My Amiga 500 is from 1987.
But I think the stereo & LP player in the living room is from the early 70s.

Peewees is referred to kids in amateur sports between 12-13 years of age

that's probably the missing piece of information for most ^^'

So, when someone asks if you are free the next two weekends, you assume they're talking about the next Saturday (tail weekend) and the next Sunday (front weekend)?

Entirely depends on where you live.
In Germany, generally tap water is food safe, whether cold or hot.

But I also hear in Britain it's often a seperate tap, as the hot water used to come from a local storage cistern where it could be contaminated.

Germany, mid 30s, all the cars I've owned were manual so I would say - yes :D

First time I drove a rental automatic I did an accidental hard stop at about every second crossroads as I intended to hit the clutch with my left foot and lacking one just hammered the breaks instead >.>

When driving combustion I prefer manual but I've recently driven some EV, I could get used to that feel :)

Thunderbird - a bit slouchy at times but featurewise I'm very happy with it :)

~~No, since I can't sensibly use Reddit on my phone.~~
I misread - yes, I use Lemmy somewhat less now than I used to use Reddit. Which is probably a good thing^^

No one claimed it is, when used as an adjective :)

Which was closed, of course. It’s a political shitshow right now. Amsterdam municipality already runs its own Mastodon, and this fuckup will probably have consequences in moving official broadcast channels off Twitter.

Germanys gov runs its own Mastodon instances - social.bund.de - where the cabinet, the ministries, state institutes etc have their official accounts.
Some non-political examples are: The German Weather Service, the German Aerospace Institute, and the Consumer Protection Agency.

Unicode-Emojis sehen leider auf vielen Browsern/Apps/OS anders aus, da bevorzuge ich auf Plattformen wie diesem (oder zuvor Reddit) doch eher "old school" Emotes:
