@mrundkvist Good morning from a cold Oslo. We are soon heading out for traditional Christmas service at the Swedish Church, before we go back home for Christmas porridge and later dinner and presents.

@moonhouse Det tror jag har hänt mig två gånger. Jag har bott här i 25 år...

Bare ta toget hit fra Stockholm, dere, hva kan gå galt?

@mrundkvist Good morning from a cold and gray Oslo, where I'm waiting for the Christmas guest, whose train is stuck in the forests somewhere between the border and here... (Not SJ's fault)

Hibbel Zippel ... Wie oft muss ich wohl noch schlafen? #Commodore #C64

Not bad find for a Saturday morning.

@gleick Here's another that the current goons might want to reflect on.

I'm told "there is data" but I honestly don't know what that means yet

While cleaning a storage room, our staff found this tape containing #UNIX v4 from Bell Labs, circa 1973

Apparently no other complete copies are known to exist: https://gunkies.org/wiki/UNIX_Fourth_Edition

We have arranged to deliver it to the Computer History Museum

@anderszapac.bsky.social Lite som att Coop ger mig rabattkuponger på munkar hela tiden... :-)

More than 40 years after my last order of a Commodore I oprdered again in spring. And today they just delivered a box! 🤩 And I can‘t wait to get my hands on it — after Xmas eve. 🤗🤩
The new team blew away some dust, teached the C64 some new tricks and finally the Joystick waiting here since summer will have something to connect to. 😎

Imagine telling someone in 1900 that yeah, we have sex without a thought about babies or marriage, and anybody can study to be an archbishop even if they haven't got any money. In Scandinavia, that is.

Scotland has an aging population and a total fertility rate of 1.25—we need *either* a TFR of 2.05 *or* immigrant labour to retain a stable population, and without a stable population we face a grim future of diminishing economic output and a rising ratio of dependents (largely elderly and infirm) to workers.

Nor can we breed our way out of this—it takes 20-odd years to manufacture a new worker that way.

Opposition to migration is quite literally suicidal.

So, #Slack is trying to shove these #AI features down my throat. At least they gave ma "Don't ask again" button, not a "Bug me again in five seconds".

But pressing the button of course gave me an error message. They obviously did forgot to test it...

Når det nesten ikke er mulig å kjøpe fysiske billetter lenger, så burde det være krav på at kontrollører har lader for de vanligste typene av elektroniske billettholdere (a.k.a mobiltelefoner).

@resplendent606 Coming from Turbo Pascal on MS-DOS, I settled in to using Joe from day one and has kept using it.
