sounds like the web is about to get a lot more annoying to use for #grapheneos users and others using #android devices with """compromised integrity""", people without smartphones, people using smartphones with other operating systems, etc.: https://support.google.com/recaptcha/answer/16609652

google's new "mobile reCAPTCHA verification" will require you to scan a QR code from either an iOS device with the reCAPTCHA app or an android device with up-to-date google play services.

Booking train tickets for a moderately complex 3-legged journey. Using the trainline app for the second leg and it gives me two options, one arriving at 1.30 in the morning the next day, and one at 5.30 in the morning.

I go "of course not, book earlier" and it says there is nothing available. WTF?

I break the journey myself into two chunks and of course it's all available and I can arrive where I need to be at a sensible 5.30pm. The same day.

Stupid bloody app.

One of the great things about getting the print version of TheOnion is the ads. Full page mock ads that are just… ouch.

hahaa! Successfully removed all IR and UV filters from my old Canon EOS 600D, I can do full spectrum, UV and IR photography now!

All of the following photos have been taken with a ~550nm+ lpf, meaning cutting everything under 550nm (blue, purple and uv) off. I love the vibrant pink foliage and dramatic turquoise skies #photography

Important rules for the "age verification" era of the internet that we're living in:

1. Do not do age verification.

2. If you have to do age verification, cheat. Do not under any circumstances give them your real ID.
