or if anyone tries to put any kind of seafood in them

Quebec barefoot polka dot microtonal triangle band is good

macOS does that if you use a terminal and change directory or use find or whatever in ~/Music, same for Desktop etc

@edouard.paris thanks for your post and repo at edouard.paris/notes/instal... - I just used it and it worked great!

Hey, nixos-anywhere is pretty neat

An electron microscrope image of a tardigrade, playing a violin. A scale at the bottom right indiciates that it's around 150μm in length.

Would eurocrates work? you get them in a variety of different sizes and they all stack together

I am imagining the third item there is just you wandering about in a hat

Exciting! Bet that's a relief...

Attempting to make 2026 a year where I get really into utility cycling

Also it seems that the person in question understood things in the browser to not generally require credentials from their Windows account. Windows Hello blurs those lines by using your login PIN to authenticate, which is a bit of a departure

I'm not sure really. I don't use Windows so I don't know what the onboarding UX is like. It seems like it was easy to dismiss and create a key without quite understanding that's what it was doing. So there's a balance between education and not getting in the way of what someone is doing

Today it was around logging into Outlook.com, where a passkey existed but this wasn't understood - Windows Hello started asking for a PIN, but the user wasn't aware this was the PIN for the Windows user account and not a site-specific one that they didn't know about

Getting kind of bored of helping people out of the poor UX around passkeys. (It's not their fault, it's the platform)

Currently enjoying how Windows now has a migration tool to help transfer your data from an old to a new computer, except that the documentation says that it specifically excludes all of the data that I wanted to migrate

I have been learning welding for fun and one day I'd like to get into that kind of stuff

Stretched or weird colour casts, those are your options

Thank you for confirming!

I've never talked to anyone about this out loud, but am aware of the origin, so I'm not entirely sure if it's "leading" (same pronounciation as the word for "in front") or "lead-ing" like the metal

I don't know specifically if it can do this but I have heard people say nice things about Grist, maybe it would be a fit?

Renaming my latest hack with -rsng

I have asked a group of people who I figured would know, they tell me that the Underground uses a lot of +/- 55V power for ancillary services. Similar to 110V tools on building sites

I have never played one but I've been watching a lot of Ted Woodford on YouTube this last while and I have developed an appreciation for the look

If I'm subscribed to buy trees every month, is that ringfenced for trees, or can you use that for other stuff? (I don't mind either way! I'd prefer it was whatever was most useful in the moment)

The fun part of having a rotating set of interests is that one week I can have zero motivation in working on, reading about or even thinking of a particular topic, but next week I'm knee deep in minutiae of something which will last two weeks before moving on to whatever disinterests me at the time

I can really see why you'd be deathly scared of this thing if you were a character in a novel

It might be completely legitimate, but any time I get an email from a service saying "we've updated our login system, you'll need to reset your password", I get suspicious.

Maybe they have moved and couldn't migrate the password hashes for some reason? They are hashes, right...? Alternatively...

Wobbly windows > liquid glass

Ahh, good to know. I had imagined from headlines I'd read that e.g. knotweed needed to get taken away by people dressed like they were dealing with asbestos
