my phone doesn't deal with low light at all well but you can just about make out a big hedgie!

In at least android Pie dialing the emergency number from the IT Crowd will make the call button blink different colours and the phone vibrate

That number is 0118 999 881 999 119 725 3

4 new models from Sinn!

2 new 104s, both with sunburst dials, one in blue and the other in a rather fetching anthracite

A new U1, this time with a blue dial in a similar shade to the T1/T2 B

And most interestingly, a new limited edition model with case and dial made from tegimented damascus steel, the 1800!

*sigh* could my parents please use a password manager or something?

"Hey, can you put an order in for $thing for me?"
"Sure, put in your $shop password"
"I don't know what it is"
"... well how the fuck do you expect me to know, it's your account!"

So, as we've covered CDPR doing things incredibly badly, I'm gonna shout out a game company that does some things right

I've gotten into Fallen London for the past couple of days and they have all kinds of options for how characters in the game will address you that you can change any time you like

Including non-binary options!

Well done Failbetter Games on that one

anyone who defines themselves as a "gamer" can go get comprehensively fucked

tired: arguing about pineapple on pizza
wired: PUTTING PICKLES ON PIZZA

if a rule you've made about contributing to a software project is "bury the dead" you're doing development very, very wrong

went shopping today and a whole load of signs were up for this "noel" bloke

don't know what that's about

I mean seriously, look at this fucker right here

Couldn't even be bothered to get a decent logo made up, just a few seconds in paint and "give money plx"

y'know, it's not even the concept of "trying to monetise the fediverse" that I have the most problem with, I don't like it but corper fucks gonna corp

it's the fact that most of the people trying it are putting so little effort in

I'm offended by the sheer lack of effort

I wonder if the person/people behind this albin thing are regretting their life decisions yet
