«"Basically," observed Droogie, "this is bullshit”
After contacting the DMV and the LAPD, and painstakingly explaining his situation, they both told him the same thing: change your plates.

I think I learned something about #Facebook today: people use it because it has #groups like !GNUsocial! Well, sort-of? @palmella tells me that, *unlike* GNU social groups, Facebook heavily moderates (modulates?) the delivery of group-posts to users' home streams in ways that don't necessarily have obvious explanations.... -

Someone just asked me to recommend a good #git #book; I finally conceded that `do a #websearch for "git config.ff only"' is probably best—because any teacher who doesn't tell you to do that as part of your most basic git setup is probably someone you shouldn't listen to. -

@rozzin Indeed. I collect them, clean them up, bring them back to life, pass them on. So a number of family members and my neighbor also have one. You can get them for $20 to $200 on eBay. Why not? They are the best toasters ever made. Sunbeam appears to have made a lot of them. And they last. -

@jd aaah—I was thinking you just *really* liked #toast, if you had a toaster for every room ☺ -

Indeed, I have several of those exact Sunbeam Automatic Toasters. I prefer the oldest T-20 models before they started engineering cost out. They are wonderful. -

A new way (or a #GNU way...) to feel #olde: "why, I remember when all these #POSIX standard features were still GNU-specific!" -

I do love the origin story for the #POSIX #name, from #rms:
«The committee put on "IEEEIX" as the concise name. I did not think that was a good choice. It is ugly to pronounce—it would sound like a scream of terror, "Ayeee!" …» -

Oh, hey—I was recently quoted in this article on opensource.com: "What is POSIX? Richard Stallman explains—Discover what's behind the standards for operating system compatibility from a pioneer of computer freedom" https://opensource.com/article/19/7/what-posix-richard-stallman-explains -

Hah--to be fair, #NH #1 cause of power-outages is probably #MA drivers coming up to gawk at fall foliage, and running into utility-polls while gawking.... That's just my guess, tho' ;p #fallpreytofoliage -

Didn't Slack say something like "we want to be a utility company—like the power company!" recently? -
