Nobody asked for this, but here’s a fun little thing for you on a random Tuesday: your omg.lol address now comes with finger support.
Have fun!

This is my -plan file. Whee! I'll put more here when I have time, later. If you want your own plan file, just log into omg. lol and make a new pastebin entry called ".plan". Learn more about the finger protocol here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finger_(protocol)

@binarydigit@social.lol@prami Fun! How do we finger ourselves?
@binarydigit I’m at a point where I can’t remember what does and doesn’t come with macOS, but if finger is no longer a built-in thing you can grab a client with Homebrew (https://brew.sh, brew install finger). I’ll write up a thing about this soon!

@prami @binarydigit That’s an impressively professional response. 
@heygarrett @prami RIGHT? Pffft
@prami Finger comes with macOS and funny story had a Swift bug in the macOS beta last summer. :)
