We have a hearing to decide whether we can bring our case against the Metropolitan Police’s handling of the Partygate investigation to the High Court.

The Met must show it is policing those in power without fear or favour.

Sometimes I wonder why I’m so tired all the time, then I remember we’re fighting fascism during a pandemic, while the world burns #politics #Covid #climate

This week I've remembered I have a blog account. And I think I might use it. I've made a start. tumblr.com/bykimbo

"Proud Patriot and Free Speech Absolutist"

Never have I blocked a new follower so fast in my life.

Sunday supplement regular feature pitch:

'My Shitty Office', in which leaders in the fields of the Arts, Industry, Sport etc. show us the absolute shitpit they work in.

@jim_easterbrook they're so desperate to show you all the possible maybe perhaps options they forget some of us actually know what we want

If Amazon want people to search on Amazon rather than Google they need to make their product search engine work properly (for the customer). My experience yesterday was typical. Search for "brother laser printer" and get HP printers, inkjet printers, toner cartridges, etc...

What we demonstrated is an example of the "Special Pleading Fallacy" en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specia where certain specific cases get a free ride in thought and discourse. People selectively fail to apply the moral and ethical standards they would use in other contexts 7/14

Shoutout to everyone who likes to seal a packet of biscuits by simply pushing the open end up against a wall.

Android’s Wifi stack is very weird, especially in prioritization and fallbacks.

You have two networks configured.

Number 1 uses WPA EAP (enterprise networking with username and password)
Number 2 uses WPA PSK (just a password)

Number 1 has priority.

On a location with both networks, the device connects to #1. Location with only network #2, it happily connects to #2. Change any of the cipher details on the network of #1, it automatically connects to #2.

But: remove the user from network #1 (so it can’t authenticate) and it will continue to try to connect to it, constantly. It will never fall back to #2.

This is sucks for M2M devices in enterprise environments. We use the fallback network (#2) to reprovision the username/password for #1 in case of relocation of the device or if the password expires, but we can’t now, because it doesn’t fall back automatically.

Oh well, another change I have to make to my Android ROMs…

Violent Saudi dictator, Bonesaw Mohamed bin Salmon who "invested" 2 billion in Jared Kushner's new "company," also uses Saudi fund to give untold millions to Trump's golf courses.

Trump's shady dealings don't just affect US National Security, but all of the 5 Eyes intelligence alliance (Canada ,Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom, United States).

Are all the top secret documents Trump stole accounted for? Were they photocopied? 5 Eyes have reasons for deep concern.

6am. 28 degrees. I'd better water the garden as soon as there's enough light to see what I'm doing. Meanwhile there's a flock of pterodactyls outside, or maybe it's just a bunch of sleep-deprived irritable cockatoos...

#Marmalade making day today! Have already simmered the fruit and am about to start cutting it up. The house smells wonderful.

@ColinTheMathmo I'm really surprised at this result. "I just about caught the train" is odd phrasing, but definitely (in my world) doesn't mean that they failed. It's not the same as "nearly" in this context; it's "it was touch and go but I just made it". "Did you catch the train", "yeah, just about!"
