Just bought the flat I’ve been renting since 2020, time for me to enter my DIY era.
Sinking deeper into the flight simulation rabbit hole I did my first flight with rudder pedals just now. That’s going to take getting used to, and I landed super hard because I had my feet on the brakes when I touched down.
No, Flight Simulator, I did not “crash the plane into the water”. I landed it in the water slightly fast.
The NTSB merely want to know why I deployed the water rudder at 70mph, and that was entirely because I had no idea what I was doing.

@Tarah every time I’ve done this it would have been enough for me to hand over the phone to someone who sounds vaguely like a woman and have them say “yes, I’m X, he’s got my permission”.
I think it's time for a reread of "I am not your supplier"
>What it means is that there is no supply chain here. Because there is no supplier. I am not providing you something that you bought from me. There is no relationship. I put something online because I wanted to. The fact you made your product depend on it is your responsibility. Not mine. Not the one of the providers. We provide libraries. We do not supply them. You cannot apply rules to me.

I’d like to set up a website that authenticates users in such a way that a single person can’t (trivially) sign up more than once, but I don’t see any personal details beyond an anonymous ID. Absolute guarantees that that user hasn’t registered before aren’t needed, but there should be enough friction to put people off. Think Twitter accounts, not passports. I absolutely do not want to deal with email.
Is OIDC really the best option here?
Another day, another client site with separate networks on the same IP ranges.
It's actually kind of fucked that the concept of self-care is now being sold to us as "you deserve the right to spend money on consumable luxuries like bath bombs" rather than "capitalism is destroying us mind, body, and spirit and will always ravenously devour all time and space we have marked out for the maintenance of our own health and sanity"
AHHHH. Just sent the deposit and final legal fees for purchasing the flat I’ve been renting to my solicitors. I guess I’m committed now.
Ahh yes, that’s why I don’t really watch BBC News.
“Zombie knives, swords, and machetes are a growing problem. Our reporter is at a Border Force centre.” Followed by a report that has nothing to do with immigration or asylum seekers.
I’m tickled every time I go to put BBC News on an iPlayer asks if I want to watch from the start. Yes, please give me the news starting from November 1997, I missed a few episodes the first time round.
I’ve just been reminded Trustpilot exists, and am once again angry that there’s a widely used company whose entire business model is broadly a protection racket. Companies that pay them can dispute bad reviews, companies that don’t can’t.
QOTD from a YouTube video my son is watching: “A fully evolved Corbynite will be incredibly annoying to deal with”.

Dyson : ur not gonna believe this
I’m going to laugh so hard if the thing that persuades CEOs to take climate change seriously is atmospherics levels of CO2 starting to encroach on the levels that impact productivity.

Where do I report my local postman for cheating at wearing shorts in any weather, he’s got thermal trousers on underneath them.
I have just spent two days straight being sociable, if anyone needs me I’ll be hiding out avoiding any sort of human contact for the next week.
Come on folks. At least *try* to entice me into this article I had the tiniest shred of interest in to begin with.
