What an awful headline for this story. She's a journalist and presenter on the Australian show WTFAQ. As an investigation for the show she decided to put the restrictions on baby names to the test. Based on the rules she expected the name to be rejected, but it was permitted and a birth certificate was issued. In her journalist capacity she contacted the department of births, deaths and marriages and got a statement from them and they agreed that the issue was an oversight, and they offered to change the name. So in reality the exact opposite to "promoting government response" occurred.

If there's one good thing that Back 4 Blood did, it's remind me how good Left 4 Dead was, so I went and played that instead.

Make sure there's no lint and dust compacted in the bottom of the port if you haven't already. It isn't always entirely obvious but it can affect both lightning and USB-C and you can usually get it out with some careful use of a sewing needle.

I'm absolutely still using teamspeak. Nice and light, and it let's us run a soundboard plugin that let's you have unlimited length audio clips. I just wish they'd update the plugin to support the 64-bit version.

We have mandatory voting in Australia. It's "enforced" by a AU$20 fine. Not really a true punishment, more like a nudge. It's more of a societal understanding here, you turn up to a polling place as a civil duty. You can donkey vote if you want, you can draw a cock on the ballot form and invalidate it, doesn't matter. As long as you got your name crossed off, and most importantly had the opportunity to vote, then you're clear. I wouldn't have it any other way, it means that there can't be changes to dissuade people from voting, and politicians don't resort to wildly populist policies to try and encourage people to come out to vote. Also helps that federal elections always occur on a Saturday, and employers are required to give time off in order to vote.

2FA is still available in the free tier, it's just limited to TOTP and email code based 2FA. The paid teirs unlock additional methods like FIDO2 and yubikey protocols. Even if you don't use the advanced 2FA methods or any of the other benefits, it's still good to throw them a little money to keep them running.

I'm definitely going to be an outlier here, but I still use an ipod nano for my day to day podcast listening while commuting. But sometimes if love to be able to just unplug my earpods from my nano and plug it into my phone to watch a video or something. Can't do that now unless I dig into my bag for a dongle.

My oven has capacitive touch buttons for the clock and timer. They're really sensitive, and they sometimes trigger even for skin underneath clothing. So sometines when I lean against it while using the stove top, I accidentally set a timer with my penis.

It's super nerdy and technical, lord knows I probably don't understand a good half of what he talks about, but CuriousMarc's channel. I don't think I've been as fascinated about anything more than his ongoing series to get the Apollo Guidance Computer and other Apollo systems from the original moon missions working again.

From the thumbnail I thought it was a hotdog inside a golden gaytime.

Nice write up.

Does it have some sort of always-on display mode, and if so any idea what it does to the battery life?

Is Phlox perhaps Neelix enough?

Certain Samsung's have Hiya integration for this kind of thing. In the dialler settings there might be an option for "Caller ID and Spam Protection".

Little Sickness. Disturbed + Of monsters and men.

Is it just me or do neither ISO8601 nor RFC3339 contain any timestamp formats that are windows file system compliant? There doesn't seem to be a time format that doesn't contain a colon.

I think of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar when I think of a copilot. Sorry... I mean Rodger Murdoch

I'm pretty new to all this, but I'm assuming that subscriptions are instance account specific. If there was a way to sync subscriptions between accounts in different instances then that would be good, but I'm finding that without subscriptions the default feeds are kind of all over the place.
