@tryst sounds about right - this also is at least part of the reason I tend to leave that to people who actually know what they're talking about, but at least it should hopefully do the trick :)
@tryst that happened when we got out new oven as well - apparently there's an issue where, if they sit in a warehouse a while, might end up a touch more moist than they can handle, and they basically need to sit on a bench supply for a while to dry themselves out... hopefully it's just that :)
@Saki Vibri is best princess
@cinnamonvector damn, that's not a nice prize... please take care, watch the nastier symptoms, and if you could tell your body from me that it better sort this out with the swiftness, hopefully it'll listen :)

A reminder: furry is punk, furry is counter-culture. The fandom exists as a backlash to the social rules imposed by our society. This group is the most genuine, most empathetic collection of people you will find in a world where being genuine, lifting others up, and having empathy are seen as weakness. We are all here for many different reasons but we are all in this together.

For the love of life people just switch to firefox. Chrome sucks. No, Brave sucks too. Get out of there, and get Firefox with uBlock Origin.

It's #BandcampFriday, the day where Bandcamp waives their fees and all the profits go towards the artists!
As usual, if you haven't checked out my music I'd recommend my album "In Flux" to start!
Bandcamp Friday's are the best way to support independent artists. On average, when someone buys a copy of "In Flux" it's the equivalent of 1700 individual streams on Spotify!
@RedIzak aw buppy! Always hugs, yes :)

I dream of a world in which everyone can engage in their weird niche hobbies with reckless abandon and post about them online, fully embracing their cringe and letting everyone else in to enjoy.
@Plus_Ultra this literally came up in the org voice chat earlier, thank you for the link :D
@Dairishgoat the critically overlooked Electric Dreams anthology series? ;)

Remembrance has become a performative act here in the UK, a means by which people demonstrate their patriotism to each other and pay lip service to the dead, all while ignoring the human cost of conflict.
If poppy disease makes you feel sick, give a couple of quid to SSAFA instead. SSAFA is the Armed Forces charity. They've successfully managed to avoid being politicised and have stayed true to their mission.

When somebody asks "does this software need to be accessible to people with disabilities?” the answer you're looking for is “any level of discrimination is unacceptable and illegal.”

The #Tories are a real & present danger to #democracy as it now seems they are seeking to widen the definition of 'extremism' to include anyone who is 'undermining' Britain!
Such a catch-all phrase will likely give the police the ability to shut down pretty much any dissent:.
The leaked document states: 'Extremism is the promotion or advancement of any ideology which aims to overturn or undermine the UK’s system of parliamentary democracy, its institutions & values'!

Software influences energy consumption. Knowing how to minimize it can improve battery life and is greener for the environment.
Learn how we are working on this at KDE in 'Measuring energy consumption of software' from #Akademy2023, now available online.
