I am not of a tradition that celebrates Diwali but I fucking love it, there's such a beautiful sense of togetherness as the fireworks go off and light up the sky. Warms the heart in these miserable, cold times and I really seeing and hearing it. Happy Diwali to all who celebrate it!

@stavvers @Jo probably works best for very geographically disparate teams where timezoning is a factor.
there are still better ways of doing things for most project teams though

FAO white people: it's Diwali and Bandi Chhor Divas. More than a billion people in the world celebrate it. Hindus, Sikhs, Jains and some sects of Buddhists set off fireworks over the days it occurs and is a major religious festival all over the world that happens annually. That's why fireworks are going off ~when it's way after bonfire night~

In a move that does not surprise anyone with half a brain, of course, the english defence league and their associated racists turned up to the cenotaph looking to get violent, with those marching for peace.

That's what those fascists do. They fight the ppl marching for peace, and it turns out the police

I have the best conversations with my mom. I try my best at a translation of the call I just had with her:

phone ringing
Me: Hello m...
Her: Eʟᴅᴇʀ Sᴘᴀᴡɴ.
Me: ...
Me: Yᴇs Gʀᴀɴᴅ Mᴀᴛʀɪᴀʀᴄʜ.

Her: Try to be punctual.

I always refer to her when people ask me "why are you like this?".

Important news for all nerds: The Unix timestamp will begin with 17 this Tuesday.

i think it's crazy that any usb cable designed to supply over 60 watts or 480 Mbps needs to have a dedicated IC inside. the so called "E-marker" chip. at what point did electrical engineers think it was ok to turn cables into computers? the interface should handle all that not the cable. just sloppy and stupid. PoE can supply 100 watts and gigabit speeds with just a regular Ethernet cable. no excuses.

🎶 Welcome to the juggle,
We got balls and clubs
We got all the skills you want,
And honey, we know the names
We are the people that can show
Whatever trick you need
If you got the money, honey,
We got your disease 🎶

Been reading too much news today, while feeling a bit under the weather.

I did find a leaf building a protective cage around itself though.

Sounds like a plan.

@35millimetre July in Scotland was very... moist. My boots were the *only* things that held dry :/
