RE: https://mastodon.social/@VeroniqueB99/117395892301161032 Image shows a couple in a car at a petrol station. The man says "I'm getting the feeling Americans are fed up." They look at a man on a ladder, near a sign saying "GAS" with an arrow pointing UP, and "TRUMP" with an arrow going down. #AltText Oh - petrol station is 'gas station' in the USA.

Watched an hour of a film. The People Time Forgot. 1977. It's so wrong that it's entertaining. People traipse through dust and sand, get kidnapped, tied up, escape, slide through mud. And not a hair out of place, no smear on their skin, and their clothes are clean from the laundry. LOL!

Going off-track with the prompts for inktober. You could imagine this candle to be a miniature one, though. #inktober

@_elena@mastodon.social I dare say that the community thanks you for being here.

Do you use a non-webbased RSS feed reader on Linux? If yes, which one? I tried Liferea but that keeps reloading all the ones I've already read as new. #RSS #Feedreader #Linux

The value is while you are on ChatGPT and tied to your ChatGPT account. __obi is then sent to OpenAI from ordinary websites you visit. Any company that buys ads on ChatGPT installs a small piece of OpenAI code on its own site, the same way retailers already install Meta and Google tracking code. Joy... #Noai

Yesterday: Got my girlfriend to work in time and in style. First steps on the path to lever changes on the harp. Making slow progress on writing with a fountainpen (again, since decades), in a way that afterwards I can read what I wrote. Small steps. #ReasonsToBeCheerful #3goodthings

@fiend4coffee@c.im Yes, she wrote just that. Interestingly I just moved from Proton Pass to KeepassXC. @_elena@mastodon.social

You have no reason not to watch Babylon 5 now that it's free on YouTube https://www.engadget.com/2229891/you-have-no-reason-not-to-watch-babylon-5-now-that-its-free-on-youtube/ A true fan would already have the bluray or DVD, I think. But here you are. A freebie. #Babylon5

@randahl@mastodon.social As I said already. No need to come voting. Your ballot has already been filled out for you. Disgusting, but we knew that for decades already.

@fiend4coffee@c.im Proton Pass is very good. I went there from Bitwarden to get EU software instead of US software. And now KeepassXC, to have full control over where my password files are. It takes some time to figure it out but I like it. The browser extension for Proton Pass is superior to the Bitwarden one in my not so humble opinion. @_elena@mastodon.social

Good morning.

@gedeonm@mastodon.social This popped up right on time. I want to pick up drawing (again, but that's not saying I did anything great before). This is a great opportunity and motivator. Thank you.

@jeandesu01_@mastodon.world She was a beautiful person. I’m glad I got to know her @nekoow7@mastodon.social @vfrmedia@social.tchncs.de @wilson@nfld.me @roknrol@beige.party @_L1vY_@mstdn.social @Gustodon@mas.to @LoganFive@beige.party @PhoenixSerenity@beige.party @maddad@mastodon.world

@_elena@mastodon.social 😂 😂 😂 I can imagine the stunned faces! I hope someone took a picture for you! @samvie@chaos.social @Tobias

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social A part of Germany clearly isn't. Alas.

@hetzner@mastodon.hetzner.social "Shoutout to the people who turn it off and on again on a professional level!" HAHAHA!! Love it!!

Repost for @vegan_horizon@veganism.social #Alttext #Vegan

@Crow@pagan.plus You'd have to ask Kevin Veegan what exactly he meant. Baby cows are ripped away from their mothers (and their milk) too early, so humans can drink the rich cow milk that is meant for the calf. But that's okay, because most calfs will be slaughtered and sold as meat anyway. And yes. It's the industry that keeps the milk and meat myth alive. (But this is my interpretation, not that of Kevin V.) @vegan_horizon@veganism.social

@neoluddite@aus.social I noticed that too when having a look (out of curiosity)

@Quantium40@sueden.social I found my tribe!! 😊 Given the age of the series, it's wonderful what they managed to get done on the discs.
