@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social I worked with a woman who congratulated me on getting my kid to 21 without him getting someone pregnant or going to jail. Similar energy

Does anyone know what this kitchen implement is? It came with, and the glass matches other accessories of, a Hoosier Cabinet. (Genuine Hoosier brand, from 1920s.) It has about the same capacity as the spice jars, maybe 5cm diameter. The caps at both ends unscrew and both caps are open ended with an internal perforated metal filter. It seems too small to be a flour sifter, but it could be for dusting powdered sugar (somehow)

@flyingsaceur@ioc.exchange I went with A/UX, but where's "NetBSD on a discarded Wall Street workstation in NYC subway tunnel"?

@deepmud@mas.to @kims@mas.to This

Seen in an "opportunity knocks" $160k real estate listing. Lots of notable things missing. «Bedrooms & bathrooms • Bedrooms: 0 Heating • None Cooling • None Appliances • Included: None • Laundry: None Features • Flooring: None • Windows: Storm Window(s) • Basement: Unfinished • Has fireplace: No» Well they were not kidding about "flooring: none." Looks like someone was trying to add a basement to a building previously lacking one

@stevewfolds@mastodon.world @davidallan@mastodonapp.uk I walk a lot more than sidewalk to front door daily

@davidallan@mastodonapp.uk There are streets that steep in San Francisco. They can be painful to walk up or down. Up, stretching your calves. Down, your toes smashing into the front of your shoes going down.

@protoeuskaldun@mastodon.eus @mitch@hachyderm.io Seems to be AI concept for a product: https://www.threads.com/@delahuntagram/post/DaDSO0yCKkZ

@golgaloth@writing.exchange Offers a dice standard. Draws a nonstandard d6.

@th@social.v.st @robpike@cosocial.ca Interpreting ancient places as New York State city names is a running joke in the The Flying Karamazov Brothers version of Shakespeare's "Comedy of Errors" I saw it live, but it was also broadcast on TV and you can find clips on youtube https://www.lct.org/shows/the-comedy-of-errors/

@ifixcoinops@retro.social @ajroach42@retro.social You just don't find plowman's lunch often in the states. Have to eat it when you do

@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social "Front Toward Enemy" Period appropriate would be Emacs, but post Cold Editor War, it's probably VS Code

@avhn@clacks.link @hanakogames@mastodon.gamedev.place

@ifixcoinops@retro.social @ajroach42@retro.social I don't get as annoyed as you seem to, but I will mostly not watch his videos when links float by. (And I don't seek out videos on youtube as a general rule.)

@adamrice@c.im @NanoRaptor@bitbang.social That quote lives in my mind for both stage magic and movie "magic". I remember sharing it when someone was suspecting CGI for that OK Go video on the zero-G aircraft ("Upside Down & Inside Out")

@thomasfuchs@hachyderm.io But if it they want to call it rogue AI, let's hold them responsible for creating the monster

@ifixcoinops@retro.social I have seen it in shops, and I think tried it. That's made with burdock root, isn't it? Not sure what part of the dandelion, but I'm guessing also the root

@thomasareed@infosec.exchange I remember this from when those new icon sixes were announced. And I remember when those Macs had such as impressively crisp and clear screens. (After, say, an Apple ][e, the pixels were basically invisible.)

@kims@mas.to Not sure if my phone number is up to date in their records. I have moved four times since I opened my account

@mcc@mastodon.social Offhand I can't recall if French Republican calendar followed Gregorian for placement of leap years. Do you know if Heisei 12 was a leap year in the Republican calendar?

@apLundell@timeloop.cafe I have succeeded by having a white light in the photo. I would need to search for the photo but smokey sky got super orange a few years ago

@Jeanniewarner@wandering.shop Sounds like a way to get sued in every two party consent for audio recording area

@scottgal@hachyderm.io Will @CountBinface@mastodon.world start posting again? Plenty of supporters on fedi now

@exil_inselette@norden.social @mitch@hachyderm.io Alt text for this: A closeup of a shirt front with two buttons. The buttons are ear shaped and the buttonholes have the face of Vincent van Gogh embroidered around the hole. One button is buttoned and that van Gogh has an ear. The other is unbuttoned so his ear is missing

@whitequark@social.treehouse.systems I kept waiting for it. Then I got to the last sentence. Separately. For people who understand UK real estate, am I reading correctly that this is a chance to "own" only 30% of a home, and then pay rent on the rest? Or is a property with multiple units, which this home represents 30% of the property? What good is owning but still paying rent? Or if the other way, why so awkwardly worded? Or is it some third thing?

