“I'm so embarrassed. I wish everybody else was dead.”

I had Chick-fil-A breakfast today (sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit, hash browns, coffee, and orange juice). Then at lunch my work place offered hot dogs. I had two (kosher, if that matters), plus a coke, a macadamia nuts cookie, and a small chocolate brownie.

So, here I am, at home, feeling hungry but guilty and refusing to eat anything else for the rest of the day. To top it off, I have only clocked 4,000 steps today (and I don’t feel like walking). I am going to hell, am I?

"Here’s what we do know: After their meeting ended and Vice President Vance left the room, the pope was still alive. We can deduce that he was alive, because he was heard asking an assistant, “Ho appena incontrato il volto del diavolo?” which roughly translates to, “Have I just encountered the face of the devil?” It’s a very common question that has been asked in many languages after encounters with JD Vance."

I couldn't help but chuckling a bit while reading.

Testing mentions, immediately followed by commas. Let's see: @prologic, this one is local, it might not break. Now, this one @movq, isn't local. Nor this @lyse, one. Will they break. Let's find out!

This is something for @movq and old OS hobbyists alike: FreeDOS 1.4! Get it while it's hot!

Oh dear!

@prologic please reply to this one. I want to make sure I am not seeing a ghost here. 😅

Setting custom primary and secondary colours isn’t working. I tried “red” for first, and “orange” for second. Didn’t work.

The tiny avatars, as expected (because they showed normal to you too @prologic), do not show under macOS’s Safari, but they do show on iOS’s Safari. It truly is a puzzle.

Conduwit is set to archive on GitHub. It was my favourite Matrix server, which I still self host. I think I am going to get off Matrix altogether now.

Maybe go back to Jabber?

@prologic page navigation on profiles (mobile, at least) overlaps the collapsed twtxt text area.

ABC Australia is reporting of a potential market manipulation in the US. Potential? I would call it almost certain. For as much as I would like not to be dragged into politics, it is rather impossible these days.

@bendereapl.me let's see how this mention comes out. I noticed that @kat's pod doesn't have this problem. That is, their mention to you works fine.

One was able to purchase iPhones on instalments (and interest free), whether they were associated with a carrier, or not. The only way to buy them on instalments now is if the are associated with a carrier; otherwise one gets charged the full amount up front.

So, yeah, going to return a couple of those this weekend.

@prologic, is it my idea, or the size of avatars have gotten smaller?

Finally lawn is mowed---well, the one at the front, the wild forest in the back will have to wait a bit longer. I haven't clocked my 10,000 steps today, but what I didn't walking, I did through full body "exercise". Will call it a day. 😅

@kat, your forum (Angel) is dishing out a 502.

@prologic, from IRC:

  1. Saving preferences is failing. Specifically trying to save "Open Links" on the same window. For sure it isn't happening. Check errors on browser's console.
  2. Search results pagination is broken. Search for "twtxt.net" and see it. Also, picking oldest/newest makes no difference on that search query.

Hey, hey, I am back. I lost all my worthless twtxts, but at least I still have the blackjack and hookers!
