@cstross ah, ok that makes more sense and sounds much less junkety

@pndc RPG rule books on paper aren't light and the pile I have to sign probably weighs more than I do. It's cheaper to ship me around—and besides, they've got a warehouse and mail order fulfillment facilities there. Whereas I do not (and I'm up four flights of steps from ground level on a no-stopping main road.)

The "signing tour" is a one-stop trip to a rainy industrial estate outside Dublin to sign the RPG rule books people paid for as part of a kickstarter! (They'll be mailed out in due course.)
It's a trip away from home organized by a publisher and I'm signing books for customers, so in my headcanon it's a signing tour.
(Why are you looking at me funny?)
@cstross one of those is for me, so it'll be posted to Scotland afterwards.

@freiksenet I got a few of them circa 2008-2014, but nothing recently. (Laundry Files and Merchant Princes didn't need them by that point; also publisher marketing spend per author dropped significantly.) They still happen but they're expensive so they're only really a thing for guaranteed bestsellers.
Also, I'm not visiting the USA under MAGA rule. And nowhere else has the potential sales to justify one.

@kappazeta @thunderpussycat Non so come sei messo coi mezzi ma volendo puoi dare un occhio nella provincia di Varese. Tipo Brusimpiano, Lavena Ponte Tresa, Porto Ceresio…
Ovviamente dovresti avere a disposizione un’auto per spostarti fino a Luino

Cinque euro in più a pacchetto per finanziare prevenzione e sanità pubblica.
La campagna #5EuroControIlFumo propone una misura semplice: aumentare il prezzo delle sigarette per ridurre il consumo e sostenere il Servizio sanitario nazionale.
Una scelta che riguarda salute, costi sociali e responsabilità collettiva.

@pikesley fun fact, you can combine this with the «any machine is a smoke machine if you operate it wrong enough», doubly more so when considering that people cry when smoke gets in their eyes.

@evan To be clear, is 'it' in the above always the local browser as opposed to the server a.example (proxy-requesting on the unauthenticated user's behalf).

@eniko wait is this something you folks are designing or did somebody just made unofficial apparel?

@chillicampari @evan
That was my concern exactly (I voted "yes, but"):
e.g followers-only content shouldn't be public just because a follower's instance has access to it. In a perfect world this would have been end to end encrypted.

@evansky_arts Looks fun to me. The more abstract the more the creative juices flow.
