Hmm If memory servers now that we've hit 2026, it will have been 40 yrears since I got my hands on Turbo Pascal at School and I finally found something I liked in school.

Amazing how one's grades go up when there's something to look forward to.

Conversation just came across:

"Wah nobody engages with me. Mastodon is ghost town."

Other person: "You need to post more to get people to interact."

"No way spammer" BLOCK

For the longest time, I've read stories of the USPS slowness and thought how weird because they had always been fast (before DeJoy wrecked it). And I always dreaded when fedex got one of my packages because they're like molasses and leave stuff at the neighbors.
Come today and its going to take […]

I overlooked it was smaller than a regular keyboard. Keys weren't in the […]

@paninid heh guilty. If there's a picture of an animal in something I post there is 99% chance that I shared it because I liked the picture and thought someone else might too.

Oh boy this is what we need. A national address by someone that says something on camera and 10 mins later is saying he never said it.

'"It’s bad for the consumer, it’s bad for the creative community,” Ellison said. “We’re sitting here trying to save it.”'

Bad for the creative community? Its been said that there would be few if any layoffs with Netflix because there's no crossover in the two companies

So when it comes to Trump's war on drugs, foot soldiers get attacked on the sea and then when clinging to rubble they're bombed again. And the leaders who actually get all the money and give the orders get pardons.

weird how Hegseth went from ordering it to not knowing about it.

Kinda like how the DOJ didn't show the Comey indictment but then they did show the indictmen

If you have 45 seconds, could you listen to this audio and let me know which of the three clips you think sounds best? (First, second, or third? They're each about 15 seconds.)

I'm fiddling with my audio editing, and I've listened to them so many times I've lost all perspective.
