The gist of it seems to be that for some reason number 4 engine started to produce full thrust with the thrust lever at maximum power after landing and no one noticed. Interestingly, the thrust reverser on that engine was inoperative that day (MEL allows dispatching with that fault).

Pilot error? They had to use a non-normal procedure because of the broken thrust reverser and messed it up and the number 4 thrust lever was never brought to idle? That would make sense but doesn't explain how the thrust lever ends up at maximum power after that.

New thing from neal.fun. I got stuck at the rhythm game (level 47) so apparently I'm a robot..

Further notes about Adam + Furry over the years:

• when asked The "What animal would you be?" Question: "Without a doubt my fursona is a lion."
• knew the word "fursuit" while repairing a Totoro costume
• Maker and a technologist for 30+ years in the San Francisco Bay Area, worked at ILM, has been to dozens of cosplay conventions, and his dad was a cartoonist. Ain't no way he didn't know :P

From today until March 15, 2026, the maximum lifetime for a TLS certificate is 398 days.

As of March 15, 2026, the maximum lifetime for a TLS certificate will be 200 days.

As of March 15, 2027, the maximum lifetime for a TLS certificate will be 100 days.

As of March 15, 2029, the maximum lifetime for a TLS certificate will be 47 days.

What's everyone's opinion on this? I think from a security standpoint their reasoning is valid and in many cases it's very easy to automate the renewal with ACME or something else. But there's likely gonna be legacy stuff still around in 2029 that won't be easy to automate.

Finland headed to the polls on Sunday to elect thousands of councillors in a range of local and regional bodies.

The Social Democrats took a big win in the municipal elections, taking nearly one in four votes nationwide to push the National Coalition Party of Prime Minister Petteri Orpo into second place.

In the county council elections, for 21 regional bodies that arrange social and healthcare outside Helsinki, the SDP also topped the poll. The Centre Party recorded a good result in its rural heartlands to secure third spot.

Government parties did poorly, with all but the NCP losing support compared to the previous municipal elections in 2021. Turnout in the municipal election was 54.2 percent, while the county elections saw 51.7 percent of eligible voters cast their ballots.

The dual vote for municipal and county councils caused logistical issues for election officials, with counting slower than usual for Finland, where large numbers vote in advance and results are usually clear within a couple of hours of polls closing.

The Finns Party saw support collapse compared to the last municipal election, with the party nearly halving its vote from four years ago. They lost support in several towns that are seeing hospital services cut back as part of the central government's savings drive.
