No #wazuh, not an attack. Just another stupid #ai bot hallucinating impossible search facet combinations. 🙄

Ha. TIL #chatgpt uses #cloudflare. 😂

Aaaand #cloudflare is down. \o/

One of several sources for the "a class killed every day" boost I just made: https://www.savethechildren.net/news/gaza-20000-children-killed-23-months-war-more-one-child-killed-every-hour

I'm going to share this again, because every time I read it, it gets more awesome: https://climatedrift.substack.com/p/why-solarpunk-is-already-happening These are African-run companies making a massive difference for Africa and the world, by bringing sustainable electricity to places the grid […]

Working on the Maurice & Harry content this evening. We're *so close* to shipping now. If you're interested in #wine and #uk based, drop me a line. 😃

Bit of a panic there. My wife had just left for the weekend and I was pottering about doing some bits on the car, and I thought I got my arm stuck in the engine bay. 😱 Managed to free myself when I stopped panicking and examined my predicament, but can you imagine??

Well, glad I didn't buy FL Studio for my son last week. This week it's €50 cheaper! #music #blackfriday

That company that provided the software to replace half of your admin job also boosted the price of electricity so high you can't afford to cook... 😬 https://edition.cnn.com/2025/11/14/climate/virginia-data-centers-ai-maryland-electricity-bill-increase #ai

If middle-aged men playing French rock punk is your thing, here's Troquet d'Poche opening our set at #argorock this summer. Prepping some tracks for local radio. 😃 #music

Go home, Wappalyzer, you're drunk! 🤣

Yay, my talk for #drupal 4 Gov in #brussels in January has been accepted. It's about preparing #localgovdrupal for the market in #france. 😎

Bad surprises for people still using #xorg on #fedora when you upgrade to version 43 - read this first and make sure you can SSH on to your machine from another machine on the network, because you won't be able to open another local terminal […]

Come to think of it, cleaned two 1970s cameras this morning and drove a 1970s car to band practice this afternoon, it's been a 1970s kind of day. 😂

The Fiat 500 hadn't moved since July. Four months later and it started almost immediately, empty fuel lines, so just had to wait until the fuel arrived at the engine. Otherwise, she ran beautifully. These little cars are so reliable. ♥️

This morning we have been cleaning up a 1975 Pentax KM and a 1973-76 (not entirely sure) Canon FTb. Sadly both have broken light meters, but otherwise work. I've watched a few repair videos, but it looks a bit scary, so I think I might have to hunt around for a mechanical camera specialist […]

Amazing. My GP (who came out of retirement to fill the post, and doesn't seem to know how to use his computer) has completely fluffed the renewal of my chronic arthritis medical cover here in France, so now *I* have two months to appeal *his* fuck-up. I really need to change GP. 😩

Their founders might be dicks, but BrewDog do a mean burger. Pisses all over Gordon Ramsey's Burger Bollocks, or whatever it's called. #food

Another day, another site slowed to a crawl by an AI bot aggressively crawling its search service. 🙄

Jesus, looks like an engine literally fell off that UPS cargo plane that crashed the other day. 😬

Leather Lane. ❤️ 😋 #food https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leather_Lane

Insanity. https://edition.cnn.com/2025/11/05/business/elon-musk-trillionaire-or-leave-tesla

Well this is a crying shame. One of my favourite lunch spots in #Clerkenwell, judging by the bailiff's notice they couldn't pay their bills. I will say this, #fediverse - if you're in #London and putting on a lunch function or something, you can do far worse than […] [Original post on tooting.ch]

Fancy free and footloose in central London, family back in France, the whole city before me, and what am I doing? Pottering about the flat fixing things. 😂

There's a quiz, but it doesn't work in Brave. I need to change mobile browser. 😭

Ha, Robert Douglass is doing the awards at #mauticon.

Finally made it to #mauticon, just in time for @rcheesley 's keynote! 😅

I am so full. But god the food in Italy is sooooo good.

"That's no pumpkin!" My friend Tom has made a Death Star pumpkin. 😍 (Also, Death Star Pumpkins is definitely a great band name.) #halloween

As a white, middle class, middle-aged bloke, he probably doesn't give two shits what people like me think, but I do rate Dave. I haven't listened to this yet, but I shall: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2025/oct/24/dave-the-boy-who-played-the-harp-album-review #music (My son is obsessed […]

Shhhh, don't scare it away... 🤫😂

Wow! How did they even?? 😯 The weather conditions must've been perfect, but nevertheless, that's seriously impressive. There's no way my ID.Buzz (with a larger battery) would get anywhere near that range on a single charge […]

A water mill converted into a hydro electric plant in 1921! Still working... #greenenergy #hydro

In other news, the chihuahua just jumped on to my laptop. I think she's hungry. She's as bad as a cat. 🙄

Once again had to download a stupid app and spend ten minutes by the side of the road faffing with my phone to charge the car. This is such a huge barrier to entry for so many people, I do not know why you cannot just plug your car in and swipe a bank card, it is ridiculous. No wonder people […]

Cool, I just realised the national park where I am is using #drupal! 😎 https://www.pngp.it/

I think I win #weirdcarmaston ! 😂 // @davidwilkins

Yup, this is the Tangerine Tyrant refusing to fund anything that highlights #climatecrisis is real and undermines his message that it's all a hoax: https://fediscience.org/@Ruth_Mottram/115428564988842528 😢

The incredible tragedy for #ArcticScience of NOAA shutting down their #methane monitoring data. 5th May 2025 is the last data we'll ever get. #nckf25

TIL Germany has "charging lounges". I guess this was inevitable... 🙄 https://www.electrive.com/2025/10/22/porsche-opens-ninth-charging-lounge-in-germany/

Imagine living somewhere where this is NORMAL. 😍 https://mastodon.nu/@mrsostberg/115397644828857095

Ha, this is exactly what happened when I was a kid, my mum was convinced I had a hearing problem. Nope! Doctor said "he just doesn't listen..." 😂 https://mastodon.social/@fesshole/115405565535725742

It appears #aws might be having serious #iam identity services issues today. The #xero status page is currently blaming AWS for a global outage of their login services: https://status.xero.com/ That tracks, because our #saml based #sso page for logging into AWS accounts is not working and […]

Entered my volunteering time for #drupalcon. Hope people are having a nice contrib day, sorry I couldn't stick around. Had to meet my dad at Marseille airport... 😬

Our accountant tells me the UK gov is effectively withdrawing the Cycle To Work scheme for people who work remotely, you now have to evidence the bike purchased will be used for work purposes at least 50% of the time. This might sound fair on the face of it, HOWEVER, it's costing the gov […]

Coup of my #DrupalCon, getting the Acquia barista to put coffee into my @codeenigma#drupalconreusable cup from #drupaldevdays. It's the little victories. 😂 Thanks @factorial_io, 1x Internet and @acquia for providing decent, FREE coffee btw. But spare a thought for the poor sod running the paid coffee […]

Another year, another lanyard. #drupalconeu
