One of the smartest people to ever come out of Alabama. Is this a joke or a fact? Yes.

I was just reminded of @leo building a dual Celeron 333MHz PC overclocked to 500MHz for the world's first 1GHz PC on Screensavers. Ahh good memories.

Another great example of feeling a way, trying to express that feeling and being limited by style and technique. Oh well here's a quasi-creepy skull guy!

Been feeling like this a lot lately. If only my artistic skills could actually convey how I feel. It's like trying to scream with no mouth.

what's wrong babe you've barely touched your potential even though all those grade school teachers liked you and said you were gifted and that you were going to do great things in life

@catsalad Ahh the weight of "potential"... Such a sinister word used in preparation for capital gain. Thanks, Mrs. Copeland!

It's storming here in Indiana. I lost power for a blip so I'm here to remind you to run any and all sensitive electronics like your NAS/server or desktop on a battery backup.

How far can a toot travel in the fediverse?

I chatted recently with someone who complained that the fediverse lacked "reach".

So I'm curious: if you are up for it, could you please reply to this toot (which started life on single user instance on a tiny computer in a garage in the United Kingdom) saying which country you are in?

An autism registry will appear to make autism cases decline due to people being afraid to get diagnosed which in turn will make RFK appear to be succeeding. I genuinely hate where we are and where we're going.

I'm working on a friend's older Dell AIO. It's running Win10 and can't upgrade to 11. So I'm backing up her stuff and the number of pop ups about Microsoft services and recycling the PC and OneDrive and and ... How do you folks still on Windows do it?

She's getting Mint by the way because I'm not sending this thing back in this condition.

Scientists think that a meteor slammed into the Earth causing an ice age that ultimately killed all the dinosaurs, but the truth is this guy took the stage.

Today, we have fined Apple and Meta for breaching the Digital Markets Act.

Apple restricts developers from informing customers about offers outside the App Store, while Meta doesn’t give consumers the choice of a service that uses less of their personal data.

A year ago, I saw someone open a book lamp in a bar. It was a pretty expensive product. Since I combine electronics and paper crafting, I had to DIY it and develop an easy-to-use circuit template and instructions for it. This educational project is perfect for libraries. Please #retoot :-)
Template and instructions are available on my website: voltpaperscissors.com/diybookl.
Feel free to ask any questions.

Puffin's Bluff

A puffin stands on the edge of a cliff overlooking the ocean. "I always thought I'd get wiser and braver with time... but I'm only becoming more neurotic". We see its perspective, looking down at the rough water below. "Why am I like this? Does it help me?" A close up of the puffin's face, looking momentarily cheerful. "Maybe overthinking IS wisdom! I AM the contemplative figure, gifted with great insight". They look down again "...and nervous bowels".
