Good to know! I shut it down just in case and wait for more info, but no one seems to know anything 😂

When your cat is not in use, don't forget to put it back into its protective sheath 😸

@kirby
I know you don't 😂
Sorry, I could've worded it better, I just thought you might know something about it.

Why is Annihilation Social down? Status page mentions vulnerability in Bloat, is this the same thing?

@sysrq @kirby
Is there some description of Bloat vuln anywhere though?

@Mrw@hachyderm.io
Oh, looks interesting! Not sure I'll be able to get my hands on it anytime soon, but I'm bookmarking it just in case 👍

@Mrw@hachyderm.io
Sweet names! I assume, they are named after Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace 😹

@dale_hennessey One of my cats is sometimes keen on insisting to sit like that — other lying poses just won't do 😹

@thatguyoverthere Heh, you sure aren't. I'm not particularly superstitious, but I probably wouldn't try engaging in something important today if I were you — just not to feel further frustrated in case something goes wrong.
I hope it's nothing serious and your finger heals quickly.

@thor
I usually get such a relief when an appointment I'm not really up to gets cancelled. Especially when hung over.
Like for real, I get this "life is good" feeling when this happens — joy hard to compare to anything else 🤣

@82mhz With software I use any modern laptop would probably last forever on single battery charge. But that alone isn't enough to justify their replacement.
And I don't think I'd go with Apple hardware today, I don't even use my Apple hardware with Apple software anymore as I don't like it. If I hit the market today, I'll pick something by Purism, System'76, Framework, Tuxedo… There are a lot of companies that make computers with Linux in mind.

@82mhz Funny thing is, there are a MacBook Pro and a Mac Pro among these computers 😆
They were top of the line models in their time and still aren't bad in terms of performance, I don't do "AI" thingies or 4k video editing — other than that, I can't think of anything I can't do with my computers. I mean, I wouldn't mind if they had hardware h265 decoding and I could really benefit from more power-efficient CPUs…

What are you, crazy? Go out right now and buy a new Macbook Pro! And a Mac Pro to use at home! And since you're at the Apple store anyway, why don't you pick up an iPhone 15 Pro Super Mega Max as well, and of course an iPad and an Apple Watch to complete the ecosystem. Airpods are optional for now, but I'd highly appreciate it if you got a pair too. Or two, one for home and one for on the go.

You can't just keep using your old hardware. Think about the economy! Hardware manufacturers are struggling because of people like you!

You throw away that old crap right now, I don't care if it still works and fits your needs, and you buy everything new. And from now on, you do that *every single year*!

Understood? ;)

What?! System has been using Wayland for ages, but Firefox wasn't, what is even the point? It was Firefox in particular that encouraged me to try Wayland in the first place, I've been fed up seeing very noticeable visual tearing. I hope the screenshots of Firefox's window have been working. Can't believe how bad Ubuntu is these days 😩

If you happen to get your hands on an older computer, say between 10 and 20 years old, do you

@82mhz
> between 10 and 20 years old
> older computer
Hey, all of my computers are of that age. Every single one of them. And I don't even consider them old 😂

TIL about the doorway effect a known psychological event where a person's short-term memory declines when passing through a doorway moving from one location to another when it would not if they had remained in the same place.
