Replacing physical buttons and switches in cars with touchscreens, for “clean” design and lower manufacturing cost, is a safety hazard.

Y'all, 2023 getting started in some weird fashion.

I STILL have a spreadsheet full of #Steam #game keys (all legit!) and giving them away isn't just for Christmas any more.

I'm NOT doing this to get new followers. You DON'T need to follow me to get a key. This is about generosity when the world could really use some. The only thing I'd ask you to follow is the Wheaton rule: "Don't be a dick".

To avoid keyfarmers and resellers, I have some guidelines, though.

1. No new accounts. Sorry. You've got to have been here on Mastodon & obviously human; ie. no keyfarmers (If I don't know you, I'm checking profiles).

2. One game per person, but please pick your top three preferred games that you want to play.

3. First in, first served. If your first preference is gone by the time I get to you, that's why there's a 2nd & 3rd preference.

4. *DM* me with the row number, name, and preference order of the three games (my DMs are open)

Green: My keys
Blue: Keys donated by @McCovican.
Orange: Keys donated by @tojosan

Game listed multiple times = multiple keys.

We've given away ~100 games now, and I'll be adding new keys as I get them.

If you don't mind boosting this post; this is my small way of trying to make the world & Mastodon a nice place to be.

I don't often take a bath, but when I do…

Partner is watching “Mama Mia” on the telly. I remain fully convinced that the real Abba move is “Muriel’s Wedding”.

Last night, I had real trouble getting off to sleep because a creative idea smacked me in the face.

I'd been looking for some retro cat eye glasses for ages but most online vendors can't accommodate my great big moon face. And nothing makes great big moon face look worse than glasses that are too small.

So, I decided to extend the ones I have with resin.

Here, for your delectation, my *bat wing* extended glasses.

*takes bow*

Surely I can't be the only person who gets excited when they pull out a Twiglet that looks like a sister chromatid...
