  1. iPhone & Apple watch upgraded to iOS 26.5 & watchOS 26.5

    #iOS #watchOS

  2. Need to be careful what I order from my local takeaway, ordered tater tots with my burger, but there were enough there to feed a family

  3. Had a bit of a panic attack when I had a shower earlier. Wetting myself down and dipped my head to wet my hair when I realised I'd forgotten to take my hearing aids out.

    Quickly jumped out of the shower (as best I could) and dried them. They were only under the water for less than a second and I'd be lost without them.

    Luckily they seem to have survived.

  4. I'm not a betting man, but for tomorrow's Grand National, I'm going to have a virtual punt on Three Card Brag

  5. I rely on PIP, not just for the financial boost, but for the fact that it allows you to apply for a bus pass and blue badge. Shouldn't have been a suspended sentence in my opinion.

  6. Been looking at soundbars for my TV, or to put it another way, finding ways to waste my money

  7. If anyone saw my post about trying to drop in on my Amazon Fire TV, well I finally got it working, but the solution was totally (in my view) counter intuitive.

    Seems all I had to do was unmute the built in microphone using the switch on the bottom of the TV.

    Why it wouldn't allow a drop in with a muted microphone baffles me, but I guess why would you drop in with no audio?

    Anyway it's working now and I'm celebrating with a bottle of Bank's Amber bitter.

  8. Too lazy to even put a pizza in the oven...

  9. Any Amazon device experts here?

    I've got an Amazon Fire TV (**NOT** an Amazon Fire TV Stick). My understanding is that I can drop in to the TV and have a two way video conversation with someone who drops in.

    The TV knows it has a camera plugged in, but won't use it for drop ins.

    Any words of wisdom greatly appreciated.

  10. Been fiddling with #Sidekiq today to try and improve the performance of my Mastodon instance.

    Beginning to suspect #Postgresql is the weak link, but not sure what else I can do with that (I know about PGTune)

    #MastoAdmin #Mastodon

  11. Now that I've watched Star Trek: Picard, I'm going to start again on Lost In Space, there's one or two series I've not seen, but I'm not sure I can stomach watching the psychopath (a.k.a. Dr. Smith) again

    #StarTrek #LostInSpace

  12. Spent most of the afternoon tuning #Postgresql and bits of #Mastodon

    Looked at #PGBouncer, but I don't think I need it (yet)

  13. Had a takeaway delivered last night from a burger joint I'd not heard of previously.

    The burger & fries weren't as hot as they could have been, but this was probably due to the delivery guy (on a bicycle apparently) doing another drop before mine.

    My main conclusion, after trying a handful of different establishments, is that a burger is a burger is a burger.

    They all use 'smash patties', the extras (cheese etc.) is mostly the same. The real difference, weirdly, comes in the fries, how they're seasoned etc.

    My conclusion is that I should order from my local burger place (literally yards down the road) where I'll get roughly the same as all the other vendors, and due to it's proximity, it'll arrive hotter.

  14. Think I *may* have got Postfix / OpenDKIM / OpenDMARC playing well together

  15. WCA decision came through today and it's not what I'd hoped for. I've lost my 'limited capability for work' assessment, but I've spoken to my work coach and she's not going to push me into anything I think I won't be able to do.

    Just means more frequent phone calls from her to see how things are going.

  16. Well #Yodel are living up to their reputation. Literally right on my doorstep and claim they missed me (even though they didn't bother trying)

  17. Doing a happy dance!!

    I've just completed a flight in an Airbus A380 From Changi in Singapore to Sydney Australia

    A few things needed quick action to avoid problems, but managed a full ILS capture and smooth landing 😀

