@dutypo Morgen

@oheso @MamaLake Auld Lang Syne is played to signal Store Closing in Japan - that is amazing and unexpected new information to me. I am very pleased to know this - thanks for sharing it.

It is Monday. And so it goes. Glædelig mandag. Here's a postcard from #Aarhus, just to say that I hope this week treats you kindly.

@pete Great photo. The light! And the wind, I can almost see it.

@thibaut Stunning

@Gogs @Nickiquote What was the owl doing at a council meeting in the first place, is what I'd like to know.

@syrovy @Nickiquote Perhaps! One never knows.

@NellytheWillow @EregLoch @Nickiquote Ah, ok. I didn't know that reference, so had no context, so was lost.

@antoinnesterk @Nickiquote

@munin Agreed! And good on Mayo County Council for making a decision based on the merits and facts. Local authorities always should, of course, but generative AI data centre facilities seem to have made even sensible politicians and public officials lose their faculties.

@EregLoch I amn't sure what you mean. If you are asking about the phrase: it is a satirical phrase from Private Eye magazine that has become a phrase in general culture when pretending to allude to dark secrets and conspiracies being hidden from ius.

@Nickiquote

@Nickiquote I think we should be told

"A West of Ireland data center objected to by novelist Sally Rooney had its planning permission overturned on the grounds that it breaches Irish national climate policy.

Rooney lodged an objection in January, writing to Mayo County Council that permission for the centre would increase carbon emissions, cause risk of blackouts, and that “climate change represents an immediate & unprecedented threat to our way of life in Mayo and the future of human life round the world.”

@afewbugs This is such a good observation that I may have gasped aloud in realisation when I read it. Same as I did a few years ago when someone made the observation that men who say 'women aren't funny' are men who mean 'women don't laugh at things I say that I think are funny'.

@horsewizard @hollie

@timtfj Indeed @Janet_52square @dheadshot @afewbugs

@timtfj Would definitely be a lot of effort just to choose the music

@Janet_52square @dheadshot @afewbugs

@amiserabilist Ha - nice. The Alt Text too.

@BenCotterill @HowardGees

@rstub Yes, me too. That's what was I imagining. Not a 'screensaver' style graphic with any kind of movement, but a good old-fashioned static test card.

@Janet_52square Instance anthems - great idea.
