been using my canon R8 camera for a little while now taking bullshit photos just to learn how it works and I gotta say, it's the best camera I've ever used - first canon camera I've ever used too (except for a few hours with the EOS 6D a decade ago)

wife has hired an EV for her parents visit next week, experience tells me she will be the one driving it. This might be the turning point in my quest to shift the family car to electric.

every time I mention Palestine in the DRW newsletter I get at least one (usually more) angry responses with a "why wont you stick to tech/privacy/security" vibe

surveillance and AI tech—fueled by data collection of Palestinians—are amplifying the genocide. Israel exports its tech around the world, 'battled-tested' on Palestinians. Israel has contracts with large data-extractive tech companies. these are privacy and security issues.

Got the Casio watch and it’s much smaller than I remember. Looks stupid on my fat wrist. Need a bigger watch!

@joeyjojo I wanted to love the F91W but yeah, looks small on me. Something cheap and in the 49mm x 44mm zone or bigger would be nice

@jono mailerlite is nice and basic, activecampaign has a good CRM component to it, mailchimp is very popular so lots of guides around the net to learn it & integrations that work with it
