*not really a language model

W Nowym Dworze spłonął dom dziecka. Dzieciaki straciły wszystko - ciuchy, zabawki, podręczniki. Zostało im tylko to, co mieli na sobie podczas ewakuacji. Dzieciaki już wystarczająco w życiu przeszły. Zróbmy fedi efekt!

#UnifiedPush is on everybody's lips when it comes to #decentralization or #deGoogle or wanting to cut off #BigTech from your live.

But did you know how it was started? How many times its destiny intersected with #FDroid ?

if you store palettes for images separate from the images, I don't care how many years it's been, I will track you down and hit you with a miscolored fish

Salim Ali's Swift

A large scimitar-winged swift of valleys, cliffs, and gorges. Nests in buildings and rock crevices; often gives a chattering scream when entering and leaving the nest. Dusky brown with a pale grayish belly, bright white rump, and forked tail. Essentially indistinguishable from the closely related Pacific Swift, but ranges do not overlap; Salim Ali’s Swift is restricted to the highlands of the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau and adjoining foothill regions.

It is absolutely *wild* to me that media organizations still do not put RSS/Atom feed info front-and-center on their websites.

One needs to dive into HTML code or use external tools to discover their feeds.

It is wild because this is one of the easiest, least-effort ways to reach their audience. Encouraging RSS/Atom use is a phenomenal way of becoming less reliant on gatekeepers like huge social media platforms.

Come on!

Playing some relaxing cat music loudly via a bluetooth speaker. It seems to help (again) against those fireworks in the background, both kitties are finally relaxing somewhat on their pillows now. They're still skittish though.

"Gauge was determined from the weight of a solid sphere of lead that will fit the bore of the firearm and is expressed as the multiplicative inverse of the sphere's weight as a fraction of a pound"

I have an idea: americans are never allowed to make units ever again. especially if they call it "gauge"
