Today I learned that MILF does not mean “Mastodonian I’d Like to Follow” and excuse me while I go back and edit several dozen posts.

@MissingThePt I still cherish the memory of a radio guy at Wrigley Field for a Cubs game referring to "squadrons of MILFs" on WGN years ago.

Toyota is toying with an EV prototype that mimics driving a manual transmission, complete with a stick shift that doesn’t do anything and fake engine noises. Other technological holdovers we should preserve: — Laptops have fake external dial-up modems that make loud squawking noises whenever you are online. — Cellphones have large rotary dials mounted on top of the screen. — Pressing a car accelerator plays a recording of a galloping horse and a person shouting “heeyaw!”

@MissingThePt Ok, you joke, but there's actually a device that mimics hard drive sounds for SSDs installed in retro computers. Also, more to your point, I literally have thought about adding dial-up sounds to the start-up sequence of the serial-wifi modem I made to get my 1994 Mac Powerbook 520c on my network. https://www.tomshardware.com/news/hdd-clicker-v02-restores-aural-ambience-of-pre-ssd-life

I’m starting my own for-profit Mastodon instance. I’ll be serving up ads and selling data about you (three commas club here I come!), and I’m going to decide what you see, what the rules are (they may change!), and who can join (and be forewarned, I’ve been feeling a little alt-righty lately). Who’s in?!

NEW MASTODON USERS: If you are having trouble with Mastodon, try turning it Mastodoff and then Mastodon again.

@MissingThePt @DHSDarcy My contracts not up with Rogers for another year in September yet so I’ll be waiting for the 16 and at that point I’ll decide if there’s anything that really saves me to get the new one I’ll go for it as always |
