bookmarking toots that link to interesting articles so that I can read them later (I will never do this)

[while fastening up a strap-on] I’m gonna peg you so hard and for so long, you’ll feel like you’re a 2010s netbook CPU trying to browse the modern Internet

yeah, like, I'd argue that the one in your original toot is... _fine_, since it gives you a fairly visible affordance that you can scroll horizontally
the new iOS photos app, OTOH, is irredeemable

every time I read about the stock market, and the billions of dollars magicked in and out of existence based on wall street finance bro feelpinions, I like it even less

no idea; firmware modding is one of those things that I am vaguely aware of the existence of, but not something I'm willing to risk bricking my daily driver camera for. (And none of my old cameras happen to be ones that people have modded, alas.)
That said, if I saw a toot from Luna one day saying that she'd made some kind of firmware mod for a newer camera that nobody has ever modded before, I'd be very seriously impressed but not even remotely surprised

I mean, camera firmware modding is a thing just sayin’

okay this is it, now that you’ve pointed it out I can’t un-see it, this is the one sentence that lands me firmly in the anti-“munnel” camp lmao

TIL, I remember seeing echoes online of Chunnel being a thing like a decade ago, but I didn’t know if people still called it that or not
Honestly the fact that “Chunnel” hasn’t stuck over in your neck of the woods makes people saying “munnel” over here even more sad

you’re going to hate it even more when you find out it’s Melburnians trying to evoke the incredible feat of engineering that is the Channel Tunnel, in reference to a 9km (5.6mi) long, 40m (130ft) deep project called the “Metro Tunnel”

2024-11-29 11:13:57 UTC

Melbourne public transport nerds, how do we all feel about “munnel”?
I’m finding myself oscillating between “sure, if people are calling it that, I guess I’ll call it that” and “please dear god I am begging you, stop trying to make ‘munnel’ happen”

honestly more people should tag their misinformation with the #misinformation hashtag :P

Regional Australia has some of the best place names.
Also I consistently get Violet Town (northern Victoria) mixed up with Lavender Town (Kanto region, but not the IRL one, the Pokémon one)

The GOV.UK “exit this page" button (for pages that might be visited by e.g. domestic abuse victims seeking support) doesn't take you to the Google homepage but instead BBC Weather, and the reason why is interesting and well-thought-out: https://beeps.website/blog/2024-10-09-why-govuk-exit-this-page-doesnt-use-escape/#bonus%3A-why-does-it-redirect-the-user-to-bbc-weather%3F

Im generally pretty sour on the whole LLM/genAI hype train, but one area where I genuinely think it has promise is *parsing* natural language.
For instance, LLMs seem to be WAY better at parsing instructions than eg current Siri, and while I don’t care for the generative bits of “Apple Intelligence” I’m looking forward to Siri improvements.
Also I’d love a tool that can take an booking confirmation page or a text from a friend make a calendar entry, and LLMs seem to be very good at that.

It has been 182 days since the last time an inattentive truck driver has gotten wedged under the Montague Street Bridge, meaning we are currently in the third-longest streak since community record-keeping began in 2016! https://howmanydayssincemontaguestreetbridgehasbeenhit.com

American bros in my apartment lift: “so it’s got so much potential, but it’s really more of a stage 2 thing…”
Me, thinking: “ugh, gross, business/tech bros”
Bros: “…but it needs Rare Candy, so it only really works in a Charizard deck because Charizard already needs Rare Candy”
