Whoa 😮😞 I'm really sorry to hear that.

I'm doing another ride for charity. This time 100km! Further than I've ever ridden in one hit. I'm sure it'll be fine. Yeah it'll be fine. I'll be fine. Today is dollar match day, so would love your support. fundraise.mater.org.au/fundraiser/d...

I've been sick and haven't worn a mask this regularly since, well you know. I forgot how much it sucks. But no way I'm getting a bunch of kids or their parents sick one week out from school holidays.

I wonder if there's anything on them...

What a great Black Mirror episode showing a thing that didn't happen right? It didn't happen because that would be horrific. Right? RIGHT?

Can you clarify what you mean by "delegate user"?

No, not worth it. Insurance paid out anyway so I'm only out of pocket by the excess.

Yes! Shoot me an email to damovisa at GitHub dot com with some details and I'll find the right person.

Look it crossed my mind. But no.
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me) reply parent
It's temping to go there myself but that's the kind of thing that would get me in more trouble than the person who stole stuff.
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me) reply parent
Fixing root cause is hard.
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me) reply parent
Yeah I agree.
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me) reply parent
Yeah agree. Escalating punishment? By the time you get caught for the 5th time you might have serious consequences. But then you should really go further back and look at social programmes and why stealing bikes for a living is a thing people might want or need to do.
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me) reply parent
I did everything I was supposed to as well. It was chained to a bike rack, in a secure garage, with a tracking device. I'll be keeping my new one inside my apartment.
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me) reply parent
Doesn't seem like the BEST reason to do nothing. And meanwhile insurance premiums increase because there have been thefts...
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me) reply parent
Update: I called the police and was told because it's a block of units they can't just knock on doors and accuse people. Fair enough. So... What if I went with you and got a more precise location? Madr the airtag make noise? ... no.
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me) reply parent
No apparently the airtag isn't accurate enough for a warrant and they can't just knock on doors. Offered to go with them and make it ping. The answer was no. No reason, just no.
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me) reply parent
Lack of funding? Too hard? Laziness?
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me) reply parent
Yeah. Seems very much like a token effort.
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me) reply parent
"Current Status of report: Filed Pending Further Information - this means that all possible investigations have been completed at this time and the crime remains unsolved." 😐
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me)
Had a bike stolen but it had an airtag on it! 2 weeks later the airtag is still active at a very specific residential address. An address known by police and described as "a place a lot of bikes go to die".

Oh that bit is fine. It's just that avocados have about an 8min window when they're ripe and bananas speed that up.
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me)
I just put bananas next to avocados in my fruit bowl so I guess you could say I'm pretty brave.

I'm 100% down with this in pretty much whatever form it takes. I felt pressured to pay for the birdsite because of features, but I'll pay for this regardless.

Avoiding impersonation mainly. So I guess it's really more relevant for the bsky account with my handle... Other domains I own can't be taken.
Damian Brady (@damovisa.me) reply parent
I have one for one domain but I don't want to create a whole lot of accounts for my others.

Question for Bluesky experts... What's the best way to have aliases or otherwise register other handles/domains?
