I am not exaggerating this:

I created a new hostname in DNS, then added it to my existing webserver config.

It was online for 3 seconds – 3! – before getting a 404 request for /.git/config.

If you’re relying on obscurity to protect your services, get that right out your fool head today. You have about 3 seconds to get your act together.

In the time it took me to type this, I got another 62 requests:

     30 "/"
      3 "/.git/config"
      2 "/.vscode/sftp.json"
      2 "/v2/_catalog"

Justice Department takes 'major step' toward rescheduling marijuana:

The Justice Department took a significant step toward rescheduling marijuana Thursday, formalizing its process to reclassify the drug as lower-risk and remove it from a category in which it has been treated as more dangerous than fentanyl and meth.

[...]

“Look folks, no one should be in jail for merely using or possessing marijuana. Period,” Biden said in Thursday’s video, his third time speaking extensively on the topic since his directive two years ago.

At last. Let’s put an end to this nonsense.

I have an IKEA Dirigera hub connected to my HomeKit setup. I also have a bunch of Nanoleaf Matter A19 bulbs in my house. I bought a new $8 IKEA Vallhorn motion sensor, paired it with the Dirigera, then set up a HomeKit automation to control my living room lights. It worked right on the first try. Yay, compatibility!

Old computer ads are something else.

Python 3.13 is removing more Amiga “dead batteries” modules, like chunk:

The chunk module provides support for reading and writing Electronic Arts’ Interchange File Format. IFF is an old audio file format originally introduced for Commodore and Amiga. The format is no longer relevant.

I’m sure that’s the right thing to do. It still saddens me.

We bought a flower kit from Costco. It had some potting soil, pre-planted seeds, and a pot — just add water. It looked fun and easy.

That thing delivered. Wow, it delivered. It’s thick with new growth and buds.

I lost my Diablo 4 level 71 hardcore rogue today. Although I was momentarily bummed, I feel good that I got my first ever hardcore D4 character that high.

And no, it wasn’t to a Butcher. I took 6 of them down before the end.

My buddy picked us all up to go rollin’.

How I’m working right now. I couldn’t move if I had to.

I’m dying to know the story here.
