@alephnull Tusky is good; the only complaint I can think of is that it only connects to a single instance.
Goodnight Octodons.
@ampersand As far as I can tell a) the pilot can kick anyone they like off the plane but b) doing so may be (and in this case was) in breach of the conditions of carriage & c) WTF? Injuring an old man is more important than upping your measly offer of flight vouchers to $1200 cash on the nail? *Someone* would have taken up that offer...
IOW sure: there’s a weasely technical way in which that interpretation is true & a zillion ways in which that’s completely irrelevant.
@ampersand It’s the “*I* am a good person who makes good decisions and therefore nothing like this can ever happen to me because things like this only happen to *bad* people” distortion field in action.
@NeuroWinter @SuzanEraslan There are some nerdy videos about the props for GitS (made by Weta workshop) on Adam Savage’s YouTube channel (Tested) which look amazing. But sadly it sounds like they were the only good thing about the film.
Todays fun: making hexaflexagons!
Quietly crossing fingers for the new Luc Besson film (Valerian & ...). Loved “The Fifth Element” to bits.
Joining octodon is forcing me to work on my (very rusty) French. This is probably a good thing?
Completing the internet ouroboros: I made a MetaFilter post about https://mastodon.cloud/@MASTERBOOTRECORD after seeing it here on masto, because I have fallen hard hard in love with their music over the last couple days.

I wonder if I can turn off everyone's animated gif avatars. It's annoying.
@sysadmin1138 The severance agreement that was put before me started off by including a non-disparagement clause that extended not only to my past interactions with the institution in question, but all future ones too. That clause met my :unamused: face.
@Leonore5506 @ikea_femme The admin sees all, hears all, embraces all.
Twitter is currently trying to advertise a domestic services staffing agency to me. I think they have entirely the wrong idea about my income bracket.
So, how does this work then?
