Last Notes npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King A rant worth reading: npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King @nprofile…awd8 I'm a little surprised that the em dashes aren't auto formatting for you. npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King Kinda gross how little mainstream news in the UK has reported on the sheer extent of the damage caused by Storm Goretti in #Cornwall last week. npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King @nprofile…548d that was a scary thread to read. npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King @nprofile…lx0q just bought. I'm fascinated to find out what the experience was like for you. npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King How are all the cool kids installing Linux on old Windows systems these days? I've got a USB stick and an interest in installing Mint on some old Dell hardware so that my parents can escape the Windows 10 deadline. npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King @nprofile…ywea that is obscene. npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King @nprofile…60lz that money could have been spent upgrading the national grid to help it better handle renewables, plus looking into and developing non-battery storage solutions for renewable generated energy like mechanical/kinetic storage solutions, along with just building renewable energy generation. npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King I've been gifted a very nice Russell Hobbs bread maker. npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King Do you know where your towel is? npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King So, after watching first two episodes of new Daredevil, I really can't understand all the headlines I've seen from "geek" sites saying new Daredevil is terrible. Hubbie and I thoroughly enjoyed the first two episodes that came out this week and we're looking forward to the rest. npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King @nprofile…y623 is this in relation to the new terms of service for Firefox? npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King Related to my earlier musings on Kindle ebooks... npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King I've been made redundant from my Marketing Manager role this week. npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King @nprofile…f6xa @nprofile…u9u3 a lot of Mastodon compatible apps have hard limits set on character limits, at least in the few I've tried. npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King @nprofile…u9u3 Buffer lets you schedule posts for Mastodon and has a free service level for scheduling up to 10 posts a time. It has apps for both Android and iOS. npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King Really hoping this hat I've finished knitting will fit my daughter. npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King @npub1h29…gq7w oh geez :( npub138cqvn2cg5knspxvef5q2uarje3nl36y7l8k65mwcahqkuym2y8s2k3ex5 Emily King @npub15zu…s7lx I think there's an irony that after loosening gambling laws during their last stint in government, Labour likely will have to be the ones to tighten them up again.
