Sleep is proving to be a fickle friend. I am exhausted yet it's 3am and I am feeling wired. Insomnia is doing not helpful when I really need to sleep.

christine,

@timClicks Maybe it's not insomnia, you might must be experiencing biphasic sleep 😴 😴 https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20220107-the-lost-medieval-habit-of-biphasic-sleep

Anyone else think this is odd, to turn on security key #2fa in #proton mail you have to have the 2FA enabled already with an authentication app? Why can't I just enable the hardware key...

Ready to "watch" the super bowl. I'm just here for the snacks 😄

I like to think I am not addicted to coffee, but yesterday we ran out. That quick splash of reality made me realize that I really, really need my coffee in the morning. Tea just did not cut it 😣

Forget manspreading, I want to orangecatspread. I want to take up space annnd then spread out just a tiny bit more, but be super cute while doing it.

Do you know what's hard to admit to as a person who loves reading? I have books I don't finish 🫣 I used not to keep track of them, I think because I was a bit ashamed that I didn't finish what I started. As I get older, I realize some things are truly not worth my time if I'm not enjoying them or feeling like I'm getting out of it what I want.

What's on your DNF (Did Not Finish) list?

For my hackathon project I did try to make CFA (Cat Factor Authentication, using your cat's microchip as a second factor) a thing 😆 The project did win a prize, but more for the experimentation then the actual result https://wpengine.com/blog/hackathon-december-2023/

christine,

@hyc Of course they would! CFA is all about security through obscurity. I never set out to prove CFA as a good option, just as a option that made you wonder who would come up with that 😂

christine,

@accretionist that is definitely a vulnerability in CFA, but it has the benefit of being cute. Like super cute. And don't you want your security to have a high cuteness factor?

Hit my goal for the year! Might even be able to finish up Bad Feminist to add one more on my 2023 total. Used for logging all my books for the 3rd year in a row, and it is such a better app for me than goodreads.

There's a conversation going around social media about being a couple and sleeping in separate rooms or homes (which absolutely, do whatever the hell works for you) but another less extreme / more affordable option I would recommend is having separate duvets, I think it's normal in some (maybe Nordic) countries? It is luxurious esp if there is a size disparity between you and your partner 👍🏻

christine,

@sue That is brilliant! Next time I need to grab a new comforter I will go for 2 twins instead of 1 king.

Well my year end music recap just reminded me how much I use my music service to listen to white noise 😂 My most listened to song is "Brown Noise with Deep Bass". Which to be fair, is my go to for concentrating.

Ok back on this, and have I made progress? Nope! Now I am discovering the joy of OpenSSL 3 with an older ruby version (3.0.6). So having lost count, I am going to say step -12 right now

If you don't auto-fill my email address into your unsubscribe page when I click it, I am 50% more likely to just mark your email as spam and block it. If you make me have to do a survey first before unsubscribing me, I am 100% marking you as spam.

Make it easy to unsubscribe from your marketing emails, and this could be one way of improving email deliverability 🤔
