#ScribesAndMakers ~ Create a micro-story in six words.
Glass house, stone throw, shard death!
I just logged into Bandcamp without any of the horrific endless Captcha puzzles to solve 🤷
To celebrate, my LP CO2 is available to purchase for a limited time only.
EDIT: NO LONGER AVAILABLE - SEE POST BELOW!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT 🙏
Onward and upward!

Living with a disability does not mean that person is totally incapacitated!
Don't express surprise when they can do things you, as an able bodied person, can't! They will often excel beyond what you even consider possible!
Disability often only affects discrete operations!
Disability does not mean less, it so often means more in ways you simply can't comprehend!
Show some respect!
If you are not sure, or confused, it's okay to ask, but don't assume you know - you probably don't!

Are you sure you want to follow me:
I believe in upholding the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
If you attack other people in violation of any of the protections afforded by this declaration, *you* are the bigot.
I will defend the right of anyone to believe whatever they want to, and defend anyone against those who would act on their belief that it is okay to hurt other people, for whatever delusional reasons they may dream up are acceptable.
🕊️ ❤️ ✊

I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.
Evelyn Beatrice Hall, 1906
Agreed, but that doesn't mean I have to sit around and listen to your shit though.

I have a Teams meeting where I have to run a Presentation 🙄
Search is broken, even with my generally good search skills
What are my options to achieve this with aplomb from Linux?
Any sensible suggestions gratefull received 🙏
I have never owned anything that increased in value as rapidly as Angine de Poitrine Vol. 1 on vinyl
Now at a whopping £500 + P&P in the UK!
The 'cheaper' listings have sold, one was at £225 + P&P
WTAF? 🤷
I will let it go for £1000 P&P *included* 🤣
Bank transfer only!
Can provide personalised proof of existence on demand 👍
Just listened to Technova Tantric Steps on the iRiver
As mentioned earlier it handles gapless playback beautifully!
I am sat in disbelief at how long it has been since I heard this wonderful piece of music as it was intended,all because of stupid developers and modern playback systems / streaming.
I used to have the CD, but that has vanished, so this is a real treat for my ears 🙏
1001 assholes out with rabid uncontrollable dogs today!
It's absolutely horrendous in town now, the place stinks of dog shit, it feels unsafe and scary. And I am sorry to say, that it is quite often the owners who are more scary than the dogs.
It is a criminal offence to make someone feel scared with your dog - 100% of fact!
PAY FOR SOME DOG TRAINING LESSONS
or stay at home, or something, because you are absolutely not welcome if you are giong to behave like that!
Please show some respect!
Now it is well over a year since I ditched touch screen buttonless interfaces, I can say with absolute certainty, beyond all shadow of a doubt, that
touch screen buttonless interfaces are absolute garbage, a mistake that shoud never have happened,
and I am very happy that they are on their way out 🙏 🥳
Not on their way out you say? 😆
We clearly operate on different time scales my dear 😋
Now of course I am wondering how many people on my followers / following lists are corporate shill bots 🤔
Where's Deckard when you need him? 🤷
To interact with this toot, first you need to PROVE YOU ARE HUMAN
Please solve the puzzle below:
TIL
XKCD has an explainer website:
https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/327:_Exploits_of_a_Mom
It provides a transcript perfect for alt text and it gives away the tooltip joke 🤷
I always thought people who didn't know about the tooltip jokes were embarassing themselves, but this takes the embarassment to a whole new level!
There really is no excuse for xkcd reposts without alt text including the tooltip joke any more - well - unless you're deliberately trying to be obnoxious and / or stupid? 🤣
I don't think I have ever seen Rick Beato so unhappy.
I take no pleasure in seeing him acquiese to intense fan pressure, the forced smiles, and the 'let's get this fucking shit over with' attitude.
His choice of audio segments were deeply unkind, missing all of the fun / difficult transitions etc. focussing on the repetitive sections only.
The title gives it all away, he only did this because he wants the fan emails to stop.
I think Mr. Beato has *sour grapes* 🍇 🤣
Really old interview with Iain Banks from 1996
I remember reading this at the time, and stumbled over it again yesterday - some words are remarkably relevant today 30 years later 👍
"This sort of stuff has been going on for decades and mainstream society is beginning to catch up to the implications of artificial intelligence.”
