"In 2014 Microsoft decided it could do a better job if it discarded a lot of software testers. This bright new dawn was lauded at the time by Peter Bright at Ars Technica in a piece titled "How Microsoft dragged its development practices into the 21st century". Testers were soooo 20th century.
The previous month, Microsoft had laid off many of its Windows testers."
Well this explains a few things

@SilviaFox (I'm being facetious)
Professor Fischstörer
@SilviaFox I will not have bad words said about Rage Against The Machine in this house young lady
Professor Fischstörer
@SilviaFox anyway Skindred are Okay at their worst and pretty fuckin good at their best, plus we need more metal bands that aren't entirely made of white men
Professor Fischstörer
@SilviaFox I didnae, bunch of stuff keeping me busy rn ._. I'll make a note though
Professor Fischstörer
@SilviaFox sorry this is the "metal but with groove" thing again, I should establish context before just suddenly yelling at you from across the room
Professor Fischstörer
@SilviaFox OH ALSO
I CAN'T BELIEVE I DIDN'T THINK OF SKINDRED

@bamfic @bob his apology seemed to suggest that he wants to give this a legitimate try at least

@er1n @funkwhale I don't think there's native support for S3 but if you can mount your bucket you can import media without making local copies to the funkwhale server

the smell of leftover teriyaki salmon from @bentosmile sitting next to me is making me regret having seconds last night because it means I have none now

I just learned that when Tarn added gay dwarves to Dwarf Fortress he just added it to all animals.
Some players are using tools to ensure they don't start with a gay rooster (which can lead to food shortages)
Other players are developing breeding plans to make use of lesbian chickens for eggs, non-lesbian chickens for breeding, and gay chickens for meat.
That is...very dwarf fortress.

@karyl I found out just today that not just us but one of our neighbours has had the exact same thing done to her with the exact same "complex" diagnosis
Professor Fischstörer
@pixelguff she's not wrong
Professor Fischstörer
@karyl yeah that's the case here more or less except the local service has a tendency to park people on "complex" diagnoses and then just use those to deflect any cries for help
Professor Fischstörer
@karyl round here, for anything but the simplest of the simple cases, they're functionally useless and in our case have sometimes done more harm than good

ah yes, love to have to rely on NHS mental health services
