Dear @salchellew.bsky.social This Is Just To Say I have eaten the lamington that was in the container and which you were probably saving for dessert Forgive me it was delicious so sweet and so coconutty

Abortion medication is really easy to get in Australia!

Imagine telling an artist, "Why do you still paint? Cameras exist."

News flash: Pro-AI YouTuber can't spell. *Don't recommend channel*

The Azure portal just loves scrollbars!

There's no way that @davidshoebridge.bsky.social called to end military support for Ukraine, right? Surely that's being misreported. Otherwise it's a terrible lapse of judgement.

Those old enough will remember when Windows first gained traction and every bloody app was "Win" something-or-other. Now Omarchy has taken off and every app and plug-in is "Oma" something-or-other.

How about instead of subsidising batteries and putting the onus of storage on the customer, we force electricity companies to pay us for electricity at a rate closer to what we pay them? I pay them 50c per kWh, but they pay me on average around 5c. It's crazy. @chrisbowenmp.bsky.social

I can't even play an instrument, Ed. But regardless, the answer is no.

The noun should be spelled "promice". Don't at me.

If you run a YouTube channel, there's still time to rethink that AI-generated thumbnail before I click "don't recommend channel" on your video and never see you again.

You can stop now. The cows have come home.

The complete (for now) set of Dan Da Dan Funko Pops!

There's a human designer somewhere who historically has made flyers with a yellow/red/brown pallet, paint brush strokes to highlight text, and bold fonts, and Chat GPT has completely ruined their life.

Bash gets it.

Coming up on two months using Omarchy now. Haven't booted into Windows since installing. DHH is inspirational when talking about computers, but abhorrent when talking about politics. I'm taking solace in the fact that Omarchy is not a commercial venture so I'm not funnelling money to fascists.

Getting lots of micro NBN dropouts this morning in North Albury. Internet connection drops for 5-10 seconds and comes back. No reported outage ... frustrating.

Oh look it's another AI-generated YouTube thumbnail! *plonk*

Hello from Omarchy Quattro! 😀

Managed to kill my Omarchy session tonight with an OpenCode-generated script so thoroughly that the PC wouldn't even boot. I had to unplug the mains power and hold the power button in for 15 seconds to drain the motherboard. Never seen anything like it before.

Met a neighbour on our walk.

If the Australian Labor Party just did what was good for the majority of the Australian population and ignored how absolutely shit the opposition and ON were, they’d be even further ahead in the polls with less to worry about. #Auspol.

More and more of my work day is being spent marking Teams chats as read because bloody Facilitator has posted junk into them.

Hot take: Magneto being a holocaust survivor didn't even make sense back when the original X-Men movie (set in the "not-too-distant future") came out in 2000. It'd be dumb to do it again now and hand wave it away with some stupid "he's a mutant so he's long-lived" excuse.

The only way this Lindsay Graham thing could be more suss is if he fell out a window.

I think I might be an #Omarchy boy now. ❤️

It's weird, the pride you feel for doing things many people would consider mundane. I haven't opened a desktop PC in decades so that was scary for me.

As much as I hate generative AI, I am finding the built-in Copilot app quite handy for answering questions like "what the hell does this mean?"

I got a new keyboard - the Nuphy Air75 v3. One tiny thing I didn't realise would take time to get used to is that the F keys aren't grouped together in sets of four with gaps between them, so my muscle memory of finding F5 has been disrupted.

Scorptec's "ready to run" PC was shipped to me chock full of packing foam inside the case. I had to unscrew the case to remove it. Makes sense for shipping, but I wouldn't call it "ready to run"! /r/mildlyinfuriating

Holy shit Disclosure Day was fantastic

The sprinkler system guys just pulled the "parts - $8.18, knowing where to put them - $500" trick on me.

The problem isn't that Trump keeps failing asleep; the problem is that he keeps waking up.

People who say "without further adieu".

So ... did everyone else know that USB 3 ports emit a bit of radio noise and can make your 2.4 GHz dongle mouse feel really janky? I plugged the dongle into an extension cable so it wasn't near a cluster of ports anymore and now the mouse pointer is buttery smooth.
