syria 

Putting aside the question of if bombing Syria is a good idea or not because god knows I'm not paying enough attention to make a judgement on that, could Theresa May have at least waited a couple of hours to send our shit in so it wasn't as patently obvious that Trump said "Jump" and she asked "How high?"

An oldie but a goodie: The Case of the 500-Mile Email:

"We're having a problem sending email out of the department."

"What's the problem?" I asked.

"We can't send mail more than 500 miles," the chairman explained.

I choked on my latte. "Come again?"

"We can't send mail farther than 500 miles from here," he repeated. "A little bit more, actually. Call it 520 miles. But no farther."

global pol, syria 

Apparently the Russians are saying that the most recent chemical attack in Syria was staged and directed by Britain

Honestly Russia, make your lies believable, our government couldn't stage and direct a piss-up in a brewery

I keep tooting pictures and articles about really expensive watches, let's take this back to basics

This is the Casio MQ24-7BLL

It costs less than even the venerable F91-W, it's made of plastic and shows the hour, minute, and second only

Despite that, it's fucking brilliant

For less than the price of a cup of coffee you get a highly legible, accurate enough, reliable watch

And if you want celebrity endorsements, the fucking Pope wears one

A young squirrelbunbot stands in her room. As it just so happens, today, the 13th of April in 2018, is the first anniversary of computerfairi.es . Thought it was a year ago that she began her mastodonian journey, it is only today that she will be--

Oh, I see, your name is maple.

I was trying to explain the concept of a "smartwatch" to someone

"...and that's what it does"
"but why?"
"no idea"

If anyone does know why smartwatches are a thing, answers on a postcard please

Technical Note: We originally wrote this article in Word, but then we converted it to Latex to make it look more like science.

I absolutely love this whole ✨ Plush Punk ✨ concept

Oh hey, it's the 12th today! HAPPY BIRTHDAY COMPUTERFAIRI.ES AND HAPPY ADMINVERSARY TO @squirrel !

I've got that weird itchy feeling that there's something blindingly obvious I've not noticed, no idea what or why

Eh, I'm sure it's either nothing or I'll notice it eventually

I want to have one and paint it up like a vw camper owned by a hippie
