@karlemilnikka Interesting, maybe one should tip the Norwegian Consumer Authority about that, as they do sell these here in Norway. An unpatched security vulnerability *is* a manufacturing defect.

"The statutory warranty period depends on how long the product is meant to last when subjected to normal use. Sofas and mobile phones are examples of products with a 5-year warranty period."

If you're upset that there's a black #SpiderMan or a female #Thor, or that Ms. Marvel is #Muslim, or that Captain Marvel was pro- #feminism or any of the other things #rightwing "fans" say is "stealing their childhood" you never got it in the first place.

The stories we grew up with all taught us to value other people and cultures and to treasure the differences between us. Only villains were xenophobic, or sexist, or racist, or totalitarian. I can't understand how anyone can have missed that.

* #StanLee said, "#Racism and #bigotry are among the deadliest social ills plaguing. the world today." If you're bigoted or #racist, you didn't get any of the characters Stan Lee created.

* #StarTrek is about #equality for all genders, races and sexualities. As early as the mid-60s it was taking a #prochoice stance and defending #women's right to choose. (It's also anti-#capitalist and pro-#vegan). If you didn't get that, you didn't get Star Trek.

* #DoctorWho was about an alien-fighting for all of humanity in spite of totalitarian regimes. If you don't get that, you don't get Doctor Who.

* #Deadpool is #queer. He's #pansexual. Fact. If you didn't get that you didn't get Deadpool.

* #Superman and #WonderWoman (and a whole host of other #superheroes) are #immigrants. The stance of those comics is pro-#immigration and pro-equality and acceptance. If you didn't get that, you didn't get Superman or Wonder Woman.

* #XMen is about #civil rights. If you didn't get that, you didn't get X-Men.

* #BlackPanther is about civil rights. If you didn't get that, you didn't get Black Panther.

* #CaptainAmerica literally fought #Nazis. He is the embodiment of fighting the #altRight. If you didn't get that, you didn't get Captain America.

* The Empire in #StarWars is #fascist. The Rebel alliance is #AntiFa. If you didn't get that, you didn't get Star Wars.

Not the worst commute this morning.

@mocom So, git bundle (with --all) for a one-file backup. Or you can just git clone --mirror it to get a full copy. git fast-export can give you a verbose, machine-readable dump.

https://stackoverflow.com/q/5578270 has some writeup on the subject.

@mocom Of the files or of the history?

git archive has been mentioned, it will get you the files.

For the history, git fast-export can give you a one-file representation of the repository. Might be possible to get it with git bundle in a bit more efficient format, too, but that I have not tested myself.

Imagine social media software without likes and follows.

@Athavariel That felt unnecessary, yes. It could have been done so much better.

@DJxSpeedy They at least had the decency to zoom out. This is so unnecessary.

Now, that was just brutal. #AEW #AEWAllOut

Wow, that was an unexpected end to the #AEW championship match. #AEWAllOut #BryanDanielson

It's 2 am, I am already up for an hour, watching #AEW #AEWAllOut pre-show and now am stoked for the PPV itself!

Only been two weeks since I was in #London at #Wembley watching live, they're now back to the night shift. Thankfully on a Saturday over there.

@donw @scott Well, yeah, that's USian culture all right…

My friends thought I was crazy when I visited Dallas a few years back and *didn't* rent a car. I got by just fine on public transport, but it felt a bit weird to be of the very few pale-skinned people around.

Visiting European cities I don't even *consider* renting a car anywhere. And I have never owned one, either (I *do* have access to cars through a car-cooperative, and do drive cars, approximately a dozen times a year).

@ruari Vipps, only to get the second confirmation of what I am paying. I have avoided several accidental tickets that way (I often switch between single ticket, ticket with kids, several zones, etc).

@scott I think it says a lot about a culture when the language has invented a word for "jaywalking".
