Just walked the length of my street and discovered that only 3 buildings don't have roof damage from storm Eowyn. Mines is 1 of the 3 . I feel like I've won the lottery. Although, let's have a minute's silence for my fencing.

I really wish there was a viable alternative to Android and IOS. So many big tech companies seem to bake in spyware but we can't call it that, can we?

Installed Archlinux on my ageing Surface Pro from 2017 as Microsoft is dropping Windows 10 support soon. Delighted to say that it blows Windows out of the water, although the initial setup was tricky. Windows was borderline unusable as it was so slow. Arch is responsive and has no bloat.

Just watched this crane operator delicately lift an electrical substation expertly between 2 houses. Give the bloke a medal. I'm glad they don't need to access anything next to my house as my heart was in my mouth.

I've just discovered Bluesky's rather splendid labeller function. www.bluesky-labelers.io
Labels are a way to categorize content and users on BlueSky. They are part of the moderation tools but they can be do lots of interesting things like foster community.
