Doing a quick UX/UI audit of a website for a client. And what can I say…… 🤔

Ping … hello? …… is this … the internet? 😁

… the fibre internet?

Glasfaser-News! ✨ Letzte Woche kamen doch tatsächlich (nach erneuten Telefonaten meinerseits) noch mal zwei Techniker bei uns vorbei um den Anschluss, der im Februar mit APL montiert wurde, endgültig zu aktivieren.

Sie stecken also ihr Modem an – es macht keinen Mucks. Auch nicht an einer anderen Steckdose, auch nicht mit einem anderen Netzteil.

„Wir kommen nächste Woche noch mal.”

Aber jetzt kommt’s: Heute waren sie dann tatsächlich noch mal da und … diesmal lief alles glatt. Der Glasfaser-Anschluss ist aktiviert! 🎉

Jetzt muss nur noch ich die Einrichtung mit meinem Modem abschließen. Das läuft sicher jetzt komplett problemlos durch … 🫣🤞

It seems that Windows 11 doesn't load the modifier key tables, so even though the shortcuts are exposed in the UI, they don't work. 😩

On the upside, a slightly quicker way to open a folder in Terminal is to type "wt" into the folder address bar, which is a bit less faffing about than going via the context menu at any rate.

Dear Fediverse, does anyone know why keyboard shortcuts that use Alt as the modifier in the Windows 11 right click/context menu might not be working?

For example Alt t is supposed to open Terminal on the current folder, and Alt o is supposed to open More options on the context menu, but neither seems to work.

Next year I’ll be celebrating 25 years ‘as Jamfactory’, as I first registered my personal portfolio domain of www.jam-factory.com in 2001. I’ve long wanted to make a hardback art book *and* a follow up to my ‘Do Fly’ book so I think I’m just gonna do it myself and see what happens! Watch this space!

Seeing the DFB-Pokal final through the refcam is such an amazing perspective. Great stuff! 👏

You might not know that migratory birds like Swifts and Starlings are in trouble in the UK because modern houses have nowhere for them to nest.

The solution is to include a single £35 "swift brick" in every new build (a hollow brick that creates a nesting spot).

The Labour Gov is blocking the proposal to mandate this, and I've just signed this petition to encourage them not to:
