From 12ft – Wikipedia:
On July 17, 2025, the News Media Alliance reported that it had taken down the website.
It’s impossible to enjoy the content of online media by paying (for instance because payment systems are not compatible, but also because those media often have region blocks), so this is to longer ladders (and understanding how ladders work):

Note that for removing the bullet-type, it does not matter if it is an ordered or unordered list.
list-style-type – CSS: Cascading Style Sheets | MDN
noneNo item marker is shown.
Adding the “list-style: none” CSS class to the unordered list (<ul>) or ordered list (<ol>) tag removes any bullet or number.<ul style="list-style: none;"> <li>List item with no bullet</li> <li>Second item</li> </ul>
Via [Wayback/Archive] html list type none – Google Search.

Bij disruption (Hallo Uber, Amazon, Zorgcowboys!) komen de kosten uiteindelijk vrijwel altijd op de maatschappij terecht.
Ook nu weer: [Wayback/Archive] Bedrijf failliet: stalling deelscooters kost gemeente zeker zes ton
De gemeente Hollands Kroon dreigt voor ruim 600.000 euro het schip in te gaan door het ruimen van zo’n 4000 scooters van het failliete deelscooterbedrijf Go Sharing. De Noord-Hollandse gemeente probeert de schade te verhalen op het bedrijf. Maar omdat Go Sharing enkele malen van eigenaar wisselde en in november failliet ging, is de kans op succes gering.

Interesting read: there is even an API for it (which you need to be logged on for in order not to get a rate limit): [Wayback/Archive] python – Some gists on github have very many forks. How can I find the most recently active and/or heavily modified? – Stack Overflow
Thanks [Wayback/Archive] Michael Goldshteyn, [Wayback/Archive] rob006, [Wayback/Archive] Chankey Pathak and [Wayback/Archive] ikwyl6 for solving this both for gists and regular github repositories:

Any session by Kevlin is great, so this is definitely recommended watching: [Wayback/Archive] Structure and Interpretation of Test Cases • Kevlin Henney • GOTO 2022 – YouTube
Via [Wayback/Archive] Ifeora Okechukwu on Twitter: “On the structure and interpretation of test cases: by @KevlinHenney Awesome talk!!! “.
A few takeaways:
The first two and last two sound similar. They aren’t.

I do like the [Wayback/Archive] IEC 60320 (IEC 320) Reference Chart – IEC 60320 Connectors & Plugs | StayOnline ¹, but it lacks combo C3/C4 plug/inlet:
C3 C4 From: IEC 60320 – Wikipedia (and yes: I had an old radio in my youth requiring this plug)
I bumped into the reference chart because I forgot the search term IEC 60320, and therefore searching my earlier blog posts on it ².
I did remember C13/C14 (normal appliance couplers) and C19/C20 (higher power device couplers), so I used the query [Wayback/Archive] c20 c19 amperage – Google Search giving me this table: Read the rest of this entry »

I totally agree with [Wayback/Archive] Dustin (BusySignal) on Twitter: “when did the disk utility rufus become so awesome?” as Rufus 3.20 has added these Windows User Experience features when creating bootable Windows installation media:
- Remove requirement for 4GB+ RAM, Secure Boot and TPM 2.0
- Remove requirement for an online Microsoft account
- Disable data collection (Skip privacy questions)
- Set a local account using the same name as this user’s
- Set regional options using the same values as this user’s
So below are some links explaining more about this feature (and how it is implemented).

TL;DR: avoid Digitus AC fans, but use DC case fans with built-in/external temperature controller plus 12V or USB-step-up power supply and optionally fan grilles/meshes.
A while ago, I bought a 7U shallow 19-inch rack cabinet to house some of our network equipment for the offices and other rooms at the top floor: [Wayback/Archive] DIGITUS Professional Network Wall Housing – Soho Wall Cabinet: Amazon.de: Computer & Accessories
Since it was to be mounted in the boiler room, which is on the top floor under a flat roof, it would get warm so I wanted fans installed in it under or over the air vents in the housing (the cabinet is delivered as flat-pack with parts pictured below and requires about half an hour assembly time):

Currently, the Wayback Machine is having issues from The Netherlands, but hopefully their archivals appear to be complete when the Wayback Machine gets fully up again.
