Doing a bit of house keeping and moving my Nimbus Notes instance from notes.mmn.on.ca to notes.oh.mg. I’m also trying to work out how I’m going to merge whatever else I intend on doing over to the oh.mg domain, mainly including my plume instance

Well I learned something rather interesting today, if my servers can’t contact their Object buckets, it really crashes in a spectacular fashion. Might pump up the cache time out to something rather high

Rachety Rachet - Fuck knows why I went for this title

I love how @FactoryandCo charges 24€ for a cremated creature slab (this couldn’t have been a cow in its existence), a bit of milk, and some cheeseless cheese fries and willingly sends that out the door as a job well done. It was so vile the only the bin could handle it.

Nothing more exciting than Google Pay freaking out and selecting random cards when you tap (ignoring the actual card you chose) to that one bank card you no longer hold physically that has money behind it 🙄

I’m really loving the @invizbox 2 and InvizBox Go with @ProtonVPN, between the InvizBox block list and Proton’s Netshield the amount of trackers and ads blocked is insane. The speed as well is exceptional, using an app on my computer always lagged but I can stream no problems 🙌

Hey @fedex thanks for making me wait at home all day because “you didn’t have my door code”, apparently in 2021 there is no possible way to contact anybody by telephone, if only there was some kind of magical way to call using a small handheld device when not at a phonebox 🤷‍♂️

I’m probably more vexed by this considering I know how it’s going to go, the driver is going to end their shift put some bullshit about me not being home, while being nowhere near the arrondissement I live in, and then I have to waste another day and slog up to their depot.

The definition of end of day is questionable at best, but clearly 18h was not only the promised time but it’s clearly the end of the day for some people #rude

Well lol, if you can’t make it on time, just change the goal posts : Scheduled delivery: Monday, January 18, 2021 by end of day

Scheduled delivery: Monday, January 18, 2021 by 18:00

Stayed in all day, curfew is about to start, and I’m somewhat vexed that the delivery has still not bothered to show up while I’ve been sat in my flat all day.

I think we can also confirm that yet again my sleeping patterns are back to April 2020 style “time doth not matter”

I also spent about an hour talking myself out of buying a new domain, so at least there is progress in my 2h du mat compulsive purchases. Except that time I bought a load of gopher themed domains, hem, last night at the same time

The lj.gl server needed to reboot for some updates, plus it was going slow as shit so I figured two problems solved here

Fitbit support I find is a bit “have you tried contacting somebody else about a problem that stems from our buggy product?”, practically the Uber way of customer care, wear them down until they give up

Lolz, remembering that time I created acme.lu

When I changed Freeboxes I lost some of my file areas, but thanks to the Internet Archive I was able to recover the Commodore Free mirror. So check it out !

Because I’m a gluton for punishment, I’ve setup a Plume instance on lj.gl

Also, before you ask she’s upset that I wouldn’t let her break in to the appartments next to ours

Drinking with your cat in 2020 is not ideal, when you get a bit down about having no social contact, the response you really don’t need is a hiss and a sharp swat 😅

An official statement from OH.MG

And to be brutal, I’m kind of glad Kent smells of piss right now, it’s the least they deserve

Incidentally, already holding citizenship with a commonwealth country still gets you better access than these blue passports they produce in Poland by a Dutch company. Because something about taking their whatevers back and freedrrms

I’m not concerned about getting kicked out, but I do have three options available, each one equally as expensive and time consuming. Not one of them includes going anywhere near the UK, and quite frankly I’ll probably renounce my UK citizenship because of this farce if I go via option nationality
