Kind: Notes
Short content: a post or status update with just plain content and typically without a title.

The comprehensive @id3 v2 system for #MP3 metadata doesn't seem to have an "explicit content" flag. I'm using an experimental XRAT frame (with a '1' or '0') for now, but I wonder if anyone's already "solved" this in a better way?

How did it take me years of working-from-home before I thought to install one of these in my desk? Brilliant.

Note for Future Dan: if you want @Firefox's picture-in-picture (popout video) mode to be available for videos of less than 45 seconds, the setting you need is media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.video-toggle.min-video-secs...

Tesco Abingdon's phone menu system is diabolical, Dan discovers.

Today is "superhero day" for nursery/reception, so I continued my effort to straddle the line between being a fun #parent and an embarassing parent line by dropping the kids off like this...
-
Dan overengineers a geocache... so it looks like a sign!

My @FreshRSS installation is the first, last, and sometimes only place I go on the Internet. When a site doesn't have a feed but I wish it did, I add one using middleware (e.g. danq.me/far-side-rss).
Here's to the next 20 years of my #RSS addiction. -
When do I #blog? A breakdown of my top four #indieweb content types - articles, reposts, checkins and notes - by month.

I made a graph to show how the number of large hand tools stored in our garage has changed this last year but I forgot to label the axes.

Ahead of schedule on work project. Invited to 2nd COVID jab next week. Spent half of day working on laptop in sunny garden. Parcel arrived from @LEGO_group with Everyone Is Awesome model (pictured).
Today was a Good Day. -
Just learned Tuca & Bertie is getting a 2nd season (thanks Adult Swim, no thanks Netflix). Super excited. In anticipation I'm rewatching season 1 of this sort-of "upbeat feminist Bojack Horseman" and (re)loving it.

Hey @LloydsBank! 2009 called and asked if you're done sending your customers links to unencrypted HTTP endpoints yet. How do you feel about switching this to a HTTPS link rather than relying on an interceptable/injectable HTTP request?

The Last Supper
Dan receives an invitation to 'the last supper' before Robin begins his rowing expedition.

I'm On Fire
In 2020 at @automattic my team, Alpha, forked into teams Fuel and Fire. But it took 'til now for me to notice that our internal systems use something like the string "${jobTitle} on ${teamName}". Which leads to THIS excellent title.

Can you tell me how to get in touch with your technical/security team @firstdirecthelp? Apparently my report about a vulnerability in your website contains characters that aren't "valid" for your sucky feedback form... but it doesn't say which ones.
