My toddler asks to watch that one most days and it is just horrible! Especially when the episode ends with Ringo saying "I think he deserves his punishment, don't you?"

Yeah, completely crazy the lengths some players go to. People travel a long way for events or to exchange keys to make big links and fields. More of a trot around the park thing for me (and the occasional pub meetup)

That's odd to read. The scouts are very different in the UK. They have an explicit "Open to all" policy. I know several scout leaders who are gay, plenty who are women, and I believe they've removed the mention of god fr

Never played Pokemon Go but in Ingress I'm pretty sure playing with multiple accounts (and devices) was a bannable offense. I did meet a guy who carried a ridiculous amount of gear for playing. Batteries, portable wifi modules for grou

Wife and I use the Kore app. Less likely to forget where my phone is than a dedicated remote. Handy to have the youtube plugin and share a video to kodi from that app too.

Tried to combine running a craft beer retailer with some remote programming work for a while. Struggled with it as customers always appear at the wrong moment and switching between brain modes was weird and didn't help me concentrate w

To be fair I'd take that (and similar fades on DS1/2) over Homme's obsession with false endings from Sky Valley onwards

It's rare to outright block an instance (for not moderating child porn or something of course but not otherwise really) Instead most "blocks" are just muting from the federated timeline, precisely so that you're not cut

You can mark an account as having moved and specify to where.

I thought we were comparing Mastodon to Twitter where what you say is already the case Moving instances is not a big deal and yes, know your admin.

Sounds like pg has never owned or run a restaurant. Producing good food is much riskier than producing microwaved slop.

The way I'd do it is set up a bot account that toots your twitter timeline, make it a locked account and only approve your mastodon account, make your replies to your mastodon bot then be tweeted from your twitter account. Build your o

You can export and import your follows. Yes it would be a different account. There is an option to mark your old account as "account has moved" and specify where you've gone, which an app could treat as a redirect.
