Lesson learned today: don’t think “hey, I’ll just eat when I get back from the gym”, because that results in eating a huge meal at 10pm, and then I’m not at all tired at half midnight despite needing to be up in the morning.
TWICE. Twice in one fucking day.

Another day, another minor crisis caused by me not putting something in my calendar.
@tommorris @jackeric unfortunately all coverage of laws is played as a Westminster soap opera because it gets covered by the political reporters, who don’t really have any in-depth knowledge of anything other than the Westminster social scene.
Seeing the British political media turn the debate about #OnlineSafetyAct into a catty fight between Peter Kyle and Farage without looking at the underlying problem—namely, the legislation being an overly complicated dogs dinner—is sadly predictable.
Nor is anyone talking about how it’s a regulatory moat that protects the big players like Facebook rather than holding them to a much higher standard.
@skjeggtroll @jackeric @itsOasus both Google and Apple have systems like that based on their mobile wallets in development but the UK government being the UK government decided that would make sense and pushed on with the current piss poor solution instead.
What is with all the Sendgrid spam? I swear every other email I get is someone trying to steal some Sendgrid credentials.
@q that’s loads of space, you could five people in that for a 3 hour journey. They’ll be best friends by the time they get where they’re going.
- Hey, you know how salmon jump up waterfalls on their way to spawn? I managed to catch one on video.
- Nice. You haven't done anything stupid to this amazing, strong, determined, creature have you?
-
- I said...
- I heard what you said.
All search boxes ever: if there are results for what I typed in but none for what your autocorrection thinks I meant to type it’s safe to assume I knew what I was doing.
@eskibrew @jmacarthur I find that promotional photo very amusing. Traditional TV person: smiling, but looking casual and approachable. YouTuber: Grinning like a loon and pointing at something.
@gsuberland that’s been my conclusion whenever I touch it as well. It’s Fine, but I find it quite tedious to write, and too verbose to read.
My phone just asked me whether [number] is still my phone number to make sure I can recover access. Surely it can just ask the SIM card?
@fesshole Christ. Just buy yourself a coke and a chocolate bar, she’s your wife not your mother. Or I hope so anyway.
@andypiper @skylar the curse of the Net Promoter Score, somehow considered to be a valid substitute for managers going out into the world and seeing what the service their responsible for is like.
I’ve recently been paying attention to what I eat, and exercising regularly. I was going to make some snide remark about that because it’s quite out of character for me but you know what? All those people who say it makes you feel better know what they’re talking about, I feel better than I have done in quite a long time.
@pikesley because the age verification thing is going swimmingly. How about we put a two hour screen time limit on MPs so they can stop reacting to whatever the Daily Mail tweeted recently and go do something useful instead.
@jalefkowit and yet somehow the rational market says Tesla is still worth more than Ford, General Motors, Rivian, and several other manufacturers combined.
Report imaginary spies or danger to the Gestapo or police.
@MattPCart @anon_opin also it’s just a terrible time. I highly recommend avoiding the need to attend a hospital, they’re full of sick people and doctors poke and prod you.
@pikesley it’s fucking everywhere and I hate it. The gradual decline of every service everywhere from Providing the Service to simply being a funnel into whatever get rich quick scheme is bit this week.
Not saying I’m having difficulty thinking today but I just asked myself whether a device had a network connection as a possible cause for some odd lines in the logs being streamed to me from it across the internet.
