@Jo works with some stuff

shorting the data lines on the device side will tell the device that it's a charging-only USB cable instead of a data cable, if the device thinks it's a data cable it'll obey the spec and only sip 500mA, if it's a charge cable it'll pull more current

Or at least that's how it used to be, I have no idea what things are like now with quickcharge and usb c and all that stuff

The furries have invaded mastodon in much the same way the romans invaded that city built next to the river Tiber in Italy

I'm pretty sure I've been making references to the fediverse being "Animal Crossing: the social network" from since then as well

Always funny seeing people who joined the fediverse in one of the twitter exoduses... exodi... exodes... whatever acting like they're the first people to turn up to the party

I got here in april-ish of '17 and I'm far from an OT (original toota), people have been having fun here for ages

@maple also the best in my opinion

I'd be posting pictures of big hedgie but she's gotten into the habit of hiding in the back of the cafe

I haven't actually watched the video, but from one clip I've seen Joe Rogan was talking about mixing tobacco with weed as some amazing thing he was "turned on to"

Fucker, were you really so goddamn rich as a kid you had enough weed to smoke without having to pad it out with tobacco?

Sometimes I have to feel sorry for Torvalds, certainly not often, but sometimes

He "accidentally booked a family holiday to Edinburgh" the same week as a Linux conference he had to go to in Vancouver and the Linux Foundation decided to move the conference to Edinburgh so he still has to go

Bastard just wanted a damn holiday

@maple best robot

The local under-10s rugby team is collecting donations by standing at end of the local tesco checkouts and offering to pack bags for everyone

By which I mean everyone is giving them money to stay the hell out of the way while we pack our shopping

@SupperMarioBroth@octodon.social well that's just speciesist *crosses tentacles*

@posiputt looking around my little corner of the fediverse, it seems most of them
