@overholt@glammr.us (tangential to how I saw this) Someone pregnant I know is feeding their ultrasound data into some sort of McFacebook stable diffusion model to find out what their child will look like.

@stufromoz @fzer0 Can vouch. If you front lift then the crop (bit between neck and the body) will fall naturally on your wrist providing balance. A comfortable duck will use legs for low-stress sideways balance. (also this is classic duck strategy - it's becoming too expensive for them to drive their duck cars, so they're looking to alternative forms of transportation)

@ygathgoch@cloudisland.nz That's black belt level knitting. I once tried to knit a beanie and it was 1) Knit one 2)what's perl again, OH it's that thing where it feels like you dropped a stitch. 3) "Hi mum I'm knitting a hat but I made a bird's nest instead" 4) Mum: "THIS IS NOT YOUR CALLING. I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START BUT THIS IS NOT FOR YOU"

@ygathgoch@cloudisland.nz @aligorith@mastodon.nz If you gave me a billion dollars I still couldn't thread a sewing machine but I share J's intuition about how "close to the metal" resonates. Is Kim T on here? (Wonderful librarian person who is an absolute Master of Amigurumi) and someone I miss from the bad website.

@stufromoz Sam strikes me as a good person. Good news indeed. In other news the Christchurch Choir will not be putting their member fees up despite making a loss year on year.

@WAHa_06x36 There's a label maker label (The big size, so you know it's important) "Return TO OT" (Not sure how "To" got shout-caps privileges, but to me it will always read "Return TOOT" (It's meant to mean "Return to operating theater")

This is broadcasting standards complaint worthy. The reporter parroting a false equivalence between national technological competence and building an electricity sucking con job we'll never see any benefit from. https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/business/589629/ai-illiterate-nz-at-risk-of-being-left-behind-as-data-centre-plans-move-forward
