A Virgin Media door to door salesman called a few months ago, trying to get me to switch. I asked if they supported IPv6 yet and he said “yes we do! and Netflix and Apple TV!”.


I use NetNewsWire on iOS / iPadOS, as a front end to a self hosted instance of FreshRSS. I host FreshRSS using docker on an old Raspberry Pi.


This looks brilliant. Happy to say I’ve just received the shipping notification. Can’t wait to try it out!

OMG


a mess


Worth noting that something heavy enough to trigger the seat occupancy sensor can still do you a lot of damage as it flies around the inside of a car in a crash. I put the seatbelt on around boxes and bags if they're on the seat.


I have child seat in my back seat secured to designated attachment points (not the seatbelt) and its heavy enough to warn me EVERY time. It's secured, not dangerous, and is a persistent false positive. Badly designed systems can also do harm by training people to ignore them or even actively circumvent them.


This. Even outside crash situations, a brusque movement could send things flying, distracting the driver enough to cause Bad Things.

Use the boot, people; at worst, put stuff under the seat, never above.


Thanks for the pointer to icloudpd[1]! Looks very useful. Do you actually run it on your Synology?

I've enabled the "Download originals to this Mac..." option in Photos, which then gets backed up using Backblaze, but obviously that takes a ton of space on my Mac that I could be using for something else.

> Do you actually run it on your Synology?

Yeah, it "just works" in Synology's built-in Docker support on their models with Intel CPUs.

I used to use the "download originals" option until my photo library started exceeding the storage in any of my Macs...


This explains how Principal Skinner was able to keep so calm


I would second this recommendation - I'm off to my local club this evening. I'm presenting Table Topics tonight.


So refreshing to visit a website that doesn’t have a cookie permission popup
