Here, have a cat:

@fencoul 3% of 1319 people voted "Brilliant", and this is the most scientific evidence we have of how many children Boris Johnson has.

I will never own a better shirt than this.

Do you ever think about taking a shirehorse to Currys, strapping a fridge freezer to its back and riding it home?

Been seeing a lot about #ChatGPT lately and got my first question at the library this week from someone who was looking for a book that the bot had recommended. They couldn't find it in our catalog. Turns out that ALL the books that ChatGPT had recommended for their topic were non-existent. Just real authors and fake titles cobbled together. And apparently this is known behavior. 😮

Nurses work 12hr shifts; sell their days off; use food banks; pay £1300 a year to park. And 40,000 have left their jobs in a year.

Tory MPs sit for 150 days; get subsidised food; claim travel & energy on expenses; get free parking & £2,200 pay rises.

Back the nurses please

Remove "execute" permissions from SYSVOL/NETLOGON. If you need to allow a script or executable to work, add the ACL manually. Attackers will literally never figure this out.

Also, your own IT staff probably won't figure it out...

"Grant Shapps has denied doctoring a picture on his Twitter feed to remove former Prime Minister Boris Johnson," reports the BBC.

Here's the image on Shapps' now-deleted tweet compared to the original photo.

It doesn't matter how many people are using #Mastodon at this moment. It has reached enough of a level of critical mass that the idea will carry forward and be improved. That's enough gas to get to the next station.

I love moss and I love frogs and I just discovered the cutest thing in existence: the Vietnamese moss frog 🤗

Never forget, a 13-year study of a dozen cities found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users.

ALL ROAD USERS.

And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. As for sharrows, it’s safer to NOT have them.

@b0rk I tend to only follow wholesome people so I've yet to see any content that is blockworthy.

@b0rk I haven't had to do it yet. Because I'm the only user, there';s nothing going on in my federated feed that isn't also in my local. In other words, there's no community to protect, no need to proactively block misbehaving instances until they appear in my timeline.
