@revk I recently tried to upload a GIF I made to Twitter and it didn't work. Turns out it won't accept plain old GIFs with just a single image. Guess I'll have to rewrite my old program to generate PNGs instead.

@GreenSky Unfortunately the local power utility in Wrocław removed the plants recently and now it's just an ordinary lamppost.

@natureworks Hi, Ronnie Barker. Meet our dogs:

@natureworks BTW – it's a very nice dog.

@natureworks The nice thing about this place, compared to Twitter, is that people are being nice, and trying to be nicer. That was one biggest problems for me here initially – I sometimes love being not nice :)

@rmattila74@mastodo.fi So you start with a giant nuclear reactor in space, then use discarded parts of that reactor to convert the reactor's radiation to kinetic energy, then convert this kinetic energy to back to electromagnetic radiation. All used to be so simple in the old days, and now this...

@natureworks You never know. We still don't know that much about their cognitive capabilities :)

@at@sigmoid.social I've been following this subject for years, many of my rural internet customers are farmers and have their harvest servicing horror stories. In a poor part of a not very rich country this is a real problem. The farms here are small, so farmers have little leverage. Generally, old things work better here. My youngest car is 18 years old, but if something fails it's usually easy to repair locally.

@natureworks Maybe he's not that dumb. Anyway, this a nice example of #DogsOfMosstodon

@at@sigmoid.social That's what I fear too. That means people from my area (Eastern Poland close to the border with Ukraine) won't lose their jobs hacking those tractors :) BTW, I still wonder about the origins of that "Ukrainian hackers help farmers repair their Deeres" story from years ago.
