Not a Brit. Sorry.

Well, there’s this story:

That was more skin than I ever wanted to see outside a NSFW instance.

I know librarians are still much the same.

She may dress conservatively and act prim and proper, but behind closed doors librarians can get freaky!

I find ebooks from the library to be very useful.

It expires after two weeks. You can extend, just like borrowing a physical copy. Or return early, in which case it expires upon return.

My local library allows borrowing ebooks. It’s incredibly useful. I own two kindles and haven’t spent a dime at Amazon for ebooks. I do buy physical books now and then from there, but only if I really need it and can’t find elsewhere.

Jones approves.

Sure wish we were a province of the United States. Then nobody would be buying pickup trucks as passenger vehicles! I mean, who in America has a pickup truck in their driveway?

I like the Ionic.

I’d buy another one. The Fit is a fantastic economy car. I want an EV, but older cars don’t track. That’s more important to me than the convenience of an EV.

Whereas not using a VPN will subject one to… domestic surveillance.

I own a Honda Fit. It’s small, is reasonably petrol efficient, has actual dials and physical knobs for an interface, and needs just basic maintenance to run reliably.

Of course they’ve been discontinued in Canada.

Elon couldn’t pay me to buy a Tesla. I like EVs. It’s not about the technology. It’s entirely about Elon. I’d rather buy Japanese or South Korean, thank you.

Aaron was instrumental in rewriting Reddit from spez’s half-baked lisp prototype to python. And that was before python hit it big. Kn0thing can’t code and neither could spez. Without Aaron, reddit would never have scaled.

The one I bought was a 2400bps unit in 1985. I hooked it up to a local BBS I ran on a TRS-80 Model 1. Fun times. Lol

I actually owned one of those!

It’s a cable-tv descrambler.

That’s 4Chan.
