I started a new series on Story Time With Finux, this one is about Tudor Britain and their impact on state surveillance.

Part 1, Henry VII secured his weak claim to the throne by building a surveillance state, using law, money, & propaganda to control the nobility.

If you’re wondering how my career move away from tech is going. Yesterday I couldn’t do my job, turning wood into sawdust, because I couldn’t get measurements I needed because Autodesk’s licensing servers are hosted in AWS…

Is it also recommending the trike races to you? Not quite as nuts, but same hills, faster speeds, way more people and better footage.

(In the past I too have disappeared down the hill bombing rabbit hole thanks to YouTube and ADHD)

The “games eventually stop running” line when they’re angling for switch 2 carts just being a license dongle is making my eye twitch.

How have YouTube completely overhauled the player UI but kept the horrendous pink tail on the play bar?

I saw this on the same shelf as a load of slop-labelled beer. Pretty much guaranteed my purchase. 🙌

The front of a beer can entitled "AI is killing art!". The image is a skull wearing sunglasses with a pencil and pen through it.

Sounds like you might also like The Cuckoo’s Egg by Cliff Stoll. Another well written autobiographical tale about a maths professor tracking down cyber criminals before there really was such a thing. I think I’m on my fourth or fifth copy because I keep giving them away.

Looking forward to it mate! Ligit looked for pt3 of nukes and spooks when you said you were already on with the next story thinking I missed it.

I’ve been reading them to the Kid for years, she stopped wanting mum to read to her two or three years ago, but discworld means I still get to read bedtime stories to a teen and I get to re experience them.

I’m going to be gutted when we get to the end of the series some time next year :(

So after a full rewrite and a lot of learning new skills, I've managed to release the first 2 part in the first ever episode of Story Time With Finux. Sorry for the supply teacher vibes, wow i underestimated how much i'd have to take on. But i think when the second episode will benefit from it

On a whim I checked the program and it’s actually got my name in it! Didn’t expect that. Probably should have.

I’m just trying to find one that I could make a decent pun about owning a bar in Bonn.

Bonn Jovi seems a bit too on the nose though.
