@mjg59 i mean the easiest answer is to carry cash, it should be absurd for anywhere to have weird acceptance and also not take cash

Oh hey people who know Vienna - is contactless well supported there or should I dig out one of my actual chip+pin cards? -
I celebrated the last day of brat summer (which was yesterday in hamburg) by making bratkartoffeln for dinner.I'm not sure charli xcx would approve but shrug.@erincandescent @ao it's very amusing to me that that article has an entire section dedicated to an epidemic of them lighting on fire, something which is the most British thing ever.
anyway, i too have banished all teflon cookware from my house and i rather enjoy using steel cooking spatulas on cast iron and stainless pans. stuff that shouldn't stick goes in the cast iron, stuff that has acid goes in the stainless. never any worries about heat. i don't miss em either.

my most pro-windows take is that everyone should have copied io completion ports instead of making usermode software developers reimplement them with extra steps@artemist what a fun article https://notgull.net/device-afd/

I'm sick and tired of being expected to keep careful track of a web of relationships that should not be my problem so I don't get targeted by collective punishment by some authority that shouldn't be my problem either. Abusive-childhood ass website.

such decisions are completely hidden by the ui leading to follows just vanishing, profiles being silently unavailable, and more. you don't know as a user that someone on the moderation team caused another instance admin to collectively punish your entire instance over their personal behaviour.

When I was in college I had a course on Principles of Programming Languages.@hrefna learning haskell broke my brain in the right ways to start seeing language concepts as the isomorphisms they are, and I'm very thankful for it. it helps me every day I'm writing OO code because now i *get* what structure I'm building.
