The car has £5k worth of faults and we've only had it six months. Obviously not going to get these fixed and gonna have to start looking for a new car AGAIN.

Gonna take it back to the dealership that we bought it from and have a proper chat about it.

Dropped the car off at the garage. It's got a gearbox issue. I hope it's not gonna be too much to fix. :s

Still finding my footing with this girl (Creature Comforts). She works interior/exterior design and has problems with it

Breaking news: We've taken the next step to challenge the ban on puberty blockers

We have asked for an urgent hearing that will seek to quash the ban. It is clear that this ban is having a devastating - and harmful - impact on young trans people and we do not believe that waiting is an option.

You can support the case by donating to cover the legal costs: tinyurl.com/blocker-legal-fund

mutual aid request, groceries 

Hello, we're a group of disabled critters who need some help buying food. We had to have an anti-bug heat treatment on friday and that destroyed some of our stocks of food... and ate through what cash we had, because we had to pay out of pocket for some expenses that we'll be reimbursed for but until that happens we have absolutely nothing on hand.

Probably need about 200 bucks for food order to cover a couple weeks.

i was on HRT for five years before i was on transgender HRT. i was on a low dose of spironolactone for my blood pressure. the doc just gave it out like nothing. it's just when someone wants lower T for gender reasons that it's suddenly something the state needs to violently stop.

I feel like surely people on this network would appreciate knowing that the BBC sound effect library, from which you may freely download, has 716 distinct recordings of clocks specifically sound-effects.bbcrewind.co.uk/

Just posting a quick watercolour badge that was done for me by @Olivitree at the Confuzzled dealers den this year.

It is fantastic that AI companies can freely scrape copyrighted stuff from the Internet, but downloading of `youtube-dl` is illegal in the whole EU, because Hamburg regional court said so .. 🤦‍♂️

Endless rage at commentators that say things like "Kids these days are addicted to their devices" because:

1. Look at adults. We are too.
2. Why do you think that is? Perhaps because we built cities where you NEED to drive to go anywhere and EVERYTHING costs a ton of money that young ppl don't have?
3. When young ppl DO hang out together they get called loiterers, troublemakers and get the police called.
4 The solution they have is to ban their phones instead of listening to their needs.

Did you know that Activision were due to release an ambitious Alien VS Predator game in 1993, where you had essentially three different games in one. It was tragically canned after licence issues.

MH(-), hair 

Basically I want to have a style that's femme, low maintenance, and at least partly obscures/covers up the thinning spot on my crown

somebody asked how people who have historically been anti-copyright could be against AI content theft, so let me give this a shot:

Information wants to be free to enrich human knowledge. It does not want to be free to make human knowledge worse to enrich the pockets of assholes

Interesting discussion from ICS vendors on who to pin liability on for the security performance of open-source code given the upcoming EU Cyber Resilience Act.

I'd argue that, if you want to use an open-source project in a product that you intend to sell, you should be contributing to that project, e.g. by auditing the code and fixing vulnerabilities.

The free lunch for vendors is over.

Today's the last day you can register to vote in the upcoming general election.
