Certainly substantial, with little evidence that an overrun is possible. ★★★☆☆ #RateMyBuffers

Congrats to #Apple for inventing USB-C and sustainability 😉... In all seriousness, we appreciate the spotlight on "Mother Nature" in your latest ad. Though, this didn't have to be a 5+ minute video. Here, we fixed the script for you. 👇🪛📱

Google released the .ZIP tld on the world then just fucking left the entire domain business a month later. Not a serious company.

idk how anything Google launches can be taken seriously by anyone at this point 😡🤪 9to5google.com/2023/06/15/go…

Google Domains shutting down, assets sold and being migrated to Squarespace

Google Domains is "winding down following a transition period," with Squarespace taking over the business and assets...

A man walks onstage. The lights dim. The audience falls into excited hushes. A spotlight hits the man. He speaks. "Imagine, if you will, a future..." "A future where you can send emails..." "while wearing ski goggles with a cord running into your pants." The crowd roars.

And fixing wheels...
A picture of the top part of a wheel for a bell hung for the English style of change ringing. The wheel is a u-shape and is where the rope runs. One part of the side of the wheel has come away at one end and is above where it should be.

I was planning a bit of a knees-up, until it dawned on me that I don't have knees. Therefore, I will host a swinging party instead.

OFFICIAL RINGING ANNOUNCEMENT: I will ring out in full voice on Saturday 6th May 2023, from 10:45 until 11:00, ahead of the coronation of King Charles III. I will be swung by my human ringers. This is very exciting for a bell. #bellringing

Apparently this is up for debate, so let’s settle it…
A picture of the speed camera sign. But is it a modern camera pointing at the driver, or is it a Victorian bellows style camera?

Just seen a video of yesterday’s emergency alarm going off at the London marathon, followed by everyone shouting “WHEEEY!!!” So at least we now know how Britain will respond to news of the apocalypse.
