The US finally understands the UK's reaction to the Cameron pig thing

RIP John Mayall

For those of over 60 John Mayall was one of the ways we discovered the blues (and its interaction with Jazz) in the 1960s/70s.... a fabulous advocate for the blues whose (often) mixed-race bands were a lesson in recognising your influences.

I only boot this up to mess with the stats.

Went for a walk. The clouds were in fine, fine form. Slightly badly behaved though.

Seriously, the clouds were spectacular today. Look at this fluffy beast!

I often worry that my imposter syndrome isn’t real.

Fuchsia flowers, in both bud and blooming forms, always make me think of fancy frocks. So aye.

The sun is peeking out. It's due to rain later. I desperately need to go and tidy the garden a bit as it is even wilder than usual.

Bah. Don't want to, but I'm going to, because apparently that's who I am now.

This isn’t far off.

Technically speaking CrowdStrike actually kept a lot of hackers from breaking into your systems today.

It's all fun and game until your Windows-powered electronic bidet decides to power wash you.

To fix the bungled CrowdStrike update, apparently you need to boot the system into safe mode and remove a file.

If the system was encrypted with Bitlocker, you need to enter the system's Bitlocker recovery key.

Apparently, many people are discovering they didn't have key management in place to store Bitlocker recovery keys, making it akin to a self-inflicted ransomware attack.

Proton Mail is now AI bullshit. Pass it on.

I prefer stereotypical school shooters opening fire on politicians instead of children, maybe if the politicians feel personally endangered they'll do something about it

Has anyone used #Jamulus on iOS with #Voiceover? I'm tearing my hair out trying to enter a server address, every time I double tap, VO goes back to the top of the screen. Screen recognition doesn't seem to help, either, though I thought it used a different form of tapping. Seriously, why does one always have to fight the interface to get something done, above and beyond solving the actual technical problem? Anyhow, if someone has done this, I'd be grateful to hear of it. #A11y #ScreenReader #Blind
