I had a dream last night that for some reason my printer, underneath the bit with the buttons, had an area for a second set of ink cartridges, and I was so annoyed that I now needed to buy four ink cartridges just to refill my printer.
Time for your obligatory annual contribution to Jonathan Coulton’s analytics. https://youtu.be/WzZaJDg6E0A
Dang what I gotta do to get an account on the EU Mastodon instance?

One of my first acts as a developer on the UK government's web team is to abolish Internet Explorer from the UK government's web presence.
Public proposal is here: https://github.com/alphagov/govuk-frontend/discussions/2607

Helo do you have bones?
Also I noticed that a bunch of my usernames, stretching back to the early 2000s, have referenced robots or machinery. How on earth did I only _just_ make a robot my fursona?!
Years and years ago I had a logo in the form of a bat head silhouette with a gear in it.
It didn't get used much and generally got displaced by other symbols later on, especially when I rebranded my personal site to "Grey's Adventures" and changed it to a rocket ship.
Anyway, I brought it back.
Done some personal website updates for ~reasons~. RSS feed works now, and there's a page with links to places on it: https://berly.kim/contact

To all new folks comin' here:
You'll get more out of Mastodon by using unofficial mobile apps such as Tusky (Android) and Metatext (iOS) than through the official app.
You get a two more timelines to view: a Local timeline, and a Federated timeline.
The Local timeline consists of all public posts made by other people on the same instance/server you're on, while the Federated timeline consists of public posts including people outside of your instance.
You can the unofficial apps here: https://joinmastodon.org/apps
I did a bio update but I don't think I ever actually tooted— I work for the government now.
Pros: Good pay, good benefits, actually really great people who are good at their jobs.
Cons: Lots of paperwork, not allowed to continually rant about politics anymore.

Earlier today I said "I command no mandate over the exploits of the heart" in a conversation and I would be remiss to not mention that must be one of the most Shakespeare-level eloquent-as-fuck things I've ever said.
L'il bio update. Also I wrote a (normie-oriented) explanation for why there's a robot bat on the internet. https://berly.kim/blog/2022-04-10-a-robot-bat-on-the-internet/
