@_sorrengailll @Apple Finally. Fuck yes.

[Tim Kane (ⵜⵉⵎoⵜⵀⵢ ⴽⴰⵏⴻ) 🏳️‍🌈 @Tim_Rex_]

@_sorrengailll @Apple Actually.. shit I think I can turn that off.

lol @Qantas on board wifi can’t resolve https://t.co/Gxqwwe3nPW

All I want is their flight tracker, why would they even block their own budget subsidiary? @JetstarAirways

And yes, I have other ways.. but super lol

Fuck me… 4 years later this app is still such a buggy piece of crap..

@ArloSmartHome hooray, my battery kicks.. Default initialisation to 0xFF ?

@igvolow @adamgordonbell @mattgodbolt It was how those drivers self-described, they seemed happy with the change of pace, wasn’t my place to argue.

@British_Airways @MikeSalmon1402 £100 each is an obscene amount of money for seat selection. Are they arm chair recliners?

@autovate @SebAaltonen @thiojoe Heck, enterprise grade servers can take 5 minutes (and then some) just to POST… consumer hardware these days takes an age just to negotiate ram speed/profile

@MonashFODMAP app says I’m offline. I’m not.

@SkyNewsAust That says more about the cost of a pint than anything else. Who the fuck wouldn’t have a pint? Fuck it, I’ll have one in solidarity!

@andkon @zacbowden Imagine… deprecating W11 and re-committing to W10 😂

[Tim Kane (ⵜⵉⵎoⵜⵀⵢ ⴽⴰⵏⴻ) 🏳️‍🌈 @Tim_Rex_]

@tomwarren Microsoft has never done me a better service than to declare my CPU as unsupported for W11 from the outset..

It’s funny, I railed at this at the time.. but honestly W10 is just a better place to be right now

@decruz @SebAaltonen People might like to occasionally play games on their MacBook Neo outside of their primary purchasing objective

@tipheret That said.. if you don’t want to mess around.. nothing *wrong* with Synology really. Quite functional and my little ds218j has just done what I needed it to do (if slow)

[Tim Kane (ⵜⵉⵎoⵜⵀⵢ ⴽⴰⵏⴻ) 🏳️‍🌈 @Tim_Rex_]

@tipheret You can backup Time Machine to a regular SMB network share. For me that just happens to be on an old Synology, but it need not be

FWIW, I don’t think I would get another Synology tbh.. reliable though it has been, they’re overpriced and drive lock-in was a bit of a sour note

[Tim Kane (ⵜⵉⵎoⵜⵀⵢ ⴽⴰⵏⴻ) 🏳️‍🌈 @Tim_Rex_]

@rekdt Except the contacts almost never align quite right and the lightest jiggle causes one or both channels to drop out. Fucking hate.

@tim_cook Despite the lack of more recent rumours.. refreshed Apple TV pls

ICE officers stopped by our farm yesterday.

“We need to inspect your property for illegal aliens,” one of them said.

I replied, “Alright, but whatever you do, don’t go into that field over there.”

The officer in charge exploded.
“Mister, I have the authority of the federal government behind me!” he barked, reaching into his back pocket. He yanked out a badge and shoved it in my face. “See this fucking badge? This badge means I can go wherever I want on ANY land. No questions asked, no answers given. Am I clear? Do you understand?”

I nodded politely and said, “Be my guest.” Then I went back to my chores.

About ten minutes later, I heard screaming.
I looked up and saw six ICE agents running for their lives, being chased by my big, mean, old bull.
And with every step, that bull was closing in fast.
It looked like they were about to get gored for sure.

So I dropped my tools, ran over to the fence, and shouted at the top of my lungs:

“YOUR BADGE! SHOW HIM YOUR FUCKING BADGE!”
