Robotkots.nl: Deny-list and settings Dutch CoronaCheck Covid-19 QR code status app (by Joost Schellevis: @Schellevis)

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/11/15

Covid-19 QR codes blocked by the Dutch app are at [Wayback/Archive] Robotkots.nl (because QR codes are like robot vomit: [Archive] Alexander Klöpping on Twitter: “QR-codes zien eruit als robotkots. Dat is gewoon een feit.”)

This site used to be [Wayback] ctb.schellevis.net but has been redirected to Robotkots.nl for about a week.

Older versions of this site referred to the tests and vaccins by their code names, but now it uses more readable names, so I made a translation table:

[W/A] links Code name -> “Readable” name
[Wayback/Archive] LP217198-3 -> antigeen
[Wayback/Archive] LP6464-4 -> PCR
[Wayback/Archive] EU/1/20/1528 -> Comirnaty (BioNTech/Pfizer)
[Wayback/Archive] EU/1/20/1507 -> Spikevax (Moderna)
[Wayback/Archive] Vaxzevria (AstraZeneca)
[Wayback/Archive] EU/1/20/1525 -> Janssen
[Wayback/Archive] Covishield (Indiase versie Vaxzevria)
[Wayback/Archive] BBIBP-CorV -> BIBP (Sinopharm)
[Wayback/Archive] CoronaVac -> CoronaVac
[Wayback/Archive] Covaxin -> Covaxin

Most of the things you eat or use have to do with corn

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/11/15

Most important parts of the below Twitter thread:

  • Corn is not a _food_.
  • Corn is a _platform_.

Follow the thread using this tweet:

[WayBack/Archive.is] SwiftOnSecurity on Twitter: “You are slowly realizing it has literally been years, maybe decades, since you ate any meal made without corn.” (2020 capture of the thread)

Drawing with nice handwriting

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/11/10

Did you also wonder about the nice handwriting in the diagrams of yesterday’s post @adamsand0r drew up a few sketches of design decisions needed to be taken when building a #gitops-based CD pipeline « The Wiert Corner – irregular stream of stuff?

I did too.

They are from [Archive.is] Excalidraw | Hand-drawn look & feel • Collaborative • Secure, with source code at [Archive.is] GitHub – excalidraw/excalidraw: Virtual whiteboard for sketching hand-drawn like diagrams.

Corona testlocaties; testen zonder afspraak in de coronatestbus – GGD Amsterdam

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/11/08

Voor mijn linkarchief:

NB: Testen zonder afspraak kan sowieso op de XL teststraat op de Loevensteinse Randweg 110 te Schiphol.

Edit 20211119: de communicatie was kennelijk niet zo helder voor testen zonder afspraak (:

Aangifte erfbelasting 2021 (pdf)

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/11/01

Voor mijn linkarchief, want ik moet indienen de [Wayback/Archive.is] Aangifte erfbelasting 2021 (pdf):

Downloaden

De meeste mensen doen online aangifte erfbelasting

Online aangifte doen op Mijn Belastingdienst heeft veel voordelen. U kunt:
  • gegevens invullen voor meerdere erfgenamen
  • meerdere onroerende zaken, bankrekeningen of leningen invullen
  • meteen zien welke vragen voor u van belang zijn
  • uw gegevens tussendoor opslaan
    Een andere dag verder? Geen probleem. Alles wordt bewaard.

Retouradres

Stuur het ingevulde en ondertekende formulier naar:

Belastingdienst/kantoor Eindhoven
Antwoordnummer 14660
5600 WK  Eindhoven

Online zit er waarschijnlijk niet in, want rondje rechtbank vanwege curatele.

During next night, it is time to move the clock, hopefully for the last time

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/10/30

Wasn’t the European Union going to stop moving clocks twice a year? Yup, as of it 2021 it should have stopped with the [Wayback] Seasonal clock change in the EU | Mobility and Transport.

But then Brexit came along, followed by Covid-19, and earlier 2021, this happened: [Wayback] Clock stops on EU plan to scrap daylight savings time

Contentious move to abolish mandatory seasonal clock changes ‘not top priority now’

So tomorrow it is winter time again, and we need to move the clock, hopefully for the last time, but  hopefully not like in the mirror of the Dutch comic DirkJan – Wikipedia by [WayBackAnnelies Hofstede on Twitter: “… “, which is done transitioning to Winter time – Wikipedia:

This is the original summer time version of the DirkJan comic:

Background information and similar comics are at Likely the end of a tradition… ᴊᴏᴏsᴛ su Twitter: “Dear Mr. Juncker, you may not know this but here in Holland we have Dirk-Jan and it is tradition to read this comic twice a year don’t take this away from us it’s the only non-racist tradition we have!!!! Please!!!!!…”.

Rebrickable (@Rebrickable) | lets you easily find official or custom sets you can build using your existing LEGO sets and provides all building instructions

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/10/29

stupid project I’ve thought about making for years:
You go through and index your lego box and enter in which bricks you have, and it calculates which sets you probably had.
it’s basically a big nostalgia tool for all us nerds in our 30s who have those few distinctive parts but can’t remember which set they got them in because they were only 5 at the time.
Thanks to @ProfBrickkeeper I now know that this pretty much already exists:
twitter.com/Rebrickable
you tell it what pieces you have and it finds official or unofficial sets you can build with them.

Neat!

I don’t know if it can do near-matches (like “you have 98% of the pieces you need for this set”) because you may have lost some parts, but it’s definitely a big step towards what I was wanting

[WayBack] Rebrickable (@Rebrickable) | lets you easily find official or custom sets you can build using your existing LEGO sets and provides all building instructions:

  • [WayBack] Rebrickable | Rebrickable – Build with LEGO

    Combine your old LEGO® to build new creations

    What can you build?

  • [WayBack] About Rebrickable | Rebrickable – Build with LEGO

    What is Rebrickable?

    Rebrickable will show you which LEGO sets you can build from the sets and parts you already own. You can choose from official LEGO sets or thousands of MOCs (My Own Creations) submitted by hundreds of designers. All MOCs include building instructions and full parts lists.

    I HAVE THIS

    +

    AND A BUNCH OF THESE

    =

    I CAN BUILD THIS, YAY!

    Unless you have a LOT of sets, you will usually be missing a few pieces. In these cases Rebrickable will show you exactly what you are missing and even provide suggested sets that you could buy which will get you those pieces – effectively showing you how to buy two sets for the price of one!
