Full time IT manager/sysadmin. Part time PC gamer. I travel a lot, visit theme parks, and ride roller coasters. Sometimes I take photographs along the way, many of which can be found at mouseat.co.ukhttps://bsky.app/profile/mouseat.co.ukhttps://bsky.app/profile/mouseat.co.uk/post/3m5qjc6wh3c2jLast night I got to see The Offspring live. That’s one of my last early musical influences ticked off the bucket list. They put on a solid show, with an awesome setlist. Plus, I got to see and hear them cover Hey Jude. It worked a lot better than you might have expect.16 Nov 2025 10:37 +0000at://did:plc:obav3zvqm6u4ecezvmuiips4/app.bsky.feed.post/3m5qjc6wh3c2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/mouseat.co.uk/post/3lynmcyxjrs2pI’m somewhat bemused and irritated by the number of large software or service providers that are surprised by the fact that users email addresses do sometimes need to change. And that said change inevitably ends up breaking things.12 Sep 2025 15:47 +0000at://did:plc:obav3zvqm6u4ecezvmuiips4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lynmcyxjrs2phttps://bsky.app/profile/mouseat.co.uk/post/3lhh5yhzzvs2vRPG logic I can get behind [contains quote post or other embedded content]05 Feb 2025 18:06 +0000at://did:plc:obav3zvqm6u4ecezvmuiips4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lhh5yhzzvs2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/mouseat.co.uk/post/3lc3rdypsu223Conventional wisdom is that whenever there’s an obscure IT problem, the root cause is always DNS. Today, the problem was not DNS. Today, the problem was expired certificates in really obscure places. Cue the grumbling.29 Nov 2024 14:15 +0000at://did:plc:obav3zvqm6u4ecezvmuiips4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lc3rdypsu223https://bsky.app/profile/mouseat.co.uk/post/3lb2mmfyz4c2dTheme park community intro post!

People I know are migrating over, the theme park community seems to be establishing itself on here, and I’ve spotted some familiar names from Mastodon. Things are looking up.15 Nov 2024 20:51 +0000at://did:plc:obav3zvqm6u4ecezvmuiips4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lazaxkpqts27https://bsky.app/profile/mouseat.co.uk/post/3la32wr6tpw22I'm mostly lurking here for the time being, until Bluesky reaches critical mass. It's good to see it's getting there. In the meantime, I tend to read a lot more than I post, unless I have something to bring to a conversation, so don't expect to see much activity from me for the time being.03 Nov 2024 20:43 +0000at://did:plc:obav3zvqm6u4ecezvmuiips4/app.bsky.feed.post/3la32wr6tpw22
