Just be really REALLY careful when you read anything from or a domain with Chrome or Google in the name about exciting new standard web APIs. Much too often what they are promoting is effectively a proprietary API that other browser vendors have serious concerns about.

Edited so as to not tar web.dev with the same brush as the rest, as I genuinely think they are trying to do the right thing. You still need to be careful reading it, though, as they don't always succeed.

Please, for the love of god, if you're doing something worldwide and there's a deadline, _post the time in UTC_. FFS, why do I need to say this again?

It's absolutely wild how huge swathes of 60s Doctor Who are completely gone, but the unbroadcast pilot that they didn't like survived to be watched today.

NO-NUT NOVEMBER IS HERE, and this is a time for the internet's most hideously joyless people to recruit vulnerable young men into a month of zero orgasms and an Incredible Amount of exposure to the sort of ideologies that can end up separating these already vulnerable young men from their real-life support networks and indoctrinating them further into the Awful No-Cumming Cult, and so to counter this ridiculous-but-no-less-harmful-for-it farce it's time for Dan to be Horny On Main for the entire month of November and that means AN UPDATE TO THE GUMBALL MACHINE THREAD

I am UPDATING THE GUMBALL MACHINE THREAD because I remembered a Thing I Witnessed in my youth, and it's come to my attention that some of my followers aren't from the North of England but instead FOREIGN PARTS, and might be completely unaware of the knickers-for-a-nicker vending machines that festooned Blackpool promenade dispensing sexy undies for a £1 coin.

HERE. HERE, YOU HORNY NORTHERNERS. LOOK AT IT. LOOK AT IT AND SPEND THE NEXT HOUR CLEANING THE SPUNK OFF YOUR CEILINGS.

Phwoarrrrr, eh?

OH: I’ll do […] in 10 minutes. Also, those are ADHD minutes, which means they might range from a few seconds to several hours each.

On the night of November 13th we set fire to 6 Ernst Concrete trucks at 553 Seaboard Industrial Drive. Ernst is pouring the foundation for Cop City. This site, like so many others, is completely unguarded.

Front-pouring cement mixing trucks have large rear engine compartments which can be accessed without opening any doors. We placed incendiary devices and kindling near the engine block, the fuel tank behind it, and the double rear tires. We encourage further experimentation with incindiary placement.

There was a time when contractors were afraid to take on this project. If we can make the cost of the contract greater than the profit, they will drop it. Sneaking around at night is fun and burning shit is cool.

Below is the full list of Ernst sites sourced from [https://ernstconcrete.com/locations]

it's incredible how microsoft made a very sizable chunk of people fear updates like 13th century peasants feared the drought

Apparently a few days ago the Let's Encrypt API returned certificates which have not had the structure of three certificates (cert, intermediate, root) separated by an empty line (i.e. being able to split by double newline to get the three parts).

That's kinda weird because it happened across several servers over a span of over 24h (less than 48h tho) for four of my certificates (probably all that were renewed in that span) and it was reverted to its old state apparently.

I don't log the certificate return values, but I would've loved to see what was in there ​
If anyone knows anything, please tell me, I'm curious.
