A plurality.

WebAssembly: Mozilla Won http://robert.ocallahan.org/2017/06/webassembly-mozilla-won.html
@Eve When we came back to qabbalah this time, the Rider-Waite was de rigueur with the Guardians of Grace, but that was many years ago in this meatbag. Since then, we feel that decks which reference The Hanging Man, rather than The Hanged Man, generally have a more cohesive set of imagery across all the arcana.
Those that reference hanged rather than hanging tend to miss the entire point of the somersault across the abyss of the eleventh sephira and consequently the necessary link to the dark sea of awareness and the need to avoid the paths of the ten qlippoth like a plague. Unless, of course, you prefer chaos to creation.
@geekylou We thought the idea was to travel to destinations on the buses rather than follow them?
@alyx If anything on them is more arcane than that, well, Edward Snowden's approach, "always consider that the NSA has root" applies.
@alyx Not foolish, just watch what they're up to for a while with wireshark, pretty soon be obvious if the firmware's been suborned and is calling home.
Across a reasonable part of this meatbag's existence, one of our pluarality has been a farrier. While our mechanical science is well established, maybe even archaic, our handling skills are predicated on an agreement of equals, a somewhat more restricted realm that once more met its match today.
We've had to allow that a particular horse is going require anaesthesia. Not for dealing with physical pain, but for psychological trauma.
We're familiar with the use of analgesia and anaesthesia when dealing with somatic injury, however today we're struggling again with the emotions of effectively, mind rape.
So we stood in the shower and cried. It didn't help.
things i wish was in the matrix
Neo: "Doesn't harvesting human body heat for energy, violate the laws of thermodynamics?"
Morpheus: "Where'd you learn about thermodynamics, Neo?"
Neo: "In school."
Morpheus: "Where'd you go to school, Neo?"
Neo: "Oh."
Morpheus: "The machines tell elegant lies."
We're very melancholy. Even The Sabbath has only caused a small uplift, which is far from its usual effect of absurd comfort.
Not that the feed is absurd, simply that we enjoy the innate happiness the totality of the feed usually engenders.
We may try to sleep for a while. The demon side of our plurality is becoming intrusive with the onset of melancholy. Sometimes sleep quietens the beasts.
@geekylou Not just tourists.
Breathlessly: "Oh, Sophie, did you see Tom Cruise walking along the road? Isn't it wonderful. Did you know his jet landed at Stonyridge Vineyard an hour ago."
Abruptly: "No we didn't fucking see him and no it isn't fucking wonderful and no we don't fucking care where his jet landed."
"Well, you don't have to be like that about it."
"Well, you don't have to stand in front of the ATM and witter on like some star-struck teen about it. Are you finshed yet? We want to to take out some cash then go to Molly's and get drunk and you're making that very difficult."
@nire communica…
then we brush jinx on the soft keyboard and
"Oh, FFS!"
"Shall we delete it and start again?"
"Nah, that'll do."
@alyx Agree, completely. Never understood why birdsite chose to divide our interactions in ways that made following back through time an impossible set of swaps.
If masto could give us a sequentialised tree as our TL (will need an arbitrary or specifiable depth*n of related accounts, difficult SQL, not impossible) then we'd be very, very happy.

Just went away for a dig and mulled on the idea, the data structure would have to be heavily normalised, which it doesn't look like from a cursory pass through.
Damnation. The overhead would probably be too intense for reasonable performance with the existing structure.
@AirDur Oh FFS, couldn't even type embarrassed correctly.
@AirDur Apologies to you and anyone else, we thought we did include a CW. No excuse for getting it wrong. *embarassed*
@matthias Apologies to you and anyone else, we thought we did include a CW. Does a blank CW field not have a default warning?
@cigazze Brave is the basically the only browser we've used for months now on android and linux, can't comment on the windows version. Also have Chrome, Firefox, and Opera installed, haven't needed to touch them lately. Apart from debugging in FF but that's different from general use.
