One of my tiniest personal satisfactions is to have learned how to pronounce Eyjafjallajökull in Icelandic. -

Indeed, but all the depicted villains have massive criminal empires with likely ties to intelligence agencies so it doesn't really surprise me. -

This is a little unfair, James Bond himself is famous, but few people (mostly mistresses) know he's a British spy. However he keeps facing entities with the resources to know his true identity and that's why it's pretty much transparent in all his narrated adventures. -

“James Bond movies would be more realistic if 007 was a woman; it would explain why villains can’t help explaining their plan to her.” ♲ @GoldfishFight@twitter.com: Les films James Bond seraient beaucoup plus réalistes si 007 était une femme parceque ça expliquerait pourquoi les méchants ne peuvent s'empêcher de lui expliquer leur plan.

Not only this official Ontario, Canada court decision is a satisfying defeat for overzealous police forces that public defenders from all over the world would envy, it also is written in an equally satisfying personal blog post tone.

Milestone: I just passed $1,000 earned in #LEGO sets and parts since I started selling them on Christmas 2020. It should give me some sort of assurance but I keep being absolutely befuddled when I'm getting an order. People will apparently buy anything. -

This series of late 1980's videos by Tim Hunkin about the origin and the inner workings of common pieces of day-to-day technology is extremely good.
Hat tip to @martin ⁂ for the discovery

Friendica PHP requirement bumped to version 7.2+
Hi !Friendica Admins,
The upcoming version 2021.09 of Friendica won't entirely work on systems with a PHP version under 7.2. The specific feature are the push notifications as part of the Mastodon API, but it is highly recommended to upgrade your PHP installation if it wasn't already.
For administrators running thedevelopbranch, the version bump is effective immediately. -

How would you parlay time for money? How would you find housing with the little money you would make? -

Forget about surviving in the wild, what gear would you take to survive in a city, you just can't have cash, credit cards or checks? -

Of course since you didn't fill them yourself. If you had said how it made you feel I wouldn't have had to guess from the general tone of your message which was far from neutral. -

It's the same story with people buying houses until the 2008 stock market crisis, how were they supposed to know when the market would crash? How were taxi drivers supposed to know if and when a global pandemic would happen to stop them from taking a loan 5, 10, 15 years ago?
Unlike cryptocurrency speculators, these people don't need your contempt, they have nothing to fall back on for their livelihood and worse, they still are on the hook for a massive debt they can't repay themselves without the activity it was tied to before the foreclosures.
