@mavica yeah, LED displays have so much more charm to them than the LCDs

Also, equally useful in the dark, as you'd have to press a button for a backlight on an LCD to read it

Here's an interesting look at how things can change in the watch world

This is an advert from a jewellers from 1977 offering an Omega Speedmaster for £158 next to a Seiko Digital Chronograph for £165

These days it costs £4,700 for a Speedmaster and under £20 for an equivalent digital watch

HEY @mavica ! YOU'RE GOOD!

I hear it's appreciate a dragon day

appreciate all dragons

@mavica this has been peeped

As I've started seeing hedgehogs again I thought I'd do a toot about how to care for the little critters if they happen to live where you are

If you've got a garden fence, try putting a little gap at the bottom so they can move from garden to garden easier, or a 14cm x 14cm hole in a corner

They like eating cat biscuits, maybe leave a little bowl of those out for them

And they always like having some water handy, a small dish of that is super helpful to them

🦔 !

First one out of hibernation I think!

I want an Alien cuckoo clock

big xenomorph head on the wall with the inner jaw thing doing the cuckoo bit

@mavica when the jaws open wide and there's more jaws inside

that's a moray

someone who's been paying more attention than me do "we didn't start the fire" but with masto stuff

🎶 pineapples and wound cubes
people posting cursed food
moderators banning cops
massive lack of tops 🎶

@mavica good huggable computer with pawbs!

@wigglytuffitout that'd be because it's like painting a picture with a canvas that very inconsiderately keeps moving

@Nine @mavica you'd love messing around with minimodem

it's a simple tool to convert arbitrary data into and out of an audio stream

can be used to transfer files between computers with just an audio cable

@djsundog even better served on a credit-card sized piece of plastic that can go in your pocket, printed alongside various other useful things

reggie is big handsome floof
