@simon I was doing some tests with chatgpt (following some examples you posted). I started off asking about Julie and other people who weren't quite as prominent as yourself, on the right is what I got for Natalie *pre-March-14 update* - then on the left is now 😕 (👋 to you both - hope you're both good too)

Finally sorted the *.jsbin.com ssl cert update that I have to do on a yearly basis.Thank old Rem from 2020 that decided it would be a good idea to fully document every single step.

@janhenckens often, but due to the nature of jsbin, I need the actual cert, it also needs to be a wildcard (which IIRC LE actually does these days), but I need to also manually sync the cert to AWS for static (again, it's jsbin's setup - not a fan and wanting to change for 5 years now)

Missed the Eurovision - without spoilers, do you have any specific recommendations of bits/songs/voting to watch?

@simon am I missing something or is it just not straightforward to put a 300mb sqlite db on S3 (or something) and then query from a lambda function?I'm looking at horse-shoeing-in the httpvfs method, but I thought I'd ask you first!

@simon yeah, didn't work. Or at least, not for the targets I wanted (specifically netlify). Deno module needs to write (even though it's only reading), and the node module binary isn't compatible (and the wasm port is apparently too slow). Painfully difficult if you want to use one of the "nice" hosting platforms.

I've accidentally been paying for a midjourney subscription for several months (after trying out to play with images with the kids).So now, I've started feeding spam email subject titles into it. Annoyingly I can't only generate 1 image, so I have to upscale the first one.Weird thread incoming…

"イオン銀行】お取引目的等の確認のお願い" (I love that this image absolutely doesn't match the translation in any way "AEON Bank] Request for confirmation of transaction purpose, etc.")

"Sehr geehrter Begünstigter" (kinda love that mid journey is going a bit ape shit over non-english)

A talk I'd love to see at #ffconf:AI: a cautionary tale, but is there real good to be had?And sorry chaps, I don't want it to be a white guy giving the talk (again). Love you, but let's make some space.

If anyone is looking for a Christmas present for an (oldie) loved one, or perhaps for yourself (something I tend to do these last few years) - I've got 5 or so Gameboys looking for homes - https://retrobyrem.uk/tag/ips/ (prefers UK buyers) (I do also have two GBAs, but just "enquire" to get photos and price)This is mine (pic) 😍

@simon there's literally no answer. I saw TBL speak only once and he said that DNS was one of the biggest failings (exactly because of "rental" vs. ownership). It's also exactly why I made https://unrot.link - there's no good solution.

This is bit of a stretch ask, and, possibly very vague, but - I've been trying (and struggling) to find potential speakers for #ffconf that can talk on the subject of "how to think critically / being sceptical".Ideally wanting UK based, but can stretch to Europe.Any suggestions?

@aral there's a good number of riddle-like bits in there, but - when you say "ones" - any chance of ellaborating? (I'm guessing you count yourself in that list, but curious who else you're including…)

FFS. Why, for me, does code take priority over getting to the gym?I'm stood at my kitchen worktop, coding and tinkering, stood entirely in my gym get-up saying "just this last change"… 🤦

Friends, I have £1,000 that I want to donate to a UK trans support charity.I've donated in the past, but I was hoping someone (with experience) could recommend a charity that they think would benefit from the donation (and helped you in some way).It's a single donation to make a greater impact.If you have any questions, please do ask me too (or DMs/email)
