I’m not sure any software makes me feel as good about computers as spreadsheets do.

@jsnell have they got into the modern era where we can examine the alt timeline for the iMac Pro that the latest episode of Upgrade got me thinking about? 😉

@ianRobinson not on your life! Those folks are doing my dream job. I’d love to spend my entire time building flat pack!

@ianRobinson this was what arrived for us on Sunday. Just one wardrobe left to build!

I don’t mind getting an item from IKEA that has been returned and repackaged as new, but it’d be nice if they had checked that the returned materials included all parts. The instruction booklet was in two parts, one part folded, the parts packet arrived ripped open, and the parts were wrong (as compared to the booklet).

@ultranurd doesn’t work so well with the British English pronunciation of “dew”!

@jamesthomson @cabel I’ve been enjoying the Ringway Manchester channel on YouTube lately. If you’re not already watching it could be a good starting point: https://youtube.com/@RingwayManchester

@intheseheels Bourbon Creams are the nicest biscuit, but they need to be done right. My wife, much as I love her, is blind to the differences and the importance of those differences. And that is why I sleep in the spare room.

@otfrom i get you. The Orange Order did try to rebrand it as Orangefest a few years back to make it a tourist attraction (ie to compete with St Patrick’s Day). They even tried to create a comic book super hero: Diamond Dan the Orangeman. 🙂

@opsGordon what is this? A trackpad for ants?

@otfrom 12th of July says “hold my beer” 😜

I’ve worked in tech for 21 years. I decided today that I was overdue in joining a union. Really grateful for the United Tech and Allied Workers branch of the CWU attending the exhibitors hall at NIDevConf a couple of weekends ago.

@tvaziri isn’t there an another scene where the demonic face appears in the kitchen of the house. Maybe when there’s a power cut, or some quick lighting change. Gives me an excuse to watch it again this weekend!

@chartier it’s 11:59PM for the UK, which is cool as it feels like a Halloween tie-in.

You don’t make a quarterly revenue of almost 20 billion dollars by keeping prices the same instead of gouging your customers when the opportunity arises.

@siracusa @ianRobinson pretty sure it’s not AirPlay, and is Bluetooth only. I have one (and an original Wonderboom) and it’s a PITA if you have multiple potential users. I’ll be in the middle of getting my shampoo-headed groove on when my wife walks in Bluetooth range and her phone connects. Suddenly I’m listening to her Instagram reels until she disconnects and then I’m having to reach out of the shower to fiddle with my phone.

@acf saw this and thought of you! https://www.roughtrade.com/en-gb/product/the-mountain-goats/jenny-from-thebes

@MarkXA better for the environment too.

@acf @spins my CD copy has a standard black tray because I didn’t buy a copy until I moved out of home.
