@[email protected] Makes sense, I'm from down south with a some years in the Midlands, so I obviously speak proper like and don't know how you northerners would mangle the language :). I think I tend to use post for the postie and as a verb, and mail as the noun ("The postie delivers the mail" "I'm going to post the letter") but I'm pretty sure I'm not consistent in using either.

I mean, I did also set up a new database, fix some backups, add health monitoring to a server, and find a new potential business partner. I just didn't actually mean to do any of that and the washing still isn't hung.

Had a whole chat conversation with someone this morning in which I mentioned I was really struggling to get things done today.

Reader, did I check I had taken my #adhd meditation? No, of course not. I just carried on struggling all morning before seeing the medication after lunch when I took out the next dose.

@[email protected] @[email protected] English English would use mail or post interchangeably for 'is this thing physically being sent to me'. Here in Italy though, 'mail' is often used to refer to email in Italian so if you use mail speaking in English to an Italian they will often assume you mean email (and will often use mail to refer to email even in English)

@[email protected] @[email protected] Now I'm trying to work out if that would be better or worse. Is it more arrogant to claim to be able to heal people in general, or claim responsibility for healing a specific individual?

@[email protected] I recently discovered that here in Italy you can sell nude properties, which amused me no end. Literal translations are such an unending source of fun. (It refers to buying a property but granting the current resident leave to continue living in it, and is used in situations where a pensioner is running out of money but doesn't want to leave their house)

@[email protected] @[email protected] "I spent more money, give me a raise!"

Just a quick test as I've moved Bonfire to a new server. Nothing to see here, move along now.

No - wait - is that a ... nope. Really nothing to see here.

@[email protected] I wonder if you could get a good rendition of Azimov era scifi describing the modern world by deliberately translating back and forth from unrelated languages focussing on literal translations.

@[email protected] @[email protected] What could possibly go wrong?

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] That does sound positive, although I'm a little surprised because every time I've booked accommodation in Italy I've always been met by a real human and had my ID checked. I didn't even realize it was legal to self-checkin now.

@[email protected] I'm impressed at my phone keyboard for having misinterpreted 'some' as 'dinner'. The joys of swiping keyboards. Oh well.

@[email protected] Argh. This is why I hate going into the kitchen at times when I'm not medicated.

"I just asked you for a cup of tea, why are you eating cheese on toast?"

"Because I blinked at dinner point while I was in the kitchen and my brain went 'see kitchen, make food'"

And this is why I sometimes sleep better with my body stuffed full of stimulants... (which help controlling the stray thoughts) #adhd

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] Not to be too dark, but hasn't this been true for a while? I'm sure I could find places on the net to buy (or pay people to find) exploits already, and probably roughly as fast. There are a lot of projects/servers or there with less than stellar security, after all. It almost feels like the bigger change is how much it is now public knowledge you can pay for exploits, rather than whether or not you could already.

@[email protected] see, you posted that tagged as no context but... gestures out the window

Turns out that my Boox Note Air 3C actually does a surprisingly good job of running #krita. Slightly laggy displaying the brush strokes but records them accurately, and the e-ink display and roughly A5 form factor means I can draw outside in bright sunlight and on the go.

The e-ink display does make judging colour saturation a little difficult though!

@[email protected] a shame, but I suspected that would be the case. Supporting that kind of ui slickness across the two different stacks would be a huge pile of work. It looks gorgeous, by the way.
