#3060 Omniroll
It seems wrong that Fruit by the Foot is only sold by weight or by number of rolls.

I have info on a USB, a PC and now a cloud. The USB is my working base. I udate files on there daily. Is there a way to sync a USB to a cloud? With PC when I copy-paste it is mostly OK as I get the "this file already exists do you want to override it" message, but is there a sync? Cloud is in 2 places, KDrive (infomaniak) and Filen. #BackUp #Cloud #DataSync #Question
Swear words and AI.
So I like LLMs for silly things...
I have a great Boss and our work does these little shout-out awards. We are both potty mouths and enjoy using the word cunt a lot. I am Australian so he is indeed a great cunt. A term of endearment. So, I asked ChatGPT to write a message that had the word hidden in it. It refused. Lama (Meta's AI) did it for me but then after-school-specialed me! #LLM #AI #Swearing

🔓 No More End-to-End Encryption for iCloud in the UK!
#Apple halts Advanced Data Protection under government pressure. Your iCloud files? No longer fully encrypted.
🔐 Take back control – encrypt your files before uploading! Cryptomator keeps your data private, no matter what Big Tech decides.

Post-holidays, back-to-work sads...
At least I don't have "the fear" of work this term.
I have looked at OSM and although it is a good map alternate, I need live traffic. I can't seem to find a privacy friendly option. Suggestions? #Privacy #Maps #deGoogle #GoogleMaps
Last night's meal (pork Pad Kra Pao) was so spicy I could not finish it. I am not a chilli lightweight, and so far no local food in Thailand has bested me. This one though, felt the stomach stabs for an hour afterwards. 10/10 tasty before my mouth was too numb though! #Thailand #Food #Spicy #PadKraPao

Addicted to this Korean spicy chicken sauce. So far I have ised it on chicken, tofu, eggplant, eggs on rice, cauliflower and dumplings..
I have a Xiaomi phone. When people try to call me with Signal or WhatsApp about 80% of the time the call does not come through and when I next look at my call there is a missed call message. I have my phone on loud, notifications on. I could be holding my phone and typing this post and have a missed call. Any ideas? Really frustrating. #SignalApp #WhatsApp #MissedCalls #Android #Xiaomi
Is it just me, or has "English (UK)" disappeared as an option in the languages for Google Maps?
