@zackslab @_Stocko_ @_wallfacer @grok Mostly armless

@_Stocko_ @_wallfacer @grok can you remove the firearms from this image and keep everything else as is?

Mentally I'm here

@GregTomaselli @IamKyros69 Used a dev pack on an exidy sorcerer to write a string saver so that you effectively saved a snapshot of an application to cassette.

@IamKyros69 Back then you basically had to mail-order a $400 manual or type in 10 pages of machine code from a magazine just to get ‘Hello World’ on screen 😂 What’s the wildest thing you ever typed in by hand that actually worked?

How did people even learn to code when there was no docs, no YouTube… nothing? Genuinely curious.

@AppleTV .mmmnnn

Jason Momoa stars in this epic saga of Hawaiʻi's untold story. 1 August on Apple TV+

@George_Roberts @LG_Australia They are the worst. Took months to get a refund on a doa cooktop.

After ongoing problems getting resolution with @LG_Australia over a dud vacuum cleaner that didn’t work from day 1, they called me back and said the line was being recorded. I said “OK, can I please record it too?” I was told I couldn’t for “privacy reasons” then they cut me off!

@stedmanhalliday What works for me is a footstool under the desk. Half the day my legs are on it. Forces my upper body and head back in the chair. Bit like sitting in a sports car where you legs are relatively high.

How to fix Nerd Neck 🪄 By popular demand, here's a thread of tips for addressing this increasingly common issue.

@jommy_tee More like blatant corruption. Paid off by the gambling lobby. Such a disappointing Labor government.

@flaviocopes When you spend most of your time on maintenance and updates as some of us do, you really appreciate the truth of this.

@StickyD710 @SteveDeaceShow How is that contradictory? Democrats know they can beat Trump. Democrats can't steal the election. That means they'll win by the numbers.

@Renmarkable1 @madilana @brownecfm Available now google.com/url?sa=t&sourc…

@madilana @brownecfm no if more than 6 months if you've had your vac in feb and are under 65 you're not allowed to access it I spent a morning with 2 different health depts

1. I had a large electrical appliance delivered and installed at my home today. When the delivery van pulled up, I was waiting at my front door, wearing a respirator, as always. One of the two guys shouted over to me, 'you don't have Covid, do you'?

What's an album you fell in love with instantly on first listen? twitter.com/Picketer/statu…

@newsycombinator Absolutely. When doing maintenance on existing codebases abstraction, can create obscurity and slow you down.

@herrold @CynicalPublius @MaxBoot Things that never happened.

@CynicalPublius @MaxBoot The earlier firearms 'roundup' made it much easier for the Australian government to later (just last year) 'round up' COVID vaccine refusers, and to keep them confined

Surprisingly enough, the response to mass shootings in other countries isn’t limited to “thoughts and prayers.” washingtonpost.com/world/2021/03/…

@JRubinBlogger Loose is roomy lose is failure ffs

This issue alone will loose the election for them. If you don't get that, you're in denial - and need to spend more time talking to women

@jimdoherty09 @DrEricDing One notable victim of this treatment the wonderful Joseph Schmidt.

@DrEricDing Not to mention the Swiss’ brutal treatment of Allied internees versus their kid gloves for Nazis. There’s no doubt who they wanted to win

Ironic—Swiss National Bank🏦 offers to bailout Credit Suisse bank… but not compensate WW2 victims when it held $8Bil in Hitler’s Nazi gold, half looted! ➡️Who else thinks victims of Nazi theft should be paid reparations from Swiss🇨🇭National Bank first? bloomberg.com/news/live-blog…

@MoistenedTart An ounce of arse is worth a ton of skill.

@AmyRemeikis I've got two triples in mine so I go "blah-blah-blah, triple-blah, triple-blah, blah" Live with it. Most people get it.

People who don't give their phone number in the four three three format are the true chaos merchants in our lives and need to be watched carefully

@PepperstoneFX Bring back the Hopman cup (to Australia)

The inaugural United Cup brings together the best ATP and WTA players right here in Australia - across Brisbane, Sydney and Perth. See the moves, stay composed. Advantage Trader.

@Pollytics Possibly time to switch to water?

Domesticated cats should only be allowed to be owned in Australia with licenses, and they must ought be isolated from roaming. That's either 100% indoors, or a fully 180 degree outdoor prison run. All cats found outside of those circumstances should be ethically euthanised.

Real Bolognese uses milk. The best curries the world has ever known come from Indonesia There's over 10,000 ingredients humans use for food. When some place gets over 2000, then we can talk about cultural appropriation of food. Until then, we're all fucking amateurs.

@AmyRemeikis Not to mention the problem of "promiscuous access to education". Perish the thought that the proletariat be educated. This bloke belongs in the 18th century.

This isn’t even an original toxic take. It’s one Fox News pundits started immediately after the mid-term results began becoming clear
