Un type se présente au bureau de l'état-civil à Moscou :
— Bonjour, je souhaite changer mon nom.
— Ça c'est une affaire sérieuse, il faut un motif impérieux pour justifier une telle démarche. Ce n'est pas gagné, mais on va tenter. Quel est ton nom actuel ?
— Vladimir Vladimirovitch Suspine. Je voyage souvent en France et mon nom suscite beaucoup de moqueries là-bas.
— Ah oui, je peux comprendre ça. Il y a des noms difficiles à porter. Et quel nouveau nom souhaites-tu ?
— Ivan Ivanovitch Suspine.
@BOOKHOUSE Sorry about that, try doing it on the web, and we are working on a major app update that will fix this and is releasing soon!
@dansup excellent
I’ll check it in a bit. Cheers!!
- Buongiorno, devo recuperare il pacco di mamma
🤔
Ma chi ti conosce, ma chi sei, ma chi cazzo è tua madre, aaaaaahhhhhh!!!!
Oggi uccido qualcuno.
@Yaku
Ma no, dai, guarda bene: sicuramente avete ricevuto un pacco con la scritta «PER LA MAMMA». Sì, quello a forma di cerebro. 😌
"Oh we totally COULD give you the self-improving artificial superintellgence we promised, but we're worried it might wipe out humanity."
Yeah right.
Meanwhile Trump can't even tell the difference between the various critics or the critiques.
My partner and I went up to the Ryanair check-in desk this morning.
The lady asked: "Do you have reservations?"
I said: "Yes, but we're flying with you anyway."
A lot of my colleagues are concerned that #XMPP could kill all of humanity by the end of this decade. This is not a marketing stunt.

@suricrasia Wait what no what wait no I did not know this, CWs being implemented was a before-my-time thing I just have the post-hoc descriptions as context.
Like I knew you were THERE because I knew you were here long before me, but that just meant I posted this assuming "... and you were well-aware of the history and so whatever tone/historical throughline this drew was intentional", bUT---!!
How policy is reshaping open access: everything, everywhere, all at once - Research Consulting https://www.research-consulting.com/how-policy-is-reshaping-open-access-everything-everywhere-all-at-once/
Good suggestions! Today I learned, and followed both #GoodNews and #ShareGoodNewsToo hashtags.
Think I'll keep using the #CounterTheDoomscroll hashtag too, as it communicates more of the intent on why it is important to share good news.
As you say, good news is subjective. The advantage of the hashtag follow is that everyone gets to decide for themself whether they agree, and boost. Whereas acting as "good news provider" might see you at odds with (overly) critical fedizens who blame you for not 100% aligning with their worldviews and ideologies. Progressive circles are quite divisive that way (I sometimes say that posting on fedi can be like "walking on eggshells through a minefield", and when it blows we are all-too-eager to "divide ourselves to be conquered).
Fediverse ideally becomes representative for what it means to live in a "harmonious society" where we have much in common and shared principles and values, but also respect that each person is uniquely different.
@smallcircles @mediafaro Well, that's not my experience. Disagreements are far more civil on the fedi that on big social medias since there's no financial incentive to make people act like jerks. I often post ideologically charged and i never experienced any response that was remotely as violent than in the commercial social medias.
@neil @TimWardCam Exactly, so I'm not sure "companies are already on this" is a particularly good answer if it boils down to "companies are already on making their customer spend huge sums of money replacing otherwise perfectly good kit".
There will, of course, be people who argue that these networks should be maintained forever (but presumably not at their expense), or that someone other than the user should bear the cost of changing the alarm etc.
BREAKING: Citing #AI, Oracle expands layoffs to 21,000 employees
@lauren “Citing broke-ness, Oracle ...”
One of the trees was leaning over under the weight of the apples! It's only a dwarf tree poor thing. I'd even thinned the apples in spring, though maybe that just made bigger apples. #gardening
let this be your only doom-scroll this week

We are 2 weeks into #FinishOrFrogAlong. Hope you are all having fun! Sometimes all we need is to see what others are doing, other times to have some cheer for us, others just to get a little nudge or encouragement. Let us know how you’re doing and feeling! And what do you like best about events like this?

@consumablejoy spilled apple juice on my MKAL shawl last night. Rinsed it immediately, and it's dry by now, but I did get a couple rows done on the wedding sweater in the meantime, and it's nice to be working on ~100-stitch rows instead of ~500-stitch rows.
