@Harkaway They’re unplugging UK Twitter from the EU connection. From midnight you won’t be able to use accented characters or smiling emoji.
@ahnlak It’d still need managing! Happy to pay someone else for keeping it all working plus a nice web interface.
@ahnlak (I considered putting the repos on my own server, but as my own server is managed by chef, and the chef stuff is in a git repo…)
@ahnlak …whereas GitHub clearly aren’t going anywhere, and $7/month seems reasonable for unlimited private repositories.
@ahnlak I considered Bitbucket, but moving to someone else’s free plan because my current plan suddenly became un-free seemed fate-tempting!
@ahnlak Nothing Bad, but Fog Creek are starting to charge $20/m for the previously-free Kiln tier. Too pricey for moi. Heading Githubwards.
@Hello_Tailor @AlasdairStuart @deftly_admiral Corbyn: “Hang on lads, I’ve got a great idea…”
When you move all your git repos to a different provider so the latest commit message on everything is, “Dunno. But it might be important.”
@JannerTM You’re too kind. No. Really.
@ovationchris I’ll get back to you on that once I’ve cleared it with the Hotwells Mayor.

@benjohnbarnes That sorts out “ducking”, but I’m not sure my aunt will be pleased.
@FelicityMorse It has other effects. For example, when I think about paying £299 for a hair dryer my mouth dries up and my scalp tightens.

@invalidname I thought most mobile phones were bigger than Kindles and laptops these days? :D
