@catsalad did you truncate the second one on purpose to annoy me? Neither of these are particularly cursed.

This week I've stared at user agent strings so much it's got me more unhinged than usual.

@elilla I get 404?

@LRRRonEarth 🙀

@babble_endanger That would be cool.

@bloor It looks like a face.

Via my Google alerts, I have discovered that Germany's "Commissioner for Human Rights Policy and Humanitarian Assistance" is a Castellucci.

Interesting.

The Raspberry Pi is fine and the relay board works.

I wanted to mount a quad relay board underneath my desk for hard booting embedded stuff I'm hacking on. I ended up deciding to use old motherboard stand offs from my bin of disused fasteners. Drilled some pilot holes a bit smaller than the thread diameter, then used an appropriate amount of force. Got the relay board attached just fine. The question is whether the Raspberry Pi I attached it to will survive.

Any screw can be self tapping if you're violent enough.

@nyanbinary The sums are already obscured by their vastness, I think this would make things easier to understand.

Actually, I think all business financial reports should be in dB$, it's the only sensible way to deal with the dynamic range, standard exponential notation has poor usability.

Cloud compute costs should be displayed in dB$.

@simonzerafa oh fuck that is even more cursed thanks i hate it

@domi @signalapp I know. But I can still whine. I've been using Signal since it was TextSecure...

Fuuuuck, I just misparsed "Spanish" as "Siphash".

@signalapp can I turn it off?

I posted recently about dnsmasq behaving poorly due to fsync - apparently this was exacerbated by the new Apple TV my partner go, which likes to refresh its DHCP lease every fourty seconds when in sleep mode.

This, apparently, has been a known issue for years.

I configured a static IP on the blighter to ensure I don't also run out of disk space.

@jima @nowster @lanodan @dalias @owen definitely delegation

Like, this was what I wanted them to do, but they did it through sheer incompetence.
