Covid inquiry, Home Office
Just having a catch up on the headlines from the inquiry.
Saw them asking Priti Patel about plans to help vulnerable people.
Thought to myself "why are they asking her about that"? before realising that's something the Home Office is supposed to do.
It's meant to keep people safe.
What a damning indictment of the Home Office of recent years that I should be so surprised at having to connect those two things.
Grim.
@35millimetre non-motorway? meep! though fun if you limit yourself to 2 wheels... (but not in November. waterproof kit isn't ever 100%)
@35millimetre :/ it works if you take a break 1/2 - 3/4 of the way up the m6 and overnight around the border, but see: take extra days

OH: A coworker just shared a term she uses to describe meetings that go astray when certain coworkers bloviate. “Non-consensual TED talk.”
@35millimetre taking the extra day each end and driving is worth it. unless they are waaaaaaay up in the far north.
hunting out a non-scenic route back is way more difficult than just driving with eyes open and camera bag ready at hand ;)

We went to Joshua Tree yesterday (my second visit) and I brought my infrared camera along with me to see what I could capture. #infrared #photography #landscapephoto #landscapephotography

the sun is always shining somewhere, electricity flows near the speed of light, doesn't take a genius to realize that solar on demand is possible even in the middle of the night, it's just a matter of infrastructure and transcontinental agreements.

what all you bluesky people don't get is that the very second Jack Dorsey gets a billion dollar bid he's going to sell you all down the river without a second thought, just like he did with Twitter. and we all know how that turned out.

You have heard it said, "Those not learning from history are doomed to repeat it," but I tell you "those preventing history from being taught, intend to repeat it."

So you know how some people insist that you look at photos of their babies all the time, assuming you're interested in the minute changes since the last photo?
Yeah, so turns out I do that, but with fungi in my garden.

Because these billboards are just monitors rotated 90 degrees, they’re invisible to polarized sunglasses. It’s like a real-life ad blocker!

Finally assembled my 2nd server rack in the office. Meraki mx85, Cisco 9300, some servers.

just flubbed the sentence "sexual health and wellbeing" into "sexual wealth and hellbeing" on a client call and I feel like that is accidentally the best copy I've ever written
