  • Are you in northern or western Europe? As I discovered when I moved to the UK, it’s virtually impossible to get stone fruit that doesn’t require a hammer and chisel, and are crunchy like apples. 😬

    Elsewhere in the world, they’re juicy, soft and prone to spraying everywhere. Which I think is the intended audience of this strip.

    No idea what Toy Story 25 nor the Odyssey film is like, but if the latter is even remotely close to a good translation of the original, it’s going to be amazing.

    Finished Emily Wilson’s translation of the Odyssey recently and loved it. Just in case, y’know, you want to read something older than the country you happen to live in… 😄












  • This type of malarkey exploded in popularity in the UK during COVID, mostly due to chains trying to make money from data during tough times.

    Most of the time was just a multi-megabyte PDF to download (with a double digit percentage of it being outdated) and everybody hated it.

    Some still insist on it and wonder why they’re going bankrupt. But if there’s one thing the British hospitality industry does well, it’s… not hospitality. At least not when combined with technology.



  • I’m not familiar with what’s been said or done regarding bots, but I’d be surprised if they were planning to shutdown the self-hosting part? But I can see how they might shutdown the free cloud auth aspect.

    As RD consists of the server/client software and the authentication software, the latter is also made available online to all with no reliability promises. But there’s nothing stopping people from hosting both parts locally, and is how I implemented it. No traffic to third parties, etc.

    Can’t advise on domain-based setup, as I’ve not tried it, but depending on how you’re planning to use it, there may be no need for a domain. I only used mine locally (or via WireGuard when outside), with hbbr and hbbs hosted in Docker on my NAS, and it worked fine with my mobile devices and PCs.
