That’s why we love ‘em innit You should be able to hear this photo 🤣 (it was beyond their scheduled snacktime)

A view over my shoulder of my cats on the floor behind me. Willie, the tabby, is sitting and giving me a meaningful look. Smoke, an impish dark brown medium hair cat, is up on her feet, facing my back, has motion blur, has a floofy swooshy tail, and is shouting at me

Reasonable. Guy is clearly wasting away. Second breakfast indicated. Also, the ear tufts! Magnificent! My previous tabby boi Monty had them too, but only tiny ones

eBay garbage, do not buy. CE04 doesn't even have an ignition key thingy; it stays in your pocket. You never actually use it unless you also get the matching lockable luggage #motosky

@symbo1ics.bsky.social you know any web gadgets for identifying typefaces in a picture? I photographed this one recently because it reminded me of … something. Blade Runner, maybe. I found this typesetinthefuture.com/2016/06/19/b... But nothing in that (very detailed!) page seems to match :-(

The #cats seem to be enjoying their improved charging station. Had a custom cabinet made to sit behind the chair and match the window sill height. This should give them a most-of-the-day/all-year sunny spot.

Willie, a white/tabby shorthair cat, and Smoke, a dark brown medium hair cat, resting lazily on a dark green chair. Willie is mostly in the sun while Smoke is currently shaded. The chair faces away from a window. The custom cabinet is not directly visible but is covered in a plush folded blanket that is currently fully bathed in sun. Sheer white curtains partly enclose the blanket like a bower.

old pic from before it was sold to developers and ruined. The Sirius apartments in their original, unruined form was wonderful, one of my favourite #Sydney buildings

The iconic Sirius apartments adjacent to the southern end of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. It is a classic brutalist design, all rectangles with inset windows. It appears as one building but is composed of several vertical "stacks" of apartments, and the stacks are not all equal height, so the top is stepped. The rooftop appears to have gardens

worst for me was my KTM 990SMR. Conceptually brilliant (motard dialed up to 11!) but a solid granite g-string for a seat and an wildly inadequate cooling system made it unusable in both city AND extra-urban riding Every time I see an HP2 Megamoto I regret not buying one when they were new 😭

amplified it two days later (@(#)reboot.c 5.13 (Berkeley) 10/30/91), and everybody who touched the code since then just perpetuated it.

Don’t think for a single millisecond that similar shenanigans aren’t happening in real life at Neuralink #cyberpunk2077

Screenshot from Cyberpunk 2077 mission. The text says:
“Note to self: The team is ready to present new versions of the deltaid musculoskeletal implant. Prototypes have been printed and testing will proceed soon. The problem, as usual, is the budget. If Cytech prioritizes a competitive market price, we'll likely have to nix the models with integrated neural safeguards. It's possible we'll also have to use an older version of our programming drivers. Once again, my plan for an additional coupling socket has been ignored by the higher-ups:
"face the facts, Rihanna, we have to cut costs." I'm not gonna let this stop me again. I build a prototype, run a few sims, and if 1 get it even close to the budget cutoff they'll have to at least consider it”
