Fun fact: St. Joshua is the patron saint of spies and other sneaky fuckers

Somewhat appropriately he's also not actually a saint by catholic standards

@HTHR@cybre.space he/he/he/him/him/him if you go in for the whole trinity thing

what's annoying is that I have three other thinkpad batteries lying around but none of them are for an x230

huh, laptop battery just shat itself

haven't been using it anywhere other than my desk for a while but I should probably get a new battery at some point

or it's the laptop gods telling me to upgrade

the pinebook pro thingy coming out some time this year does look pretty neat

ah yes, pancake day, the day I remember that none of the pans are quite the right shape for pancakes

@maple nom

@wolfcoder yep, he did indeed, he was looking for feedback on them I think

I didn't save the post so I'm afraid it does come down to my memory

@wolfcoder the slide did say "proud member of FBI's Infragard"

which is a bloody weird way of putting it

@Nezumi the gibson of hackers.town posted slides he was going to use for a presentation announcing him as "proudly a member of the FBI's Infragard"

the fediverse then exploded

"Skynet! Why did you nuke everyone?!?!"
*Skynet gestures towards the petabytes of trash in the facebook mod queue*
"...okay, yeah, good reason"

Facebook wants to do most of their moderation with an AI

Do you want Skynet?

This is how you get Skynet

By exposing an AI to the worst of facebook's mod queue so it naturally comes to the conclusion that humanity should be nuked

It's not that someone admitted to talking to the cops

Sometimes you have to, say, if there's a court order or if you feel the need to tell them to fuck off and die in a fire

It's the "proudly" talking to the cops

That's a bit like a hospital janitor saying that their absolute favourite thing to do in their job is to dispose of all the gangrenous limbs that have been amputated

It's weird and frankly a little bit suspect

Considering the new linens spam I think they may have misunderstood when I called this the comfiest softest of instances

@Siphonay@octodon.social the gibson of hackers.town outed himself as an FBI informant (technically part of their "Infragard" thingy but "FBI informant" has a better ring to it) and everything got a bit loud

more like FEDiverse am i right?!

@maple hi! 🐙
