DuckDuckGo, Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT's web search, Ecosia, and Qwant all stopped working this morning because of Bing API. 😂 And they want Microsoft Copilot deeply integrated with Windows OS. Imagine someone is unable to book emergency medical appointments because Microsoft Copilot is down or you can't withdraw money or transfer funds through netbanking because AI and screenshot services are down. This is a good example of why we must not trust someone like Microsoft for anything serious.

If you are a homeowner and are insured by State Farm, Ohio Mutual, Pure Insurance, Westfield, and maybe Nationwide, you can get a FREE device to monitor your electrical system for arcing (one of the causes of house fires). h/t @w8emv

If you ever used advice from “the Mask Nerd” (aka Aaron Collins) to select a mask, it may be a nice time to give him a toot of thanks and well wishes. He’s on Mastodon, and evidently had a bike accident that landed him in hospital. And true to his good nature and sense of humor, he just tooted a photo in his hospital bed…wearing a mask, of course. Aaron has selflessly tested hundreds of masks and shared his test results with the public. He may be why I’m a NOVID. @masknerd

#Migrant workers face disproportionate risk, compared to general population. According to Amy Liebman, chief program officer Migrant Clinicians Network, these workers make up the bulk of the agricultural and food processing industries. They also are more likely to lack affordable access to health care, and may hesitate to report symptoms if it means not working.

KQED to lay off up to 25 employees amid budget shortfall

KQED, the Bay Area's biggest public broadcasting station, is expecting to lay off 18 to 25 employees this month, according to an internal email sent out to KQED staff from the station's president Michael Isip on Tuesday morning and obtained by Mission Local. In April, KQED offered buyout programs to workers, as a first step to address a budget shortfall. The NPR- and PBS-affiliated radio and TV station had a total revenue of $90.4 million and a total expenses of $100.9 million for fiscal year ending Sept.

I caught the start of a #rodent nest in my #Toyota #Tacoma engine bay. They were using the insulation from the underside of the plastic engine cover and stuffing it between the intake runners and the top of the engine.

What are people using as rodent deterrents these days?
