Is it me, or is this guy in this installation video wiring neutral to line and line to neutral? 🤔 // @galooph

I bought this Swiss chronograph on eBay about 20 years ago. The crystal was cracked and it was a bit dirty, but it just worked so I wore it a lot. Earlier this year the crown fell out, so I finally sent it for repair, service and new crystal. I'm super pleased […] [Original post on tooting.ch]

Jesus. From a LinkedIn post. I'm pretty sure it's AI generated, was posted as a joke and is not a real child's drawing. I really *hope* it's not a real child's drawing. Either way, I just can't even...

A child's drawing where they have inserted Claude in their family picture between the child (me) and "dad". Caption reads "My family is me, mum, dad and Claude. Claude is dad's favourite."

Oh dear. It's not getting better quickly... We're now Wednesday, the software update was Saturday. 😬

Week-end upgrade going well then, Co-Op Bank! (I would not want to be in IT for them right now. They've just been bought too.)

Hello customer,

Unfortunately, we’re having technical issues with the planned upgrade to our digital banking systems.

This means Business Online Banking, Financial Director Online and our Business Banking App are still unavailable.

Cooking with a sea view. Even though the kitchen is right at the back of the house, the serving hatch means you have a nice view from the hob. 😅

Playing with #OpenCode custom skills. It's pretty straightforward and I think I see a way to streamline quite a lot of dev tasks with something like this! opencode.ai/docs/skills I'll definitely make a video of this tomorrow, when I'm on my proper work computer. #AI #Drupal

Mammoth Wasp rescued this morning. I love these, gentle giants, won't sting you unless you're a beetle. 😂 She tried to take a drink and got it wrong. Silly thing, there are safe bee drinkers all around the pool. 🙄 High winds make safe landings difficult.
