Mastodon: @confusedbunny
Yes, my Mastodon username mentions bunnies, yet the bunny avatar is on this profile, and the Lemming which might indicate Lemmy (this is Kbin, but I am subbed to Lemmy communities) is over there. Don’t question.

Lemmy: @i_am_not_a_robot
I realised some time back that my first name backwards made me sound like a knight. I’ve failed to utilise this in usernames except maybe once.
Chaos is a brilliant multiplayer turn-based strategy game.
Lemmings is the perfect puzzle game (also shameless plug for !lemmings)
…which I see now are local links with /c/ so not the issue we’re discussing here!
The ones in !trendingcommunities
Most links have been working fine for me recently, although I still occasionally see this error. However, it appears that links to kbin magazines don’t work at all. I suspect Connect is searching for server/c/community and not retrying with server/m/community when it gets an error back.
I think Kbin converted it to a full link! Should have created this thread with Lemmy really (btw, Chris/floppy in this thread is also me)
Is the pilot a cat?
I was sent this fruit cake as a thank you for some software I wrote, back in the 2000s. It’s from a famous fruit cake place in USA (I forget where now) and was delicious.

All my links appear to have been rewritten there - if you need to copy/paste try these:

Everything.
A stupidly cheap (£2?) fleece I bought off a sale rail on a whim, thinking I would never wear it.
I practically lived in that thing, and still use it today.
Debian Woody PPC. I also downloaded Yellow Dog but don’t remember ever installing or using it.
This was a great little game, I got it off a magazine covertape (I thought SU but spectrumcomputing suggests it was probably Crash). I didn’t necessarily think it was innovative then, but the race mode was fun and I remember changing the UI colours. In fact, I don’t remember there being a non-race mode, so obviously didn’t go into that bit of the game much!
I use a Competition Pro USB. I also have an 8bitdo if more buttons are required. Keyboard is always a favourite though!
I think the key is “not much margin” - they just aren’t making enough profit and presumably don’t want to put the price up.
😂 The signs make no sense either - one-way left turn only, temporary sign which says no left turn!
The dev does plan to open source it I believe.
