This game is so relaxing... #PlacidPlasticDuck

#Epson EW-M5610FT site: (Note 4) The product will reach the end of its life when it reaches the number of pages specified in the durability limit or after 5 years, whichever comes first. Does that mean it goes to the carousel? Or is there really an afterlife? 100000 pages in 5 years ~ 55/day

Updated #firefox, now with extra #ASS, sorry #AI It defaults to OFF. How soon before AI ebay's our preferences?

At least the Express5800/T110m series doesn't seem to use the abandoned in 2019 "Mergepoint EMS" Although it still seems like they want to screw you for the KVM license (a mere 58000 yen) when Gigabyte, the board maker, includes the same BMC software by AMI but with the KVM for free. Seriously #NEC

GATE 2 ... Has it really been 10 years already? www.youtube.com/watch?v=2P40...

Not Sakura, that's about 3~4 weeks away:

B-Side makes cute keyholder thingies! Defo-chan!

Sad vending machine is sad...

Today's #spam comes from some "legitimate" company that used NJALLA as a registrar (and DNS and hosting.) What prompted this idiocy I wonder? If you want to look legitimate, starting from -100 is not going to help at all. (Insert rant about how crap rdap is here too!)

www.alphapolis.co.jp/manga/offici... One of my favourite comics, part 2 \\^^// Actually, the fun is in spotting the Niffy's. #manga

Apparently you can protect ast2500 firmware... Time to read about that. >_< Attempting to make a gigabyte OEM board usable as an actual server ^^;

When a parody site nails it: newsthump.com/2026/02/16/d...

If you live here and wonder if that was an #earthquake, or you drank too much tea, coffee or that stuff that claims to be coffee from the mermaid shop... www.seis.bosai.go.jp This site should help you decide. Wobble or Tea/Coffee/Drunk? It didn't half light up on the afternoon of March 11th, 2011.

Today someone who claims to have done their research offered me some pittance for my domain. (5 letters, begins with A) I am contemplating whether to reply or not. I'm tempted to tell them that their research is sadly lacking as this domain belongs to a three-letter-agency and see what happens ^^;

Not the #RDX you were thinking of, which is bad for you. (1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine) Does not explode, probably poisonous if inhaled. Inside, typically there's a sata drive like this Toshiba MK6476GSX. in a rubbery mounting. Made by Tandberg! This is New-old-stock ^^; that drive has 1h on it.

www.theregister.com/2026/02/13/a... I assume the goal here is to destroy the competition, then profit from being a monopoly on Automated Synthetic Stupid (ASS).

www.newtonpress.co.jp/separate/bac... Yes, really, special edition.

Seen in the local combini for next week and #CatDay February 22nd >> February 14th. It is actually on my calendars are 猫の日 I must stock up on cute cat things!

#BlueProtocol ... The original was definitely better, you could actually EXPLORE and not get to the level cap in less than a week. And you could buy cute undies too. Not quite Hentai Kamen levels though. But men running around in tighty-whities was a thing... (This is from Star Resonance.)

www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsQt... \\^^// Look at that awesome beard!

For those that are fans of #StellarBlade which is a sort of Korean Nier Automata homage, www.goodsmile.com/ja/product/1... (I will resist, and order the Frielen instead...)

Wao, LACNIC's whois is stingy. 3rd query of the day, blocked for too many queries.

Today's #spam comes from #revolut The incompetent online bank that cannot find an account even given the numbers AND they charge you for their incompetence. From: <madeleine.skarming @revolut.com> ... New Business Account Executive They probably have an KPI of "mails sent to bought lists..."

Odakyu store in Shinjuku likes to have special events on 7F. This month is... #chocolate www.odakyu-dept.co.jp/shinjuku/val... Don't think about the price though, you'll depress yourself. I fancy this: ねこみゃみれ because CAT BAG! This even is usually really crowded with OLs.

Today's #spam comes from the server for: guyanapoliceforce.gy It's the usual ED/Canadian Pharmacy rubbish, but it does not give one warm fuzzies about the qwolity of policing there... 142.4.17.198 if you are wondering what to block.

