Just seen a pharmacist that actually says apothecary on it ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

I'm wondering whether the inflatable tyre made from rubber and fabric is really the best way of levitating our vehicles, or whether simply no one has tried looking for a better way due to inertia.

As much as I appreciate the credit they give me by never having a "previously on Better Call Saul" section, I don't deserve the credit and can't remember shit

Been using mastodon all this time and didn't know @Gargron had an xmpp web client too

Is it excessively cynical to suggest that terrorist attacks are performed by the government as an excuse to control us even more?

I have a better idea.

1. Hide all toots
2. Show those in the user's selected language
3. Allow the user to specify other languages they speak
4. Mark all toots by that user as being in all those languages

This should filter out the majority of toots, leave only a few false positives, and not require the user to filter out a hundred languages they've never heard of.

Masto is great but if we keep getting overblown, silly ideas it's going to fall apart fast

There is a bug report in for the fact the masto process runs as root

github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/

Docker does not *have* to run processes as root, so mastodon should not

I see many admins are using Docker for their Mastodon instance. There's no problem in that, it seems so simple, etc. But think about that : process are running using ROOT. And by default, there's no namespaces, so a root user in a Docker container HAS THE SAME PRIVILEGES as the root user on the host. With the amount of technology used my Mastodon, it is INSANE to run it as root.

To defeat the idea of intelligent design people point to how the anus is next to the vagina, which is not intelligent at all.

And yet my backspace key is next to my enter key.

Checkmate, atheists.

I keep coming back to my Windows PC like, oh shit I hope I saved everything.

Because it keeps fucking restarting.

Because I don't have control over my PC.

Because I'm running Windows.

Trust me, if I could run these things in Linux I would.

I guess I don't post too often.

Here are today's things.

1. Thank you for using CW for all the political shit I can't avoid on birbsite

2. This one level of Doom is so hard I've stopped recording the episode because it's stressful

3. I'm still stoked that I got Holy Mantle on the Lost run when doing the rerun achievement in Afterbirth+ last night

whom.st just makes me think of Robin Hood Daffy: "I am he for whomst thou seekest!"
