@penguin42 I'm surprised at the level of voting for the Greens. A Reform voter tells me it's due to the Green Party's Gaza and Foreign Policy, and yes, the rise in Muslim voters. #LeSigh

If there's one thing I cannot stand, it's someone who thinks they are clever when, in fact, my dog has more intelligence than they do.

If you're going to attempt a cunning plan, make sure the person you're trying to get one over on doesn't have the nous to speak to the person your whole subdifuge depends on. There's nothing worse than when two stories don't match!

What a performance ordering something off Fakebook. #LeSigh

Got past one chapter I was having a hard time with. Now stuck on the next chapter. #lesigh

@Microplastics101 The tricky part is getting rid of stuff without giving it away. The white scooter was given to me from the estate of a 95yo lady who passed away but I had to put a set of batteries in it, so I have a few 100 in it. #lesigh

Right, yet another opportunity to say I'm a miserable git. #LeSigh

I sent an email with two URLs. The URLs wre deliberatly seperated by a paragraph of text so it was clear there was two URLs. The basic question I was asking was which one was the right URL. I had this response back:

LLM : the new PHP Hammer. In regards to using LLMs to run devops commands on server fleets (Ubuntu news). This is a terrible idea. The tool exists already, Saltstack or Ansible (if you must). Define a strict expected state, reapply it routinely to verify it or alert when it wasn't. It should be Idempotent. Not probabilistic, guard rails or not. I know the folks involved are all smarter than I, but this seems like a misstep #ubuntu #leSigh

So, my 30 GB Fedora Silverblue VM is now crying its eyes out because /var is full. Increasing the disk size doesn't immediately fix it. I'll need to move the third partition, then increase the size of the second partition that /var sits on.

What a faff. 😞

Conclusion to last nights fiasco: in some situations NPM stops printing error messages so you cannot 'untaqngle its underwear'. #leSigh
Its a shame its not big enough to dress itself.

One of the downsides of algorithms is that platforms continue to show you stuff from people you used to work with. Not that I'm overly bothered, but it is depressing to see some individuals haven't learned a thing and continue in the behaviour that made them leave in the first place.

Hands up all those who have someone in their organisation who keeps trying to do a completely different job from the one they were employed to do.

When i was in Phoenix over the weekend, i saw a Doordash robot in the bike lane and i REALLY wanted to run it over.

Like, REALLY wanted to run it over. #leSigh

@emlove

You can bitch and moan all you like, nobody is going to do anything for fear of being called an Anti-semite. And the problem is, the more everyone turns a blind eye, the worse the atrocities will increase.

Have we learned nothing from standing by and doing nothing?

The lead for the throttle control pot wiper was broken. When the scooter was assembled about 20 years ago, the trained monkey installing the wiring harness looped the cable under the frame, most likely because the connectors had already been fitted to the harness before the harness was fitted to the scooter chassis... and the connectors wouldn't allow the harness to be installed properly. The harness got dragged on something. Connectors had to be fitted -after- the harness was fitted. #lesigh

#leSigh. My browser debug tools render the 3bar trigram as a 2bar trigram.
it does look correct as "normal view" screen, but you really shouldn't do that.

@nurkiewicz
Right, I now see why/ how some jobs posted in LI are from the completely wrong company...
(I inferred a recruiter is doing both jobs, but didn't shift login, so the post has wrong source/ account).
Your observation implies the recruiter would be completely doing professional practice.
#leSigh

Sent one of the technicians out, and now they're caught up in a protest at the local drone building company.

I have been ever so supportive, contacted the police chief on the ground, and told him our guy is a complete bastard. 🤣

For the pedants: I made that bit up about the police chief. #LeSigh

#TIL ""git stash save -a MESG" doesn't work that same as ""git commit -a -m MESG" ~ the --all section. #leSigh

@violenteastcoastcity mmm. We are in a rural/regional area of Australia. 30 mins drive away from the last big suburb of Sydney. However, it may as well be Mars to tradies. They don't want to come here because there's no fast food joints within 20 mins. drive, so there's no place they can envision having lunch. So we can't even get them to come out to quote, let alone do a job. We CAN get the local pissed idiots who take on enough work to buy their next carton of beer. #lesigh

I can setup an eslint for css (Yay wishlist item), but to do so means i need to use absolutely newest node.
Some of my other code in this project is written in Clang, and doesn't et re-linked to a newer Node release every 10min, as "that guy" asks for 6-8h sleep or something.

Therefore I need to have "node for eslint", and "node for build time", #leSigh

Watching a lot of AI-related posts. There's going to be a lot of people left behind. #LeSigh

So what's the matter with LibreOffice or OpenOffice?

Mind you, I can add it to my French hashtags. #LeSigh

Great. That's the second post I've deleted before sending because, you know, thoughts and opinions outside the herd can get you into trouble.

I bought a box of teabags (wrapped separately to keep aromatics in), its taken me until the last one to work out the best way to open them. #leSigh.

The plastic is weak cohesion left-right, but strong up-down, so a vertical rip works best

I wanted a pair of sneakers from JD Sports. I tried to buy online, but PayPal wouldn't work, so I went to the store near my office.

Sentence "I can't vote for him, because he has #dreadlocks" tells me more about the state of #politics in my country than anything else. #LeSigh 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️🤦

#MyMother “Awww I’m going to miss you so much!”
(My parents have been staying at my place for 1.5 month now, and are leaving in two days.)

#AlsoMyMother less than an hour after “Gah, you’re impossible! you misunderstand everything I say!” and then suddenly proceeds to ignoring me while she pouts.

So I've upset just about everyone in the office this morning:

"Was you rude?" 𝑵𝑶𝑷𝑬
"Was you miserable?" 𝑵𝑶𝑷𝑬
"Was you aggressive?" 𝑵𝑶𝑷𝑬
"Was you disrespectful?" 𝑵𝑶𝑷𝑬

"What the hell did you do then!?"