For the Frilly Licorice Recoil fans ^^; event.amnibus.com/lycoris-reco... Pop-up shop in Loft Ikkybucket. #リコリコ

Today's #spam is brought to you by "example.com" yes, really. tranco-list.eu, always a reliable source of stupid thinks it is one of the top 200 domains in the internet. unbellyfeelable!

This is my day: "I hope this email finds you well." No, it does not. It inspired this: suno.com/s/cT622DywlJ... #AISlop. #AIGoblins ^^;

#anime collaborations can be interesting: www.hakuyosha.co.jp/hkykinishite... Yes, really. The marketing power of The Overcute is real.

Why, exactly, would anyone think a MENU is a good idea on a microwave? kadenfan.hitachi.co.jp/range/lineup... Oh, it needs wifi and an app too. Yes, sleek design, a massive knob. Features No, usability. >_<! Features BRING BACK BUTTONS! This #rant brought to you by that menu button over there...

Today's theme, besides #sausage, is... milkcorp.com/app/sausagel... This game, which actually appeared in an anime. Do you know which one?

Wao, #patlabor is 40. ezy.patlabor.tokyo It seems that this year will be really good for robot anime nostalgia. I wonder if there'll be a new Gundam ^^?

Today, #suno is generating songs of the Internet Sausage. It's complete nonsense, but strangely cathartic when you have to deal with stupid tickets that are just as much AI Slop. Strangely, it also mentioned the AI Barf Bucket.

Today's #spam comes from the evil daemon of a bygone age. QMAIL. Which leads one to have far too much fun with #suno suno.com/s/qXaVNch8Yq... It's a bit loud, though not anything like as loud and manly as the latest #Fueurschwanz album!

It is now so cold in Tokyo that Timtams are not liquid! This won't last that long, so enjoy it!

Today's fun comes from #suno and my tickets. Definitely cathartic... Bring the AI Barf Bucket! Set it on the floor! I’ve seen a thousand generated slops and I can’t take no more! It’s glitchy, it’s itchy, it-s poisoning the eye Lift your flagons to the light and let the pixels die!

Today's #spam comes from #GDPR #scam LUSHA.COM Who seem to want me to correct data they shouldn't even have on me FOR FREE so they can sell it. They play musical chairs with the domains too. Subject: Personal Information Notice (This is not an advertisement) From: Lusha <[email protected]>

Close-up of the AST2500 on the MX32-PH1, which ones do you think are the debug UART?

Today's #spam is from #pinterest who have not yet learned to confirm signups. So I have lots of spam for well, frankly, scary halloween makeup that probably is supposed to be "pretty." Second prize goes to "big5sportinggoods.com" who also don't do confirmations.

Rooster Fighter. It's like Hokuto no Ken meets Colonel Sanders ^^! www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfBW...

Talking of long running series' that the foreigners have never heard of: Chibi Maruko-Chan, who, like Edogawa Conan and Shinosuke, is destined never to grow old: www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZYq...

For those people that like #SAKAMOTO_DAYS... And drink more coffee than is good for them... www.bialetti.com/jp_jp/produc... It's real too,

What tastes just like a strawberry? Another Strawberry! I found this in the supermarket in Nakano and it is very pink! store.nissin.com/collections/... Complete aside, number 1 daughter was nearly called Ichigo. But it turns out that number 2 is the strawberry fiend.

Today is fun with #Hugo trying to get a sidebar to behave ^^! Now it has 9 entries, which is impressive when I only have 4 pages... No idea how I'm going to get images to workle ^^!

Hi, welcome to 2026, Why are people still running #qmail? ** STOCK ** qmail from the last millenium, when the imac was the new hotness, CRTs were a thing and hopefully The Beastie Boys were long gone never to be seen again. postfix 27 qmail 30 (undead) exim 31 sendmail 43

Oo Matron! This is the door lock on my NEC T110j... To access the CDROM drive on this _server_ you have to open it. Who seriously uses the CDROM drive (or DVDROM Drive) on a server?) Don't ask about the BMC, it's abandonware by Avocent.

The power of cute, on your keyring or keitai \\^^// Defo-chan + Pompomprin.
