What’s your most important contribution to internet culture (big or small! No small is too small when it comes to people) - The one that you remember the most or means the most to people important to you?

"It is, of course, an extraordinarily effective estrogenic agent, but that is the least of the problem. It is hypergolic with every known patient*, and so rapidly hypergolic that no induction period has ever been measured. It is also hypergolic with such things as syringes, examination tables, cotton wool, and nursing staff..."

Reviewers noted that while Vim for Gameboy featured one of the deepest command systems on the platform, its soundtrack consisted primarily prolonged silence punctuated with occasional terrifying beeps.

@foone Ahh! a little hunting online shows all

Thirty years. 1996 to 2026.

Please don’t ask whose it was.

90% legacy spaghetti code, an underfunded documentation team and all releases have weird bespoke hardware.

I give you the human body.

Awww. My older sis moved to this quieter town and had been enjoying the quiet but wondered what the hell the pumphouse was. Every night the fricken pumphouse sound at all ungodly hours all through the night. midnight, 2am, 4am, middle of the morning the frickin' pumphouse.

It's her heartbeat.

@Theosoreass good drugs gave me an adamantium skeleton. I am now wolverine :D.

them: feminising HRT will turn your skeleton to chalk! you'll crumble to dust!

me age 55, reading my bone density report...

T-score: +2.0 (2 standard deviations over the average healthy young adult)

skeleton: would you like to hear about my diversified hydroxyapatite investment portfolio?

AND after half a year on a notoriously bone-lossy GnRH inhibitor.

PowerPC 601.

Want that starburst colour/shape/pattern on my bass.

What is the platonic ideal of an IC package? or an SMT component?

The ideal LED shape? Those most True and Correct LCD elements?

I KNOW YOU ALL HAVE OPINIONS

The mastodon guide to coffee:

"Would you like to... come up for coffee"

"Is this a euphemism for physical intimacy, in that case yes. If it's coffee? .... honestly also yes. If there's a surprise third option, what the hell, yes"

Awww she kissed me six times last night - she must really need the practice! I bet she’s working up to admitting her feelings for someone she really likes and wants to make sure everything goes right - she’s such a sweetie… I hope it works out for her!

fyi ADHD people yes you, having coffee at 11pm because it helps you sleep. THAT IS NOT HOW IT WORKS FOR OTHER PEOPLE.

11pm: "hey I had a nice date, wanna come up for coffee?" is the most obvious clear euphemism because it's CLEARLY NOT ABOUT COFFEE. COFFEE WILL NOT BE INVOLVED.

Unless you have ADHD, so you think "Oh that's a nice comedown beverage, but I have some at home!"

While moving, I found a bottle of soy sauce probably there from when I moved in 15 years ago at the back of a kitchen cupboard.

Tipped it out and in the bottom of the bottle were little rocks - salt crystals. They're beautiful - and they taste amazing.

@siracusa crud! I was going to post a measurement too but forgot. The one that looks like a cube is about 7mm on its longest side - a quarter inch, ish.

Soy sauce generated salt crystals sitting on an iPhone torchlight.

IHDVGA (Inconveniently High Density VGA) extension lead.

IHDVGA was abandoned early on as keeping pins straight turned out more difficult than expected.

Most manufacturers still turned a profit by selling the leads without shells as convenent groundable wire brushes.
