It is, and I usually can't reach it, it's just today that I can because I'm sick 🤷

So today I'm sick and I now manage to croak out a Bb1 (assuming my piano is tuned correctly, which given we moved recently is not guaranteed).
It sounds pretty awesome, even though I need to occasionally search for the right note when it gets rather low

Toch wel, maar levering gebeurt hier niet via de post. Ofwel via een koeriersdienst (DHL express oid), ofwel via takealot.com, vergelijkbaar met bol.com, die hun eigen leverdienst hebben.
Is vooral lastig als je iets vanuit het buitenland bestelt en expliciet vraagt om het via een koeriersdienst te doen en ze doen dat dan niet want 'het is te duur', wat wel een paar keer gebeurd is, maar voor de rest...

Well they had to have passport control because Brexit, so it wasn't a very big leap anymore.
But really, taking an explosive device large enough to rip a small hole in the fuselage is enough to kill everyone on an aeroplane, but will only kill yourself on a train. To have something that will create an explosion large enough to kill everyone on the train, all you need is a geiger counter...

Dat was snel! Mijn post heeft een gemiddelde (!) vertraging van ongeveer 3 maanden.
Dat is dan ook niet in België... https://www.postoffice.co.za/ 😉

That depends on where you are.
I read a blog post of someone once who got a 25Gbit line for his home Internet connection in Switzerland. I was like, why on earth would you do that... until I discovered that the price of that connection was about the same as the 100Mbit line I had at my place in South Africa at the time, with a 1Gbit line being more than double that price.
I wouldn't Colo in Switzerland. I might in SA.

I love the concept and would like to get myself one.
However, their chosen license, CC by-nc-sa, is not open source, as the non commercial parts of that license fails the OSD's 'no discrimination against fields of endeavour' requirement.

Oh you can totally do that if you want to and your home Internet connection can carry the load. I've done this myself and there's nothing wrong with it.
But there are cases where that isn't enough, or where a home Internet connection of sufficient speed is prohibitively expensive.

I would say it depends on your definition though.
I used to rent 1U plus power and network in a rack on a single rented tile that was part of a rented room in a data center.
The owners of the data center rented out rooms, network, and power, and left the rest to tenants.
I see nothing wrong with such a data center. And they still exist; I know of at least one in the neighbourhood of the place that I moved out of a few months ago.

Open source maintainers at profitable companies: stop asking permission to fix what your employer already depends on.
No paperwork. No programme. No manager’s blessing. Just maintain it on the clock.
My wife sent me this. Excellent. (No idea where it came from)
Error: No such option: --repo-url (Possible options: --repo-branch, --repo-type, --repository-url)

I agree there's scope for tools that run on your system. That scope can be achieved if you make things optional.
I don't agree there's scope in what a developer is or isn't allowed to develop. You're not anyone's boss.
As for opt out, you forget that distributions have a faaaar larger influence on what happens to be installed on your system by default then whatever the upstream developers decide to put out there.

Finished a second read of @scalzi 's 'the shattering peace', and only now do I realise that the colony actually *isn't* locked away in a separate universe forever...
