@haferlasche@digitalcourage.social @ekuber@hachyderm.io Hell is empty and the devils are all here.

@mattblaze@federate.social The mirror version is also true: when a person who's done bad things dies, the time to talk about those bad things is *right then, while their body is still warm*. (Also before, while they're doing it, and long after, when they're history and it's hard to get people to care. But the bastards who say THIS IS NOT THE TIME THINK OF THEIR FAMILY are denying the victims their voice right when it will be heard the loudest. And to hell with those bastards.)

@twoowls73@mastodon.scot The last vestige of socialism left in the country where I live. Maybe we should hope nobody notices... except for all the people we help!

@geekysteven@beige.party They said the French monarchy was here to stay, too.

@ivor@social.ivor.org @jon_ellis@chaos.social @jwz@mastodon.social Does the Butlerian Jihad count as "government regulations for AI"?

@phire@phire.place Speaking as someone who does not get acceptable vision correction from contact lenses: fuck those people. ("Who, the makers or the users?" ("Yes.")

@mcnado@mstdn.social Never heard of them so they may not be sold here, but I'll keep an eye out and give them a try if they are.

@ryanc Related: I grew up thinking the 6502 had three registers. Then I saw someone say X and Y weren't registers at all. Then I saw someone else say the first 256 bytes of RAM *were* registers.

@november@chaosfem.tw @0xabad1dea@infosec.exchange Everybody wants federation until they get it.

@hellomiakoda@pdx.social That's me at the end of a CRPG, inventory full of potions that I never used because I might need them more later.

@isotopp But we don't have to stop, right?

@cmconseils@mastodon.social Re 3: "You've all worked really hard to get us past (collapse of major vendor), so I'll bring pizza for everyone on Friday. Sorry, Patrick, I know you can't eat wheat." (What I should have said: "That's okay. By the way, I'm going to take Friday off.")

@thomasjwebb @lzg "Twenty-two minutes late, badger ate a data center at New Malden."

@BauarbeiterforFuture What is a search engine?

@vnkr @mxk @Frank_Juston The more you overthink the plumbing, the easier for us to stop up the drains.

@technomancy @inthehands Be right back, gonna register teethteethteeth.com

@jannem@fosstodon.org @cmconseils@mastodon.social Or financial, if you have one of those rare, rare jobs that still has an honest to Cthulhu pension system *where the money is already held by an outside agency* and your employer can never touch it.

@cap_ybarra@beige.party Why, is Nuremberg busy?

@0xabad1dea@infosec.exchange "Three can keep a secret if two are dead" and all that.

@inthehands I like how that one sign replaces the O in her name with a drawing of an anus.

@mtconleyuk@mastodonapp.uk @mattblaze@federate.social Or in hospice and the vultures are circling. (I have a certain seventh-tier role playing game personality coughERNIEGYGAXcough in mind, and the moderators of a certain forum coughENWORLDcough.)

@cstross@wandering.shop If it's a Boeing, I ain't goeing.

@MichaelWhelan@mastodon.art Must be the jumpsuit that does it.

@MichaelWhelan@mastodon.art I've heard more than one person say they thought your reference was Sigourney Weaver as Warrant Officer Ellen Ripley.

@jannem@fosstodon.org @cmconseils@mastodon.social Lucky so and sos. (My pension scheme covers lots of the public sector jobs in my state. But my skills aren't very portable and my house is less so (less than a mile from work) and I'm most of the way to retirement so unless things get *really* bad I'm staying where I am.)

@jwz@mastodon.social Tags: surprisingly not Florida

@gloriouscow @mike That's what they've been doing in Innsmouth.

@tsturm @jef Pity the old name wasn't Lovers of Dick Christ Point.

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social And not 5 seconds of self-awareness.

@pifster @ptoothfish So now you have no idea how it works and no basis for thinking it does what you want, and you're oddly okay with that. Cool, carry on.

@dec23k@mastodon.ie @pattykimura@beige.party @stefano@mastodon.bsd.cafe "Now you have $n+1$ problems."

@thomasfuchs@hachyderm.io And when they say "it's not going away"... well, that's what they used to tell the French about kings.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social I'm sure I can macgyver up a windmill or something to push that button. And it's very windy here this season.

@lo@framapiaf.org And then James Bond shoots you.

@stevelieber@mastodon.social "But there's no connection, and you'd be a fool and a Communist to believe there was", as Bill Hicks once snarked.

@GrimmReality Deport them to low Earth orbit. Without benefit of vacc suit.

@csolisr @karlauerbach@sfba.social @gdinwiddie@mastodon.social If companies can be people, why can't they be countries too?

@galacticstone@mastodon.social Finally got my Emacs set up the way I like it.

@kimlockhartga@beige.party "This hurricane was made possible by a generous donation from..."

@ryan@m29.us @jwz@mastodon.social I'm a city employee and $PLACE_OF_ORK's domain *changed* from a .CITY.STATE.us to a .gov just a few years ago. Care to try again?

@Purple@woof.tech @pikesley@mastodon.me.uk If your busy scolding schedule allows you time to actually have friends and if any of them are in health care, ask them to tell you about the jokes they tell when they think patients aren't in earshot. I tell those jokes TO my medicos. And we all laugh.

@nblr@chaos.social "AI? Bye bye!"

@TrueBlue4THREE @eighthourlunch @Purple666 @streetartutopia Hate speech reported.

@Sobex@social.sciences.re @bnys@lasersword.club @mttaggart@infosec.exchange Oh, you see the comment where Aurich called Discord demanding biometrics and scans of ID cards 'a nothingburger'? And the further comments (plural) where he defended that wording?

@yacc143@mastodon.social @jannem@fosstodon.org @cmconseils@mastodon.social As it should be, but around here that doesn't happen.

@arstechnica Dan Simmons was the Leslie Fish of overeducated science fantasy writers.

@Fedihacker@masto.es @Ashedryden@xoxo.zone If they had one single desirable product, they wouldn't need it.

@mattblaze@federate.social They remember what happened to Charles I.
