@libreoffice you should get an updated calendar, April Fool's is months away.
Trump has now spent 340 days ending the Ukraine war in 1 day.
@randahl so in the future 1 day is more than 8 160 hours?
Has any TV cast had as successful a post-series career as Taxi's?
@jsit Saturday Night Live?
@ludicity @GentlemanTech I finally found a good answer for "how do I change things at this institution" and it is being published in a few months:

Back in the day when one built things with PDP-11s as one tended to do, there was very little memory and no virtual memory.
One had to organize one's code into "overlays" - regions of code that could replace each other in RAM.
If you neglected to swap in an overlay before calling a routine in it? Guess what happend.
In production projects managing memory was half the challenge in writing code.
No one has been doing any real coding for years.
When the VAX shipped I moved to Massachusetts to work at Digital Equipment Corporation because virtual memory was so cool.
We need a word for the opposite of surprise that also conveys the feeling of being laden with weariness

@urlyman Ohgodnotagain.
Trump: We cannot afford affordable healthcare.
Also Trump: Look at my new marble arm rests for The Trump Kennedy Center!
@randahl "unlike anything done before"... Because marble is a HORRIBLE material to make arm rests out if.

@tinker Beautiful movie.
"People are leaving Spotify, and those who aren’t seem embarrassed about using it. Major artists pulled their music off the platform this year in protest of the company’s ICE recruitment ads and connections to military drones, and posting your Wrapped stats has gone from a ubiquitous year-end pastime to a cultural faux pas."

Just a sliding-into-has-been joining the dots here. I’ve been wondering why tf Mastodon has been offering me a ‘Wrapstodon’ and now I infer the etymology from this
