Have run my own mail server for nearly 20 years. But haven't changed much about it's config for about 19 of those. Have just backed @mwl's book "Run your own mail server" on kickstarter. Time to learn how to do this properly...

Fun. Yellow weather warnings for storms for the start of this week. Fun.

Predicting half the months rain could fall in a day. Localised flooding is coming...

Rail geeks, what's happening with the ICE L stock replacing the steam train between Amsterdam and Berlin? Have they been spotted doing testing and validation runs?

Still having a very slow day. I managed to make lunch, and watch the f1. But it appears my headache isn't shifting. I'm kinda giving up on the idea of productivity today and opted for a rest is productive approach. Have had too much caffeine to actually nap. But it's nice to lay on the bed with my eyes shut and enjoy the calm.

American tech bros be like “Europe has no Google” and all I have to say to them is YOU have no Dutch Poultry Technology, the company that produces 80% of the world’s chicken processing machines. We will survive without choking on your fucking ads but will YOU survive whilst choking on fucking chicken bones? I THINK NOT

@quixoticgeek@v.st avatar

@joenash that's certainly a more original one that ASML...

@quixoticgeek@v.st avatar

@joenash you honestly expect anything less? Those boners depends on the products of Eindhoven too you know!

quixoticgeek,
@quixoticgeek@v.st avatar

@joenash exactly. Without these fowl boners how would we rise to be such significant players on the world stage?

Got up early and went for a bike ride with @th. A simple 30km loop toy the edge of Haarlem and back. Tis good to be back in the saddle. Life's conspired to keep me from riding as much as I'd like in the last few months. Hopefully I can get out and ride a bit more now. Esp as Summer's finally arrived

It's nuts in Star Trek that they postulate nobody would know how to cook anymore bc of replicators. True cooking perverts would love the opportunity to have a kitchen where you could get any quantity of any ingredient instantly, AND (maybe more impressive) any cooking implement.

I could use a huge wok or waffle iron or food processor without worrying about where to put it. Just chuck it back in the replicator with the dishes when you're done

New levels of food perversion unlocked
