This review has me excited to see Nathan Fielder's new documentary, You Can See Everything. I'm a big Fielder fan, and the only thing I've struggled to watch of his was The Curse. I ended up dropping out halfway through, but my wife stuck through it, and convinced me to watch the finale, which […]

I've been getting referrers from the American Osteopathic College of Radiology site to my tech related site, which to me, clearly suggests the site has been hacked for nefarious purposes. Based on what I'm seeing, I'm guessing a combo of referral spam and some sort of linking scheme.

For a second there, I thought China shipped their Pandas to the U.S. in TV boxes. 😅 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/se…

A person in a white full-body protective suit with blue straps stands facing a large cage that looks like a TV box showing a giant panda walking through grass. The image on the cage displays logos for Zoo Atlanta and a panda icon in the upper left, with text reading "Ping Ping" at the bottom right. The person appears to be viewing or working with the cage in an indoor facility.

You can now easily find and remove duplicate notes in @recollect. I added this because I ended up with a lot of duplicates after importing bookmarks and notes from various app. #PWA #IndieDev

Only a couple of #Birds this time. In this post, three from Aotearoa and one from Greece.

A soggy little shag near Nugget Point. This black and white bird is sitting on rocky ground in light rain, with out-of-focus water behind.

A kotare/sacred kingfisher sitting on a power line. It is intently looking to the right. It has some turquoise wings and a bit of turquoise on top of its head, but is otherwise dark grey, with feathers around its neck that look like a white collar.

A hoary-headed grebe at Lake Elterwater. It is swimming in the lake and is mostly grey with brown chest. Looks like it has slicked back its hair with gel.

People on iNaturalist tell me that this large feather came from a short-toed snake eagle. The feather is brown and white and on top of a rock, with short brown grasses beside the rock.