@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social Sounds very @checkervest@laserdisc.party

From "Folks Fruits: Amusing Adventures in Opal Orchard" by T. Benjamin Faucett, published 1924.

@mookie I suspect linkedin readers look at that and think "9 to 5? You gotta pump those numbers up, those are rookie numbers in this racket."

@thermia@sk.girlthi.ng I have head that, but pee-en-gee seems more common

@leafygreens@meow.social "Queer up" is like "cowboy up" but for kink, right?

@hannah@posts.rat.pictures I'm very curious what book this is

@apLundell@timeloop.cafe @NoveltyBot@mastodon.social Agreed on all accounts, except that for some bear, I'm doubtful most experts would have trouble with whatever bolts they sell with this thing. John Wick can push a pencil through someone, but most people won't get it far in before it snaps.

@europlus@social.europlus.zone @baldur@toot.cafe @rgb@cathode.church That's funny because "Monopoly" doesn't have IOUs, but "Life" does. They even made a special version with extra debt

@checkervest@laserdisc.party I see a friend and a silhouette of another

@jef@mastodon.social There's an AI speech to text system I saw demoed that doesn't believe in silence. It would hallucinate speech out of nothing. Anyway I keep thinking of that when I read about conversations with the senator from Kentucky

@4censord@unfug.social @pierogiburo@tech.lgbt

@utf_7@mastodon.social @fluffy@plush.city @whitequark@social.treehouse.systems I don't know what happens there or in tenancy in common. In a co-op, yes, you pay by percent owned. Even if you're on the second floor of a fourteen story building. And your insurance agent will ask when the roof was last replaced regardless of what floor you live on. (This quirk of co-ops is understandable, but other parts are much less pleasant, like board approval for your selling price and board screening of the new buyer.)

@apLundell@timeloop.cafe @NoveltyBot@mastodon.social Kills all North American big game. What else in the comic is going to take out a bear? Silent so that beginner who has only wounded the bear can take another shot. Crossbows in movies are such powerful weapons. I can't see how this could go wrong

@hannah@posts.rat.pictures Thanks

@mms@mastodon.bsd.cafe Mississippi (and Alabama) in particular are going to have racist interpretations of existing laws. What might be immediately flagged elsewhere might get ignored if it's just in a mostly black population area. Note the involvement of the NAACP, which works to fight racism

@DataKnightmare@mastodon.xyz TIL ​@​markwyner​@​mas​.​to​ blocks me. I probably would have blocked him, if he followed me, so no big loss, but I always wonder why when someone blocked me. I only see one interaction with him in my downloaded post archive

@overholt@glammr.us Without checking, I'd guess you have a copy of "Farthest North" by Nansen. Everyone has a copy of that

@resuna@ohai.social @PCOWandre@jauntygoat.net Aahz did too. At least somewhat. For the Python book he used a last name (borrowed from his partner and coauthor) but he really tried to just be Aahz to the end. (Died December 2021.) I only met him once or twice

@fluffy@plush.city @whitequark@social.treehouse.systems I live in SF and have a vague understanding of TIC. And I grew up in NYC, where co-ops are a thing. I am, through inheritance, half owner with my sister of a co-op apartment. That has a monthly "maintenance" payment, but no "rent". (My daughter is currently living in it until we get probate finished to properly sell it. Because of ownership limbo, we can't vote for the board.) Neither TIC or co-op is something I'd choose for myself. Condo or outright ownership.

@jacqueline@chaos.social Yes. Just yes

@nflux@gts.exile.social @masek@infosec.exchange Oddly, I pretty much never have that happen

@masek@infosec.exchange That's how I have five or six paypal accounts now
