Saw a post theorizing you now encounter more people listening to things on speakers in public spaces because Apple banning the headphone jack did not result in people switching to Bluetooth headphones, it resulted in people abandoning headphones. I'm on an airplane RN and. Thinking about that. Hard.

Growing up in a deeply religious environment, I have a very strong aversion to people who attempt to moralize everything they like or dislike.
There's a difference between "don't buy this because the author donates money to orphan burning machine development" and "fandom proxy war"

Anyways, sometimes I see people on social media who think their thing is the most important thing in the world, and expect everyone to have a) seen it, b) have an (approved) opinion on it, and c) begun to go to war over it. You'll see people act like all of civilization will explode if not

After two successive bank holidays, there is much confusion amongst the bins on our road about when they are meant to be attended to. One bin is in a tree. Another bin is crouched behind a hedge, crying. Several other bins have left to seek work overseas.

This sort of thing should be regarded as a significant infosec failure: denial of service
Trying to speak to my GP be like: "you can only do this online" "you must log in to two different portals" "these portals need to send you security codes" "the security codes haven't come? Wait a few minutes and then click send again" "oh? You waited ten mins and then clicked send again? Fuck you."
