Why do we call it "eating out" and not Hole Foods

I'm very much looking forward to this talk, it was awesome when I saw it at #oggcamp last year, and #WiTNotts is very fortunate to have Rachel Morgan-Trimmer speak!
Today I am mostly working on revising my talk "The Power of Change: Learning to Live as a Weirdo" so it works better as an online presentation. Sign up here: meetup.com/Women-In-Tech-β¦ On Zoom, obvs. For @WiT_Notts on 7 May.Rachel Morgan-Trimmer (@SparkleClass)Wed, 22 Apr 2020 13:16 +0000
I recently asked if anyone I knew had one of the new models but got no responses (via my blog, or Twitter).
I've got an XPS 13 9343 and love it - largely form factor, but also the 3K screen - and have been wondering about upgrading recently, in part due to USB-C and fingerprint sensor, not for any other reason.
According to the Arch Wiki entry for the new XPS it's mostly alright, but doesn't seem to have fingerprint support.
May be that it needs to get upstreamed by the folks at Ubuntu.
In case it's a point of interest, the highest-end one has a 4K screen (RRP Β£1768.00)
I'd say go for the slightly newer one, with the caveat that if you stick with the Ubuntu build it comes with, it'll probably be alright, but if you want to re-install/install a different OS, it'll likely not work as well, and may require a more up-to-date kernel - as I decided to use Arch at the time it meant I always had the latest kernels, so as they added support for the drivers upstream, I was getting them pretty quickly, whereas friends with non-cutting edge kernels didn't have as much luck.
I really do recommend Dell for the XPS based on my existing one, and would be very interested to see how you get on with it, if you do get it, so it can inform my decision to buy one while I'm in quarantine and don't need my laptop to be as functional as I would if I were travelling.
This really brightened up my day! β¨ Thank you @WiT_Notts @technottingham @anna_hax πMarcus Noble (@Marcus_Noble_)Wed, 22 Apr 2020 12:23 +0000

I'm so glad you've taken this position, GitHub! Since you have now decided that you care about the welfare of immigrants, stop working with ICE

Just copied a long URL from one laptop to another by sshing into a third machine, attaching a tmux, pasting the URL into the shell on one machine and copying it out on the other and surely there is a better way

I'm hoping that I'll keep a bit more on top of mentions not being sent, and may even look at scheduling a batch to re-process mentions that haven't sent (although I'm pretty sure I set up my Webmention processor to do that for me)

Yes it was a good chat! Thanks both for it, definitely some food for thought - especially around making folks more comfortable aware when it's their turn to speak!

If you ever feel dumb just remember that in the very early days of Monzo I once DDOS'd myself by pointing the entire Monzo platform at my phone and telling it to send push notifications as fast as it could. It never recovered after that.
