@mir_btc BTW, this is the best tool I've found for managing data collections: https://git-annex.branchable.com/

Basically it's a git addon for big files, letting you pick and choose what files you want, and keeping track of where you can get those files.

@mir_btc Maybe! Easy to both accidentally connect them online, and also, some ebook readers have cell phone data links in them.

@notmandatory Honestly my best guess is it was a last minute order for some church potluck or something. Lots of (illegal) community events in my neighborhood. I forgot to mention it above but there was also 10kg or so of frozen fries in the order.

@mir_btc Tricky with digital books as most of them can be "updated" remotely.

I had the following misdelivered to my apartment:

40L of skim milk
90 eggs
45 yogurt cups
16 bars of soap
60 bottles of water
680g of Tim Horton's instant coffee
1000 packets of splenda
...and 1.4kg of cauliflower rice.

Not sure if that was for the world's worst restaurant, or the world's worst preppers. 😂

@mir_btc Yup, mandatory in schools and pretty much anywhere inside. Students were forced to wear those masks. In fact, they were shedding so many particles that they were _causing_ wearers to cough; Health Canada didn't take the initiative on this.

@verretor This stuff is so ridiculous that if a future government decided to ignore the "Nulla poena sine lege praevia" principal - the prohibition of retroactive punishments for laws that didn't exist at the time - to go after these criminals, honestly, I'd find it hard to care.

@verretor It'll be interesting to see if anyone sues the schools over this.

I won't be surprised if they get civil immunity due to it being an "emergency".

@mir_btc You haven't aged a day since that photo.

Fortunately, Giacomo has.

4.6 million graphene-based masks got distributed, which Health Canada have banned due to the potential for asbestos-like harms.

Given how little threat COVID poses to schoolkids - about 20 deaths/million infections in the 0-18 age range - it would not be surprising at all if more eventually die from wearing these masks than from covid itself.

Idiots.

@verretor I like how you've left the type of aliens ambiguous.

@drgo @orionwl BTW, note that your debug.log shows more stuff in it with the -debug switch.

@alex @feld Yes, for USB-C headphones.

(please tell me that's just a joke... it's way too plausible...)
