I’ve finally decided to delete the Twitter app. Every time I get mixed up in a discussion, even technical discussions, almost like some sort of rule, somebody is swearing at me in 3 or 4 messages.

I’ve had enough. Elon Musk killed Twitter to make his own echo chamber. The bad people stuck around and the good people moved away.

I’d like to quit social media completely, but I still enjoy the occasional civil discussion. It’s impossible there.

I know, I’ve tried quitting Twitter before, but too many people moved back there to let it go completely.

This time, I’ll try to make it stick.

Most people who moved back, I rarely speak to anymore (maybe they quit too? I don’t know).

Maybe my occasional rambling here will attract more civil discussions instead of the blue tick parade.

Anyway, in a vague attempt to brighten up everyone’s day, here’s a house centipede I photographed yesterday. They’re quick little things, being able to run up to 60cm a second!

You really want them around, they hunt for bad insects, like mosquitoes, cockroaches and fire ants.

They’re generally friendly (they happily run onto your hand and sit there), but piss them off and they can bite which feels about the same as a bee sting.

@OverSoft Is the pinout always the same on these things?

A photo of a house centipede with text labels at the end of each leg, eg. reset, RXD, TXD, INT0, INT1, XCK, VCC, GND, resembling a pinout diagram of a microchip.
