@ginny @cendawanita asking the hard questions.
@josh @cendawanita do you really think Twitter will exist in a recognizable form in 7 years?
@cstross one of the previous record holders, John Howard (who was on her crew!) actually flatted in an attempt because he didn’t have an airtight valve cover and the valve spring was depressed by the rotational force. He managed to keep the bike upright.
So I heard there was a cursed tone
That Gaurav shot, and it broke your phone
But you don't really care for gamuts, do ya?

The seemingly normal wallpaper of a lake has bricked the phones of dozens of android users.

@isabelzawtun @pronoiac Henny Youngman was older than either.
@dirtyoldtown Not a problem if you look like Saruman.

My entry for #NaNoGenMo:

"████ ██ Ishmael"

Take one #MobyDick and black out all repeated words, preserving punctuation. We show each word on its first occurrence, but all subsequent appearance are replaced with █ characters.

The book starts out with lots of words showing, and just a few blacked out, but quickly obscures the most common words.

The runs of two words are somewhat poetic, as only infrequent words pepper the final pages.

████ ██ Ishmael · Issue #46 · NaNoGenMo/2022

Inspired by @leonardr's ████, here's my quick get-something-out-of-the-way entry so I can spend the rest of the month on something else. Oh wait... I have a feeling someone may have done so...

@futurebird I’m mostly using it on my phone only because the desktop interface is much worse. Waiting for a better app.
@iamkimiam Other quirks are:
- Zooming in on an image, if it has a lot of explanatory text, the text will obscure the image.
- There's a dual-purpose screen widget for pivoting between accounts and for switching to the "local timeline" view. It took me a minute to figure out the second function.
I'm attaching a screenshot.
