Guide Dogs UK has a very important announcement for anyone with tattoos, a beard, an unconventional hairstyle, etc. You are needed to play with puppies.
"We’re issuing a national appeal for volunteers with distinctive characteristics to help socialise the next generation of guide dogs. Our new research shows that 1 in 5 (20 %) of dog owners revealed their dogs have shown signs of fear or confusion when encountering unfamiliar physical attributes." https://bit.ly/3PgRTOc

It was overwriting the permission and owner for the new log file and Docker didn't fall over, just stalled the app writing the same error message over and over
...
So when I checked stuff was arriving in the new logs it looked like it was

Sigh
I just re-read this article I wrote a while back.Still quite pleased with it.
Don't call me "left"
Guess who turned on log rotation and brought down the machine he was trying to stabilise?
Annoyed with myself about that
I'm taking a few weeks off FB and Xhitter because they eat my life
I want to make things that make me feel better instead of filling my head with nothing
I'll still post on Mastodon a little, because it's not designed to make me into an addict.
@mojo it could be an engineered shortage to drive prices up with immigration being used to distract from greed and manipulation yanno.
@Radical_EgoCom @slowmart iirc in the UK doing that is illegal because the powers that be don’t want sympathy with the strikers.

Recent news on Angela Chao
RIP to Angela Chao, who accidentally reversed into a shallow pond in her Tesla. She called her friends to help, and they arrived. But... none of them knew how to open the doors.
This shouldn't have happened.
Study, LLM, racism, hypothetical death penalty discussion
@HauntedOwlbear how unsurprising.

New Green Plenty article:
"What next? How do we start building a better world?"
I wrote a poem back in 2018 called "Darling Albion"
Next time someone says I'm anti-British I will send it to them and they probably won't get it.

I see rich 'non doms' are angry at Jeremey Hunt stealing Labour's policy to end the tax break... and some are now threatening to leave the county.
To my mind this is a bit like squatters complaining to a landlord that the imposition of rent means they will leave & find somewhere else to live...
I say good riddance to them if they don't want to contribute taxes to the maintenance of a country that due to their malign influence is falling apart.

If seeing Biden both facilitating genocide in Gaza and destroy public health, allowing Covid to cause a mass disabling event, isn't enough to show how dangerous Vote Blue No Matter Who is, I don't know what will convince them. Right wingers are dangerous regardless of whether they have an R or a D after their name.

Spartacus
#US is showing clear signs of pulling out of #ProjectUkraine and this has panicked all #EU puppets to an unprecedented degree.
#LePetitRoi is suffering Napoleonic Syndrome and dreams of wars with Russia, and #FrauGenocide, as she crosses the boundaries of paranoia, wants to develop new weapons systems overnight.
All US puppets in #Europe have become dangerous for peace.
