Rare sighting of Gimli’s song of Moria. Doesn’t get enough light, that one.

So succinct, so poetic.

Neither, it’s literally Brazilian beef that’s affected (though the import ban is by the EU, so both ends of the comment were somewhat incorrect).

Mm, I expect there are still some old rows from the previous database before the Upgrade-Gone-Wrong. Will take a look when I get a spare moment Sunday.

Ecosia seems to have done better: this appears to be a bit from “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt”, a Netflix show.

It is suspicious that the bot “found” cloudflare without it being mentioned…

Remind me in the morning, I’ll take it down for investigation.

Many thanks, added to the database.

Happy to take definitions and plug them into the database, if you have them to hand. If not, I’ll put aside a few minutes this weekend to look them up.

I had this problem on Graphene, but (in the UK at least) there are alternative wallet apps. I’m on Curve myself.

Mm, English calls them loanwords. Like we’re going to give them back at some point.

But English itself is an unholy marriage of Dutch and French, each half taking the other half as loanwords. It’s a miracle we get anything communicated.

Right; the difference was studio pressure and timelines. Boyens and Jackson could take their time with LotR (pre-production was what, seven years?), while they were piled on to turn two films into three for the Hobbit, and to turn them around in no time at all comparatively.

I believe the boxing shrimp is also a Centurii-chan piece, so that lines up.

Huh, so it’s doing this on every thread… Let me investigate.

What is gun snow, and where would I find it?

This sounds like passive suicidal ideation: something that’s always there in the back of the mind, but not about to be actively acted on. To quote Anna Borges:

I don’t always want to be alive. Yes, I mean it. No, you shouldn’t be afraid for me. No, I’m not in danger of killing myself right now. Yes, I really mean it. How do you explain that?

I keep her article in my bookmarks, and re-read now and then: https://theoutline.com/post/7267/living-with-passive-suicidal-ideation

There was an idea mooted over on Mastodon, that Flight Sim will be renamed Copilot Copilot. Rolls off the tongue.

I’m hosting the Decronym bot on a single-user instance, and it’s a real pain. The bot’s been down for weeks, actually, because an upgrade failed with some obscure error around the database schema…

I’ve ended up just today, wiping the whole thing and starting over, losing all data and having to refederate the bot. So yeah, I wouldn’t recommend.

[Acronyms to help the bot re-establish: LVM, HASS, k8s]

Wow, this takes me back… OP mentions that Nemi ran in the UK for a while, and I can corroborate. It was printed in the free Metro paper distributed at train stations, which I read daily on the way to university.

(I later learned the Metro was a sub-print of the Daily Mail, which is when I stopped picking it up from the stands.)

That was gosh, twenty years ago. Great to see Nemi is still a thing.

A recent episode of Colbert’s Late Show; I remember seeing this segment, should be on the YouTube page.

If I recall, two thirds of the people registered as having entered couldn’t be found when the place was shut down.
