@pixelpusher220 @ai6yr I've been suspicious of those portable camera installations ever since Lowe's started putting them in their parking lots two years ago.

But since they also abandoned their DEI programs with Trump's election I've already switched away from Lowe's to the local Ace/TrueValue franchises.

@Mastodon @johnonolan "Today, Ghost's annual revenue is over $8.5M while total publisher earnings on Ghost have now surpassed $100M." That implies a very livable ratio, certainly better than Steam, Apple, or any other publishing platform.

Please, Ghost, never enshittify your payment model.

@rootcompute I just wish they told you what you were getting before redeeming the code. So for everyone else:

I only even heard of three of these, and not finding any on lists of Yuri games, so *shrug*.

AFAICT #Fedicon is not being live-streamed, but will videos be up on PeerTube or other streaming platform later?

Every time you see a cybertruck on the road you have to shout "punchnotsy" and poke your sibling so they're paying attention and know to give the driver the finger too.

@skinnylatte I don't know if it's still good, but when I was there for a conference, some friends took me to the Crown and Anchor, and I remember that the food was good but mostly it was to introduce me to a flight of Scotch.

@Viss @skinnylatte Hey, don't shit on the clerical workers. Before I got an actual IT job I was a medical secretary who also networked the office and did Fat Mac memory upgrades at my desk. Clerical folks usually know how to get shit done, certainly better than the people they work for.

But salespeople? Yeah, go to town on them.

@Viss @skinnylatte :smdh:

@Viss @skinnylatte Ok, fair. And for full disclosure, I was a secretary at the medical school, not a clinical secretary, so didn't have the full DSM-III training or anything like that. I learned everything I've since forgotten about oncology on the job.

@anon_opin No cat flap needed. Gallifreyan cats live in a quantum state and are both inside and outside the TARDIS at all times. Saves one from having to chase stray Adipose around after they get in, too.

@catsalad Real friends dont let friends use Windows.

@Viss @elfin @kajer @ryanc @sycophantic There's an important lesson here, kids: THEY PAID THE ARTIST!

Stahp! I'm dead already.

@hellomiakoda @vlrny Top one echoes my disdain for onions. Second one is the guy who put onions on my cheesesteak when I said witout.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead seems to have a whole lot of background palace drama worthy of exploration.

I used "grok" as a verb last week, with the original meaning "to understand." I have to stop doing that, because Heinlein was problematic enough but Elon has totally poisoned the well.

Would someone who gets involved with multiple romantic partners without considering all the emotional work and scheduling involved, because they think everything will turn out just fine, be a Poly Anna?

I'm going to Paris to see the ratacombs.

The what?

The ratacombs, you know the tunnels under the city with the skulls and everything?

You mean the catacombs.

No, that can't be right.

Listen, I've been there and I've toured the Paris catacombs so I know.

You've been there?

Yes.

And how many cats did you see down there?
