@codewiz looks awesome! There used to be an Italian ice cream place in a small town near where I grew up.Then I about 3 years ago, I started an online university course in that same town. I visited three times per semester, always ending up having to run to the train station at the end of the day, until the last day of the spring term when I when I arranged to stay at a friend's place and managed to book a later train. I went on a 2-hour quest to find that awesome ice cream place...

@codewiz maybe the sound is to tedious to use them to cheat? (Oh, wait, they all have USB-ports now so one could just copy notes from your computer).

Sowed the first seeds for 2021 today. My 4yo was very interested and stayed with me for an hour as we filled pots with soil, watered and sprinkled various seeds.We sowed some seeds for leafy greens which we will munch on before spring, and before we need the rest of the space for other seedlings.This year I moved the grow lights from the boiler room to the garage were it's a bit cooler. Should be better for the seedlings. But I did buy a heating pad to help with germination.#gardening

@codewiz "Raising Elephants Is So Utterly Boring" seems a bit less valid after seeing this.

@codewiz whaat! I've never heard that they have to be skinny?! Apparently, they should both work (although, it never worked on my lenovo laptop). ...But that could be because they hid the sysreq key under a layer of modifiers...

@codewiz I would have gone for "GIGS Investigation, Guards & Security", but I'm not really in the biz, so what do I know.

@codewiz I don't know how things work where you live, but I'd hand it in to the police. Where I live, they will keep it for a couple of weeks. They will check if it has a registered owner, if not, they will wait to see if anyone else claims ownership. If no owner is found, they offer to re-register the bike as yours.

@codewiz I would call the station directly as it's probably not an emergency :-)

@codewiz @tagomago @PopcornWulfy @Fabimaru Could be time travelling robots, trying to blend in. Have you seen any sphere shaped holes burned into the ground?

@xkcd gotta love captchas that computers will be better at solving. But this one is for amateurs, a true mine captcha should require at least one guess click to solve.

@JoWa om inte jag minns fel så är de här reglerna ganska nya. Tidigare skulle fotgängare hålla till höger på gångbanor men det ändrades för att minska förvirringen. Tyvärr är det ju aningen förvirrande när det som är rätt plötsligt är fel. Fast även innan ändringen fanns det många som skev långa debattinlägg om hur vi skulle göra för att göra rätt även om det då var fel :eo_thinking:

@xkcd please follow up with a nerdy debate on how to interpret this comic on various levels of ignorance!

@neauoire In case there are EU folks around, I'll slip a link the EU public consultation about the ongoing work on a new seed legislation. If you dislike those proprietary seed hoggers, do fill it out :-)https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/better-regulation/have-your-say/initiatives/13083-Vaxtforokningsmaterial-och-skogsodlingsmaterial-reviderade-regler-/public-consultation_en

@codewiz I actually backed up my mastodon account just a moment ago, right before this toot :-)(honestly: I didn't, but I'll do it soon, I think, maybe...)

@EU_Commission I went for the pre-emptive choice of 29 b/c eventually this will be most correct option.
