#WalthamForest A man in his 60s is in a critical condition in hospital after a serious collision in #Walthamstow, east-London. Met Police say they were called at 5:09pm to Markhouse Rose, E17, following a collision involving a van and a pedestrian. No one has been arrested.

Primary school children made our visors so we could have eye protection. Ambulance staff yesterday given not a single mask or apron, so our ward donated to them.
It is quite frankly insulting to imply frontline staff are wasting PPE. There are horrific stories of NHS staff and care workers not having the equipment they need to keep them safe. The Government must act to ensure supplies are delivered. theguardian.com/society/2020…

Popped in to the new #RaspberryPi store in Cambridge. Let's remember. This is a high street store selling Linux machines for < £30, with big screens showing what you can do with code. I can't imagine what that would have meant to me as a kid.

TIL from @q3k and @marcan42: wget saves downloaded file's source URL (and sometimes referrer) in extended attributes. This includes the cases where the URL has a user/password in it 🙃 $ getfattr -d -m - test user.xdg.origin.url="https://user:[email protected]/"

Looks like Microsoft has a new Root Program for the Azure Front End. docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azu… It seems it consists of DigiCert, GlobalSign, and some Chinese CAs I have not heard of and can not find. It also seems there is no contact for details on how to get into this "short-list"
