Yeah, the real struggle my kids deal with is dyslexia. But I know that even a dyslexic van be bitten by the reading virus so I still have hope.

Jup, Caileeh for sure.

Yes. But I van imagine my children being clueless. English is our third language but I think that’s not the issue. They just haven’t read enough. They are consumers and aren’t accustomed to active reading.

Sops for LinkedIn bit different

I had one of the best bosses but still quit the job because the work/life balance was terrible.

I still meet up with my former boss occasionally.

You’re right. That’s annoying. Spoiler tags are useless if they’re platform dependant.

Hmmm. That’s not how you spoiler

!It’s like this!<

Is a self hosted docker different from this?

You juggle all you want in any park. Just don’t make it weird. Of there are tombstones in said park, it’s not for juggling.

So, one one hand you have a repairability index that indicated how repairable certain devices are.

A bit lame, I agree, and a copy of the French system.

But there’s also this knowledge platform that is installed by the same law that unites producers, suppliers, employees, environmental organisations and al our regional governments (we have a few of those…)

Every 6 months they’ll have to report and evaluate repairability and make suggestions to improve legislation. The law is constructed in such a way that it can easily be adapted and expanded.

Every quarter they’ll evaluate how producers and importers comply to the legislation.

So, yes. It’s not much for now but it is a certain step in the right way. They’re careful not to overregulate and will evaluate and evolve.

Also, it makes no sense installing legislation if there is no apparatus to maintain and sanction.

I’m mildly optimistic because our government is seldom caught being thoughtful and considerate 🙈

I agree. But you have to start somewhere. The guideline has been converted into legislation in Belgium since last week.

The Repair cafés run by volunteers are now formal repair hubs that are subsidized and will be involved in building up knowledge for further legislation.

That’s why we have the EU to get thatbstuff sorted.

Not piracy but a right to repair law would do just fine. https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20240419IPR20590/right-to-repair-making-repair-easier-and-more-appealing-to-consumers

Got laid once because of my veiny arms so, not only nurses like them.

I had a teacher once that got turned on by veins. I found out after graduating because I met her at a bar and she was horny as hell from seeing my forearms. I use to climb a lot so veiny arms are part of the deal. So, a compliment about my veiny forearms was… special.

Bitwarden does my OTP as well. You don’t need the servers for that?

I have my password stored as a QR in an envelope. With instructions for Bitwarden. Never heard about the dead man option.

Bitwarden is dirt cheap. I can never host and be as reliable as they are for that price.

‘Mat Damon’ and ‘Mohammed Jihad’ had my wife in tears.

I’ve got your back.
