Exactly 😂
@rugk @FalconMarkSix
But it was just a pun anyway — definitely not the right thread to tell people about that too, original post already puts Google in an unfavourable light. Enough of them for today 😅
@rugk @FalconMarkSix
It is, but as much as Chrome is — you can have your own implementation, but if it does something differently, no one will use it as it won't be backed by company like Google. So you are free to reimplement it, but do things exactly how G does them.
It also offers only marginal advantages, while making implementing new browsers harder — if you want to support WebP. Of course you can rely on Google's implementation — but that gives you extra attack surface as we now know.
I took a nice hip-hop CD I often listen to out of its box, put it into the CD player, pressed "play"…
Then, after a while I notice that it's not hip-hop music, but stoner rock music… "Maybe I have just switched to a different input and that is why something different is playing?" But no, it's playing exactly from that CD player…
It's mid track 4 and being stoner, those aren't exactly short.
Damn, I sure am scatterbrained today 🤪

Hey, you have a cat nest on your head! 😹

I've seen wall switches with such a mode decades ago: it just turned the lights on once in a few hours for random period of time. Neat trick, but I think they are aware of this already and if they have spotters, those probably pay more attention to actual people coming and going than lights, and if they are amateurs — it probably won't stop them anyway 😄
@millihertz
Thank you! Wasn't familiar with the term 😅
@millihertz
What's LB in this context? Lithium batteries? 🤔

OMG, such a beauty! 😻
@galaxydinodragon All of them on different computers for different purposes, but most of my computers run Void Linux these days.

TBH I don't think my parents did me good when they taught me that skill, I wish I could worry less about insignificant things like that. But of course it has good sides too 😁
@Baggypants @fribbledom
Yep, probably I'm just a boring person. Who can even shut power completely off when leaving for extended periods 😅
@Tony I hope they aren't! It would be horrible for birbs to be real 🙀
@ThatCrazyDude Typical for countries where people live in extreme poverty I think. I wonder what it would be for Russia, but probably something similar. Utilities being more expensive because of climate might make a difference, but otherwise should be pretty close to that.
@aral
Maybe there is a new Biden in town — we just don't know that yet 😂
@creamqueen
But you're already a ghost… of Fedi — I mean if you can't interact with anyone 😀
@JakeeMan
What language was this originally in? That "6" looks like a pun on popular Russian supermarket chain 😹
@fribbledom
> you get the ability to control your lights while away from home using their mobile app
Is it only me who finds this funny? Why would I want to control lights away from home, to give my cats a scare? 🤪
I mean, you might have cameras installed which might be not infrared and in this case you might want to control lights too, but it seems to me to be a very narrow corner case.
@biarine
Cats can sit on anything. One of the cats I've had could sit on top of an open book while I've been holding it and reading. And it wasn't a particularly thick book. Why? Who knows — cats 😹
None
Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
