That's it.
I mean zz zb, they're interesting too I guess. But zt seems like something I should be using all the darned time.

And there's more!

This little #TidBit at the end of the article has me thinking that change might just be happening, that #SurveilanceCapitalism might get some push-back.

I've criticised #AlboMP, still do, but I do note this is happening on his watch.

"Meta, which owns Facebook, has also been fighting a case against the national privacy commissioner over the Cambridge Analytica scandal on jurisdictional grounds, arguing that it's not subject to Australian law."

So here's a #tidbit of information about me:

I've been using the same #Logitech Trackball since 1999.

The only drawbacks are that it's a PS/2 connector so I have to use an adapter, and it's kind of low dpi tracking, so I have to turn it up to maximum speed for a comfortable movement experience at 1080p.

I have a second one that I bought as a back-up. The second one is the same but it's USB, and they changed the name between them.

Well, that was a real rollercoaster of a video. From #YellowPaint in #gaming to the plague of the #nitpick and #tidbit #youtubers

Today's #tidbit of #history: on this day in the year 1066, Guillaume (duke of Normandie, France) directed a large fleet of French marines to invade England. He succeeds and gets crowned king of England on Christmas Day, 1066.

Normandie bears that name because Norsemen invaded it in the 8th century CE. Guillaume's kingship ended fighting off invasions by Danes. These 3 invasions majorly impacted the language of those regions, with English today featuring words and grammar from everywhere.

"Fun" etymological note:

Many Brits tease Americans for using "tidbit" over "titbit", as if it were due to some Puritanical censorship of "tit".

However, "tyd bit" / "tid bit" seems to pre-date "titbit".

"Tyd" or "tid" meant "tender", so a "tyd bit" typically meant a small, tender morsel.

Both are valid, but neither is a sign of censored or vulgarised language: just linguistic shift in British English.

Game 31: Tidbit Ski (1993), by Matthew Fecher.

Play as a happy soda can doing what he loves the most: going down an endless slalom slope.

Slide to the left, then *swoosh* go right and then *woosh* go left again!

Feeling lonely after a while? Play together with a friend with the added danger of colliding with each other.
