@androcat @aral This! I caught myself about to be that guy.

Makes you sit down and have a long hard look at yourself.

@aral this was/is one of the things about social media that we don't have a good or really any solution to yet.

I had to stop myself on twitter from wanting to know why people had blocked me, I think I'm mostly harmless, if a bit sweary.

It would be nice if one could see _why_ a block occurs or has occurred.

But then 🤷♂️

@aral Murphy?

@killyourfm Christ, please tell me that is not New Zealand pricing

@goatsarah @kincaid

look, it was late and I did say I didn't put any thought into it.

I was thinking of the ass end of Australia, but you are, rather cruelly using my own argument against me that electrons are easier to move than explody gas

I'll go back to my previous position of "I'm open to ideas, but cant' think of any" and this time not offer half ass, clearly not thought through ones :)

@goatsarah I'm open to there being uses for it, but I'm not seeing any in conventional land transport.

Trains maybe? ( no I haven't thought this through, and am likely in the pocket of big electron)

@aral what's happened?

@thomasfuchs @codinghorror @bison

ARE YOU SUGGESTING MY BLACK SITES AREN'T HUMANE?

@thomasfuchs @codinghorror @bison

oh god this, this, this.

I have been this person, and been the person crying at the end of the teams call asking people what they actually want and not to tell me to build a web representation of what they think the database table underlying the data looks like.

WHAT DO YOU NEED THIS FOR AND IT"S NOT TO SEE THE FUCKING PRIMARY ID AND LAST UPDATED TIMESTAMP.

Honestly, started drinking too young and gave up to young - I needed to have time shifted it to now

@codinghorror @thomasfuchs @bison

We all know how utterly fatal listening to users is, you end up with Homer's car - I think it was an odyssey.

People have enough trouble saying what they want, rather what they think the solution is.

IT'S ALL HORRIBLE

@evan these questions are driving me up the wall - not your fault or problem.

I have my initial thought, and then I think about counter points and then I settle on "I strong agree, disagree somewhat disagree agree." It depends and if pushed my answer would have to be "yes, get a puppy"

O_O

Thank you for making me think, I think.

@evan I think avoiding violence is a must.

Especially if you are outside of the region.

@emilygorcenski

I went to read the review, I came away wondering where the photo was taken.

Is it Brighton, UK?

Also, thank you for the review, much rather have spent my time reading your review than that book.

@dneary @peterrenshaw @evan ahhhh, but is it intentional?

@pigworker

" we try to make the safest cars in the world"

" are you going to get rid of the huge 10 inch spike in front of the passengers heads?"

" we try to make the safest cars in the world"

*cough*

@ryanhoulihan there used to be a time when the right wing in the US weren't just evil.

If there are any right wing US politicians that aren't evil and loopy runts - they don't make the news in NZ.

@ryanhoulihan the being nice or kind thing - yeah people should be nice and kind to each other.

But, if those fuckers are nasty to you, it's kinda surprising when they are upset at you being nasty back.

@doot misread as "Mastodon is crumble" 😳 and now I'm hungry.

Interim director of British Museum has suggested the Parthenon marbles could be shared with Greece.

I'm going to let them finish, but I'm not sure that's the amazing statement they think it is.

Like, we stole these from you, but we might let you have them sometimes.

😳😬🙄

@evan how do you find the app?
