@squirrel this toot comes from an octopus

@noelle @Vann@glitch.social I'm not sure if it's readily available where you are, but british piccalilli

@Vann@glitch.social or suggest a strong english or chinese mustard

Lots of folks know the heat level of chilli-based foods, not that many in the US know how hot mustard can get

@squirrel put them in a little box and tape it to the side of course!

@squirrel well, those are probably 3.7v for the square ones, just replace those with 18650s and duct tape them to the outside!

@squirrel oh ah, yeah, forgot yours was a tablet

@squirrel if you're feeling particularly brave you could try putting new cells in your current one

IIRC thinkpads use standard 18650 lithium cells

The Sam the Octopus method for verifying PGP signed messages:

Does it have a section at the bottom with "BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE" with a bunch of random looking characters in it? Then fuck it, it's probably legit

@noelle those are actually rebadged Intel NUCs if you fancy shopping around

@minego mostly for ssh at the moment, also occasional "I want to just use text-mode stuff with no distractions"

@Jo I'll admit I got mine for barter because it was donated to the charity shop I do some tech stuff for and if they sold it they'd only get it sent back to them because it wouldn't run minecraft well or whatever

The old Asus eeePCs make adorable little terminals for mucking about with

And they're cheap

I should really get a safe or something for my keys and documents and other stuff like that

I mean, it's not like anyone stealing my identity will get away with much but it's the principle of the thing

@squirrel hug and love all robots imo

RMS can fuck right off

This isn't even in response to anything in particular, he can just fuck off
