transfems seem to universally have the magical attribute of getting hotter as time goes on

Alcohol talk
apparently there is a microbrewery nearby my home city, HUH, would be really fucking ironic if I couldn't find their beer anywhere in my city since they seem to do their business from the capital, which tickles my funny bone somehow

Bring back actual personal blogs where people write about what they did at the weekend for an audience of three people

@ohnoitsnoah fuck yeah! the experience all thinkpads deserve!

Can beings stop it with the trans rights are human rights in this realm

Its too anthropocentric

Trans rights are universal rights

They should simply make a country where it is safe and affordable to live

A friend stated that most people on the #Fediverse disable boosts, and I was rather astonished to hear that.

Ah yes, I love when "hey this isn't a profitable enterprise" is only included at the *end* of an article, but somehow this ends up being a better article covering what was already known!

The DTC has been pushed to figure out how to share the road with private buses,<https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0019556120010204> is a great read **FROM 2001** Covering how more buses good, but private operators really ruin the experience of the entire system.

Apparently the DTC has stopped serving a small but significant part of the city, with buses now rerouted through tighter turns ... AND NO DAMN INFORMATION ABOUT THIS ANYWHERE? If only they had GTFS RT to convey this, if only they had a GTFS feed they kept updated, if only they had social media, if only they had a website, if only they were able to publicise it on bus stops they owned, huh, they could have and didnt? Woah! They dont give a shit? Surprising.

SCAM ALERT

An elderly adult may go up to you and pinch your nose without your consent then claim to have stolen your nose

Do not attempt to pay them to reacquire your nose

They do not have your nose

Their supposed proof is just their thumb in between two of their fingers

Do not engage them
You still have possession of your nose

Huge congratulations to @alice! She has been formally recognized as an outstanding @gnome contributor by being awarded this year’s β€œPants of Thanks,” a long-standing GUADEC tradition.

Thank you to everyone who sent in nominations; there were so many great people it was hard to choose just one, but Alice definitely deserves recognition for her tireless work on libadwaita and the GNOME platform.

Congratulations! πŸ‘

While the short allotted time of 30 minutes did not allow the participants to make too many edits, we would like to showcase the enthusiastic contributions of @niyabits - keep up the good work!

Multiple green lines extending from it show the roads connected to it, and 2 green circles show the roundabouts connected to it. A screenshot of Achavi, showing changes made by niyabits. Multiple yellow polygons in the Montfort College area show the buildings and ground that have been added. A yellow window-like shape shows the walking paths that have been added to a park. A little yellow line shows a pedestrian crossing added to a road, and the road itself is highlighted in green, showing that it has been moved slightly from its previous position in red.
