I really like how “moving account” on mastodon seemingly means just permanently losing 5/6 of the people you interacted with and then having nobody to talk to here it’s really good and nice

(doing it the other way is $3 with an eta of 11 days or $38 for 4 days, no idea why it costs half as much for it to take half as long)

want to send a small letter from Canada to Australia?

so I guess it’s no wonder Wikipedia just goes [citation needed] because these sources are …not great

the only source which actually cites a reason and explains the history is this page which inexplicably doesn’t appear in search engines??? https://mattenglish.kinja.com/f-eh-q-the-mystery-of-the-missing-tim-hortons-apostrop-1672093421

ok so it looks like this is quote-unquote “true” but the only primary source is a now-deleted page which was once a digital copy of an article from a business magazine but is now only available archived (or presumably at a library in NYC) https://web.archive.org/web/20060318230325/http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa3718/is_200011/ai_n8927439/

this just seems fucking rude

hey did any version of macOS ship Aqua and any even partly-working HiDPI support? asking for a friend

oh wow uh… I’m pretty sure I couldn’t get a fixed background position to work last time I tried looking at this… Aqua’s *totally* plausible

ok ok but as part of the joke when you’re scrolling it’ll play doctor jones at a speed relative to how fast you’re scrolling
