I’m so, so sad to hear about Molly Holzschlag’s death this morning (tucsonsentinel.com/local/rep…, via @cackhanded).

I first met Molly in 2005 when she was head of the Web Standards Project, at a dinner in her honour that I ended up at with no idea who she was. We spent the whole evening laughing, debating, and joking

@CommunityFibre Hi! My Community Fibre connection’s upload speed is gradually degrading over the last 24 hours (see attached). Any suggestions of what to check?

@McKelvie OK. Important end-of-Twitter question: where do we go for your Christmas joke this year? Here? Mastodon? Instagram? Inquiring minds must know!

To be fair to Elon Musk, if my primary business skill was “inherited an emerald mining fortune”, I’d probably also see the normal operation of a company and think it was a sensational example of corruption.

@AppleSupport I got an email last night welcoming me to my Apple Music Voice Plan preview… but I never signed up for that. Checking my subscriptions shows that it’s been added to my account. How did this happen, and can it be undone?

@grumpygamer @phrenopolis Just finished my first play-thru of RtMI. Thanks to you both for this wonderful… return… to Monkey Island from this wannabe-mighty-pirate who played Secret as a kid when it first came out. Any chance the soundtrack will be available to buy?
It is 2022, and my beloved* GNU Make still has no idea how to handle spaces in file names. brb:renaming-all-my-files * Yes, really. Don’t @ me.

Love the way people misgender my baby and then get angry at me for their mistake because I don’t put her in pink dresses or put bows in her (almost nonexistent) hair 🙄

@_connectedfm Another entry for your “what is Jony Ive doing with his time?” follow-up: he guest-edited this weekend’s @htsi in the @FT Weekend (also online here: ft.com/content/01ce4d84-d7bd…). Maybe @imyke should pick up a copy? (Or let me know if you want scans…)
This might be one of the things I’m most proud of achieving at @Justice_Digital: all of my hosting teams default to open, for all their work. We all kind of take it for granted now, but it’s actually pretty unique.
Whoa. TIL that the UK's Ministry of Justice keeps their Kubernetes configuration in a public repo with >15,000 commits and more than 7,500 closed pull requests! github.com/ministryofjustice…

Recreate the Protestant Reformation with your very own Martin Luther action figure with theses-nailing action! . . (I know it’s actually @playmobil… but it’s a Playmobil Martin Luther!) #playmobil instagram.com/p/CaKrt5wKC2t/…
You know it’s love when your partner still completes the full 3-step TCP handshake with you for texts that require confirmation of receipt 😍

The Marleys were dead, to begin with.

@_connectedfm Following your Jony Ive update in 365, I figured you all might be interested (but especially @imyke, as a fellow Londoner) that Jony and Marc Newson were involved in redesigning the bar in @ClaridgesHotel: ft.com/content/0b6d50b6-6f2e…

Does anyone know how to make zsh offer the contents of ./bin when autocompleting commands? It’s in $PATH (and executable without prefixing ./bin/), but never seems to be offered for completion… 🤔

@choosyosx Hi @georgebrock! Choosy 2.2.1 seems to open the preferences window at login when “Start Choosy at login” is selected (but no icon in menu bar)… Is that intentional?
I’ve been working at @Justice_Digital for 7 years today! Where has all that time gone?
