JPEG XL? It’s 2026 and I’m still waiting for JPEG 2000 to become mainstream

Oh, I thought it stood for Fuck Off, Miserable Osborne

The only good use of AI would be to use the heat from its excessive power consumption to keep our sausage rolls warm

Hmm, doubt it’s for security. Seems more likely they’re looking for backdoors in order to spy on users. There are far too many governments desperate to backdoor encryption and messaging apps to trust any government’s stated intent when it comes to technology

Note that it was City of London Police involved. The City of London is quite distinct and different from the London that tourists know of. The City of London is owned by the corporations (mainly financial institutions) within its boundary, it is self-governing and has the right to set up it’s own police force which can take enforcement action in any part of the UK, not just the City of London. They are basically an enforcement arm for corporations and are very interested in things like enforcing intellectual property claims.

Ok, good first step. When do the prosecutions for physical abuse start?

That may well be the thing I’m looking for, thanks for the pointer!

You don’t understand because I didn’t state why 😅 I have enough time and energy to set up and manage containerised applications. 20 years ago I might have had the drive to set up a local dev version, manage the dependencies and set up local init scripts, but not anymore.

KDE Connect is a great idea, thanks!
