"That was my dad. People used to call his number by mistake so he kept a timetable by the phone. He passed away last year." "I'm so sorry. He was a lovely man." "Thank you. Let me see if I can find the timetable." "It's ok, Robert & I will just try our luck. Thank you." 11/12Hisham Ziauddeen (@HZiauddeen)Fri, 31 Dec 2021 23:06 GMT

When I lived in Merthyr, our phone number was similar to that of Merthyr railway station. My dad used to keep a copy of the timetable next to the phone as we had a number of people inadvertently ringing our number. As most used phone boxes, he didn't want them to lose money.Dave Jones π (@davedhjones)Mon, 27 Dec 2021 11:37 GMT
Sept 1990 "Hi Martin, when's the next Birmingham train?" "In 30 minutes if you can make it. Things going well with you and Sam?" "Yeah, brilliant. Last trip before we go off to Uni, Sam to Bristol, me to Cardiff. Won't be troubling you for a while." "You're no trouble Tom." 5/12Hisham Ziauddeen (@HZiauddeen)Fri, 31 Dec 2021 23:06 GMT
July 1990 "Hello, are there any trains to Birmingham tonight?" "Last one's at 8:00 but you'll have 2 changes." "That's no problem, thanks so much!" "It's Sam's young man isn't it?" "Oh, was it you I spoke to last time? Sorry, I was a bit excited." "Sounds like it went well." 2/12Hisham Ziauddeen (@HZiauddeen)Fri, 31 Dec 2021 23:06 GMT
π§΅ A New Year's Eve tale: June 1990 "Hello, could you tell me when the next train to Birmingham is?" "One moment, ah yes, it's at 1:40." "Brilliant!"

August 1990 "Hello Martin. It's Tom. Strange how I always I get you." "Just coincidence. The Birmingham train again?" "Uhm, yes please. You probably think I'm some sort of lovesick fool." "I remember that feeling. The breathless thrill of possibility. 3:30 Tom." "Cheers." 4/12Hisham Ziauddeen (@HZiauddeen)Fri, 31 Dec 2021 23:06 GMT

Implementors use the terms interchangeably unless they are making distinctions. Even at a TLS working group meeting, no-one will care if you say SSL. Also it's basically always SSL certs, no-one says TLS certs. TLS "Well actually"ing is just idiotic gatekeeping.

The thing that scares me about renewing domains for that long is that I am certain I will forgotten how to renew them in nine years time - at least anually keeps them fresh in mind!

The best thing I did for myself last year was no longer "hate-follow" or "check in" on people I found toxic. Trust me, it's hard!! You want to keep a tab on ur "enemies" π it's a natural impulse. Especially when you're spite driven like me.

I'm not interested in 2021 accomplishments: Let me know how you need care. Tell me the ways your heart fell & still beats. Share how naps exhilarated you. Praise on how you said No & felt it in your marrow. Rejoice texts you left unread. How you slept in. Love, how did you rest?

I'm absolutely certain that more Republican cis male politicians have been charged with sex crimes in public than the whole of trans and non-binary people, but thanks for playing.
