This is thoughtful design: Muji apparently released a flashlight that works with any combination of 2 AA and 2 AAA batteries, only more dimly with fewer batteries.

Oh for fuck's sake!

My estate agent has been pestering me to comply with new fascist requirements to prove you're a UK citizen in order to continue renting a place to live, and I can't even do it in Firefox.

What is this, 1998? This is why it's bad that Chrome has been allowed to dominate the browser "market"

Just wanted to share some exciting news with you. ActivityPub has just been made available on both free and paid WordPress.com accounts. Isn't that awesome? Now, millions of new users could potentially join the Fediverse. It's a pretty big deal!

Omg lol... I just found this 😆

Ealing: Beaver family released in west London wetland.

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-67075177

"Beavers have been reintroduced to west London for the first time in about 400 years in a bid to improve biodiversity and help mitigate the impact of climate change.

The family of five Eurasian beavers were released at Paradise Fields, an area of wetlands in Ealing.

They were relocated from a wild beaver population in Scotland by a coalition of wildlife groups."

The year is 2030.

Computers boot directly into the browser. IDEs are just a web app now, running in the GPU. No one knows why. Or how.

All programs run in 4 nested containers on top of a hypervisor abstracting over the 5 major computational clouds. The last time a branch was predicted correctly, in any CPU anywhere, was 4 years ago.

Cloud costs are withdrawn directly from your retirement fund.

Ext7 just came out, it's written in Javascript and uses AI to guess what the file may contain.

The future is smol and #solar-powered. Wireless access point and server for the neighborhood server project.

This is the one that did it. This is the one that made me say yeah, I'm not waiting for those bozos to figure it out anymore, and change my default search engine *even in Chrome*.

Nad jeziorkiem. Piękny październik.

Remember copper pair theft?

Remember how we were pleased it would go away with fibre?

We have now seen a fibre tail from a pole to a property get stolen to provision a new FTTP service. Great.

I'm always shocked by how expensive basic European experiences are in the US. One of my favorite things is high street shops. You have a bunch of stores with apartments above them, so you can always live within walking distance of basically everything. In the US they separate things into commercial and residential districts so you have to drive everywhere.

Areas that allow mixing residential and commercial buildings are so rare that supply & demand sends costs through the roof. In Europe living in an apartment above stores is a budget option for people who can't afford homes, in the US you basically have to be wealthy and often those apartments cost as much as an entire house.

A bit of close-up photography I did for a camera club competition with the theme "still life with a twist". Sadly, not to the judge's taste. Just a close-up of four woodscrews from my DIY stuff collection.

Nobody will invest in #WindPower at these prices.

The outlook today. I wonder if the weather is clearing. The clouds seem to be moving off to the east.