  19. Hi! I'm Danny! Your friendly neighborhood freaky boy.
    @admindan is my admin alter ego, but this account is for my regular self.
    I dream of a world where the sluts, sex workers, kinksters, fetishists, roleplayers, cosplayers, horror fans, dead dovers, genderfuckers, rebels, artists, smut peddlers, and various other creatures of the night always have a place to socialize and share and discuss their thoughts, feelings, lifestyle, work, art, etc freely.
    Advertise, collaborate, celebrate, joke, shitpost, vent, make friends, fuck it! make enemies, do whatever you want, the point is that you'll be allowed to speak about it openly.
    Personally, I'm a kinkster, fetishist, online sex worker, and practicing slut, among other things. My interests will become very clear in no time at all haha
    Full name is Danny Redwoods. Maybe best known as roachcreature on twitter, but also known elsewhere as Danny the Cryptid, roachcryptid, or even Elliott Peeps but that's a deep cut haha
    Talk to me abt kink, Cyberpunk 2077, Metronomy, horror, comedy, or Kate Bush! Or other stuff, that's cool too haha

  20. the syncing means that it uses (I think) a different distribution protocol than classic IPFS, but it's still content-addressable. (For instance it uses #blake3 hashing so you can incrementally check the integrity of big files) github.com/n0-computer/iroh

  21. This one has kind of an insane deadline (June 10) -- but if you're interesting in exploring how to contribute to open source software, are interested in #libp2p #ipfs etc, and want a little money on the side, applications are open for the first Protocol Labs Dev Guild!

    This is "cohort 0" so I suspect it will be a bit bumpy. I'm going to apply myself, but if you don't mind being a guinea-pig along with me, here's the link: ecosystem-wg.notion.site/PL-De

  22. Hey, have you done something cool, and open source/for the public good on using #libp2p in the last year ? Then you can apply to get retroactively rewarded for your 2023/2024 citizenshipness in this LibP2P retroactive public good funding run. US$125K is being given out blog.libp2p.io/2024-04-08-libp . Retoot at will!

  23. Are there any ModSecurity experts here?

    I've been trying to whitelist a bunch of subnets for a while now. I've found several different variants of the rule online.

    This is the latest version I've placed in REQUEST-900-EXCLUSION-RULES-BEFORE-CRS.conf, but none of the other variants I've found work either.

    SecRule REMOTE_ADDR "@ipMatch 192.175.111.224/27,70.38.27.240/28,184.107.184.0/26" "id:1000,phase:1,log,allow"

  24. Seems my spelling of the word 'canular' was wrong, should have been cannula or canula

  25. I heard someone in the town today say we're going to get another wave from storm #isha tonight

    It hasn't happened

  26. #MSFS2020 unusable at the weekend, stuck on 'checking for updates'

    I suspect it's because #MSFS2024 is now mainstream and is a 100% online experience.

    Coupled to that I suspect both versions connect to the same servers and that because #FS2024 needs so much bandwidth it's blocking out MSFS2020

    #FlightSimulator

  27. Puzzling through a server problem I had and realising the solution would be @fission 's #IPVM -- looking forward to its roll out! fission.codes/blog/ipvm-comput

  31. #3GoodThings

    1) Lots of good feedback from my writing group last night

    2) #Pizza & #wine for dinner later

    3) Sim update 1 for #MSFS2024 is finally released

  32. I've started streaming stuff while working at my desk. I'm currently working my way through . I'm really enjoying Cory Doctorow's keynote. Worth a watch if you haven't seen it already. archive.org/details/hopeconf20

  33. Had our #Christmas leftovers today and tried a fancy sauce, "Pomegranate Bordelaise". #vegan "juicy marbles" joint, cut into fillets and roasted :) #chefsKiss #yum #juicyMarbles

  34. Just tried the cafe in our newly revamped Granville Theatre

    Asked for a latte and the girl said she'd bring it to my table. When it arrived it was in a mug-like thing with NO handle??!! Not sure how the girl got it to my table, but (for me at least) it was too hot to pick up

    Apparently I should have asked for something with a handle, but that's the first cafe in my life I've been to that serves hot drinks in mugs without handles
