I’d like to have words with whoever thought YAML was a reasonable programming language. This thought brought to you by a generated password containing a colon causing my Salt run to explode due to a YAML parse error.
Turns out autopilot approaches don’t work at some airports in Flight Sim 2020. That would have been fine if not for the thick rain clouds between me and the airport, I took several attempts at it, then diverted to an airport where I could see the ground.
I’d be annoyed by it but that was some of the tensest Flight Sim I’ve done and fantastic fun dealing with it.
You ever seen something so painfully out of touch and oblivious it hurts?
If any of you Linux users out there are getting bored, you may want to try one of the BSDs. BSD of course stands for Berkeley Software Distribution and all the information you need on running BSD can be found in the Berkeley Distribution Software Manuals, or BDSM for short. So Google BDSM to get started.
The YouTube meta continues to baffle me as the boy watches a video of a person watching a video of a person watching a video.
This video has made my day, please enjoy: https://youtu.be/C4BGlbNKNRM?si=4ZPM4UXjAandpLTm
So far I’ve received seven separate emails and a phone call about my Curry’s order placed yesterday, fully expect a barrage insisting I review the product, the delivery driver, and Curry’s in general as well.
Shout out to the Curry’s warranty sales person who hung up the moment the words “no thanks” came out of my mouth. Neither of us wanted to be on that call, and you respected that.
Upgraded the CPU and GPU in my gaming computer so now I’m not going to need to turn the heating on this winter.
“Sign in to confirm you’re not a bot”. Fuck you, buddy. I’m the human here, you’re a poorly trained model which can’t work out that I’m the same person I always am on this device.
I had a long list of plans for this evening. Instead I watched several hours of YouTube videos by a guy circumnavigating mainland Britain in a tiny speed boat. I regret nothing.

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.
From the makers of
"This meeting could have been an email"
We proudly present
"This app could have been a PDF"
@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.

Or in meme form
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.
