I'm digging these cheap macro pads. Started with a 3 key "Copy/Paste/Delete" one as a joke about my current job, quickly discovered I loved it 🤣.
Upgraded to a 12 button, dual dial model for around a tenner.

Combined with Autohotkey I can do all sorts. Global Teams mute button is my favourite.

I'm probably very very late to the party but #Tailscale is incredible for uber easy VPN back to home, including for extending netflix family to relatives who live elsewhere. Took ten minutes to set up on my pi-hole R Pi box...

I am starting to realise that all this time, trainspotting was just a code-hobby for Autistic people to form clandestine self-help / revolutionary groups, with flasks of tea, sammiches and sturdy raincoats.

Hey FediFriends

I need your help. I started this self-hosted, GoToSocial instance, back in April.

NATO can't protect Europe from Russia because the US has defected. The EU can't because UK is no longer a member. The UN can't because of Russia & US.

We need a body with Europe + UK but not Russia + US, with existing admin infrastructure.
