What about a registry which shows _who_ is using each key? Just so you can notify them if you ever do find it being used.

We need more suggestions to explore just how far her transfem music taste goes in this next upcoming session, heh. Know a few cis people we've got into one or two transfem artists, but 4 in a row, who she listened to before knowing us, we're still laughing internally at how low the odds have to be.

Extremely distracting advert to put on the back of a bus, at least for certain people.

The back of a CTtransit bus. The advert on the back has a photo, then from floor level of a car, of a woman who is driving while being gripped on one write by a large purple tentacle, attempting to pull her towards a larger mass of tentacles in the floor area. Next to it is the text: "every distraction is a beast, don't be its next victim"

"Ran when parked" actually works for code as well as cars. Like "that PR someone opened 18 months and a major version ago, that you now want to merge" in the code sense.

Whether you think software development is 90% coding, 90% testing and debugging, or 90% politics says a lot.

@ScarletAstrorum on X:

every creative hobby has its own ‘90% sanding’:

sewing – 90% ironing
baking – 90% measuring
fermentation – 90% waiting.

Quoting @Duderichy:
woodworking sounds really cool until you find out it’s 90% sanding.

Matter is such a piece of shit protocol. It's clearly designed for people who have everything on the same L2 network, and it's a massive pain to actually make working in a sane environment (e.g. HA on k8s on one VLAN, IOT Shit on another). Anyone know how to make it actually work?
