I remember when I first saw a CPC464 in a shop I was working in, in 1984.

It was a very neat answer to what the market needed in 1982. But by 1984, cassette storage and Z80s were clearly long in the tooth—it came out the same year as the Macintosh, and 12 months late Atari STs and Amigas were showing up.

@cstross @keyboards I think I remember our own first Amstrad - our first home computer! Despite its many limitations, it was a functioning workhorse for the guts of 5 years, before we "graduated" to something Microsoft.

Every blanket can be a weighted blanket if you have enough cats.

So, I finished the 2nd sleeve of the small cardigan for my 3-yo daughter. Hurray!

Only an i-cord edge of the fronts and neckline left to do.... only... I finished all the yarn.

So I'm thinking about going all mad and doing the i-cord edge in a totally different colour. Maybe even black? mastodonians... what do you think?? I do have a second skein of the same yarn, but... what to do!!

@knitting
Well under way for the !!!

    @greengaybles @3goodthings Just being here also for those times when we genuinely cannot count our blessings, realizing that and not forcing ourselves to perform grateful.

    You're so generous with yourself, it's good that you can also look after the source of you! ;)

    Can people who see this tell me nice and happy things going on with them at the moment?

    Just... well. Please?

    Thanks in advance.

    Cats never wonder why people bring them food. They never wonder if they deserve to be massaged and tucked away into warm arms, or why there is a lap to sit on, and fine blankets and pillows when the lap is not there.

    Cats have a deep and centered sense of deserving all of these things. "Of course I should be loved."

    I think it's one of the things I like most about cats. And when I feel depressed I try to emulate them.

    @futurebird Wise words.

    Thank you.

    Please, I don't wanna hear "oops I guess you're right and that was wrong, ChatGPT must have inserted an error when it generated this statement for me" anymore

    Accountability is critical in human relationships, it should be critical in our "AI" relationships too, and definitely you can't pass the buck to "well haha we don't consider that thing accountable and I used it"

    @cwebber Keyword - ACCOUNTABILITY.

    Sensing a lack of it in our world and from the various authorities we must contend with, that just eats up one's energy like nothing else.

    Hey, everybody, the CDC says we should stop eating raw cookie dough because 18 people were sickened.

    Meanwhile, keep breathing in in big crowded spaces without a mask. It's only hospitalized 422,000 and killed 38,000 Americans so far in 2023.

    @augieray I'm filing this right next to the "don't eat raw chopped beef" advisory.

    (In Belgium, for a bit of context.)

    I’ve realized I never talk about my or on here! Here’s a bunch of my yarn, spun by me on my spinning wheel, from the past 10 years. I need to actually knit with it at some point!

    OldBrushNewPaper,
    @OldBrushNewPaper@wandering.shop avatar

    @starshaped Oh, can we be friends?

    (I mean, you can see this is a transparent attempt to get to your yarn, right? blushing)

    The signs over the entrances of future concentration camps will not say "Arbeit Macht Frei" (work makes freedom) but "Jesus Loves You."
