Earlier there was a Redpoll on the bird feeder, a first for us here.

Sitting quietly and Bluesky decided I had 30+ unread notifications. Oddly familiar notifications that I pretended to read for the first time.

So you're a young animator with mad skills about to do your first freelance commission. Do yourself a huge favour and get a contract that sets out the scope of work and agreed payment terms. It may seem big and scary but remember that this is to protect both parties involved. That means you.

Hmmm, I've just noticed that I can't see the 99.4MHz Croydon FM transmitter, not even slightly, it used to be stronger than 97.8MHz here but now I can only hear the Radio 1 region on 99.4MHz.

Flex FM is broadcasting white noise, in stereo, presumably it's the noise of their studio gear pumped up by their overly hot audio processing chain configuration. No programme though. Odd how this keeps happening.

Just thought about learning Rust, but apparently the preferred installer is to pipe curl to the shell on my mac, with some offline options for people who might think that's a bad idea. That's it, a first impression that doesn't fill me with expectations of sane choices within.

Facebook showed me a post from Johnny Hates Jazz where it's explained that the song was originally based on This is Not America and now it seems obvious, even though it isn't obvious. Tangentially, I rather like the cold, autotuned Claudia Brücken version of This is Not America.

Paper cuts are so ridiculous. I feel as if I might lose that finger…
