I saw this on Mastodon and hope it assists some people to move away from Windows: endof10.org

@nakhthor.bsky.social is this of use to you or anyone you know? www.meetup.com/hackmanhatta...

@therealyplac.bsky.social I was browsing though old photos and spotted this example of parking excellence, which clearly struck me at the time.

Some exhibits in Banbury museum.

Having fun with a household issue which required a call out from my home emergency cover. The initial repair has failed, but just over the 28 days they cheekily say makes it a separate incident. I called my local tradesman out, who doesn't want to touch it...

A forum thread on jam sessions ended up on the topic of borrowing instruments. I was very pleased to see that the majority agreed that one should bring one's own or not complain if permission to borrow was refused. Sometimes it seems like those who think they've a right to borrow are everywhere.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

For those who only know me from my corsets, I am also a historical martial arts instructor with Black Boar Sworsdmanship. Next month I’ll be teaching at a full day bartitsu workshop in Godalming along side the amazing Lauren Ireland and Susan Kirk! Early bird discount ends soon!

Something I haven't managed to do for a while, but here's a link for @cbuckthorn.bsky.social www.atlasobscura.com/places/marco...

I thought Norovirus was supposed to involve a couple of days of extreme unpleasantness then clear up, not several days of low-moderate nastiness (no end to it yet).

PayPal crashed when making a payment and I got no confirmation email from the vendor. Uncertain as to whether the payment was correctly recorded I asked for confirmation and got the following... 1/2
