I'm going on a little expedition at the end of the week, and would like to listen to a 10 hour (or so) serialised podcast series. Any recommendations?

I like the BBC serialised stories (Missing Cryptoqueen, Lazarus Heist, Very British Cult,13 Minutes to the Moon) etc…, but open to other interesting things!

The Welsh way of doing numbers is even more bonkers than French and Danish.

"The thirty first" is "Yr unfed ar ddeg ar hugain", meaning "The first and ten and twenty".

"The eighteenth" is "Yr Deunawfed" (The two-nineth).

"The nineteenth" is "Yr pedwar ar bymtheg" (four and fifteenth).

This is such a bullshit anti-pattern.

It's a ducking keyboard app. And it keeps popping up until I pick one. Guilting me into clicking "Yes".

For a while I have stored my backups in S3. It's around 3 TB of data.

I'm looking forwards to a secondary service for a second back up.

Don't need fancy or GUI stuff, just the ability to upload from Linux CLI and/or API, with preferably a sync tool (think "aws s3 sync"), and an online tool to watch what's in it.

Any suggestions for places that aren't mega dodgy or do any kind of tracking? EU preferred too.

You know what's worse than building HTML server-side with only PHP code and no template engine? Having to do it in C. 😕

Fun, now I have "security researchers" reporting PHP version disclosures due to a public phpinfo()...

In an attachment to the ML, from 2006, as a static HTML page.

Being jealous of all y'all north Americans having an eclipse to watch today.

Best recommendation I can give: don't bother to try to photograph it. They'll be shit, and you'll be missing a spectacular event. Live the experience and marvel at professional's photos later.
