Google is useless any more.

Can anybody recommend a niceish sit-down restaurant in or around Nepean?

Love it!
There was one year, we watched the world cup via a telnet-ascii-video feed at my office.

So how's this work with promiscuous SSH access? Does your server just accept any SSH key presented? Was that something you can configure, or is it custom code?

@neil
Not self-hosted, but solutions have been proposed.

We’ve strayed so far from our roots.

Computers were invented by a gay man, mostly for killing nazis better.

Software engineering was codified mostly by women, mostly for yeeting cis men into space.

More nazi killing and cisdude yeeting, please.

I would love to understand the strong correlation/pipeline/whatever between "no politics" fossbros and mask-off Nazis.
Software freedom looks, on the surface, like a good and prosocial thing, but so many of its proponents are chuds, apologists, or outright bad guys.
Why? What broke?

@inthehands @KimPerales
The amount of sensitive US data being moved to charmingly secured private servers has to have every foreign intelligence service salivating.
Best case, the DOGE machines are administered by enthusiastic amateurs; worst case, directly by Grok.

Bird people, please learn me a thing!
Last year, we had a bird build their nest behind our house number thing (it tilts away from the wall).
Now there seems to be a bird sniffing around it again; anyway, there's a bird who fucks off in a hurry when we open the front door.
Should I take out last year's nest? It's pretty gross and poop-caked, but maybe this year's bird could benefit from it?

In grade 10 math, I could roaming-peck 135wpm. My teacher could only homerow 85wpm so he sent me to the office for lying about my speed before he actually tested me, because my poor technique made my results obviously impossible.

@GreenSkyOverMe
That’s “monthly active users”, it’s one of the metrics they use to sell ads and to valuate a corporate social media company.

I think fediverse already has "made it", for what that means to me.
I log in every day and see interesting posts, abject silliness, tech and political news, tits. I've made personal connections, friends even. I've helped fund my survival and helped other people fund theirs, and I've seen and shared uncountable pet pictures.
Fuck more do you want? What does MAU mean to you, personally?

@cwebber
Vape a beverage, for sure.
I read about a thing a while back in California and NY where "oxygen bars" would serve a shot of booze vaporised into a stream of oxygen. Doctors and lawmakers were horrified and it didn't last long past the first few articles about it.

@odoben
I don't want Mozilla to "process" my data at all. The browser should be a tool that I use to interact with web sites and services. At no point after I download the broswer does Mozilla need to be involved.

Sync is different, whatever other services they offer, then it makes sense to require an agreement. Then Moz has legitimate cause and consent to process data on my behalf.

But basic browsing? There is no way Mozilla should ever see any of my data, let alone "process" it.

@Fragglemuppet
The fediverse can be good that way.
Do you know about @GIFS_of_Puppets?

@privateger
Sign me up for the nonbinary-affirming hrt that has me grow tentacles.

@FlashMobOfOne
Omg, I didn't know about toy Aussies! Omg omg omg!

@fritzoids @cavyherd
I need to carry a spritz bottle of Bitrex.
Beautiful thing is, we can fuck up the whole room with it -- and not bother anyone who is properly masked.

Is there a facebook-style Fedi platform that is lightweight and LAMP based? I have family on fb that I'd like to entice away, so the interface should be familiar for them. I have LAMP hosting space already, so I want one that's php+MySQL.

Not made or favoured by Nazis, please.

@evan
Recent Canadian history suggests a federal leader is good for about 8 years, tops.

@selzero
In another timeline, Morello transitioned as a teen, found peace, and wrote some gentle folk songs.

Bright blessings for the December solstice, friends.
If you're currently in the cold and dark I hope the light finds you soon, and if you're currently in summer I hope it's lovely.
