Super fun day marching with the bears in Dublin pride! 🌈 We started on the bus but then we walked in front of it the rest of the way.

Awww I just checked on the dogs and Timber is lying with his head out the cat flap, feels like he's watching for us to come home. 🥺

@Furball@tiggi.es @matt@oslo.town The best is when it's drinks you have to shake before you drink them, like orange juice, so there's liquid in the cap that leaks out and dribbles on your chest when you take a drink. 🙃

Bank holiday here today. We went to meet one of Rob's mom's friends for brunch and stopped at Marks & Spencers for picky bits for dinner later, sitting in the garden moving the patio furniture around to keep it in the shade. 🥵

Might be time for a medicinal G&T...

We're avoiding Rob's dad so we went to Tamworth for some retail therapy and a walk around the park.

Pretty sure people think one of us is Oran's dad until Rob gropes him. 😉

Had a blast marching with the bears at Birmingham Pride today, great to meet some of the people from my phone! Especially @deadliftbear@mas.to who I thirst-followed on Twitter a million years ago and then found out what a lovely guy he is.

We're away in Birmingham, new dogsitter was able to unlock the smart lock no problem last night but it didn't work this morning. 🤔

I was able to unlock it remotely but I don't want to have to do that every time. I'll see how it goes today but might have to resort to... the spare key. 😖

I have a habit of freezing leftovers in a glass dish and then topping them with mashed potatoes to make a cottage pie type thing. It's always tasty but usually I can't be bothered to make mash so often I'll make more than I need for one meal and freeze the mash on top of the already frozen leftovers.

Well, I didn't have any topped stuff ready and I couldn't be arsed to make mash, but I had some shop-bought garlicky gratin and I used that on top of some beef stew and omg it's good. 😋

User last week: "Can you help me set up an approval automation when someone submits this form I made?"

Me: "Sure, I'll do it when I get some time."

User today: "Ok I shared that form with the entire company, just wanted to confirm the automation is working."

Now he's shared the sad news I can be less vaguetooty. Rob's lovely mom died today. It was not unexpected, she's been dealing with dementia and Alzheimer's for a while, she had been in hospital for weeks, she was very frail and much of her brightness was diminished. We got a smile out of her on Tuesday and I will cherish that forever, along with the memories of all the fun times we shared over the years. We got on very well indeed. We shared the same taste in wine. And I really really like her son an awful lot. I will miss my lovely mudderinlaw.

This week has been exceptionally sucky. Not entirely, but mostly.

Rob had his first "official" event today, bear bus tour around Dublin with a few photo ops around the city with all the other bears.

Now we're chilling in a bar before we go to another bar for him to be presented to the gays of Dublin as Mr Bear Ireland.

@InfinityBear Oh I just remembered you need a possibly hard to get USB stick for the license to run unraid, has to be USB 2 and smallish storage and have a unique ID. Lots of the cheap ones you find online are cloned and have the same ID, and the decent brands don't make small USB 2 ones any more.

@InfinityBear I use Unraid on an old HP Gen 8 microserver. It's not free but it also wasn't expensive. Before that I was using a hacky version of the Synology OS but their storage format is proprietary and I got twitchy about losing stuff if the hardware I was running it on died. I have 4 big harddrives in there with redundancy if one fails, I think that's RAID 5. But your important stuff should also be backed up somewhere else, remember! If you only have one backup, you don't have a backup.

@kevinrenskers I'm not using any Google services apart from the Play store, and I didn't buy Google hardware. Limiting my exposure as much as possible. One thing that really surprised me was how awkward it was to use non-Google contacts and calendars, had to buy an app to sync them to the phone! 😳 Considering everyone bangs on about how open and customisable Android is... except when it comes to syncing your own data, apparently.

@kevinrenskers This post echoes my own feelings exactly. As a longtime Apple customer and an ex-Apple employee I am utterly disgusted by Tim Cook's actions and Apple's recent treatment of developers. I refuse to give Apple another penny. I stopped using any Apple services (iCloud, Music etc) as soon as I could after Tim Cook's donation, and I switched to an Android phone when it was time to upgrade after using nothing but iPhones since the 3GS. I know Google are as bad/worse, but I didn't expect any better from them. I thought Apple's values aligned with my own. If that was ever really the case, it's definitely not any more.
