technology lawyer in private practice. I can help with tech contracts, software licensing (including FOSS), SaaS and the like, and data protection.Unlike most lawyers I'm actually technically literate, in that I spent a number of years as a sysadmin before becoming a lawyer, and I've kept up my knowledge since.I'm practical, quick, and my rates are reasonable. Maybe I could be useful to your business?Boosts appreciated!#GetFediHired

@futurebird My wife and I met because a friend of hers arranged for her to stay with a friend of mine for a wedding. We met, she thought I was kind of annoying, and now it's 20 plus years and two kids ...

Does anyone know of a good FOSS application for logging attendance at a location? i.e. People can log when they arrive at a place and when they leave?

@fesshole Can’t imagine she felt great about it. Walking into a meeting and finding it has three of your exes in it as well as the person you’re currently dating must be … something.

X is where you find the people who think they run the Internet.Bluesky is where you find the people who think they ought to run the Internet.Mastodon is where you find the people who actually do run the Internet, and kind of wish they didn't.(WIth apologies to Yes, Minister)

@historyofpunkrock it’s a toss up between the Levellers’ Levelling The Land, The Manics’ The Holy Bible, and Suede’s Dog Man Star. Can’t choose between them.

@taylorlorenz It's like the difference between a town and a shopping mall.
