@tormeh But at least they write it down the same order.

365 in English and 365 in German is still written the same. Just pronounced differently.

Americans can still say 'February 5th' when they write it down as 5-2-2023 :P

Which comes to mind.. why do they not just say '5 February'? The 'February 5th' is just as silly as the way Germans (and Dutchies) say the numbers in the tens.

@tormeh More countries do this. Dutchies do this too. French people even have very special names for certain numbers.

@hvangalen Kan het beamen. Maar wat een ruimte, joh. Totally worth it.

@osfast Dat is praktisch helemaal aan de andere kant van het land. :P

@osfast Geen flauw idee, zo goed ken ik je niet. En als je verhuist, zal ik het ook nooit weten. :D

Ik denk in de eerste groep, tot zover toe.

Ik ken anders genoeg homos zonder dramas. ;)

Granted.. ik ken ook genoeg dramatische homos. :P

@osfast Mm, een instance die ons blockt omdat hun admin nogal emotioneel ongebalanceerd is. Fun. ;)

@tripu Fun, I got the same score. Of some I thought 2 answers could fit the situation nicely so it was kinda guessing sometimes.

During break I told the teacher what happened earlier. And she already knows. During teaching she was wondering why her laptop kept making a 'ping' sound, and she recalled that she gave the mouse to us and concluded that must be the reason.

See, every time I turned on the mouse in order to try to connect it to the new receiver, it reconnected with her laptop instead which made that sound. 😂

We got a spare wireless mouse from the classroom next to this office. I had to pair it to another Unifying receiver to create a new set. But whatever I tried, it refused to connect. Everything else I had would pair up fine, but this one mouse just wouldn't.

I went to fetch the original receiver from the classroom to see if it was still paired with the mouse. It was, so I unpaired it and now the mouse could connect to the new receiver fine. Everything finally worked like a charm and I returned the original receiver.

And, um... since the classroom's workspace was right behind the wall behind me... I realized I might've inadvertently done shenanigans with the teacher's laptop. She didn't notice it because she was busy teaching, but I hope I didn't accidentally remove any emails! 😬

In hindsight it was pretty hilarious. 😋

@Lunatech I love coca cola, but I don't think they have HFCS here, it's just not an European thing.

Though I switched over to the supermarket sugar-free brand that almost tastes as good and is half the price...

I'll always love Coca Cola.. and will just get it when I'll eat out (which is maybe once a year, heh).

Also, real fruit juice isn't really that healthy or good for you. Maybe a bit if they are pulpy, but otherwise they're almost as bad as normal sodapop. You're better off eating fruit as-is, or just drink water/tea.

@lydiaconwell Got TNG and DS9 DVDs here. DS9 being my absolute favorite.

@mur2501 Oh wow, that sucks. 🙁 How'd that happen? Any chance of recovery?

@falken
Yeah, check the about page of a server and scroll down to see a list of moderated servers.

If they hide who they are blocking, that's a red flag as they're probably blocking half the Fediverse at that point.

@freemo

@benkirssen Because Qoto refuses to block other servers easily.

Some instances block other instances which won't block the same as they do. Qoto doesn't join in that mindset.

@benkirssen Just a FYI: Mastodon.art blocks qoto, and they won't be seeing your toot.
