Pippin Inside™ (@[email protected])

@PicsDaGoat @VolfMech @Evilsquirrel123 Yep, that's my doggy Kelsey in pic number 4. He's old and doesn't get out very often now, but he's still mine. :>

@BradHound Thank you :]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO @pippin!! *Squeezes you tight* ❤️🤗🤟🙌🥳🎂🎉🎈🎁🎶😁

@DHWinterWolf Thank you :}

@aatheus Sadly, it's not the fees that are the problem: confuzzled.org.uk/2022/09/13/new…

I mean, I understand that there are fees. I'm happy to pay a processing fee to help defray it. Heck, my county charges 3% to process my property tax via credit charge. Still cheaper than the wire fee to send "only" 500 GBP

*grumbles* @cfconvention is making it hard for non-UK folk to pay. No credit card processor. HSBC over the counter payment is UK-only. Only other option is a US$45 international wire fee. Credit card processor for 2024 please?

@spandexraccoon But actually, having just looked I find there are 2 sites: zentaizentai.com and zentai-zentai.com! Different companies maybe! One seems to start secure but go insecure when you navigate around it, the other starts insecure and goes secure when you navigate... weird.

@spandexraccoon (Oops, looks like you don't follow my other account so I'll repeat the reply here!) Looks like they don't have an http→https redirect set up. If you manually add the https:// that seems to work.

@feed43 FYI, the certificate for node2.feed43.com has expired.

@BluDragonGal The one with the clipboard doesn't *look* scared and confused but I'll take your word for it. The one with the mask... an unusual look for a camp councelor, but I'm sure she's just looking out for the kids!

@BluDragonGal Walking with the Enemy? (Might be too recent?)

@zen_fur Oh no, secret identity rumbled! 😲 😂

@pippin, is this you at #confuzzled2022?

Hmm. Should I start using this account again? I seem to have migrated almost entirely to my private account in the last few years.

@DHWinterWolf Thank you! It wasn't too bad :) (Sorry, notifications seem to be completely broken on this account now…)

@HMRCcustomers Thank you! That makes things a lot simpler than I was expecting. :-)

@pippin Hi, thanks for waiting. This would not be regarded as a change. You would change accounting period to 31 March but there would be no overlap. Suchona

@HMRCcustomers Wanting to change accounting date from 5 April to 31 March: HS222 sec 20 says I can treat it as a change to 5 April - does that mean I can treat it as not being a change? Would I have a slightly short basis period, or an overlap, or basis period to 5 April? Thanks!

@Vulotaur It was on my private account @PippinTheFloofy - do follow if you like :) I hardly use this one any more, to be honest...

@pippin huff huff? So I cannot see your replies? Hmmmhuff

@DHWinterWolf Ooh, thank you, I did! :)

@leinir Ooh, I found this: store.vikings.net/libre-friendly… Interesting!

@pippin send them a poke, they may very well not appreciate that there is a market in those for them :)

So is it even possible any more to buy a computer that doesn't have a potentially insecure, highly proprietary management controller integrated into the CPU which you can't disable without bricking the whole machine and which the vendor won't give you any access to whatsoever?

@leinir Aha, they are on twitter. Hi @Puri_sm! Any chance you might do servers someday?

@chaz_6 Yeah, looks like there's practically nothing in the mainstream off the shelf area. What started (I think) with phones and their baseband processors has infected computers too. I think even AWS has had to build their own custom stuff (Graviton/Nitro) to get away from it. Oh well.

@pippin Right now the closes you can get is RISC-V, e.g. abopen.com/news/building-…
