OMG, it's a rare and valuable PRNTING edition!

@vitskapsdama

Welcome!

Looks like you already know about the importance of using (and following) hashtags, so I've got nothing else to add beyond "Have a great time!".

@Fissile @anderseknert

Is there a snappy phrase that encapsulates that? Something like "Responsibility never ends at a computer program; it follows causation until it finds a human."? (but one that flows better).

@SpiritualAnnie @MJmusicinears @gottalaff.bsky.social

Genuinely appreciate your fact-checking of news. We all wish this were true, but I still want to live in reality.

@lucien @hpod16

The Fediverse has a great collection of techies creating the protocols and infrastructure. What we're missing is the folks helping regular people use it.

Hopefully folks like Hannah will start creating that layer. Not just through advocacy, but by hiring staff dedicated to helping people use it.

AI generated. Please label it as such. Thanks.

Wacky, but doesn't beat the article where they compared the sound of digital music files stored on an NTFS file system versus those stored on an ext3 file system.

I can't remember which one won, but one of them reliably had a richer, fuller sound.

Came here looking for "you wouldn't hate a lawnmower, would you?". Thanks for keeping things real.

@lemgandi @garius

Fuck Oracle and all, but if they don't know how to put a constraint on a column I gotta wonder if there was ever any hope.....

@anearthboundmisfit

Welcome. I love all the nature photos people post here ️

@imp3tuz @CathyBikesBook

Great read, thanks for posting it

Was it by testing resistance by putting it in parallel with a car battery? Because that's what 10 year old me did.

@SpiritualAnnie

It's been years since I've been in a Sears, and I'd forgotten how they had *everything*, even in the suburbs.

@jeffska

I'm a card-carrying member of both the ACLU and the Radio Shack Battery-Of-the-Month club.

@jimmorack

Makes sense. I'm a spry 63 (), and I saw them, but they were gone by the time I was old enough to have used one.

@Nazani

Good Lord! Do you mind saying when and where this was? Because "dog sled" was not something I expected people to include in their response to this.

@SpiritualAnnie

Nice. What kind of store was it? Because the one I saw was at the grocery store (in SoCal), and when I say that it sounds unbelievable.

@FuturisticRobert

You're taking to someone who has a still growing collection of slide rules.

Also, to address your last paragraph, this has unintentionally turned into me trawling for new accounts to follow. Glad you took the bait.

@FuturisticRobert

You're the reason I put all the "retro" hashtags on my post.
