To any company that sells a service online…

For the love of all that is good; Please stop sending emails with links to 3rd-party link tracking services that are meant to go to your own fucking god-damn services in the first place!

For the love of god! 🤦‍♂️

@johanbove@johanbove.info But which one(s)? 🤔🤔 Serious question; my neighbor next door swears by the BBC and ABC (I’m Australian); but honestly even those news sources are full of political rhetoric and non-facts (opinions, etc) – I have yet to see a single news source of actual facts and nothing more.

In-reply-to » My OS has a Brainfuck interpreter now and this counts as a programming language, right? We’re feature complete now. 😂

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Woohoo, noice! Now you can ship, even sell it! :-D

All kidding aside, even though I never wrote a proper brainfuck program myself, I do like that. :-) Keep it going.

Heute gab es mal wieder eine Netzwerkveranstaltung / LAN-Party. Mit feinen Leuten einfach nur daddeln, Pizza essen und Bier trinken. Toll!

Yeah, @bender@twtxt.net, I absolutely love it! :-D Monty Python just rocks!

This very knight inspired me to make myself a knight helmet with opening visor out of an old washing machine sheet metal years ago for a theater play. It was really great fun, both making the helmet as well as using it during the week in the play as a silly and shady prince who got all his tracts of land by winning dubious games.

I just couldn’t really hear very well in it. And if somebody hit me on the head or just slightly knocked on the helmet, it was incredibly loud. No fine craftmanship by any means and obviously historically extremely questionable at best, but it did the job well enough. One of the running gags was that I had to open the visor when I wanted to talk. Here are some photos in action, you’ll find many more when surfing through the gallery:

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Woah, that’s insane! Yeah, I wanted to take it easy as well, but then suddenly got 9:30 hours on the clock… :-/

Vacations were great, it took me five attempts this morning to enter my disk encryption password. :-D

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I got a bit over 1,000, which isn’t bad at all. During Thanksgiving holidays I got over 2,000.

I am at inbox zero now, but not telling my boss. This week I feel like I need it slow, to recover from the vacation. LOL.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I read some of them that I thought might be kinda important. But nearly none really were. I gotta try your approach next time. :-)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Not bad, I got over 1000. (And I expected more as well.) It felt great to just create a folder called “vacation2024” and move them all in there, done. 😏

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Earplugs are great, too! Feels like they block out more noise than NC headphones.

I automatically take off the headphones when I’m half asleep. I don’t even notice it. 😂

My shoulder muscles are sore from yesterday’s overhead concrete drilling. I even totalled a good drill bit. The workshop air cleaner is now installed on the ceiling. I even can plug in the shop vac directly above its usual location without having to walk over (or usually on) the cord on the ground. The shop vac hose crane had to be shortened 9cm in length in order to fit underneath the air cleaner.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Over-ear headphones make moving and turning around quite uncomfortable. But it looks like you’re having a very calm sleep, unlike me, who likes to turn a bit on the side every now and then, too.

When I use noise cancelling devices in bed (absolutely required at scouting events), it’s simple ear plugs. I got myself a big pack of 200 pairs nine and a half years ago (oh wow, didn’t realize I have them this long). A lifetime supply. Especially when I reuse them two, three dozen times or so before they’re worn out and don’t seal properly anymore.

In-reply-to » StackExchange/dnscontrol: Infrastructure as code for DNS! 👈👈 Now this looks might interesting... I might look into this for managing my own domains and DNS. I note that my current registrar isn't on the list of supported registrars, oh well, I don't like OnlyDomains™ much anyway. Anyone familiar with these regisrars?

@suitechic@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Even Namecheap has a bunch of other service offerings 🤣 I’m kind in the market for a new registrar, one that has a decent API and just does domain name registrations 🤔
