Myanmar be cutting off its nose to spite its face.

Well, you can’t beat Oxford and Cambrige. If you want an online dictionary, though, I prefer Wiktionary.

I use Evolution and FairEmail. A fork is all well and good, but if you want out of the bullshit you have to get out of the ecosystem.

I have a friend IRL called Kit, who also happens to use they/them pronouns.

Can’t believe we got tyrannosaur-skin handbags before GTA VI.

Mandela effect. I could have sworn it was a Polish company. Corrected now!

• Tea
  • 🇳🇱 PG Tips is popular here in the UK.
  • 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Ringtons (a personal favourite) is popular in and around Newcastle, where the company is based.
  • 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Yorkshire Tea (also exceedingly popular in the north as well as the midlands) is owned by Betty’s & Taylors.
  • 🇬🇧 Tetley is a popular brand owned by 🇮🇳 Tata, though personally I can’t drink the stuff.
• Coffee
  • 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Black Sheep Coffee is a chain of coffee shops in the UK, but they also sell beans and grounds.
  • 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Pilgrims Coffee is a small roastery on Holy Island.
  • While their instant coffee is never great, supermarket own-brand beans and grounds are better than you would expect. 🇬🇧 Tesco and 🇬🇧 Waitrose both sell fairly nice coffee.
  • 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Pumphrey’s is another small coffee roaster, from Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. Many independent cafés and shops in the north-east sell their coffee, but I believe you have to buy beans and grounds directly.
• 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Red Box Coffee is based in Edinburgh and they sell tea and coffee, both of which are quite nice.

Linux Mint with either Cinnamon or Xfce.

Cinnamon is fancy, Xfce is light.

TIL Sir Paul McCartney is on Reddit.

Yeah, I’d really like to go back in time and tell Solderpunk to name it something else.

Fedigemini is already a thing, thanks to things like tootik; but what we really need is mesh networking that the government can’t fuck around with.

Reminds me of the “how tall was hitler” joke
