There was a massive rainstorm in Connecticut on Sunday - we were not home so we didn't see it in person, but the chart showing our sump pump's activity for the last 48 hours tells a pretty good story.

I chose apple, in case anyone was holding their breath in suspense.

Update: I received multiple suggestions to use Kanidm instead, since it is also lightweight but has built-in support for replication. I'll go that route!

@jzb@hachyderm.io @tantramar@zeroes.ca In cookies they just look like dead flies.

@mhoye@cosocial.ca Article produced with "AI assistance", so possibly responsible for some of the continued water usage documented in the article.

@grumpydad@infosec.exchange @cR0w@infosec.exchange At a job some years back one of the maintenance team members placed a bucket of 'ice melt' near an exterior door because there had been a large snowstorm and the concrete outside the door built up ice every night. They labeled the bucket "not eatable", but I don't remember anyone responding "challenge accepted".

@patc@pdx.social I just saw an "Adobe AI" commercial on TV which touted the use of AI to make marketing "feel more human".

@benpocalypse@mastodon.social And then squeezes a lemon?

@andrewnez@mastodon.social Also axios.

@jalefkowit@hachyderm.io Even the ground coffee is hard to find among all the single-serve pods and capsules.

@TheRealPomax@mastodon.social No no no, the worst thing you can do to a cast iron pan is cook in it!

@sue@glasgow.social We've been getting repeated invitations to DevRelCon (in a few weeks), presumably because attendance this year will likely be extremely low. I almost made a plan to go just to see how terrible the overall mood would be.

@a@852360996.91268476.xyz Lots of reasons, or it may just become inaccessible due to an ISP or hosting service routing problem.

@mhoye@cosocial.ca The moment I read "small Scottish company" in the intro I knew it had to be Linn.

@joepie91@fedi.slightly.tech Are they the same people who confidently claim that solar power doesn't work?

@jzb@hachyderm.io What is the name/type of the mesh material you used?

@bitprophet@social.coop @chrisjrn@social.coop 67 + goose = 71

A sign made by a marketing team who does not understand the difference between percentages and percentage points. A discount of 0.05% of a mortgage rate is so small it is almost not worth asking for.

@Techmeme@techhub.social Why did it take Grok a year to rewrite it?

@nixCraft@mastodon.social Cat toys.

@gary_alderson@infosec.exchange PocketID only supports SQlite as the database, so there's no way to do shared database failover.

@linux_mclinuxface@fosstodon.org A carbide-tipped hole saw would do the job, as long there isn't any structural metal in the path.

@vmbrasseur@social.vmbrasseur.com You'll enjoy the 'Improve this slide' button which turns the slide into a PNG.

@johnmark@freeradical.zone No.

A salad of romaine lettuce, croutons, shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano, and 'house' vinaigrette is not a Caesar salad.

@catsalad@infosec.exchange "I use Arch Linux btw."

@joe@f.duriansoftware.com See: Python before the GILectomy.

@TheRealPomax@mastodon.social SFP+ or 10GBaseT?

@jalefkowit@hachyderm.io People will just have to order their Luxe Boxes without lettuce.

@jpmens@mastodon.social It's becoming a CDN thing, because AI agents work better (for some definition of better) when they can consume the docs in Markdown.

Today I had a lovely DIY success: using tools and guides from @iFixit@mastodon.social I successfully replaced the battery in a 4 year old OnePlus 9 Pro which was otherwise in perfect working order. My wife's phone was purchased at the same time and also needs a new battery so I'll do that one tomorrow. We will keep using these phones until the unfixed security vulnerability situation forces us to do something else, although that might be switching to @GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social . The guide said 'moderate' and predicted one hour for the repair, and that was accurate. The second one will take less time of course 😁 #DIY #RepairReuseRecycle

We are rewatching Six Feet Under and I had completely forgotten about Rainn Wilson being in the show, and his character being the prototype for Dwight Schrute.

@eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place @alice@lgbtqia.space the 'big tent' approach

@johnmark@freeradical.zone @mattblaze@federate.social And now it's back.

@edward@hachyderm.io I've seen this so many times. I don't understand how people produce things without ever having tried to use them.

@bkuhn@fedi.copyleft.org At the risk of pointlessly poking the bear, I truly do not understand your conclusion that the submitter's proposed text constitutes a 'further restriction'. It does not restrict anything.

@joat@mastodon.scot Indeed. I really get annoyed by advertising which claims that something is the "most affordable". Affordability is a very subjective thing and will be different for everyone.

@dillyd@turtleisland.social Modern units, in addition to their various terrible features and reduced build quality, have this type of alarm built in. Ours has a red 'power outage' indicator on the control panel which has to be manually acknowledged.

@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org Here in CT we saw a man about 45 minutes ago 'out for a run'. No hat, no sunglasses, no hydration bottle, just out for a run.

@johnmark@freeradical.zone @mattblaze@federate.social Mint here, also out.

@Ehay2k@mastodon.social @futurebird@sauropods.win This isn't even new, it's been happening for a few years now. It's sickening.

@dpiponi@mathstodon.xyz Also the 'support' email is an outlook.com address. Very corporate and professional.

@Techmeme@techhub.social And only the US is allowed to operate a Strait of Hormuz toll booth!

@Em0nM4stodon@infosec.exchange Shrinking on Apple TV.

@chandlerc@hachyderm.io I have not used them for this purpose but have used them for ballast in bags of food in our immersion circulator. After the first time cleaning them I got a small mesh laundry bag (usually sold for washing lingerie) and that worked well.

@bkuhn@fedi.copyleft.org OK, so you're saying this is a restriction on a downstream user of the software's rights, which makes sense. I had not previously thought of 'further restriction' applying beyond the initial recipient/user of the software - the proposed 'further permission' does not apply any additional restrictions to them.

60 minutes from downtown hotel to airport security entrance, using public transit. Nice job Denver!
