@BenRiceM “postman” is one of the vocations I’m finding hardest to stop saying. “Postal worker” is too generic, “post person” is a bit clumsy, and “postie” is a bit cutesy. I’m going for cutesy until something better comes along.

@iain i remember the time I brought my new (to me) car home to show my parents and my dad offered to wash it for me. All good. Woke up next morning to a dry just for me. After I’d eaten it, my dad revealed that he’d reversed the car back in the night before and left a window open. Thunderstorm overnight. Ruined.

@glennf @mwichary thank you both for making the updates. Maybe I’m the only person silly enough to wonder about it, but I appreciate you taking the time. Congrats on the project; I’m very excited for it.

@ultranurd the left sticker is insecure, the right stick will make you insecure.

@flockofnazguls it’s a great lyric on its own, but the delivery elevates it to greatness.

@glennf @mwichary looking at my summary I still don’t see the 3rd volume, but I’m at the theatre right now and I can’t do anything more than a quick check on my phone. I do believe you though!

@glennf does the original kickstarter pledge include the 3rd volume? I feel like it was added as a stretch goal, but going through BackerKit my pledge level still says “two volumes in slipcase”. Has that pledge text not been updated (or can it even be updated!)?

@oisin I like to blitz them into a paste - less texture to be gurned about but all the flavour.

@joesteel I *think* I’ve still got a couple of boxed versions of it in my archive. I think I miss software coming in those boxes as much as I miss the software itself.

@joshua I got an Amazon delivery notification but was confused because there was no van outside. I’d put the wrong delivery address into the order 🙁

@molten this is great. I’ve been trying to get an Intellijel 1U headphone out for a month or so and it’s always sold out. This could be perfect for my new Palette case.

Motion MTR in 1U? 😉

@ianRobinson hmmmm, technically I did that since I last tried anything but I just haven’t gone back to them. I put a power monitoring plug on the network infrastructure so that’s why it got rebooted.

@ianRobinson I’ve got two HomePod minis that are refusing to appear with 16.4 (on both iOS/HomePod)

@bazscott we’ve still got your back in the north here. I actually worked on Friday but I chose to take Monday/Tuesday rather than Friday/Monday

@liamodunne @bazscott it was a slippery slope when they let the pubs open. Sure if you can drink, then you can work as well!

@dmoren eBooks. Pah. Real books man. There’s something tangible about them. A connection you get with a physical book from turning its pages, that you don’t get from reading the same text on a screen.

Yeah, I started reading The Bayern Agenda this morning. Physical book, of course!
