I washed my bedding this morning but every time I tried to put the sheets back on there were cats occupying my bed. I eventually just had to pile up the sheets, which these three appreciated.

Loki: meow?
Me: Indoor rowing workout.
(whoosh)
Loki: meow
Me: No, I can’t pet you right now.
(whoosh)
Loki: meow?
Me: The handle only balances if I put two hands on it. That leaves zero hands for pets.
(whoosh)
Loki: meow
Me: Sorry, I can’t change anatomy on demand.

Loki: meow
Me: Of course. Now I can do this properly.
[a few dozen skritches later]
Loki: meow
Me: Love you too.

Went to take out the dog, opened the front door, greeted by a big fat skunk right at the bottom of the front step. Thankfully it hustled off pretty quick before the dog figured out what was going on and he didn't get close enough to trigger a blast.

Roughly $400,000 in the $1m budget was for public awareness – but those funds were recently ‘zeroed out’
Давайте просто отдыхать
И в солнце ласковом купаться!
Давайте просто будем жить,
Ведь жизнь проходит незаметно,
Ничем потом не заменить
Ни этот миг, ни это лето!
Оно проходит навсегда,
Потом уже не повторится,
И не вернётся никогда,
Как жизни прожитой страница.
Перевернул, и всё прошло,
Закаты эти и рассветы,
И это дивное тепло,
И это сказочное лето...

The #Conversations_im update that requires TLS 1.3 is currently rolling out.
Apparently, judging by the bug reports coming in, a good number of servers do not support TLS 1.3 yet.
Please upgrade your servers and/or check their configurations. 🙏
Users can opt out via a setting in the Security section of the app, but this setting will likely go away in 1-2 years. The only correct move here is to fix your servers. Also, check the HTTP servers used by HTTP Upload.

Support-Ende für Windows 10: Millionen PCs betroffen
Mitte Oktober stellt Microsoft die regulären Sicherheits-Updates für Windows 10 ein. Erstmals können auch Privatnutzer an einem offiziellen Verlängerungsprogramm teilnehmen. Experten empfehlen dennoch ein Update. Von Jens Eberl.
Wer braucht schon Windows.
Ich hoffe doch im bezahlten Rundfunk von ARD und ZDF weiss man diese Nachrichten zu deuten und hat fleißig alle Windowsgeräte auf Linux umgestellt, um die unnötige Neuanschaffung noch einsstzfähiger Geräte aus den Rundfunkgebühren zu vermeiden.
Linux, Libreoffice, Thunderbird, Matrix sind DAS Handwerkzeug für Journalisten.
"The classical end of all pure democracy is the popular tyrant. And incidentally all successful tyrants throughout history have been popular idols."
- Dorothy Thompson, 1938.
Miss Thompson (a.k.a. Mrs. Sinclair Lewis) was the first US correspondent to be expelled from Germany after interviewing Chancellor Hitler. She stated upon arrival in Paris that he "is no longer a man, he is a religion."
Thompson also got thrown out of the German-American Bund's massive NAZI rally at the Madison Square Garden in 1939 for heckling the speakers.
What a woman!
"The history of the German-American Bund reminds us that facism is ultra-nationalist. In other words, there is no such thing as foerign facism. Facism is always home grown."
- Sarah Churchwell, Cultural Historian.

in reply to Ada 🏳️⚧️ • • •The image features a character named Thea from a video game. Thea is depicted in a stylized, cartoonish art style, standing on a circular platform against a deep blue background. She has dark hair with a yellow streak and wears a white cap with a green feather, a yellow scarf, and a black and white outfit with gold accents. Thea is holding a small black creature with a white face and yellow eyes. The character's pose is confident, with one hand on her hip and the other holding the creature. At the bottom of the image, there are two buttons labeled "Confirm" and "A," indicating an interactive element. Above Thea, there are several small icons, possibly representing other characters or items. The overall color scheme is vibrant, with a focus on yellow, black, and white, set against the blue background.
