@atomicpoet I wish we had those cool toys back then. :) Kinda does look like LEGO yeah.

@idropyou Fantastic. 😅

@knuppelbeer Wie zegt dat de maan niet juist ons de hele tijd zit te moonen en we gewoon verkeerd keken?

@grobmeier 500 characters is a vanilla Mastodon standard. ActivityPub can handle much bigger posts as the non-Mastodon instances already have shown. ;)

The server I'm on, for example, can handle 65k characters. Not that I never needed that much, but hey the option is there! ;)

@atomicpoet The spectrum shouldn't even matter one bit.

She's great because she does a lot of stuff and seem to be enjoying them I understand from you. That's good enough. :)

@rjblaskiewicz Always fun to see those ridiculous moves.

@grobmeier You can search for instances which have a longer post limit? Some Mastodon servers are modified to have a bigger limit. But I also know that servers like ... I think Misskey or Calckey or Pleroma? have a bigger limit by default.

Ooh, it gets even better. So a class wants a laptop, but according to my administration they already have one. Turns out it was collecting dust on one of their shelves, they never bothered to check..

Of course, after more than 3 months of no contact with the network, those devices automatically get kicked out from the network. Now I can send this laptop off to the IT to please add this to the network again. :P

Keeping track of which laptop should be in which classroom is proving to be exceedingly difficult here. Even if it's labeled under the laptop in which class this laptop should be in, it'll still be in a completely wrong classroom!

Or! Get ready for this.. we get the laptop back on our desk with the post-it note on it: We found this in our classroom, oops!
But... the label is telling me that it SHOULD be in that classroom! Why do we get it back?!
And then they still want a laptop.

Help me to make sense out of this please! 😂

@piggo *glugluglu* *ahhhhhhh* Is there more?

@chasalin It doesn't look very succesful to me either. Maybe they should undo their own brexit as well. 😋

@freemo @lucifargundam @icedquinn As soon as it is a 'language' it's not a charade anymore. ;)

@bibliolater @freemo
In preferences>Other, have you tried selecting only the languages you'd like to see? It doesn't eliminate foreign languages as the users posting would have to define them as such too, but it might decrease the amount of foreign languages you see?

@freemo @lucifargundam @icedquinn Charades is harder for us than you think, since we're not allowed to use sign language.. :D

@lucifargundam @freemo @icedquinn Heh heh. In an airplane, on the way to home for Xmas, there was a steward trying to ask me which meal I'd prefer. So he mimed a cow and a chicken in a fun way. I had to laugh. I don't remember which one I chose for my meal. ;)

Miming's fine, as long as it's genuine. :) I've had a few fun encounters with that.

@freemo @icedquinn Ok, that's enough soapbox for me. I have to prepare to go to job, and I get worked up here, lol. Cya!

@freemo @icedquinn I remember at least 3 decades ago, many deaf people want to hide they're deaf. They were ashamed to even use sign language in public. My generation or the one right before mine might be the first ones who are like 'eff it'. Still a bit ashamed for people looking our way but also recalcitrant like staring back and then smiling ridiculously and waving back so the hearies all just look away, embarassed themselves.

@freemo @icedquinn Or what about this:
This deaf moron couldn't understand what I'm saying, they must be a retard.

@freemo @icedquinn Oh, but the problem is exactly because being deaf is not visible enough. You're blind? People help you. Wheelchair? People help you. Deaf? HOW RUDE WHY DID YOU NOT RESPOND TO ME *BAF*

@freemo
So, basically what I just said. :D The same counts for deaf people, you know.
