@JL_Lycette Both my oncologist and ophthalmologist are women and I hope to God they don't give it up to go and cook

There is already a scanning process called "Read the fucking boarding pass" Why does this need to be solutionized? Just follow the damn rules.

I'm glad to announce the release of version 2.61 of #snac, the simple, minimalistic #ActivityPub instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:
Migration from a Mastodon account to a snac one has been implemented. Please see snac(8) (the administrator manual) for more information.
Mastodon API: fixed timelines/public (it was showing less posts that it should).
Fixed over-zealous caching to the public timeline.
Some HTML tweaks and fixes to the web interface.

This release has been inspired by the painting The Hands Resist Him by #BillStoneham.

@RoyBrander@urbanists.social @stefano There's some class elements to it, I think. There's an association with it being lower-tier work, not a profession, which so many young people aspire to. It's totally wrong in my opinion, but I appear to be against the trend here.
@stefano There should not be two tracks, 'management' OR 'technical' and I find the culture very irritating. The best people keep their hand in, how else do they know what is going on?
@stefano This is a very common scenario. My own manager has said so, and I have had the same experience since being promoted.
How is already Monday, dammit!
A possum got into my recycling bin and could not get out. He's still sleeping in it.

Once you see the connection between LLMs and psychics / seances / spiritualism, it’s hard to unsee. At the center: people •want• to believe, and that is powerful. Thinking of modern-day SV, listen to some of the stories of how con artists used spiritualism…

@jerry Feels a bit sudden
An interesting musical curio is Sting's original demo for Every Breath You Take (he turned up to Synchronicity sessions with fully-formed demos of most of his stuff; the bellwether for the end of The Police). Andy Summers absolutely hated it, until he wrote *that* guitar part and the rest is history. #music
