I've stayed here because some people I enjoy reading and interacting with aren't active elsewhere but it's got to the point where even that can't justify staying. See you on threads or mastodon.

I dread shopping the moment it's clear they're using @Shopify . Shopify knows that Guernsey isn't part of the UK - correct - but then their default flows/UX does nothing to encourage UK businesses to enable it. Shopify's popularity is meaning less availability of goods here.

A very cool gift arrived today. Chroma Grid by @PeyloW and team. This is the first physical media I have with one of my ZX Origins fonts on it!. Thank you!

You can see what drivers are installed on your system and who they are from using including filtering out Microsoft ones. My machine is just hardware providers (AMD, Intel, Oculus, Nvidia & PreSonus). Or use driverquery.exe /v in the console.

Great. Latest update of Windows now has Explorer constantly grouping files by date & no longer allowing Ctrl-L to go to the address bar. FFS. How can Windows be making such good progress with Terminal, clipboard, settings while making massive missteps with Start and Explorer?.

I did consider perhaps the back of the ballots were meant to have the address rotated but that wouldn't explain why they were also wrong on the instructions. I thought maybe I should fold it but it would clearly move around enough to no longer be visible in the window.

My favourite part about voting in the UK election by post is how the instructions indicate to me that my piece of paper should magically change orientation to correctly fit the envelope while the printing stays upright. Am I missing something here!?
