I got a Lenovo at work with Win 10 at it. Thinking about using it as my development machine for a while. At least until I get my mIRC scripts added to my dotfiles repository.

I'm playing this on an ec2 instance of $0.70/hr because I'm too lazy to torrent winxp

Google's 'dots don't count' in email addresses rule can be a pain. I recently got somebody else's email confirmation of a subscription to a fishing website, complete with their home address and t-shirt size.

I only have this person's postal address, so I ordered them a custom t-shirt printed with "I gave the wrong email address", gift-wrapped, with an explanatory message.

I hope they have a sense of humour. mastodon.social/media/emiPxLQi
