Self-taught software engineer that still has much left to learn. Circuit & code tinkerer, builder of yet-another overengineered solution, LED strip fanatic, father of 2 cats, linguaphile and armchair linguist. LGBTQ+ ally - still learning how to be a better ally while unlearning all the insensitive stuff I picked up growing up in a noninclusive community.

English is my mother tongue but might toot in Estonian on occasion (veaparandused on alati teretulnud). Currently studying Swedish, so might toot something på svenska now & again.

@adhdeanasl I read this like a movie pitch. I know it's not, but that didn't stop my brain from going "ok, but who's the hot lead"

@mconley I think this is the plot for the new Air Bud film: "Air Bud: Habeas borkus"

Paul O'Grady died a year ago.
It's 1987. The Metropolitan Police are waging an intimidation campaign against London's LBTQ+ community.
Wearing rubber gloves to "protect from AIDS" they raid the Royal Vauxhall Tavern
"Well well," says Lily Savage (Paul O'Grady) from the stage as the police pile into the venue. "It looks like we’ve got help with the washing up"
The raid was one of a number carried out by the police, using obscure laws as justification for their intimidation.
In this instance, the excuse was "reports of drunkenness on premises"
With Lily continuing to mock the police, she was handcuffed and arrested with others.
Paul refused to drop his alter ego for the entire duration events.
When she was booked in, and ordered to give her name the answer was "Lily Savage".
When a REAL name was demanded, the reply was:
"Lily Veronica Mae Savage"
On release, Lily was back on stage the next night.

@macberg The 25 & 26 lines in Nacka have a similar interior and many times I've felt the loud shrieks and violent shakes you mention. I wonder if their trains are the same models as the one you mentioned? Either way, I get the nostalgia - they certainly have more personality than the more modern trains. I hesitate to say I'd also prefer riding with them daily over the modern variety, as I do enjoy the quiet mornings in relative silence. Still, I think people should have the option to experience riding them, if only to experience a momentary glimpse of bygone days (maybe also human ingenuity?)

@SecureOwl I'm sorry none of these are short and catchy, but they did help me through my commute

If SQL is pronounced "sequel" then surely DNS is pronounced "Dennis"?
