great, now I'm the sole responsible for PCI DSS attestation. more forms to fill and policies to write, yay

hello fellow Euros! did you see that thing that Donald J Trump did? haha that was cringe or what. I'm shocked that Donald J Trump would stoop that low. nothing like the sophistication of European civilisation, right Euros? so I know everyone is going to buy European and boycott the amis and everything so hey I had this idea. you know what the Trump people really like? bashing transgenders and immigrants. so I was thinking, why don't we boycott on that too. haha that would troll the Americans wouldn't it, suddenly make EU like, super pro transgenders and immigrants. USA deports record numbers, you take in record numbers. USA removes trans passports, you add non-binary recognition in all public spaces. USA forbids Spanish, you add interpreters to government departments. USA kidnaps trans kids, you give quick access to all surgeries. think about it, you would be able to act like you have a moral high ground for so much longer. make the EU like, the wokest woke to ever woke, wouldn't Trump be so angry lol. I know you hate immigrants as much as them but think of how much more superior and civilised you could feel like

Hannover may have nothing of interest but Hannover has given - beautiful cool dyke - sunlight - park - waking up by birds - did I mention the cool pretty dyke so as far as I specifically am concerned, I'm loving Hannover

wishing a rebellious women's day to everybody else who is also feeling like they don't qualify as sufficiently "women".

this is just in: ADHD girl progresses in her task significantly, thinks "phew I did well I have plenty of time", promptly gets distracted and now is late

- anyone with experience self-hosting either Keycloak or FusionAuth or another IAM provider? I'm looking especially for something to migrate away from AWS Cognito. Hosting anything in the USA not an option. - anyone using Cloud Foundry in recent times?I'm tempted to pick it instead of Kubernetes as if we pick Kubernetes I'll be the sole Kubernetes girl for the whole company and Kubernetes feels like… a lot. But since modern CF is, as I understand it, Kubernetes under the hood, my decades of experience with "one more layer of abstraction" tell me that the one more layer of abstraction will blow up on our face sooner or later. (I mean computing these days is already the JVM on Docker on Kubernetes on a VM on the someone else's cluster of servers on another someone's datacenter, when I still would rather be running our own dang daemons on bare metal…)

her: I don't get why they make Civ more "streamlined" every version. for me the micromanaging was the entire point... me: have you ever played #DwarfFortress her: I heard about it, but never tried it. me: it's the best videogame. there's really nothing like it. I mean no simulation comes even close. her: yes I dunno, I tried to get into it but it looks like a steep learning curve... me: oh yes totally. probably the steepest ever. not so much the difficulty but the sheer amount of things there is to learn about. I really cannot convey it to you. this game has just so much, stuff, in it. her: I guess I'd have to dedicate a few hours just to learn to play it... me: Hours? hah. a month or two. and you'll get addicted and time will stop having any meaning, so say goodbye to any reallife you thought you had. the clunky UI is the only thing between you and the temptation to live in the matrix, good thing it acts as a deterrent. her: (I thought you were trying to get me into that game...?) me: (must... resist... urge to... strike the earth...)

suddenly I realised that the kind of long toot I just wrote and constantly post here—that is, memories and experiences worded in a more literature-y way—is literally the Brazilian genre called "chronicle" (crônica). crônicas were one of many predecessors to blogs across the world; short-form writing in a personal voice, published daily in newspapere, eventually collected in "best of" anthologies. I grew up reading chronicles, and it never ocurred to me that I've been unconsciously imitating them daily for Gods know how many years
