  Any bitwarden CLI users should read this and follow the advice ASAP. It doesn't look like a huge breach of individual account security on first read, but I'm very much not an expert and would defer to those who know what they're talking about. https://community.bitwarden.com/t/bitwarden-statement-on-checkmarx-supply-chain-incident/96127

  Looks like we have an independent candidate standing locally, one who claims 'we are awake. We are not fools'. He starts well - NHS improvement, ending period poverty - and then we get to pledge two (end Nation of Sanctuary) and it gets worse from there onward in terms of the "too swivel-eyed for Deform" meter. The last pledge is about schools and proclaims "people first, budgets second" and that's sheer fantasy.

  The new Dome Keeper characters are certainly a different way of playing the game. The infiltrator is an agile ninja that uses a grappling rope to climb rapidly and throws kunai and shuriken to mine(!), and the beastmaster is Doctor Octopus' good twin that uses the extra arms to climb around, all while commanding an army of catgoblins to ferry resources home and (chaotically) mine for you. The latter is, of course, my favourite. 🙂

  No, not now, not ever. Go away and stop bothering me. Everything is so needy that it's becoming difficult to just perform a simple task like opening a new tab without some process trying to steal your attention.

  First time I've heard of this method of generating random numbers and it was via a comment on an Ars Technica post about a Right to Repair law. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lavarand

  This story about "rogue chippies" has the great line 'The three which did not list a species told the BBC they were "normal fish" or "white fish"'. As this excludes abnormal fish, I'm out if luck if I want a wing or drumstick then? Boo! https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cvg0337n0y1o

  Replacement board for the tiny Lenovo machine that formerly ran Home Assistant is on the way; at 20 quid it was cheaper than replacing the entire machine so now I just have to hope that nothing hanging off the board is stuffed. Replacing it *should* be a trivial swap but we'll see.

  I don't have Elden Ring, but if this mod gets finished then I might have to buy it as Morrowind is one of my favourite games of all time. (Apologies for YT link) https://youtu.be/ed6kKLd3Fso?si=fjB7uFBZt_TxgJ93 There's also OpenMorrowind and it is awesome, particularly given the scope of the game, so to have two options to play MW on modern systems so long after the original release is incredible. 🙂

  Absolutely hysterical that the SNP leader has said he'll talk to all parties except Nigel's Grift. They are stamping their tiny feet in rage. 😁

  Justin Broadrick's music has been a constant companion since the release of 'Streetcleaner' in 1989, but this EP was absolutely sublime. The first track, on the original release, is one of the few bits of my random/extreme CD collection that my late partner loved rather than tolerated. https://jesu.bandcamp.com/album/opiate-sun-ep-remaster-2026
