Saw this quote on a blog:

The discourse around this show is so weird. It’s either a masterpiece or a total slog.

What the show is is immaterial to the thought, which is that I wonder if the polarising posts occur more often because the more mundane ones don’t get written at all. It takes a certain emotional threshold to comment about something.

they scheduled a meeting with me to connect. the meeting was on ms teams. […] the meeting said something on my system was out of date. i installed the missing item as i presumed it was something to do with teams, and this was the RAT.

Ah, an interesting way to get someone to install something: throwing up an install prompt minutes before needing to join a meeting. Exploiting probably the most annoying aspect of video conferencing software.

Launching time.

One thing Merricks Beach has plenty of is black cockatoos. Here’s a small flock I saw preening while on a walk. It’s not a great photo — I was shooting into the sun — but I hope you can make out the highlights on their tails.
