Yes, all that pointing!!! It was absolutely required for all ads back then. ROTFL! What's up with the kid pointing at a screen that has nothing displayed on it?

Anyone from #Sydney and/or #Singapore here, especially those who made it from The Bad Site? I had to log into it earlier for Hololive stuff, but I can't wait to be able to ditch it. (Maybe I should use one of those services that matches old follows across to here?)

@stilgherrian.com So glad I can follow you here when Other Networks get to be too much! (I also owe some financial contributions too… once the shock from the home loan deposit and first mortgage payment subsides, I’ll set up something recurring).

Mon plan, an update: I have fixed the client's website problem. It was CSS. Because of course it was. What’s the word for when a machine or other creation has been build via an accretion of modifications which no one understands any more?

I keep hoping Cover Corp move their #vtubers over here, but at this rate they’ll all graduate and start where they want of their own accord 🥲

Wow!!!! A friend shared these pictures with me. It's a custom hand made wire wrap Apple II in a gutted PC XT clone case! Found on the "Retro Microcomputers, Workstations, Servers and Consoles" Facebook group.

Someone at this coffee shop talking about how Bluesky is the most-downloaded social app for the last week. I'm on Mastodon (bsd.network/@Rubenerd) most of the time, but I'd *love* if Twitter folk moved here too. Come on #Hololive, open official accounts here, you know you want to!

The Wayback machine is up, the Blog is up, the Mastodon is up. The staff is working intensely to lock down and clean up the site and the goal is to come back, and stay back.

So great to hear you’ve decided to take a stand against book censorship. Does this mean you’ll be dropping your lawsuit against libraries, too?

Mastodon feels like an entirely new space. Very different vibe and people that I followed on the Musk site. Here's hoping Bluesky can replace the Must site. I still have so many friends and Hololive accounts there, but I kinda dread loading it.

In Paris, owners of big, heavy cars will have to pay extra to park. Deputy Mayor: “There are no dirt paths , no mountain roads … SUVs are absolutely useless in Paris. Worse, they are dangerous, cumbersome and use too many resources to manufacture." tinyurl.com/ycyj22pr

Productive Monday was had (a phrase I don't often say!) I do enjoy being able to work from home on the first day of the week, and hanging out with my partner for lunch. You'd have to give me serious incentives to give that up.
