We've been cut off from the rest of the world since Thursday. It's not that there is too much snow – it's too warm and the wet, heavy snow turns into something akin to mud. It's 8 kilometres back and forth to the only store in the area and the chances of getting through in any of the cars we have left are poor (the 4WD was supposed to be fixed last week but wasn't). This is nothing to worry about – we have enough food supplies for at least two weeks, we have power, water, and internet.

"To serve users at the 75th percentile of devices and networks, we can now afford ~150KiB of HTML/CSS/fonts and ~300-350KiB of JavaScript (gzipped).
...
Meanwhile, sites continue to send more script than is reasonable for 80+% of the world's users, widening the gap between the haves and the have-nots.
This is an ethical crisis for the frontend. When digital is the default, slow is exclusionary."

Gotta love tech journalists who describe Mastodon as "that impossible-to-use website." First of all, it's an app. C'mon. Second of all, aren't these the same people who write breathless explainers about the wonder of cryptocurrencies, which are not only impossible to understand but literally built from bullshit?

I don't mean to offend anyone. It's really not sacrilegious. Just kinda funny.

@gavinsmallbeerpress Best Christmas wish list I’ve ever read. Merry Christmas Gavin, may all your wishes come true.
This is me defining in a picture, the Canadian meaning of “open carry”.
Not the best weather for a walk. It's not cold enough, the snow is wet. #IdąPsięta #DogsOfMastodon #Polesia #wetlands

A daily reminder:
Climate Change is a CO2 problem. We will not solve it without drastically cutting fossil fuel emissions.

Actual conversation I had…
Me: Billionaire philanthropy is nothing more than PR. Tax billionaires.
Troll: Lol you trust the Govt to spend our money?
Me: Yes, the Govt is elected by We the People, and therefore is accountable to us and can be voted out.
Troll: Govt is bought.
Me: Bought by who?
Troll: By billionai—...😳
Me: ...🤔
Troll: Ok, Tax billionaires.
This Acer rubrum disrupts the basic colours of our forest. It's an invasive species here in #Polesia, but we won't cut it down. We're an invasive species here too.

You know that horror film staple where the victim is trying to get away from an axe murderer and they turn the key but the car won't start?
Well, it's time to upgrade that trope, so to speak

I hate when kids learn Santa isn’t real because they’re one step away from figuring out I’m not real either.
