So we have code-blocks/quotes support for incoming messages, but I still can't use them in my own posts on mastodon.social?

Am I missing something?

Novel? Or globally unique IDs burned into hardware again?

The loudest #GravitationalWave in #GWTC4 is #GW230814

Detected with only Livingston, it was still about twice as loud as GW150914!

Being loud should enable precision tests of general relativity, but with only one detector, you need to be careful with the analysis

I was looking for the Brian David Gilbert PokéRap but I misremembered and searched for "Neil Cicieraga PokeRap" and of course, of course that is also a thing that exists.

Found a quaint knitting store in downtown Bellevue. It's impeccably designed in a way that just makes you want to stay there forever :-)

It was quite a happy coincidence, as my daughter actually needed some yarn, and having realized there were no Michaels stores nearby, my wife suddenly stumbled on this one, which was a 2 minutes walk away. So glad we didn't go to any dreary Michaels!

just like to point out that ouija boards are cheap, have very little environmental impact, predate chatgpt by over 100 years, and are just as capable at telling you what you'd like to hear

they may be harder to use at first but with a little dedication most people should have no trouble getting the results they want

Pro tip for Californians: If you try to get a COVID-19 vaccine at Walgreens, they will ask you if you have a condition that puts you at high risk, and what it is.

The correct answer is "smoking".

Who said cigarettes are bad for you?
