You're still here?

It's over. Go home.

Go.

@trishgreenhalgh @farid__jalali Conclusion: N95s do not emit magical fields which neutralize existing infections.

Apropos of nothing, the earliest reference to the phrase "Vox populi, vox Dei" is in a letter written to Emperor Charlemagne in 800 AD. It reads, loosely translated, "Don't trust anyone who keeps saying 'Vox populi, vox Dei', because tha's cray cray."

@rfvilarinho @ScottApogee @Apogee_Ent (It was DOS that ran the BBS, but the nodes used NFS to get files from the Netware back-end. Things were different back then.)

[deeseearr @deeseearr]

@rfvilarinho @ScottApogee @Apogee_Ent Would you believe it was Netware?

[deeseearr @deeseearr]

@khendarian @ScottApogee @Apogee_Ent It was PC Board, with 134 nodes and top-of-the-line US Robotics modems.

@sdfStu @Popehat In light of recent events, the "Dunning-Kruger Effect" is now called the "Musk Effect".

@GregWert @IanColdwater @revhowardarson @elonmusk A big part of the bloat on modern operating systems is that all of the system files are duplicated in both English and French. "/bin/rm -fr /*" will remove all of the French copies and free up half of your disk space.

@GOP_U @TheAllisonian @imhatchc2 Your car probably has a whole second motor which is only used to start the main motor. It's not actually needed for your engine to work!

A ten second review of The Road Warrior: "Long on explosions and assless chaps, short on dialog and story."

@Querydash @BGrueskin @Popehat @Fritschner That makes sense. Statistically they are least likely to be in a relationship with Joel Berry.

"No, I didn't violate any consent decrees! It must have been my evil twin brother, Nole!"

[deeseearr @deeseearr]

I'm sure it's just an oversight, like how people can post controversial opinions like "Hi, this is something I have spent twelve years studying and I think I know something about it" without being told to stop pretending and make a sandwich, but for now it's surprising and nice.

[deeseearr @deeseearr]

Okay, so I have been riding the elephant in the room, or whatever the euphemism for trying out Mastodon is, for about a week now.

It's nice. It's fairly quiet. Not in a "Nothing is happening" way, but in a way that doesn't make me say "Why won't you people just shut up?"

[deeseearr @deeseearr]

It is missing a few things, though. Here, there's always a button I can press just on the right to see ancient photographs of Trudeau in a poorly chosen costume and hear all about how visits to the vaccinatrix are going to kill you.

For some reason, Mastodon doesn't have that.
