I sometimes think I am a cool young punk rebel rockstar, not realising I look like a 50 year old in business attire and shiny shoes. I assume my people will sense me, but instead a younger cooler person just offered me their seat on the bus. I AM NOT IN DANGER OF A FALL. Bloody whippersnappers and rapscallions. Why don't they get a job and stop hanging around on the streets.
@TheBreadmonkey
That 'younger cooler person' had great parents to teach them that!
Nature is crazy.
@lowqualityfacts What language does the sign language cover?
Comfort Zone is going indie!
We want to sincerely thank the folks at MacStories who believed in us two years ago and massively helped in launching this podcast. But after 113 episodes of beautifully executed challenges (right?), Comfort Zone will be moving to its own home soon.
This means we are going to be on a hiatus while we work things out, and migrate between hosting services. We will keep you updated when we are ready to resume the show! 💛

"Researchers found code on the site's homepage that ran silent #audio processes in the browser. Tied to #Alibaba's security systems, the scripts tap a device's own audio hardware to generate a signal and measure the tiny, device-specific ways it comes back – producing something close to a fingerprint that doesn't need a single cookie to work. It's the kind of #tracking a user would likely never notice."
@gkrnours @aeva since cent isn't here to drop the standard copypasta, just in case, https://3ds.hacks.guide/ reminder to simply follow this guide, which is pretty detailed and should cover basically anything you might want to do, and to Not Follow Random Youtube Videos
@halcy @aeva by the way, everyone say easy but it's for very narrow definition of easy. Hacking a 3DS was the closest I ever felt from trying to glitch real life. It's all easy step like "copy this url", "paste that url", "open this menu", "remove the sd card", "insert the SD card" (it might require a way to copy file to a SD card).
So not as easy as plugging an R4 in a DS but guide is clear, each basic step is something you have done, it's fun and rewarding.
My family are all going away for a few days. To thrilling places. Some are going to Valencia for a city break. Others to a rave festival. I shall be at home. Working and whatnot. I've just bought my supplies for when they're away. What's that, I hear you all cry expectantly?! Cheeseburgers and crisps and vodka and viagra and cocaine? No. I appear to have got a bunch of salad ingredients and some alcohol-free beers. Move over, Jim Morrison, there's a new guy in town. 😎
@TheBreadmonkey
I’ve known salads and nonalcoholic beer so good they were borderline trippy.
@vonpearly oh wow, that's incredible!
And you need something like this (Panniers)

@fuzzyleapfrog hahaha, definitiv! Mein erster Gedanke beim Wort Wurst ist allerdings immer Söder. Selbiges gilt auch für das Wort Würstchen, allerdings aus anderen Gründen 😌
