poll: how long after walking into friend or someone’s home is it acceptable to ask for their WIFI password? [ ] Immediately [ ] Never

Attached: 1 image #TheDress viral photo will be 10 years old next month. And to me it still looks like a #WhiteAndGold dress and not #BlueAndBlack. I can’t adjust my perception to make it look blue and black unlike with other reversible optical illusions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_dress
I only see it as black-blue. Can’t perceive it as white-gold.

Hear me out: an ActivityPub-based dating app. Can integrate with every other fediverse apps. (I'm kidding obviously, but can you imagine?)

How about “Share with context” to be copied to the clipboard and ready to be pasted in another app. The context will have some sort of text (maybe from the original post and hashtags?), the original poster’s full fediverse address, and the URL.
...sent these off to a new home. ;-) In theory, this is just 35 kilos. But a balikbayan box full of books felt heavier than a wardrobe. Must be all the ideas and worlds contained within.

Manuel Roxas (and other displaced presidents and historical figures) would like to say a word.
Kairita na yung National Bookstore ngayon, wala nang price tags yung mga product. Kailangan mo pa i-download yung app nila para ma-scan yung mga barcode para lang malaman kung magkano.
