Mumbling nerd, career button-presser, occasional parrot-worrier and myopic beard-owner. May contain traces of apathy and pictures of critters.

30 years ago, this antagonistic Nintendo ad appeared in UK SEGA mags of the era. While it felt like a dagger to the heart for SEGA fans, it was ultimately bollocks. Street Fighter II: Special Champion Edition hit the Mega Drive a year later. But it was a very long year for sure.

Today is my 73nd birthday, meaning I’m now 72 years old. I have to count 0 as a birthday too. 72 is a poetic number. 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 (2 ^ 3) * (3 ^ 2) Actually, the Earth is in the same position around the sun as when I was born, tomorrow, August 12. See you next year!

I had to look up Beyonce. It would appear that it's the point at which an object displaces its own mass in a liquid. Now I'm more confused...
Today's my first time seeing what ansible tries to do to a password that looks like a jinja macro. It's like something out of a saw sequel.
I call this one "The new dog bed: a story in three parts":
