If you want to get "The Secret Rules of the Terminal" (or any other zine!) and you're in a country with a weaker currency than the US (India, Brazil, etc), there's a discount to make the zines more affordable. You can see it in action here:

If you're in a country this applies to, you should see something like this:

i wish i were good at sound design so i could make something like the windows xp system sounds

Hey, so it seems that most of Rowling's money is coming from licensing deals nowadays. And you can be pretty sure that most of the companies paying for those deals don't believe in Rowling's hateful politics anywhere near as much as Rowling herself does.

Which is to say: if you create continuous hassle and reputation damage for any place that has such a licensing deal, and for any place that stocks the licensed stuff... I bet they're going to reconsider extending those license deals real quick, as it becomes a toxic asset.

If you're visiting the Netherlands and you want authentic & cheap "fast food" style food, you need to visit a "snackbar".

There are some chains, like Febo, but typically they're locally & independently owned and operated.

They do offer some items you might recognise, such as hamburgers. But most of the menu is unique to snackbars and the most popular & beloved items are among those.

I wrote a little guide about some of these items here: https://martijnfrazer.nl/food/

OH: "Q is known for breaking things by standing next to them, and by having a short name. Can you try standing next to parliment for a bit next time you're in the UK?"

I prefer to buy my stuff in store.

Decathlon, a French company so always a bit strange, sends me by e-mail a 5% discount code for my whole order but only on the website or in the app. I do want a tent, so ok, discount is welcome. One of the other items I want is only available online, not in store, but most items are.

What does Decathlon:
- The stuff available in store: home delivery is € 2,99, pick up in store is free.
- The stuff not available in store: home delivery is free, pick up in store is € 1,99

So, now my order is split in two in two delivery methodes because I don't want to my discount to disappear in delivery fees 🙄

hello. today i caught a software bug for you. *drops it at your feet* can you, um…. fix this?

Language is important.
I'm tired of media euphemisms.
It's not climate skeptic, it's climate denier.
It's not vaccine skeptic, it's anti-vaxxer.
And it's "lies" and "racism" and "genocide" and "war." Words have meaning.

When you make the pitch for accessibility, be prepared for pushback. There are several myths and misconceptions, so it's good to be aware of what they are and how to dispel them.

hot take that shouldnt be hot at all: "expat" is an inherently classist and racist term used by rich white immigrants who want to distance themselves from the "poor and dirty" immigrants who are often also poc

like no james, you're an immigrant too, whether you like it or not

In de herhaling voor leden van mastonederland.nl:

Met pijn in mijn hart moet ik jullie laten weten dat ik binnenkort deze Mastodon instance zal sluiten.

Het is niet langer houdbaar om praktische en persoonlijke redenen. Ik kan er niet de tijd, de aandacht en het geld insteken dat het nodig heeft. Ik wil iedereen bedanken die hier actief is geweest.

De instance blijft nog even (ongeveer een maand) online zodat de vaste gebruikers tijd hebben om hun account te verhuizen.

Dank voor alles!

Quick, if the production endpoint is https://documentapi.prod.fedex.com/documents/v1/etds/upload, what should the sandbox endpoint be?

If you answered https://documentapitest.prod.fedex.com/sandbox/documents/v1/etds/upload, why.
