@iamkonstantin same. I’ve been enjoying this view in Things for the past few hours.

@iamkonstantin I guess if it has very strict guard rails it won’t make up false information but that’s no surprise. It’s not going to be very useful outside the US
@fds I mean they released Siri summarising messages and what not, there are no guardrails for false information :D
@david_chisnall I've used vim since 1992. You lost me at looking for something new.
@flyingpenguin In 1992, Vim was something new!

"Once the car became the American way of life, we essentially morphed into a series of car companies with a minor country problem."
A fantastic video on how cars took over and what we can do to get American biking again.

Smoothies, chia puddings, overnights oats
A couple folks have asked about these kinds of recipes of late. Have at it!
@GramrgednAngel similarly to the overnight oats - but less vegan - I'm doing an overnight greek yogurt with chia seeds, sultanas, almonds and walnuts. Very tasty.

Tim Curry is forever in my heart as the voice of Nigel, the patriarch of The Wild Thornberries:

but we owe him a debt of gratitude for developing Dr. Frank-n-furter during filming of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. that movie became my generation's salve from the #GOP’s genocidal neglect during the #AIDS pandemic.
he’s one of the ancestors now.
godspeed, Tim.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show at Film Forum will forever be in my heart as the place of resistance for all us #GenX queers and misfits during the genocidal Reagan-Bush years.
when they thought Black & Latine trans women & gay men were the only victims, Bush and Reagan said #AIDS victims deserved to die for being sins.
that’s why TRHPS was so important during that era. Tim rewrote that movie with his defiantly ambisexual performance. TRHPS taught us how to carve spaces of #LGBTQI resistance.

Fare enforcement is evil, IMHO, and has a climate impact by discouraging public transit use.
@neil "Condos" (condominiums) are creatures of law just as much as corporations and Home Owners Associations.
I don't know if the UK has such things?
Therefore they are afflicted with laws.
Private homes may also be afflicted with laws, but a LOT FEWER OF THEM!
I don't think that we have condos (at least, I have not heard of them here).
And I have never heard of a home owners' association here. The first I heard of it as a thing at all was in the fediverse, and it sounds very weird to me.
We have "corporations", but whether they are quite the same thing, I have no idea!
