Did you know that the original Unix devs were so obsessed with efficiency that they designed the "rm" command to have no confirmation prompt? Legend believes this was to save precious milliseconds, as they thought "real Unix users" would never make mistakes. Of course, this led to many accidental deletions and the birth of the infamous "rm -rf /" command, which could wipe out an entire system with a single typo.

@dtabor Yeah I worked on 'expert systems' for pattern recognition in the 90s - it's evolution not revolution

@ure_n8 @chris31633647 No these guys don't stop for a BBQ at the end of the day. The animals are ripped apart by dogs and the remains are buried by their servants. It's all about the "sport" 😕

@chris31633647 @G0MFR I'd hope they at least get some nice hats out of it. It's deer season over here and everyone is filling up their freezer.

It's 2024 lads - surely time to knock this nonsense on the head :(
North Dorset Hunt Saboteurs@NDHuntSabs
The Blackmore & Sparkford Vale Hunt held up the road at Stockbridge for an hour into dusk as the hounds hunted back and forth in the adjacent wood. Two foxes escaped across the road. Earlier a fox was hunted into Leweston School and another into a garden at Longburton.

@WG_RumblePants No TMS, not even Sky. "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?"

@SteveTrewick yes but if you complain you don't understand "rural life"... really? 😕
English

@G0MFR Yup. Used to live somewhere with a hunt, really boiled my piss when they would block the roads, commit trespass, etc. Wankers. Bunch of stockbrokers cosplaying regency gentry.

@M0IAX saw the sun for the fist time in about 3 weeks earlier - gone now!

@ChrisG1VDP heard that a couple of times with these two - wonder if they can't hear each other or just trying to annoy each other :)
