@tokyo_0 I've been using Perl and PowerShell scripts for platform compatibility. Is that something you can consider doing? (Of course I'm speaking without knowing anything about what you have to do...)

JFC. I'm so glad I don't (have to) use Windows 11.

@tk I'd be happy to write anything on his gravestone! When is the celeb... funeral?

@tokyo_0 That must be what I've just read. I obviously misread it for 13 months instead of 23.

@tokyo_0 If the rate of inflation is 5 percent or more now, it's certainly not reflected on the incomes over there. I've just read that the net income of the Japanese has been down for 13 consecutive months...

@tokyo_0 Sadly, $13 USD for coffee, a BLT and a piece of cake would be increadibly cheap in Seattle. I had a single-patty cheeseburger at Five Guys today, and it was $12 after tax. 😅

@tokyo_0 Unless it's a super severe headache, in which case I may see a doctor, I usually just eat food easy to digest (e.g. chicken noodle soup), drink lots of water and some orange juice, and get as much sleep as I can.

@tk Probably. I've lived in the US for over 30 years, and that's one of the few American things that I still don't understand. 😆

@tk I've always been a fan of straight-sixes. One of my first cars, the Datsun 280ZX, had one. I've also owned three 3-series BMWs (E36 328i, E36 M3 and E46 M3), which are all powered by straight-sixes. Silky-smooth motors. I've never understood the appeal of a V8.

Good-bye, Comcast. Hello $150 a month.

@tk @glitter @cycling@gup.pe @mastobikes @biketooter Nice! 👍

@tk You're right. Looks like it's cables and end devices that matter rather than the connectors themselves.

"Various USB standards, including USB 3.2 and USB4, also use the USB-C connector type, and these cables and ports are cross-compatible with Thunderbolt™ 4. When devices with different capabilities are connected, the connection will only support the lowest common data rate. For example, you can plug a USB 3.2 cable into a Thunderbolt™ 4 port, and the port will negotiate data, power, and video signal capabilities with the connected device at a USB 3.2 level."

@tk Does a USB 3 port support Thunderbolt, to begin with?

@tokyo_0 @ArtBear @mxk @downey I've finally caught up. So what we're really talking about is "silenced" (or muted?) accounts, whose posts you don't see directly but will still appear on your timeline if boosted by someone you follow. OTOH, if you block a user, then the posts by that blocked account will NOT show up on your timeline no matter what. Am I getting it right?

One of the "less desireable" cycle racks at Town & Country in Shoreline, WA.

@tokyo_0 @downey Some people are also defending this. #smh

My new HP 325 keyboard. It's desigined for #ChomeOS and has all the OS-specific keys. Very useful for ChromeOS users.

@seachanger I just hope Meta adds the ActivityPub support so I can (re)connect with people who left Twitter/X and joined Threads but not the existing Fediverse servers.

Burien City Council swept a homeless encampment without providing any shelters, and now try to prevent a CHURCH from hosting its own safe haven. Wow. How inhumane can humans be?

I find it ridiculous that the board for a public TRANSIT allows non-tansit users to be its members.
