Software developers complaining about legacy systems should be forced to retrofit/renovate old buildings until they realize how spoiled they are 😀

Rewatching dune before watching dune 2 and it's dumber than I remembered it.

Microsoft reading the news, seeing all the hate against lgbtq kids being abused by their parents and thinking, hey that's a great business opportunity for AI!

My iPhone case broke yesterday, using the phone without a case for the first time. It really is terribly designed, it's so slippery I can't rest it on anything. Can barely rest it in my palm without it sliding off

I never would've guessed that I would have strong opinions on spades but here we are 😆
If you do any sort of digging/gardening you owe it to yourself and your back to get one of these https://www.fiskars.com/en-gb/gardening/products/shovels-spades/ergonomic-pointed-spade-grey-1066708

Chickens got a bit of leftover buns, never seen them this excited by food before 😀

@ivory I broke the client, no idea how, possibly by tapping the image just as it scrolled or animated something.
I don't really expect you to fix it, just a heads up 😀

The situation with Microsoft Entra groups is such a mess. Not being able to nest m365 groups and not being able to have dynamic security groups is just a pain. It feels a lot like Microsoft has just given up on the absolute fundamentals.

Got my EU browser prompt today and picked Safari, because of ad blocking.

Hard to select a default browser now since nobody has had a chance to try the non-webkit versions yet

Called HP support today
Me: I have a question about power adapter, what info do you need?
HP:serial please
Me:gives serial
HP: address?
Me: why?
HP: so we can send you a new one
Me: gives address
HP: have you tried another adapter?
Me: no but it doesn't charge unless I put tension on the cable.
HP: yeah that's the adapter, you'll have a new one in the mail in 2-3 days. Anything else?

11/10 support experience. Didn't even have to shorten it, it really was this brief and surprising 😀

Martin is very opinionated about my position. If my legs aren't in the right way he'll shuffle around trying to to move them into place for his sleeping #DogsOfMastodon

Figured out today that the latest oracle jdbc driver is broken generates spurious failures. 100% reproducible so that's good at least 😀
Fun day tomorrow figuring out which version is safe to use

Java EE is so easy to work with. Trying to migrate a soap service so far all I've had to learn is
Parts of the soap spec
How the old javaEE spec relates to it
How the new JavaEE spec relates to it
Which open source framework is actually used for the implementation and which parts of it are used
A bunch of classloading bullshit

And this is to keep some old apps working as they currently do, it doesn't actually provide any value whatsoever

Fun fact, an application server is just a couple of hundred libraries in a trench coat without documentation

We really should have a rule in IT. If a security vendor has a path traversal bug the government should seize the company and shut it down. The CEO should probably be shot into the sun just for good measure

Had a brief look at the passkeys preview in #MicrosoftEntra and got stuck. It says I need to register an aaguid for the authenticator app but the only way to get the guid is to register the app as an auth method?

I get that it's a preview but usually a preview is a checkbox and not magically guessing the correct guid 😂

Exciting morning news in Sweden. IF Metal (large union) is calling a strike at tesla service centers because they refuse to agree to collective bargaining.

For some reason the birds really like the concrete part of our barn, I guess because it's warmer there so any chance they get they sneak in there. Yesterday we were working in there and left the door open so naturally one bird had to sneak in and see what we were doing.

Also pictured is the original electrical wiring from I guess the early forties. For some reason we opt to not use it 😆

I don't have anything real to say about the Israel/Palestinian conflict that others haven't said better so here's something dumb instead.

It's quite fucked up that the idea of "real estate developers helping hamas so the developers can get some lucrative contracts on the newly claimed land" isn't a totally implausible thought

Went to feed the chickens this morning and one was missing. Found it on the roof, confused and apparently too afraid of heights to jump down again 😂 had to herd it through the barn to a section with more shelves so it could get down #chickens #HensOfMastodon

#Starfield tip, if you do any missions requiring stealth, make sure to leave your companion behind 😀
So many reloads sneaking around in vents when my companion run around and alert the whole place and start shooting
