  Yeah, I make good use of the Hidden Posts section in the profile page on Voyager, every time the feed refreshes for no good reason.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨One new message!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh god, I’ve just remembered a time on holiday when he went to bite into a perfectly innocuous hamburger, and discovered a single slice of tomato. He was so outraged he threw up on his plate.

  That was fun.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨One new message!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  When my kid was four and refusing to go to bed, he once stood at the top of the stairs, holding tight to the stair gate, looked me dead in the eye, and shit himself.

  On the one hand I was impressed with the show of superiority, but on the other, I did briefly consider having him adopted.

  So yeah, I get it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is the UK falling out of love with social media?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I keep it for Messenger and because sometimes I need to flog my old shit on Marketplace. But yeah, I’ve not posted on there regularly since 2019.

  Meanwhile, I’m almost always on Mastodon and Lemmy.

  Nokia 3310s.

  It’s all good, my dude.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the deal with people liking old devices?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Particularly when it’s an old Mac that Apple obsoleted years ago, but which still runsimux perfectly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨it really do be like that⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sundresses are wicked lovely to wear. I can heartily recommend it to any guys who are worried about doing so.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Government to make “plug-in solar” available within months⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Cool. As a tenant I’ll finally be able to take advantage of solar power without having to beg my landlord to have it fitted.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Frying chicken? Taking a leak? It's a mystery. 🤔⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And you cannot change my mind.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Developers Were Left in the Dark About DLSS 5⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My Sony MDR-7506 are studio quality reference headphones, and they only cost me £80.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨funny number⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
  1. Or 7.
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨funny number⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I used to work for the company that made those cards. One of the best jobs I’ve ever had, because the manager was cool as fuck.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t like how sad the sandwich looks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Hard-Line Cleric Who Made Iran a Regional Power, Dies at 86⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe that was also true when the missile landed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Democracy'? UK blocks access to Iranian media⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep, works fine for me too, on the south coast of England.

  Has anyone checked the author’s wifi connection?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am an amateur propagandist. A hobbyist. Enthusiast, if you will.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m choosing to interpret this as the regular people’s kids have armed up and are hunting down Trump and Netanyahu’s kids.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox Co-founder Says Microsoft is Quietly Sunsetting the Platform⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s not Microsoft’s problem.

  (I agree with you)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox Co-founder Says Microsoft is Quietly Sunsetting the Platform⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I saw a thread the other day, something like “What low-level conspiracies do you genuinely believe”; to which someone replied that they believe that OpenAI is being speedrun to bankruptcy in order for Microsoft to buy their data centres for pennies on the dollar.

  And yeah, it all kinda seems that could be a credible outcome, at which point MS will have a huge amount of equipment all ready to serve game streaming to people who can no longer afford to buy a home computer to do the same.

  Is it going to happen? shrug

  Could it? Absolutely.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨South of Midnight won Best Character Animation at the 53rd Annie Awards⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I enjoyed it enormously.

  Can anyone post a link to the material being referenced here, so I can decide whether to warn my church group about it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yes, that's the plural⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And I’m glad I attended this Breaking Bad convention.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just getting into a little bit of Troubles⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I prefer it when it’s sung by an Alan Partridge impersonator on the BBC.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Australia investigating Carnival luxury cruise line following allegations workers live in overcrowded conditions with no water, earning as little as $2.50 an hour.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Carnival also own Cunard (sadly), and Cunard are a luxury line.

  Well, they were back when I worked for them…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The radical woke subliminal message in Bad Bunny's halftime performance⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s a cricket ground near me called the Hampshire Rosebowl. At least, that’s what it was called when it was built.

  Since then it’s been sponsored by a series of insurance or finance firms, so has officially been known as The <FIRM_NAME> Bowl.

  But not to me. Nope. It’ll always be the Rosebowl.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Send HOAs To the Stone Age⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It always amuses me that the US - the land of the free, the home of the brave - has a fair proportion of its people living in homes over which they have significantly less control than basically everyone else in the world has over theirs.
