Really enjoying Somerville so far, which is on sale and Steam Deck verified. It's made by some of the same people that made Limbo and Inside, which are two of my favorite games. It reminds me in ways of the classic "Out Of This World".

If anyone in @norniron wants to check if they’re on the electoral register, there’s an easy online way to do it now https://www.eoni.org.uk/Am-I-registered

I’ve just done it, and it only took a couple of minutes.

I went to the aquarium today and there was a guy in a wetsuit pushing a penguin around on a box, back and forth through the water

someone asked why and he says, "yeah, she kinda just really likes riding on the box"

I'm still not over it y'all

I'm going to start using the verb "Googled it" to mean "to take a widely used and well liked product and turn it into something horrific beyond HP Lovecraft's wildest imagination while coasting on inertia and the nostalgic memories of my users"

So, I went to this beautiful dairy yesterday, and when I got out of the car, one at a time about six dogs of various sizes and types come out to greet me. The last one was a little weiner dog, who just kept barking, and I was worried I was offending him in some way. The owner came out, and said, "Oh don't worry about that, he just loves attention, and belly rubs, but he doesn't know how to get them, so he just keeps barking, and scares people."
And sure enough the moment I crouched down, he stopped barking and rolled on his back for belly scratches. Anyway, I relate to this dog.

#TIL that elephants purr!

"Stand near an elephant herd, and you may feel a strange vibration in your chest. That’s not your heart beating in terror because you’re, well, standing next to an elephant herd. Or at least that’s not all it is. It’s also a sign that the elephants are talking to one another. Elephants are famous for their trumpeting, of course, but they also produce rumbles pitched so low that humans can’t hear them, only feel them as a sort of physical buzzing. Exactly how elephants do this has been a mystery — and while solving that mystery is not of first-order importance in understanding and preserving this largest of land animals, it would add new insight into how a whole range of species vocalize."

I was excited to read this study until I got to the sample...all men. So while the headline generalizes the findings, they actually have no idea about how exercise changes saturated fat metabolism in women because they did not study women. When reading studies, always look at the sample. Even today women are being excluded from health studies.

Sharing this graphic to help put today's attacks by the Tories on cyclists into some kind of perspective.

Their hate has real world implications, from cyclists being less safe as a result of harassment/attacks and by shifting the discussion away from the infrastructure improvements that would make everyone's lives better and safer.

Journalist: "So what do you think long-distance air travel is going to look like in 2050?"

Climate Scientist laughs derisively: "By 2050, most long-distance holiday destinations will be uninhabitable, so I expect the majority of long-distance air traffic to be non-existent by 2050."

Phew. Hadn't heard it THAT bleakly during a live interview yet.

Learn more than one programming language. It's the best thing you'll ever do.

Learn it enough to the point you prefer some of its idioms to your natural tongue.

It'll expand your worldview on software development.

Tech bros love to boast about moving fast and breaking things, so it comes as some relief to find an instance where they've moved at a more stately 17 knots and yet still utterly fucked it.

In this case the "it" being carpool vehicles. Programmed to treat movement without the engine being switched on as either theft or witchcraft, they instantly bricked themselves in response.

What happened when these vehicles travelled by ferry was perhaps predictable...
