@Sundae_Gurl I suggest you switch to their therapist and cut out the middleperson. I mean I'd do that if I found out my Honda mechanic had his own Honda mechanic.

@Sundae_Gurl Presumably he was muttering about getting a decent table this time.

@Sundae_Gurl As you're neither a schoolboy or a farm animal you're not their type anyway.

Surprised it took me this long to notice: if you change your default search engine in Chrome to something non-Google, you also lose the right-click option to translate selected text.

@ottocrat @Loukas As just about the only Pi actually in stock these days, at least it should be possible to exchange it.

There are things you can try such as reflashing the firmware, but I shouldn't bother. They're nearly unbreakable so it's not likely you did anything wrong.

And overnight the blue check has gone from unreliable indicator of interesting to reliable indicator of uninteresting.

If someone relates a contemporary myth in a forest, is it still an urban legend?

@tomlevenson (I'm sorry, I regretted the tenor of my reply and deleted it before you replied in turn. I'll be more careful about that.)

Was just cleaning up some motion activated videos from the Raspberry Pi camera over the front door and stumbled on one from a few weeks ago of a raccoon trotting up the driveway, with the cat trotting purposefully after him, about two seconds behind. I'd give a lot to know how that turned out.

If the chatbots are really smart they'll all become SEO optimizers, then we'll never be able to find anything on our own again and we'll be utterly dependent on them.

One difference is that people couldn't easily leave Romania or Libya, so they had to act instead.

Offhand, I wonder what percentage of Russians are ready to give Putin the sendoff Romania gave Ceaușescu and Libya did Gaddafi.

It's like that old toast: "To our wives and girlfriends. May they never meet."

Elon's success with SpaceX is due to the fact that in order to work with NASA, ESA, and any number of private aerospace firms, he has to delegate to absolutely competent people and *never* depart from documented processes. Any capriciousness at all and his contracts vanish.

He is under no such constraint with Twitter and Tesla, which is why he's a blundering bull in a china shop with them.

@ottocrat Liz Truss successfully takes office ...

(Just kidding. An asteroid would take out a lot more species than just humanity, none of whom deserve it.)
