I think I figured out the "CoSo randomly playing audio, even in Ostrich mode" - it's Ostrich mode. Apparently on Safari (macOS 13.3.1) with Ostrich mode *ON*, it autoplays CoSoCom, twice. And because CoSoCom isn't showing, I can't click the stop button.

With Ostrich mode *OFF*, it autoplays once, and clicking the "Stop" button stops it.

@sghamel @XaoslordErie No, really, CoSo is not a place that is accepting of cryptobro crap spam. How about instead of telling other people to "keep it to yourself", you follow that advice?

Or you can adjust your status privacy so that you aren't posting crypto spam to the community firehose for all to see, but only people who choose to follow/search.

I just assisted six teenagers in filing their taxes.

And currently have nine teenagers staying at the house. I'm assuming one of the other three will ask for tax help, too.

My stress level is inversely proportional to the numbers of teenagers in the house.

@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN It was I18 for me. I was just expecting Alito.

@opie *sigh* I hope my kids finish Last of Us soon, so I can cancel it.

@status @th3j35t3r Hey, look, a gold star! I haven’t gotten one of those since grade school.

@th3j35t3r He doesn't look like Putin...

@Sekhapada Vodka is a clear liquid…...

@OracleSpirit Had a reply typed out, then noticed you specified 30 years.

Had to delete everything I typed.

Yeah, nothing in the last 30. Maybe even 40.

@ayankdownunder From the thumbnail, I thought it was going to be a rabbit.

@JailTheTrumps I'm preparing for even more hate/virtriol/legislation-attempts. I'm glad my trans family live in "safe" states; at least I don't have to worry about lawmakers making their lives hard - just ignoramuses.

@Indefinite_Article I haven't dealt with a voice mail at work since 2019.

@JohnnyGenX I mean, what are they going to do - send their kids to private Christian schools? Those are totally immune from…. Wait, a news update is just reaching me…

Never mind.

@Former5SportOfficial It wouldn't be if she wasn't blocking the vent!

Someone is both adorable and blocking the heat vent. #CatsOfCoSo

Somebody was begging for attention earlier. #CatsOfCoSo

Bought a used Nokia N90 off eBay (have been lusting over that phone since it was actually new, finally found one cheap.)

It's named "Jeff's other phone", and has a bunch of (not my kink) fetish porn on it. LOL!

Looking up how to wipe (both electronically and physically) the phone.
