Thank you.

My fall back on this one is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7mQ26YCsho

(Nobody’s perfect.)

Maybe a CRT monitor and a big magnet?

When I casually said to my dying partner in the nursing home “I look forward to when life is back to normal.”

By that stage I had been ‘living’ with her in the palliative room for about two months I think. (They had no limit on visiting hours so I took a fold up bed and only left twice a week for showers.)

Her reply “are you trying to make me cry” stays with me for ever.

They also changed the tense from past to parent…

Half the cables I have will charge a phone, but will not pass data. There’s no visual clue, so when I want to use a usb mic for example, I have to try cables until I find one that works.

Yes, but if you eat it buttered side down you’ll taste the butter better.

Yeah those are getting annoying. A slideshow of semi-related video bits and a robotic AI reading some document.

Insert column.

And now the dog is probably deaf and has a gun phobia.

“Your floor is now clean.”

Yes, I heard that name for them on QI years ago. “Mein Handy” - though not sure if they spell it handy or handie.

I’m thinking data centres might be like landlines. For a while they were the only option, but then mobiles came along.

In today’s context, the mobile is analogous to a fast home computer that can run AI locally.

We might end up with more telephone exchanges than we need.

(for the international audience, mobile = cell phone / handy; landline = inland phone, PSTN.)

Similar analogy can apply to trains etc.

That’s fair.

I speed read the article but never did it define what PIP was.

I guess it’s similar to the NDIS in Australia - National Disability Insurance Scheme.

Joke was appealing to the nerdy nature of the Fediverse, but since it’s majority down voted, I’ll democratically delete it.

Didn’t catalytic converters fix the carbon monoxide issue?

I want them in my buns.

Love.

… And being ok with a bittersweet life.

I remember making mud pies as a kid. We never ate them though.

Where are the bicycles and fire hydrants?

I guess if there’s more of you, there’s more stuff that can go bad.

Also, that which makes you fat might be bad for you. (Alcohol etc.)
