@GossiTheDog you mean tariffs are working! Everyone will buy a CyberTruck now, right?

@kibcol1049 The Afghan cricket team is hosted by India and comprises of mostly expat Afghans! It is a silver lining for the struggling people of that country! Taliban would be happy to stand them in a line and chop their heads off! So yeah, English and Aussie cricket boards are doing what most Western govts. do… showboating!

@GossiTheDog couldn’t be worse than their CEO asking advertisers to “f*** off” publicly and then name dropping some of their biggest advertisers!

@GossiTheDog you are hoping for customers to push back??? Baa haa haa… most customers install these on the behest of stupid compliance consultants and auditors who don’t know anything about security or computers!!! For everyone it is a checkbox exercise because some client wanted some checkbox on some compliance and the auditor made them do it!!! Good luck!

@cstross related - this #commitstrip comic cracks me up everytime! https://www.commitstrip.com/en/2017/06/07/ai-inside/

@Gargron Pausing integration or deleting content doesn't mean it isn't a part of training data already. Sleazebags!

@hello

The beauty of democracy is it is very hard to kill! #elections #india

@killyourfm well, two episodes in I agree! 🫣

@killyourfm that may have pushed me over 🤣🫣

@killyourfm I am bit of a sucker for all things Star Trek so I gobbled it all up! That said I couldn’t care for yet another subscription service! So I’ll wait for it to come to Netflix. I absolutely loved Ansel Mount as captain (in the Discovery season)! Might just get the DVD releases of strange new worlds and hack them up!

@killyourfm i am not following the series after they yanked it from Netflix, did they can the series or killed him off (it’s okay to not reveal spoilers)

@killyourfm boo… they ended the series…

This is a brilliant #caturday picture I forgot to post! #Phoebe was being an absolute silly-bean on the stairs! #CatsOfMastodon

@BethanyBlack youch! Standing instruction at home is, when anything sharp is falling get bodily parts out of the way in a hurry. Goes against our instincts, so harder to implement than lay out…
Also, that painless phase is a facade! Keep the paracetamols handy!

@BethanyBlack ah! No, I was half joking, because I had just muted someone earlier in the day! I totally agree with you on blocking people. Life’s too short!

@BethanyBlack does muting count as “more” understanding (than blocking)? Asking for a friend 🙈! Happy New Year 🎉

@BethanyBlack it doesn’t age with oneself… loved it when I was younger, bit of a cringe now 😆

@BethanyBlack that is truly telling isn’t it 🫣🫣🫣

@BethanyBlack 😬

@thomasfuchs i thought chrome was a fork of Mozilla’s engine, which Safari (also?) contributes to, no?
