Somehow my gpg git commit signing, stopped working on my work MacBook. Couldn't figure out why but updated all the settings again and it started working. The big difference was gpg.program now had the full path instead of just gpg.

The police usually get a bad rep for corruption and abuse of power, and in the UK even for misogynistic and racist behaviour.
Blue Lights is a heartwarming, action packed series covering the life of "peelers" in an area in Belfast, that tells you otherwise.

My Labrador retriever sleeps in the kitchen-conservatory.
Almost every night he barks at foxes or cats trying to get into our garden or roaming in our garden or walking on our fence.
It wakes me up every time and I struggle to go back to sleep as I'm a light sleeper. 😭

Over the last few weekends I have been testing what I can do with the help of the AI assistants on VSCode with my paid subscription to GitHub copilot.
Managed to tackle so many tasks! 🧵

I tried github copilot code reviews. Apparently I'm living in the future according to the code review

Why are the seats on British trains so narrow? I can't find anyone who comfortably fits in them.

I walked more 6km with my dog and my Garmin fenix thinks I did only 4.5k steps. I am not sure what's going on here. The fenix has also started draining its battery a lot quicker than before.

Political violence is cancer.
Free speech has and has always had consequences.
