After spending the week writing sci-fi battles in an set of elevators, it was a bit freaky to need to enter one this morning.🤣

Problem solved, closing twenty browser tabs. Just some three hundred to go.

At some point, America is going to run out of the free credit monitoring offered after a data breach, and we're going to need something a little more concrete, like actual data protection laws.

Reinstallation is the tha last refuge of those who don't RTFM.

Editing a message to a medical doctor to get it below the max number of chars in the message system. I used all of my bird site tricks. 😅

Totally nuts!:

85% majority black Alabama town.

All prior mayors white. No elections in decades, position "inherited."

Patrick Braxton decides to run for mayor in 2020. Approaches current mayor, who lies to him about qualification process.

Braxton successfully navigates the correct qualification process nonetheless.

Nobody else bothers to qualify. Braxton elected as mayor.

County judge says: no one bothered to qualify/ be elected to town council positions either, he may appoint his own council.

Weeks after the election, current mayor and council meet in secret, no notice of the meeting published, declare a special election, no notice of that either, and effectively reappoint themselves to their current positions.

Then they release a statement admitting "that Plaintiff Patrick Braxton is Black and is the former Mayor of the Town of Newbern."

!!!???

Now a matter of a federal civil rights lawsuit.

Mindboggling.

It turns out I was wrong. This might be one of the lichens that is very resistant to pollution. Nevertheless, we know from other sources that the air here *is* clean :)

Próbujemy ustalić, gdzie nasza drukarka ma dupę. Żeby móc ją w nią kopnąć.

Jak ktoś ma już dość swojej starej laserówki, bo niemodna i brzydka, to proszę o kontakt. Młodszych niż osiemnastoletnie nie zatrudniamy.

A nice patch of on a roof of a house where we had a installation a few days ago. Good to see that the air here is clean – lichens are usually a good indicator of air quality.

While on my way around town with the bike because of some business related errands I came across this view.

Workers on a small drilling platform on "#Mühlenteich" are still probing the ground of the lake.

A bridge built during GDR-times, which forms one of the few roads into the town #centre of #Wismar (which historically was an #island in between Baltic Sea, wetlands, lakes and inlets and will be an island again in the future because of rising sea levels) has to be replaced in due time.

So looking at the 'x.com' domain, it's a non-HTTPs (and of course no-HSTS) 302 redirect to twitter.com. Did the God Emperor create the worlds largest phishing MITM exploit vector?

Given the way the gender coding of pink vs. blue got inverted between 1820 and 1920, a regency era time traveller visiting 2023 would be struck by how aggressively masculine Barbie World is.

@didleth @Hogata Jechałam kiedyś do pracy, widzę typ na chodniku się przewraca. Zatrzymuję się. Pytam co się dzieje: typ mówi a) chyba mam zawał, b) opowiada coś o partnerce, która go zostawiła i się zabije.

Może jest pijany, może nie jest - nie mi ocenić. Dzwonię na 112 wyraźnie mówiąc, że chodzi o pogotowie, że być może zawał ale też trudna sytuacja. Zamiast karetki przyjeżdża policja. Odwozi typa do domu, każe mi jechać za nimi. W domu go lżą przed kolegami, mi policjantka zapowiada, że

Breaking: The porn industry complains that Twitter changing its name to X sullies the industry’s brand.

There are 83 of these "EIRE sign" sites around the Irish coast (many of them much less visible than this example, which was rediscovered and restored in 2017-2019). They were created during World War Two to make pilots aware that they were overflying a neutral country.

The screenshot shows how this one looks in OSM. There has been some creative tagging to get the letters to display (a wall of height zero requires a bit of mental gymnastics), but nobody can say it is not "on the ground".
