This one's for you, @TrellidorSA ... This morot was replaced three months ago. Waking up trapped behind your security shutter is not a fun way to start the day. Split pins. What are they good for?

I hate the @webafrica WhatsApp service so much. Entirely impossible to report service outage after hours. Really poor.

Having a bit of a geeky morning. Fiddled with @EskomSePush's API and discovered @wernerhp's HACs integration to @home_assistant... I now have an automation to check my inverter battery levels and give them a quick 60 min grid charge if they're below 40%. Othwerise, use solar.

How is it that @MTNza allows for phishing messages to be sent from "no number"? Can't block, can't report... The link leads to a fake post office website that asks for personal info and, I assume, payment for customs fees or something.

These things have to be factored in to her decision.
Be fair to Liz Truss. A Prime Minister cannot resign after 42 days. It has to be 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67 etc

I miss my days in the IT department, but also, I don't.
I'm sorry to report that working in Security is less "bleeding-edge malware research" and more "project manager for people who don't report to you."

Just sensible. Love this.
"In what world are you cancelled? I think the word is the wrong word. I think the word should be accountability." Graham Norton criticises John Cleese and tells #TimesRadio that cancel culture isn't real. @mariellaf1

I'm no design expert, but if it weren't for the colours, I'd be lost. "Tree" is just not the first thing that comes to mind. And at least it's a touch more interesting than @Absa's circle.
