Who needs a hug? I'm offering!

Oh yeah, here, have some birbs in these trying times.

You know how elves are always seen as thin and weak?

Well..I don't think that should be the trope anymore!

So, it seems to be agreed that a balloonie sharkgirl is good. Now..I need a name, and what type of shark..?

In slightly better news, I have found a way to disable both Pocket and the advertising for a Firefox account, without needing to build Firefox from source.

It still has the code in there, but..it's better than nothing.

In "about:config":

Set "extensions.pocket.enabled" to false
Set "identity.fxaccounts.enabled" to false

Restart your browser.

Aww, I think I've found it!

I'm just feeling a little bit grumpy, I need something to cheer me up.

Come on, New Zealand is more prepared than us! They must be looking at us like we're out of it!

Emergency Management planning for private people should not be a four letter word. If something terrible were to happen, you would panic.

Yes, I am dragging most the UK population with this, but..I've stopped caring.

Would a Balloonie Shark, who runs server stuff be a good character to add?

So yeah, balloonie shark. :P

Okay..okay, time for something more cheerful.

Bad news is..I couldn't get the buttons to fit flush on the Raspberry Pi case, despite me trying.

Good news is that at least, my initial idea of getting the power button out of an awkward place still holds out..so..yay?

Since when did we end up in an episode of Black Mirror? I know it's not Charlie Brooker writing it, as his writing is better than whoever's writing this one!

Hey, uh..anyone know what's going on around here? I've noticed some wires going missing and squeaking too, before hearing water splash about.

So, I'm working on my Raspberry Pi setup more, and I have some push-buttons to use for turning them off safely.

Now I'm mounting them to the cases. Anything to reduce energy use and help the enviroment a little bit.

Thing is, I need a drill for that purpose..so I ordered one.

What did ProJared do? I'm..very lost. And hungry.

I hate being proven right. Ugh. Not only that, both parties in Venezuela are just as monstrous, attacking peace protestors. Oh man...

Because you're a commentator for a sport where people beat each other up until they get CTE. The right seems to like that kind of stuff.

So, ARM's deisgner being trans should point out that trans people always existed.

A lot of the Linux community seems to have bought in to Linus saying that ARM is the future. Um..not quite.

A big stumbling block is that all software needs to be rebuilt for ARM. I doubt someone like Microsoft would do it without going EEE on it. It's part of the company's DNA, as far as I know.

That's not to say that ARM has no use whatsoever. For low power and cheap systems, like Nettops, and low power servers, it can work very well! (Raspberry Pis used for servers are proof of that.)

So, ARM still has a place, and a future. Will it take over X86? I don't think so. Will it replace it in certain areas? Certainly! I argue that's the point of ARM.

Not to mention that ARM was created by a transwoman..really! Look it up!
