favourite software jank I've experienced this week is Microsoft Teams showing emoji tooltips in the display language of the person who sent them, not the person who's reading them

What if FFXIV was demaked into a pixel art game? I think it'd play a little like Live a Live!

Hello! I've been in Australia, which doesn't have cohost yet probably. But now I'm in London again! Here are things about Australia that I forget about whenever I'm not there:

• There's a bunch of personalised numberplates all over. The good ones we saw this time were OUTLAWZ, KANGROO and BURGER
• The fruit! is so! delicious!
• God, the skies are just sickeningly good
• In Adelaide, half the coffee shops and restaurants don't have a toilet. Instead they have a room-escape-style key or a code or a set of instructions, and you have to go into the closed university building next door or the office block next to that, or you head out a door in the back of the restaurant and then you're in an alleyway and somehow it's night even though it was daytime a minute ago, and then at the other end of the alleyway there's a bathroom door hanging open and a fluorescent light that flickers and beckons, and taped to the brick wall of the ever-longer alleyway there are three A4 signs in subtly different typefaces reading TOILET -> -> -> to reassure you (they do not reassure you)
• There's a really excessive number of extremely detailed signs in general, see top seven below

Good, clear, makes it obvious that there have been some Incidents.

Clear, brief, shows extreme restraint around not unduly foregrounding the whole carnivorous snail situation

Classic beach sign, love 'em, I like how with this one they've kept adding more information and details, a new sign with new stuff they've remembered you're not allowed to do, another new sign with more info on the time-share? arrangement? with dogs???

And another, but with an unexpected twist! You don't normally get a double-header of snakes and bees on the same sign.

Who made this sign? Why is it stuck to a public toilet in a playground? Is it a threat? Ask not for whom the sign signs

My perpetual near-favourite, a delight every single visit. Has there ever been a better single sentence than "DO NOT THROW ANYTHING AT MAGPIE-LARK; IT MAY ATTACK MORE VIGOROUSLY"? The semi-colon, the choice of adverb, the absolute acceptance of the nature of the magpie-lark. A glory.

A new classic. The extreme specificity is where it shines. The reasoning. The details. The context. The desire that we the readers aren't just informed about the chip limit; that instead we understand. The line "WE ARE UNSURE OF WHEN THINGS WILL GET BACK TO NORMAL". Yes.
