A bunch of various memory - DDR3, 4 and 5 - in a pile. The newer stuff is still in packaging. There's also a pile of M.2 NVMe and M.2 SATA drives next to it. The mat their on has a picture of a black cat.

@prahou@merveilles.town @angel@triptico.com @drew@social.freebitcoin.gay I can't do a logo, but please accept a drawing of two ferrets in an alpine lodge/shack snuggled all cosy and stuff.

An interface with the question "Is your business located in the UK?" and a selection of yes or no. No is selected by default. When Yes is selected, a new input box appears that says "Please state country". So... when we say "Yes the company is in the UK", we get a box asking us to tell us what country we're in. When we select "no" the input box disappears. Basically it looks like the Yes and No options are reversed. At the end of the video, the person types "THE UK!!!!" into the Please state country box.

Look... this just isn't funny any more. If you're going to vibe-code your interface at least fucking look at it and test it and then hurl yourself off the nearest cliff and I'm not even joking.

re: 1000xRESIST discussion. Likely spoilers
two people in a street, one illuminated by a street light and she looks a bit ill. The the background there is a massive glowing red figure, looming over the entire city. it does not have a head, and in place of a head there's a ring of lines, a bit like a crown, I'm not sure what it is yet

the same looming glowing red figure, looking across a city. in the nearground we can just about make out somebody looking out of a window.

@sotolf@polymaths.social I managed to get in another couple of hours yesterday. Learning a lot about the sisters, mother, ancient mother, and the virus.
Not sure what the occupants are yet - I thought when it was first mentioned it was just a name they gave to humans, but since then they've spoken about them being headless, and there was an attack, so I'm thinking it's the massive glowing red things that have jumpscared me a few times as I turn around or look out of a window 🤣
I'm not sure, yet, if we're supposed to be feeling emotional for Iris. as it's terrible what's going on with her and her parents etc. But also she seems a bit of a bad person - maybe misunderstood? Maybe bad choices. We shall see.

Anyway, there are two massive stars in a cave right now and I need to learn to speak like a human apparently (both in the game and out of it 🙃)

My van is in for service today so I get to walk to a client's place!
I should do this more often.

On one hand, I really, really, love #littleFedi's remote instance status page.

On the other hand, it has highlighted that the instance where most people I follow is in a "Failing" state...

You all OK over there at polymaths.social ?

a hand drawn person stood alone in the corner of a party. other people are around the room seemingly dancing and having fun. the caption reads "They don't know I use littleFedi"
