It's annoying when you get that firefighter instinct "this place is about to collapse" about a website and you're already so fucking busy.

I really don't have time to try to archive this site before it implodes, so I gotta try to ignore all the signs while hoping someone else archives it.

(note that I didn't mention which site I'm talking about: this is on purpose)

@DrGravitas @foone umm, archive.org ?

@jackemled @DrGravitas @foone umm https://webapps.stackexchange.com/a/115426. appears to be a simple two liner? Depending on number and rate limits, and some pauses or sleeps.

I just watched the last episode of PERSON OF INTEREST. Wow, I‘m still blown away. What a great show, I liked every episode.

@sebastianhahn the ensemble casts various relationships and side conversations was very Buffy too. Good mix of comedy and straight.

@Lassielmr @Geri his history of uturning on the environment and not condemning genocide. Where as with just multimillionaire Sunak for company, have much more in common

For those who aren’t aware, Microsoft have decided to bake essentially an infostealer into base Windows OS and enable by default.

From the Microsoft FAQ: “Note that Recall does not perform content moderation. It will not hide information such as passwords or financial account numbers."

Info is stored locally - but rather than something like Redline stealing your local browser password vault, now they can just steal the last 3 months of everything you’ve typed and viewed in one database.

@robert @GossiTheDog much better. Pick a mainstream distro(Ubuntu, Fedora) and GUI (KDE, GNOME) and will work on just about any popular hardware (dell,lenovo). Companies like @frameworkcomputer will even sell you very good, supported by them, hardest

the inverse of "make sure you have working backups of what's important" is "give yourself permission to delete digital detritus that no longer has any value to your life"

you do not need every email you've received for the last decade.

you do not need three copies of every photo you've ever taken with your phone.

you do not need the downloads folder for each of your previous twelve laptops.

you can delete some stuff.

@geniodiabolico @djsundog on Linux you could use /tmp as tmpfs, no need for cron

Hoping Ncuti Gatwa can display more than his usual two expressions tonight. The serious Masters Of The Air one and the open mouthed blank Doctor Who one. Steven Moffat should give him something better to get his teeth into than Snot Babies and Doctor Glee.

Good morning my mastodonian friends, it's Saturday!

Right, taking the youngest swimming in an hour, then I plan on using the rest of the day to build my Lego ECTO1.

No Letterboxd Friday from me as the recent activity includes film entries you've tinkered with. I've spent the last week getting my profile up to date with all my reviews.

Also, my blog received new reviews of Titan A.E., Rebel Moon: The Scargiver and Beowulf & Grendel. Perhaps something to accompany your morning coffee. 😊

@UKFilmNerd Lego is always the right choice

Apple Pencil Pro integration goodness.

  1. The shadow of the pencil on the screen isn’t an optical phenomenon; it’s digitally generated!

  2. You can expand the fan-shaped tool palette with a finger or the pencil.

I’m so effing tired

What states and the EU ought to do - facilitate cross border travel in a green way - they’re abjectly failing to do (see today’s SNCF (state owned railway) saga)

What they’re instead doing is racist passenger profiling and eroding (Bundespolizei controlling anyone with dark skin at Offenburg)

@jon I'm sure they have "specific intelligence" right?

I have a website that loads a random background image related to cities via the Unsplash API:

background-image: url(https://source.unsplash.com/random?city);

Today, this striking image appeared: the Judge Harry Pregerson Interchange (I-105 × I-110), a five-level interchange (the most complex in Los Angeles). Photo by David Ortega.
