So it seems Stuff are blocking ad blockers now, yay. I can block the overlay with uBlock but the page doesn't scroll which is sometimes an issue.

But TIL they are using a third party site for the quizzes, and you can pop out the embedded iFrame, change one parameter in the URL so it doesn't fill the whole page, and then it's much more pleasant on a distraction free page and no stuff header bar filling 1/3 of the page.

At the start of summer I began slowly exposing myself to sun. 10mins a day here n there increasing it. Now I'm pretty much immune to sun. I spent the whole day outside shirtless working in the garden and no sunburn. Im liking this new found super power.

Normally i never go outside in summer because if I spent 15mins I get burnt.

Last week we finally hit that sweet spot where all the ingredients of ratatouille become affordable, even aubergine, so I made one!

Ah, the taste of childhood. Back when in summer you could buy capsicums by the crate, and ratatouille was just a cheap way to make the kids eat plenty of veg.

Updating my flatmates PC BIOS so it can use a new CPU. 3 updates in and windows no longer boots. I guess my whole night is gonna be spent troubleshooting windows bullshit.
