It makes me sad when I see the name because Kagi used to be a payments processor for shareware and essentially a predecessor to modern app stores…but before enshittification.

This isn’t just Denmark. And businesses often host events with them: https://humanlibrary.org/

They’re letting the franchises expire because buying the operators out would be very expensive. That said, if any go bust in the meantime they will be brought back earlier

When the real crime is that being a US KitKat the chocolate is awful.

I am very tempted by a Jolla phone. Years ago I had a Nokia N9, and apparently they’ve done a good job of keeping the platform alive. It does have a yearly subscription for the OS which is a bit strange, but if it means my phone would last 10 years not 5 then I can get behind that

Yes! And that’s amazingly similar to Harry (but also completely different) - Harry goes around the various offices on his swivel chair (backwards, because kicking off things is of course easier) and fires staples at malfunctioning robots

I bloody loved Harry The Handsome Executive. It was an Ambrosia Software shareware game from the 90s and was surprisingly underrated. Will probably run on Infinite Mac but it never got an OS X port or anything

I have an old iBook which it still runs great on

Even easier, if you can get to the seat without asking them to move, just start to sit in it and the bag will be moved
