Bought a laptop with me to England. Only used it to plug into telly and watch plex. Have ignored all work. Feels fucking magnificent honestly.

Travelling to the UK. Airport absolutely deserted late on a Monday evening.
I don't know why, but alongside the resting Deer from yesterday, there is also a Turkey that has taken up residence in my garden .They must feel safe there. My dog is not feeling it. He has just got over the groundhog that lives there.

There is already a scanning process called "Read the fucking boarding pass" Why does this need to be solutionized? Just follow the damn rules.

I'm glad to announce the release of version 2.61 of #snac, the simple, minimalistic #ActivityPub instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:
Migration from a Mastodon account to a snac one has been implemented. Please see snac(8) (the administrator manual) for more information.
Mastodon API: fixed timelines/public (it was showing less posts that it should).
Fixed over-zealous caching to the public timeline.
Some HTML tweaks and fixes to the web interface.

This release has been inspired by the painting The Hands Resist Him by #BillStoneham.

A possum got into my recycling bin and could not get out. He's still sleeping in it.

Once you see the connection between LLMs and psychics / seances / spiritualism, it’s hard to unsee. At the center: people •want• to believe, and that is powerful. Thinking of modern-day SV, listen to some of the stories of how con artists used spiritualism…

An interesting musical curio is Sting's original demo for Every Breath You Take (he turned up to Synchronicity sessions with fully-formed demos of most of his stuff; the bellwether for the end of The Police). Andy Summers absolutely hated it, until he wrote *that* guitar part and the rest is history. #music

I expect there are some legal protections they are abusing here.
