Indeed. #Shrinkflation is showing up everywhere.

I can't prove my lip balm has reduced contents as I didn't keep any old ones for comparison (but what used to last a month or more is now gone in 3 weeks, and my lip-chappedness has not increased!), but just last week I spotted it on the XL package of paper towel I routinely use.

CDMX-based early new wave/post-punk band Size with “El Diablo en el Cuerpo”(https://youtu.be/tAKYVnL2H-M?si=UUZu-GxJ42KkpjPj) They weren’t together for very long but their impact on Mexican music is very noticeable. This is from a 1991 self titled retrospective compilation of their work (https://tinyurl.com/5t2utzbd)

I wonder if Trump and friends realize that Greenland is smaller than the US.

I used to have the impression that Iceland is much bigger than the Netherlands.

@bagder Problem with that is (besides occasional bugfixes), most people including myself would see #curl to be functionally complete and anything "nice to have" would be considered not worth the balooning in #complexity and #size.

• I mean, does curl need to be able to do #BitTorrent (magnet:), #IPFS (ipfs://) or god forbid #blockchain (i.e. #EVM) support?

• Do you really want to integrate @torproject / #Tor support natively into curl when using #HTTP (localhost:8118) and #SOCKS5 (localhost:9050) #proxy allows for the same and doesn't necessitate having to handle and ingest Tor arguments as well??

In fact if #toybox didn't have a #wget implementation that I could use for OS/1337 I would've merely chosen tiny-curl -o as a global alias or if #tinycurl wasn't an option, curl -o instead.

• Maybe someone who wants to have said functionality like tor support built-in will go and IDK make i.e. #neocurl or sth. along those lines or build something like #ethcurl or #torcurlor #ipfscurl or whatever...

That being said I am glad curl isn't solely maintained by you but has other contributors (give them a shoutout!) but I also am glad you maintain that vital software that most "#TechIlliterate #Normies" most likely never heard of but propably use on a daily basis as part of all the #tech they use to #consume media with...

• I consider curl to be "the #vim of downloaders" (tho that's kinda insulting and limiting since curl is more than just a downloader and more intuitive than vim) with wget being "the #vi of downloaders" (tho wget is even simpler to use than vi)...

Either way, curl is awesome...

"The greatest moment in [Barack Obama's] speech wasn’t a quotable line but rather an exquisite and petty dick joke he unsubtly made with his hands to mock Trump’s obsession with crowd 'sizes.' …

I'm glad the Obamas finally let loose. The first Black family that ascended to the White House had to bite their tongue for nearly 16 years as the GOP and Donald Trump unleashed racist and Islamophobic dog whistles against them."

How to tell a dick joke without actually telling a dick joke.

#Trump #promotes #false #Harris #AI #crowd #size #conspiracy.

The Harris campaign flatly denied the allegation, maintaining that the photo in question was a real #picture of a 15,000-person #crowd #cheering for the #HarrisWalz #ticket in #Michigan.

Next we have the CDMX-based early new wave/post-punk band Size with “GoGo Girl”. They were only together for a few short years but their impact on Mexican music is pretty undeniable
