He's almost certainly not as funny as he thinks he is. Remain. Cricket. Tea + the odd beer. Parkrun. Singing and dancing. Linux / AWS in the UK for SKA Observatory https://skao.int
Thinking of moving my domains' DNS hosting to deSEC at https://desec.io. They require enabling #DNSSEC. Any reasons this a bad idea? #DNS.
deSEC – Free Secure DNS

I thought I was listening to the latest Placebo album but it turns out it was something else. Had the same effect though.

Users just want their computer to work with minimal fuss. They get told to try a Linux distro because it’s safer and faster than the alternatives, and the Linux desktop is totally ready for primetime now!

“Why do my games launch on my secondary vertical monitor? Why can’t I just pick a default monitor?”

“We aren’t implementing that because it’s from Windows. If you want your applications to launch on your main monitor go and use Windows.”

@tdp_org This is legit customer-centered care. Deeply impressed (but not surprised) that you're doing this level of diligence before turndown. (Some teams don't even have the logging instrumented to answer questions about which clients are negotiating which ciphers!) Kudos, sir!

For "reasons" we still have 3DES enabled in our TLS config for www.bbc.co.uk and www.bbc.com (in the UK)-.

Just been looking at finally closing that off and it turns out 50% of the 4.2k daily requests using 3DES are from 1 IP in Leeds, requesting the exact same Newsround RSS feed with user-agent `ImageFlyer` which is a digital signage product apparently.

You don't care!
My MP voted against, presumably on religious grounds. Religion should stay out of the discussion.
