@GwilymLockwood Did that used to be known as Twitter lookup?

[Tim Beard @TimBeard42]

@rickygervais Yup, 2016 was a shitty year

For someone that loves Tableau and has had dealings with Oracle, "Salesforce promises to follow the Oracle playbook" is a deeply depressing headline.

Buy companies with decent products and let them wither is Oracle's playbook.

@ChrisLuvPhoto @CameraFV5 Allegedly one should be findable whatever server you're on.
It's also unclear for me how moderation should be any better that Musk's "free speech". Seems to depend on each server.

@ChrisLuvPhoto Wow! Very nice. The clouds were playing ball too. How long an exposure was needed for the water?

[Tim Beard @TimBeard42]

@ChrisLuvPhoto My first thought was "how long did he have to wait for that?" Then my brain turned on and realised you could just shift left and right

[Tim Beard @TimBeard42]

@ChrisLuvPhoto In this case black and white, but maybe show that one first, then colour. Going from colour to BW diminishes the second picture initially.

@stephenfry Nope, just minister. One can only be prime minister amongst other ministers.

[Tim Beard @TimBeard42]

Is a Prime Minister without any ministers still the prime minister, or just the minister?

@BorisJohnson #BorisJohnson

@ChrisLuvPhoto Keep that one to bring out for the wedding when it comes

[Tim Beard @TimBeard42]

@ChrisLuvPhoto Very nice!

@ChrisLuvPhoto Re bluebell pics. I use Bing wallpaper on my PC and they're being simply obnoxious today with a pic of bluebells in Herts

[Tim Beard @TimBeard42]

@ChrisLuvPhoto There doesn't seem to be any obvious alternatives. One I found was @joinmastodon , but they're having technical issues at the moment. Probably can't cope with the exodus from Twitter.

@Twitter PLEASE PLEASE don't sell to Elon! You'll turn the platform into a complete toilet.

@DataRevelations Agree 100% about "for others". It's also 80% of the reason why I'm vaccinated.
Then again, "FREEDUM!!!". Or something like that.

[Tim Beard @TimBeard42]

@ChrisLuvPhoto Aha! Forget my previous question :)

[Tim Beard @TimBeard42]

@ChrisLuvPhoto Together, they definitely say "England".
Do you know the species of the butterfly and bird, by the way?

@ChrisLuvPhoto I can imagine. The impression is a solid field of blue/purple, but the density of the flowers seems much thinner when you take a snap
