If the council maintained the road markings like they are supposed to then companies meeting their obligations to repaint markings would never make the news. It only gets picked up on when the original marking is basically non existent anyway.

I tried to sign it but I forgot that the UK isn’t in the EU anymore 😞

It only takes one person to fuck it up. I agree it’s stupid, but introducing a conflicting standard increases the chances of someone fucking it up in the name of progressiveness. Needless to say I killed off the main branch that someone one had tried to make to replace the master branch.

It’s all good and well until you start working in a repo that has both master and main branches for some reason, and it is not clear which is actually the master/main branch.

Belgian, so I’m surprised they were sensible enough to wear any kind of footwear

After encountering blackfly in Strasbourg last year and having legs covered in blistered bites I don’t have as much hatred for the tiger mosquito, at least the reaction to those bites is minimal

Why do Skodas have a heated rear windscreeen? To keep your hands warm while you push it.

(I’ve owned a few Skodas, they’ve all been good cars)

Play the Outer Wilds DLC, if you loved the base game, you will like the DLC too

I have lived in the UK (Gloucestershire towns, so quite rural) my whole life and I have seen 2 living hedgehogs, and one of them was in Germany. I have seen countless unliving hedgehogs on the road however. If you come expecting to see hedgehogs without specifically finding somewhere you know they will show up, you will probably be disappointed.

I did it slowly and it felt wrong enough that I know it would fuck my shit up if I did it quickly

I’ve never eaten the eye, is that actually a thing?

Angering the USB-IF

It doesn’t trigger the horn on UK cars, which I definitely appreciate. Although it was amusing to watch my partner jump every time I locked our hire car in the USA, the noise pollution is unnecessary.

PC in early 2024 for anyone wondering

9.30, which works well for me because I’m not awake enough/caffeinated enough before that to be able to be coherent or have much idea what I am doing that day. Although often I don’t really see the point in them when our team is so fragmented and working on loads of different projects.

I have prime until they bring in ads, and I’m using Apple TV+ but I have near enough a year of free trials through a credit card, buying an LG TV and my phone network provider. I use my cousin’s Disney+, my partner pays for crunchy roll but I don’t know how much that gets used.

Apple TV+ is definitely worth it, even paying the subscription. I use Amazon enough that the free delivery is sort of worth it, but I can usually get things cheaper elsewhere now.

I use Plex and sail the seven seas for everything I currently can’t get on one of the services available to me, and I expect to go more this way in future as streaming services start taking the piss
