Rare to find unanimity in this space - but pleasing to see that even LGBA now publicly accepts it's an anti-trans group.

"You know my methods, dear Watson," said Holmes. "Tell me what you can deduce about the two women on the other side of the street."
"They are of similar age, and walk arm in arm, so they are good friends."
"Very good." Holmes extended his arm. "Shall we?"
I took his arm. "Yes."

Today the LGB Alliance is holding a conference in a government-owned building.โ At GAY TIMES, we would like to make our position clear in regard to the LGB Alliance and its toxic stance.
Put simply, there is no queer community without trans people instagram.com/p/CVSts2lNFvg/

Hey @grhmc - are there any good books on/around Nix/NixOS which a colleague could buy to learn more?

Seems to me that you are discounting the amazing powers of Paint. Just talk to @Jimllpaintit for some tips.
I suppose, given how utterly farcically mismanaged the whole thing has been, it *could* have been a fucktonne worse. But still, that was one of the worst things I've heard in a while from them.

No git commit message ever:
โช๏ธ"made worse"
โช๏ธ"broke"
โช๏ธ"stopped it from working"
So "improvement", "fix" and "made it work" do not suffice as git commit messages either.

I think github actions are a tad better than gitlab-ci pipelines; but it's a close-run thing :D I have some projects on GH and some on GL.
I decided to move my /boot around, rebuilt my nixos config, rebooted, and was strangely disappointed that nothing went wrong.

What I particuarly enjoyed was that yes, changes needed to be spaced out so their SSO etc didn't cock up. As such those 16 password changes took around 45 minutes in total. Always good to charge the client for an hour of wasted time.

I had a client once who, once a month, forced a password change with a 15 password reuse limit. So once a month I logged in, set my password to 'Insecure01' thence 'Insecure02' onward to 'Insecure15' and then back to my good password which I never knew because yay password safe.

Sadly due to lack of sales the behind the scenes volumes of Myth Makers documentaries will likely be discontinued. The Tom Baker volume has only received 200 orders, a far cry from the 1,000 sales needed to make it viable. If you want more, buy. timetraveltv.com/search
