I continue to be amazed by the puritanical tendencies of people called "randy" and "dick"

I don't disagree with the intent, but surely an actual government petition would have more impact?
Like, on https://petition.parliament.uk/

[@vagina_museum](https://masto.ai/@vagina_museum ) can you rate this 3d model I encountered?

I'd love to offer to help more, but there is no reason you'd give some random person any powers even if I did have time to be more involved.

MahmoudGaza@mastodon.scot is using the same avatar as one of your verified people, and linking to (but not verified by) Gaza verified.
Dunno if legit and new/moved or scam.
BTW Thanks for doing all this, it's amazing and valuable work.

@npub1p09…m5vl
Dunno if you want to be tagged every time I find one, but habub at mas.to is saying "✅️Fundraiser Verified." but I don't find them on https://gaza-verified.org

yeah I understand the reality vs the technical possibility (FTTP has the theoretical ability to be symmetrical, right?)
For me I want faster upload so I can have faster VPN connection back home to access my library of music etc. when away from home.
I realise that is not "normal".
I could go from 500mbps to 900 for only £8 more a month! But it would only add 30mbps to my upload speed.
I pay for more download than I need to get upload close to what I want.

I've decided I don't want to get left behind and have taken my first steps to embrace "AI" guidance in my life.
I bought a tarot deck and will now be using "Arcana Insights" every day.
I'll also be pulling a card every time someone says "I asked chat gpt" in a work meeting.
Today I pulled 5 of swords, which perfectly captures my face whenever someone says "I asked chat gpt".
I dropped this into the meeting chat, warning of hollow victories and the need for building on evidence.

I think you need to calm down with the hashtags. This has nothing to do with war, or NATO. Putin does not control earthquakes or tsunamis.
There is no information on location, so impossible to say if Ukraine is relevant either. Regardless, I doubt this is Zelensky walking his dog.
Also, you never seem to include image descriptions. If you want people to share your posts on the fediverse you'll have a lot more luck if you use alt text.

yup, lift them up and let plants and animals use the space under. I'm sure I've seen research that the biodiversity of fields increased after Solar panels are installed

And people who use text only clients!
I wrote a guide on writing alt text which covered a lot of apps but there are new ones now...

I don't normally do anything about pride month on Mastodon.radio because LGBTQIA+ people are always welcome here.
However, "welcome" isn't quite true.
If you are LGBTQIA+ and interested in amateur radio, shortwave listening, etc. You are explicitly invited to join Mastodon.radio.
If you are homophobic, transphobic, biphobic, etc. I have a very glittery and rainbow coloured ban hammer waiting for you.

I love Eurovision, I've watched it every year for as long as I can remember. We've hosted Eurovision parties with bouncy castles.
But they've once again allowed Israel to participate.
I can't separate art from artist when the artist is representing a country and a government that are perpetuating genocide.
Eurovision kicked out Russia for invading Ukraine.
But they won't kick out Israel.

Hi @npub1d4n…dptf people.
Can you help, I'm not sure which pressure advance setting will give me the best quality prints based on this calibration pattern?

Either my search skills are failing me, or the names are too generic, or it can't be done...
Anyone know if you can use #deltaChat for notifications from #homeAssistant?
I'm considering not renewing the VPS that runs a matrix server that I only use for this.

the word "may" is doing some very heavy lifting in that headline.

eh, "real" servers aren't that expensive. I've got a couple of VPSs with fast hosts and you can get a very basic one for about £32 a year.

whatever you do, practice it and use it, don't wait for the need to arise.
A generator with expired fuel or mechanical issue isn't any use when you suddenly need it.
Nor is a hypothetical gun if you can't shoot straight.
Get comfortable doing / using whatever so when (if) you need to do/use it under pressure you're focusing on the immediate need not the thing.

yeah, I'm all for low contrast themes for people who need and want them, but it's hard to justify the work if no one can express that preference!

2024-10-19 11:01:45 UTC

- reply

really useful stuff there. I've abandoned overriding the theme on my own site because I got myself tied in knots with state and using the OS preferences.
Will have to try again with your tips.
You mention prefers-contrast: less
But I've never found how to set this preference, only increased contrast, do you know something secret I don't?

does he know about PERinaise? There is a vegan version which is excellent, especially with squeaky bean stake.

I was previously unaware of this. I shall need to raid Saintsbury's tomorrow!

I can't decide if the pans that do this OR the one with a "sealed" handle that still gets water in but it doesn't come out until you take it out the cupboard again a couple of days later to find a puddle and it keeps dribbling are worse.

Mastodon/the Fediverse is inhabited by people who would appreciate that I just printed @npub1z8y…cqjg artwork on my dot matrix printer, right?
:alex_thinking:
Seems right up the alley of people like @npub1339…7uqw :alex_crazy:
