A few times since I started journalling I’ve reflected on how much information in a given day is lost due to it not being “interesting” enough to be written down - and - how the information that makes it through the filter of my own viewpoint could be interpreted by other people who don’t live within my context.

In short: if post-apocalyptic humans have nothing other than my journal to rebuild the collective knowledge of our species… we’re truly fooked. They’ll know the horrors of Microsoft Teams or how friendly the bus driver was.

But for more important things, it made me really re-evaluate just how challenging the maintenance of our collective knowledge is and how as time goes on it gets harder and harder to correctly parse the original source ourselves: instead relying on the interpretations of others who had a closer frame of reference to ours - but - a lens of their own that we have to account for to.

I’m also in the market for an egg vibrator, apparently it makes for a really good breakfast if you scramble them before cracking into the pan.

It’s a purgatory of sorts.

• Can’t sleep because I can’t stop thinking.
• Been awake so long: now I’m hungry
• Have a snack, return to bed.
• Now I need to go to the bathroom.
• Return to step one.

walter is clearly saying something and is right of center framing, take this down immediately /s

I think they’re winding down the project unfortunately, so I might have to get with the times…

It’s a mix, I put two screenshots together. On the left is my monthly bandwidth usage from CPanel on the right is Awstats (though I hid some sections so the Robots/Spiders section was closer to the top).

It’s super weird for sure. I’m not sure how the bots have managed to use so much more bandwidth with only 30k more hits than regular traffic, I guess they probably don’t rely on any caching and fetch each page from scratch?

Still going through my stats, but it doesn’t look like I’ve gotten much traffic via any API endpoint (running WordPress). I had a few wallpapers available for download and it looks like for whatever reason the bots have latched onto those.

12,000 visits, with 181 of those to the robots.txt file makes way, way more sense. The ‘Not viewed traffic’ adds up to 136,957 too - so I should have figured it out sooner.

I couldn’t wrap my head around how large the number was and how many visits that would actually entail to reach that number in 25 days. Turns out that would be roughly 5.64 quinquinquagintillion visits per nanosecond. Call it a hunch, but I suspect my server might not handle that.

Phew, so I’m a dumbass and not reading it right. I wonder how they’ve managed to use 3MB per visit?

Ooh… can I print my next smartwatch?

I think I started watching the first couple of episodes and then stopped, can’t remember why. Might need to revisit it!

“Your honor, my archive of Linux ISOs were acquired under the pretense that they were ‘publicly available’ and the copyright holders didn’t ‘opt-out’ using the ‘up-for-grabs.txt’ standard I invented.”

In an insecure love triangle with Mallory.

Sounds like iDescriptor needs a “happy customers”-style quote section on their GitHub.

They could have put php up the top where it belongs.

Samsung’s keyboard history is sketchy as. Even when you select everything and ‘delete’ it from the history you can STILL PASTE. Like dude. I know some people find keyboard history useful but I don’t want it, just a huge security risk.

The intro to Burn Notice will play in my head whenever I see someone wearing sunglasses. Super cosy for sure, such a great cast.

Loved that show. From memory it started getting weird in later seasons but then wrapped up in a semi-satisfying way? Might have to… starts looking for the box set

“David has requested your public key, do you accept?”

“Oh, and a chocolate croissant, please, thanks! … and uh, I’m so incredibly sorry about last time,”
