This also seems like important, useful information.

This Flock camera is running obsolete, end-of-life software. - It's on Android 8.1, released in 2017, support ended in 2021 - It's on Android patch level 2018-06-5 - It's running Linux 3.18, released in 2017 This shit is like 8 or 9 years old, and full of vulnerabilities.

Yeah that's why I added "non-Brits" -- I figure the folks living with the experience know it sucks! But I doubt your average Italian or Latvian knows that though bsky.app/profile/cliv...

Actually, the. polls are something like 70% anti-Brexit now in the UK. Why Labour steadfastly refuses to recognize this is beyond me.

A delightful item in the post today! So glad to be reunited!

And that's when he finally became Macklemost

Personally I would not pick this fight with the youtube guy who demonstrates all the ways he can nail you with an arrow at 200 yards using his feet while wearing 12-inch Pleasers, whose wife can also kill you with her bare hands, and has 9 billionteen followers who are all trans women with swords.

Blumineck lo ha vuelto a hacer 🥹 le aplaudo hasta que se me caigan las manos, bravo. "Be masculine, be feminine, be neither, or be both. But be kind."

Fair play to the wife of a Caribbean man and mother of mixed race children being informed by the BBC reporter that she’s in the minority in her community regarding immigration and responding with, “Yes, I’m surrounded by bigots.”

Piddington sounds like Midsomer for c*nts.

That's Kobashi with Haru-chan! Every time Kenta Kobashi goes and gets his hair cut, he gets a commemorative photo with the salon's cat. There are lots of photos over the years.

Kenta Kobashi is an underappreciated wrestling cutiepie.

Your app should be a fucking website. I have a browser already. Thank you.

Well, here it is, this year’s Christmas card (first design). Officially revealed here first! (You lucky, lucky people!)

[clears throat] I am, in fact, pretty damn good at what I do. Thanks for asking.

This is just a spectacular unintentional self-own

The real reason I spend so much time at the circus school is that I have been slowly developing an immunity to clowns. This allows me to continue to do tech policy.

In case there was any doubt, Kushner and Witkoff had to see Putin before they saw Zelenskyy in order to pick up their marching orders from the Kremlin. They delivered Vlad the Invader’s same old demands: “Surrender land now, and I promise not to take any more.“ For a while.

lmao eat my entire ass you fucking crybabies

I hope this Ishmael finds you whale

Still thinking about an artist friend who said “I know my peers wont like it but I used AI to do my writing work—” before listing off all the things they did w/ Chat GPT b/c “they got left behind in the last technology boom & wont get left behind again” That “I know my peers wont like it” part tho…

RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open, period.

Back when I first found that site, I did the 'Die Hard Bayeux' thing for Twitter, which keeps cropping up every Christmas.

Finally they came for the Daily Mail and my irony meter just packed up and left and I never heard from it again.

Daniel Thomas / Danny Tommo has today marched his private army of blackshorts to Daily Mail HQ to demand a new house for his mum within 48 hrs, after they doorstepped her for a feature on him. Apparently he plans to blockade them + cry at them until they do Bet those lads are glad of the balaclavas

Optimist: The cup is half full Pessimist: The cup is half empty Engineering Geologist: That's a portable sinkhole. Don't build on it.

I just think that risking your life at a moment's notice to save people you've never met in exchange for no money is a better expression of patriotism than dressing up like a Poundshop paramilitary and intimidating families with kids trying to get onto a ferry.

Additionally: if you are *not* a formally trained and certified medical or nursing professional with credential at *least* equal to mine (I was an R. N. before I started getting paid to write), do NOT attempt to diagnose or suggest treatment for people in my feed, as that will end badly. 😡 —Thanks.

Status report, "Repeating This So It Won't Get Buried In The Replies": don't know how to say this more kindly/more strongly, but: In my feed, DO NOT SUGGEST/REFER CHIROPRACTRY TO ANYONE AS A TREATMENT, OR I WILL BLOCK YOU. Have had to help too many people suffering from that idiocy's aftermath.😡

Police say the man who stole a copy of Ulysses is looking at a long sentence

People with disabilities should be able to *fully* participate in Worldcon. A Worldcon that puts up barriers to participation in any part of the con—whether that's presenting awards, taking part in panels, or anything else—has failed so badly they don't deserve to have won their bid.

One week later, I have an official response from #LACon #Worldcon! I thought all of you should see the entire thing: "Summary: Walking participants only Action Taken: Noted by Listeners team Current Status: CLOSED"

i think years of sleeping on the street is why he's happier sleeping with an arm or hand on him now. He never wants to be alone again.
