@cstanhope
I did see this also on HN earlier today at work. Cool to see the actual ppl on fedi now though :-)

@q3k @redford @mrtick

@clacke We've all been there bud.
In that sense, the Edit function in fedi is superior to emails.

@clacke I did! :-)
There's still one downstairs in an A3000 actually.

@clacke Kiki in my dreams :-)
I was an amiga distributor back in the day.

@clacke
How?

@clacke Yeah, been to greenland :-)

@clacke I'm old - can you guess? It had to do with flying... :-)

@clacke
7 unmissable hot air balloon rides

includes from Nunavut Baffin Island to Greenland
https://www.booking.com/articles/seven-unmissable-hot-air-balloon-rides.html who knew? :-)

@clacke Parts of my province and the one next door had snow last week. I've had frost.
Warning about icy hwy on the radio as I was driving home a bit earlier tonight.
Seems normal for here anyhow. Stockholm is 6d further north than me - I would have thought colder sooner really. TIL...

@clacke I thought .se had auto-filing - or is it b/c you are abroad?

@clacke
Weird!
Mind you, we get so used to our home surroundings.
A few years ago I was astounded to learn that there are places in the world where there are not litter fees on things like pop bottles or beer cans - any beverage container. Such refundable deposits have been in force where I live for over 50 years by now.

@clacke Wow, hk too. This is another one of those moments for me.

@mpjgregoire
Yes, beer, wine, spirits, milk...

@clacke Wait, what‽
(guy who wakes in the middle of the night, drinks extra strong instant coffee and goes back to bed...)

@clacke People have not been thinking through things for a long time...

@clacke My province of British Columbia decided to eliminate it, but hasn't enacted the law yet. So stupid.
Parts of my province don't do DST - the town of Creston never changes their clocks and, in the north east, Fort Nelson, Dawson Creek and Fort St. John don't use DST either. What a mess. The province of Saskatchewan doesn't use it and the Yukon territory doesn't either.
Meanwhile, here on fedi, our friends in europe change back from DST a week earlier than we @lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net

@clacke and yet, the uk does use dst... :-(

@clacke Does hk have silly savings time? That's coming soon to jar the circadians too.

@atomicpoet Brands are just as free as anyone to have their own instances and maybe they can convince their 'fans' to follow them.
I'll bet e.g. apple could do it and find followers easily enough.
Lots of fan bois for various things around. And then the brand absolutely controls the channel.

@Karlitschek Peertube for the win! :-)
