@coolandnormal Go to enough Python developer conferences, and you learn both how to pick locks, and the brewing of beer with the finer nuances of yeasts.

We moved into new office space, sat down at my station and noticed a drawer. It was locked. Wandered over to the receptionist with the number from the front of it asked for the key… which was nowhere to be found.

"Welp, time to wield some skills I don't at work, normally" and I pulled out my Covert Companion pick set.

@dansup @pixelfed Curious idea: e-mail bridge. Reply to a notification to respond to it. I use Mailgun for this in my own apps, but it’s hardly free.

@eniko "Skin cancer ain't a problem, why do I need sunscreen?"

"Asbestos is an incredibly practical, fire-safe material; let's go back to building sheds out of sheets of it, please!"

"CFCs are way more effective, why the hell does the government say I can't use them?"

…
People are idiots.
Maliciously so.
Selfishly so.

So many of the loudest do so "for the sake of the children", so… why the hell don't they think a viable future is worth it, for the children?

Short-sighted cretins.

@evacide I'm frequently reminded of Dunbar's number. "Social media" has consumed most of that limited capacity of our brains, with connections to people you've never met in person, but still allocate brain-space for.

Relatives are a social circle that's real. Friends from school are a real social circle. My mother's even organized reunions reconnecting people from around the world using Facebook.

**I** have no interest in Facebook, but I understand why some might. It's a valuable tool.

@timkmak Roleplaying is a creative outlet, and those in the midst of war certainly deserve a little escapism. Don't bring people down for their creative endeavours. This isn't nerdy.

It's an outlet.

You do?

Only reason a cookie for that domain persists on my machine is that many news sites continue to embed public responses to events from there, and I just haven't bothered DNSRBL'ing the domain and all related on my LAN, yet. ?
