I'm in rural Northumberland for a week, and it seems Android 13 feels compelled to notify me there's no signal here every 20 seconds. I could turn off data roaming, but if I do there's zero chance I'll remember to turn it back on when I go out. Like, just don't, phone? You work for me, damn it.

I have no idea how genuine this is, but it's more fun to assume it is. youtu.be/jnQ0zEQPu_A

I'm so good at throwing away irreplaceable pieces of cutlery inside takeaway cartons, I don't even need to think about it. I make it look effortless. It's my forte -- potentially, it's my raison d'etre, we just don't know yet.

car parks that require you to pay using an app are not a thing we should tolerate. they're a thing that should, in fact, get to fuck.

Oof I may have overdone the VR rally driving this evening.

i think he's playing a Hong Kong coastguard but it's a little unclear

Every company, without exception, should hire someone who is Painfully Online to look at their branding and tell them if it's maybe got some Implications

@mwichary@mastodon.online yes! Microwriter, that was it. Well remembered, that's been driving me potty for months trying to bring the name to mind! Thanks!

@mwichary@mastodon.online some really off-the-wall options, there. :-) Did you ever encounter - I forget the name, but in the late 80s there was a brief interest in a 5-button typing system where each letter was produced through a combo of buttons? The vowels were 1 button each and the combos for others were supposed to vaguely resemble the shape of each letter. Never really took off afaik.

@sullybiker also, it's illegal for me to delete my emails.

@sullybiker i have to label every single email i receive to avoid it getting auto-deleted in 3 months. so every single one is tagged 'email'

@sullybiker now the next/last buttons are cropped by the calendar on my work laptop. have to go back to inbox every time and select the next one, or close the calendar, it's driving me insane.

@sullybiker whatever update they applied to it recently at our place actually made it even worse, which I didn't really think was possible.
