If you tell your friends about Mastodon, you’re technically an ambassador of the federation.

There should be two types of car: ones with all the digital touchscreen 'smart-tech' bullshit, and ones with proper buttons, dials and knobs.

There is something a bit weird going on. Been sorting through my photos from the last week & LOADS of clouds are forming with open mouths. This is not normal. You'd get one every now and then but honestly, they're EVERYWHERE.

I, of course, welcome our new Chompy Cloud Overlords but still... it's a bit odd. There is, I suppose, a slight chance that I have just spent too long looking at clouds.

It's a mystery 🧐

True story

Interesting fact, a modem does not contain any more memory than is strictly required to process the data passing through it. It has no memory of past experience. That means that every time you connect to a BBS, it's thinking "what is this weird noise? Is it supposed to mean something? Oh god I think I'm going to KRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHTT"

I believe @GossiTheDog 's line here is "pass the bong"

Just managed to get the HP printer I bought in 2011 to connect to new wifi router, thanks to finding a web page that explained how to do it without any HP software

Also recently set up my wife's new work-supplied HP printer and had to use THE SAME GUIDE, as HP's software didn't work for that either

UNIX includes a command to deal with your cat walking on your keyboard. When your cat is coming, you just type "cat" and press enter, and your cat's input won't mess anything up.

I lived long enough to see a President of the United States sweatily try to sell me a new car. Everything around me has finally completed its transformation into a Paul Verhoeven movie
