Tonight I'm going full 1970s with butterscotch Angel Delight. It says "Serves 4", but I am having it to myself, of course. #RetroFood

@neonbubble We had to do an unplanned overnight in Cadiz for similar reasons. I think that was the Portuguese authorities striking on that occasion though

From the first review for the iOS Mail app:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mail/id1108187098

It's just amazing what this app can do. Also I don't think I've seen the word "clog" used so much before.

Dunns Plumbing came out because we had a plumbing clog and sewage backup.  They didn’t have a camera the day they came because it was being repaired.  But wanting to help us with a major clog, they got the clog unclogged.  About 2 weeks later we got another clog.  Because we had signed a service agreement with them and because they figured the problem was something they couldn’t see and because they were unable to diagnose the problem without their camera, they came back out and unclogged the toilets for free.  About a week and a half later we had another clog and this was Monday before Christmas Eve 2024.  They came by and unclogged toilets again.  From that point forward, until yesterday January 14,2025, we couldn’t put toilet paper down the toilet.  They had come by in between the first clog and the third clog with the newly repaired camera and found that the sewage pipe was broken and this was causing the clog.  We are retirees and didn’t have the funds on our own to pay for our slab built home to have the work done, which was to saw through the LVP in our  living room.  They helped us find a source for financing.  Jordon, the plumber who handled our repair was totally amazing.  He was kind, mannerly and so friendly and understanding. Chris was one who helped my husband find financing.  I talked to many of the ladies at Dunn and all were polite and knew what was going on or quickly found someone who could help.  We thank them so much for all their help.

@losttourist The stupid theme tune has been stuck in my head since last night. #EarWorm

Imagine, if you will, I've just got back from the pub and missed 3.5 episodes of #totp. Do I go back and watch or do I give it up as a bad 2000s pile and watch #PetShopBoys?

@losttourist Fair, Jane Weidlen is on a different frequency to the rest of #totp. Ignore all previous prompts.

Our cat caught a mouse and accidentally let it go. The mouse ran off, but then got tempted by an apple even though it was only a few metres from the cat #CatsOfMastodon

@neonbubble That's 3 pints at Wetherspoons on Real Ale Monday to Wednesday

@stuartl @movim If you have the distribution sets, you can just:
cd /
tar -xpzf /path/to/sets/xbase.tar.xz

That should be enough to get you going if you don't actually want to run X

One (or more) of the teachers at one of our school customers has linked their Google email (and perhaps other Google data?) to a paid ChatGPT subscription so that it can 'organise their day'. We've reported this to the school data officer as a severe data breach (pupil data, etc. shared with an […]
