I can't help but think a company doing this is irredeemable. Their understanding of business has drifted so far from what's healthy that I think they should be shut down, and regulators should do some long reflection on how to keep others from getting this bad.

I have to say this is one of the most insanely accurate cartoons of the incoming felon, liar, creep, asshole.

Cartoon depiction of the old Pez man candy dispenser, but in this drawing, it says Prez on the side and T's head is on top and instead of spewing pez, it spews LIES.

Trump would be so upset if this image and hashtag went viral. Please do not boost. 😉

My friend Nick makes his own advent calendar each year.

He may be a genius.

Four boxes of Tunnocks Tea Cakes, laid next to each other 2x2 on a table. Each box (which are yellow with red print, and a clear plastic viewing window) holds 6 tea cakes wrapped in foil. Handwritten labels have been stuck on the boxes above each cake, with the numbers 2-24 in a random order. There was a number 1 but that has been cut out already - a knife and a teacake are sitting on the table above the boxes.

Setting up Kali Linux on a laptop as a dual boot and when flashing the iso to a thumb drive windows stripped out half the files because it thought they were malware.

Does windows defender not know ethical hacking is a thing?

I use AI a fair bit for my day job, and recently came across 1minAI which allows me to access multiple AI models at once from one place. Deffo worth a look if you need to use AI regularly.

It’s all well and good Amazon using the Royal Mail for parcel deliveries, but it would help if the Royal Mail were actually capable of delivering things within the timescales promised.

If you haven't tried Hacking with Swift+ yet, check out the free three-day trial – you don't need a credit card, so it won't automatically become a paying subscription. Even better, I've reset the trials for everyone who tried it previously, so *everyone* can get a trial again.

My biggest wish for WWDC24 is that they don't show a video of a few dozen developers being crushed by an industrial hydraulic press to create an AI coding assistant for Xcode.

Combining #Aqara humidity / temp sensors with #HomeAssistant to monitor the levels in terrariums. This gives me the ability to have a nice dashboard and also send notifications / announcements on Alexa when levels are too far out of normal.
