Aha, we have reached the “Okay, now what does _this_ error message say?” portion of this afternoon’s presentation.

Nintendo should call it the Super Switch.

It’s not that my dog has opinions about the weather, but he has taken my umbrella from the bucket by the door and brought it back to his crime nest.

new tf2 update is awesome

In the event of a Cthulhuloid apocalypse, areas of non-Euclidean geometry may open up and will suddenly fill with coal. This is because fuels rush in where angles fear to tread.

The two hardest problems in computing are naming things, cache invalidation, off-by-one errors, writing beyond original buffers, fear, surprise and an almost fanatical devotion to the pope.

I am a former incarcerated firefighter. I served in a California fire camp from 2009 to 2012. Misinformation is afire on the internet, so here are facts about the prison firefighter program, all in one place. A thread.

The walls of Fort Arsehole have never fallen while he stands guard.

As CES reports roll up, you should pay attention to the things with release dates and prices. Almost everything else is a prototype and has as much relevance a real product as London Fashion Week does to H&M.

“How far can a Late Night host get before making a crack at Trump’s weight as a measure of his worth” as a sign to move on massively lowered my YouTube habit during his first administration.

Notch is a racist. Notch is a misogynist. Notch is a homophobe and transphobe. Do not give Notch your support. Do not give Notch your money.

No one is finally dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away. But also, once Hank Green used it in a rapid-fire non-attributed jokes video, I kind of feel like I lost it forever.

On the first day of christmas, the fates bestowed on me: An email from HMRC!

If you send me two non-transactional emails in a week, and I notice it, I will immediately unsubscribe from your marketing emails. Even if I love your brand, even if its christmas, even if the current deals will never be offered again. I will unsubscribe, and I will forget you exist.

If you are a fan of powerful and evil empires whose power is attributed to a man who hasn't done anything with them for fuckin' ages, then you should know that your Amazon Prime subscription's "Prime Gaming" site will currently get you some free Warhammer 40k games for a limited period.

To be honest, Jira, the idea that I could “never miss an update again!” is less an incentive than you might think.

I sense a disturbance in the force, as if fifty five million people all made a sign that once vaguely resembled an umbrella all at once.

I support my trans friends because they are humans. It's the same playbook as used down the centuries, against homosexuality, feminism, colour, religion. We don't ever solve those problems entire - but we love and support until they find a new target, and hope they eventually move on to themselves.

My friend can’t stop reciting the script from Hitchcock’s most famous horror movie, apparently it’s Psychosomatic

Some maths: 3 million people signing a petition for a new general election is less than the number of people who voted for the Liberal Democrats in the last GE, who got roughly half the votes of the conservatives. It's also only slightly greater than the number of votes that the Tories lost by.

The hotel room I’m in this week has a small kitchen, and also had a scheduled power cut overnight. So the first thing I did in the morning was to fix the clock on the oven, which is apparently all you need to know about me as a person.

This caught me off guard.

Apparently today is "World Kindness Day", which does explain how Rish! was able to sack Braverman, as her powers were at her lowest ebb.

If you generate something with AI, I don't look at it. Just no interest. I'm completely in the "if no one could be bothered to make this, I'm not going to bother to look at it" camp.

Obligatory dog photo.

Just setting up my bsky.
